In the beginning whiny Bluesky bubble articles were every twelve weeks. Then six, then three. Then every two weeks. The last one was a week ago. In four days we could be seeing a whiny Bluesky bubble article every eight hours until they are coming every four minutes.

71 years old and finally achieving his dream of killing children. Not just some children here or there, like he's been doing, but thousands of children annually, systematically, by destroying one of the pillars of public health, one of the greatest achievements of humanity.
