Please look up the influenza epidemic of 1918-19 to understand that the CDC not selecting strains for next year’s vaccines sets the stage for a public health calamity that will, without doubt and at bare minimum, catastrophically and directly impact people you know. This is a five alarm fire.

there are a lot of things to criticize about the tech oligarchs that are ruining our lives and feeding horrible racism and transphobia to the masses but like one of the core things about every single one of them is that they are all just spectacular gross dipshits

The reporting on the trans travel visa ban is criminal. It does NOT only affect transgender athletes. The cables CLEARLY say it affects all trans people. They can reject visas on point 6 of anyone who is requesting a visa that does not match their assigned sex at birth.

In a racialist worldview, Black people are all: a) dependent on government subsidies b) quota/affirmative action/DEI hires c) both Since there's nothing I can do to dispel these lies, I move on with my life. I refuse to prove my humanity to those cursed with small minds and limited imagination.

They’re so used to creating pseudo-events to provide more material for the distorted frames of their bullshit machine. They are not used to these dynamics being turned against them. The left needs to seize the moment, organize its own events, and start generating content for its own viral messaging.

Y’know whats honestly nice abt this. We can make as many jokes abt thirsty folks as we want but he used his statement to say “stop giving your jubblies & personal info to the cops. Who knows what’ll happen to it in their hands” and hes right. That stuff is being screened but ask what becomes of it

There are already disabled people who die while waiting for social security to be approved. Punishingly long delays, frequent rejections & little interim support exists. A 50% reduction in staff will kill many more. Stand up for disabled people. We are often the first targets, never the last

The first measles death in the US in a decade -- the tragic, preventable death of a child whose parents chose not to protect them with vaccination -- should spark an immediate nation-wide campaign to ensure all children are protected against preventable diseases. Anything less is unconscionable.

Measles If you were born between 1957-1968, your MMR vax was less effective than what came later & you may need boosting. If you were born before ~1984, there's a small chance it may no longer be protecting you & you may need boosting. I just messaged my doc to ask re: a "titer test" to find out.

1 in 7 families in California rely on SNAP. That’s less than $7 a day to help afford increasingly expensive food. $7 can barely buy a dozen eggs right now. And, remarkably, Republicans want to lower that number to pay for tax cuts for corporate donors. Unconscionable.

That's a rather interesting way to describe saving the lives of infants born before 36 weeks - whose medical costs are usually covered by Medicaid.

Substack discourse again so I am moved to reiterate: getting off Substack is one of THE most straightforward and effective ways to get fascist stink off your work. If you choose not to do it because it seems too hard, then I do not trust you to do literally anything in the face of fascism.
