Exclusive: The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is planning a large study into potential connections between vaccines and autism, two sources told Reuters, despite extensive scientific research that has disproven or failed to find evidence of such links reut.rs/4ivfaZA

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

I AM FORTY FUCKING FOUR I HAVE BEEN AN ADULT FOR DECADES DO YOU EVEN KNOW WHAT A MILLENNIAL IS

That felt loud for how short it was.

As someone who spends a lot time thinking about the values I want to teach my kid (besides PLEASE DON’T EAT DIRT), the thing I keep coming back to is this: I want him to believe that the strongest, bravest thing he can do is give a shit about other people—especially ones who aren’t like him at all.

we used to respect the computer

ANYWAY, did you know there's an extension you can put on Chrome that will connect with your local library system and when you go look at a book, say on AMZ, it will tell you if that book exists in the library system and if it's available? It's literally called Library Extension.

It's time for me to start my fundraising! As I have for the last several years, I'll be riding 150 miles to raise money for MS research, and I can use your help! If you can, please consider making a donation at events.nationalmssociety.org/index.cfm?fu... - THANK YOU!

TMS Vegas is happening at the end of April! Tickets and swag go live tomorrow morning. Excited to see a load of Morning Stream listeners this year. When tickets pop, it will show up at tms.vegas

Looks like Dark Horse Digital is closing shop 😔 We have until March 30 to download any books. They had all the previous Dragon Age & Mass Effect comics on there, so big heads up to fellow BioWare community friends who may have used this over the years

Quick Fix - Gator Days

Two positives I took away from watching Captain America was I liked the callbacks to some forgotten MCU films/storylines and seeing Harrison Ford with a mustache.

Cobra Kai was such a fun ride and I’m really glad with how it all finished. As a non-Karate Kid film watcher it amazed me how I got hooked but the only critique I came away with is the show needed more crane kick. 🥋

Another dataset I like is from the National Atmospheric Deposition Program, which has maps of the US that show we fixed the acid rain problem by implementing stricter emission controls on power plants. nadp.slh.wisc.edu/maps-data/nt...

everything I make time for atm needs to be bringing this energy

Egging a cybertruck is costly. Those eggs are expensive.

Not a good look for my company

New: DOGE's spending has been secret. No longer. My colleagues have uncovered it. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

So true -- "Tesla is in a precarious position. This is a case where buying choices can effectively communicate rage." Tesla's Q1 earnings will be telling (and not good.) Buy a Hyundai Ioniq 5, Kia EV6, or Ford Mustang Mach-E instead. slate.com/business/202...

School play gets canceled for "inappropriate content". In response students write [REDACTED], their own anti-censorship play skewering the school district, sells out performances, and ultimately takes gold at the Lenaea High School Theatre Festival. www.kqed.org/arts/1397192...

Trying not to just binge through the last Cobra Kai episodes and make them last (only seen two of the final five so far) but hard to avoid spoilers. 🙃

Finally saw Lightyear and I liked it. Sox was surprisingly fun, and I thought it was very much a Disney movie.

Watched Saturday Night and while I’d call myself a casual SNL watcher at best, this movie was really entertaining. I really enjoyed all of the portrayals and the fictional take on that first night.

Noting this bowl is a touch down. 🌎❤️ #Superman - only in theaters July 11

Costco was crazy this morning. Used to going early to try to beat the crowds but it felt like the holiday rush with the size of the line waiting for the place to open.

This profile has been scrubbed from the site. Rose Ferreira grew up without reliable electricity, immigrated to NY, then survived homelessness and cancer on her way to NASA. She was so moved by images from the Webb telescope she wept. This is what’s at stake web.archive.org/web/20231206...

This is why they're attacking science and education: if you can only win with disinformation, data become a threat.

Thru it all, we need to keep making each other laugh. As often as it makes sense. For some it’s all they have left.

Forgot to take a picture on the day but a fan of the decoration choices. 💯

This constantly gets brought up in response to AI criticism. No one objects to these applications. They object to the consumer facing dreck that's being marketed to us as groundbreaking and forced onto our devices.

Been trying like crazy to hit 20k subs on Youtube. If you are bored and have nothing else to do right this second, and have not done so already, I'd love it if you would. It's free! I get it if you don't wanna, but if you do, it's here: www.youtube.com/scottjohnson

Reminder: LA folks, come check out our LIVE podcast Monday! Will be doing segments with my pals, as well as an interview—and performance?!—with the Rams’ Kobie Turner. 100% of proceeds go to wildfire relief. Plus: free merch and snacks 🙌 Will also hang for pics after 🤗 Minapodlive.com

Comic up. "Oh Really...". I feel like 2nd panel is a lot of us. :) (archived on frogpants.club)

Just incase, a friend downloaded the CDC vaccine schedule for kids and adults and I put it in a dropbox folder here: www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/psiuq...

This one stung.

It bothers me to no end that I can’t find my copy of Shadows of the Empire. Checked all my book storing places and nothing.

In my investigation, I found DeepSeek to be a clear mouthpiece for the CCP with active and obvious censorship. At one point, it started using “we” pronouns to speak as the CCP. Here’s what I asked it and the craziness that went down www.pcmag.com/news/chinas-...
