Let me get this straight. So you have 2 outright anti-vaxxers. And 6 folks who tangentially worked with/in medicine but absolutely no background in immunology or vaccines. Tell me again about "following the science" when no one on the panel has studied the science? www.cnn.com/2025/06/11/h...

While a shutdown is never good, a shutdown is stable, predictable, and known (meaning nothing is happening until it is over). In the current climate of on again off again government DOGE terminations, this might actually reduce some of the market volatility.

Is this thing on? Does anyone know someone hiring? As a casualty of this wonderful economy I'm on the market for a role as a Director/VP of Software Engineering. (Hopefully somewhere where my BlueSky posts won't get me fired, or worse...) www.linkedin.com/in/ssalaka/

"The further a society drifts from truth, the more it hates those who speak it." Over the years I've amassed a ton of blocked folks on FB, but usually I would see one or two bots, and maybe a handful of -phobes posting on things. Now that the flood gates are opened, it's becoming worse than X...
