White cis ex-scientist and ex-many other things. Here because of a strong belief in standpoint epistemology; I think our survival may depend on it. He/Him
Body cam footage shows 19 year old who was pulled over for a minor traffic infraction, police shoving him to the ground, DHS then lied about him being charged with a felony, and weeks later he dies in Florida ICE detention.
Today on X. I tweeted about my son's death from meningococcal sepsis caused by Men C, and people are tweeting at me about how bad vaccines are. One problem: Eddie hadn't had the vaccine that might have prevented him from dying ie the Men C vaccine.
But…this is nonsense. During the pandemic Stanford Med provided several toxic antivaccine talking heads on Fox News and other news outlets. It was a cesspool of anti-science activism. Of course there’s still amazing serious science done there, but his assertions are false

BREAKING: Back in March Trump claimed that the US blew up a "drug trafficking training camp," in Ecuador and released this video of the attack.
Today we just found out, thanks to the New York Times, that it was actually a dairy farm.
The US Government stated at the time:
"At the request of Ecuador, the Department of War executed targeted action to advance our shared objective of dismantling narco-terrorist networks. This operation demonstrates the power of coordinated action and sends a clear message: narco-terrorist networks will not find refuge in our hemisphere."
I am so f-cking embarrassed to be an American right now.
She came here as a teenager. She has had DACA since 2013. She has a 22-year-old U.S. citizen child.
She was applying for her green card, yet despite her valid DACA she was thrown in handcuffs and deported to Mexico just because she was turned back at the border 27 years ago.
@Carl1411c @drterrysimpson Dictated is far to strong of word, influenced is a better one from the data. But 'germs' isn't very specific, some are part of the microbiome some are hardly influenced at all by our microbiome.
A trainee gynaecologist in Belgium who was found guilty of rape will face no punishment and receive no criminal record because, the judge decided, he is "a talented and (socially) engaged young man".
Unsurprisingly, the student he raped is devastated by the ruling. It also means that he will be able to practise gynecology, potentially putting other women at risk of sexual assault.
I met toddlers at Dilley who were so anxious and depressed that they couldn’t eat, sleep, or go to the bathroom – let alone play. This is state-sanctioned child abuse and it needs to end now.

@rodimusprime I get the feeling, but do you know how much better shape we would be in if they just fired bad cops and said, "Sorry bud" our bad we should never of hired you, you can't ever be a cop. Every cop the catch usually has their own internal rap sheet and are easily rehired.
