The worst person you know is seething at this headline.

Out of a team of TEN people ages 44-70, EIGHT have officially been diagnosed with GERD, and FOUR have been DIAGNOSED with GOUT, TWO have been diagnosed with CANCER, and SIX no longer can drink occasionally due to ALCOHOL INTOLERANCE.

….and only TWO of us recognize the link between these illnesses to a past Covid infection, although ALL of us have been extensively trained about the long term effects of COVID.

This is a county-level national RSV map using CDC data. It uses the same methodology as the PMC COVlD map.

Why isn't the CDC doing this? It would seem much more informative to clinicians, public health leaders, and families.

As @kirbykrackle says, we've slowed down from 180mph to 60mph. Still wear your seatbelt.

Your seatbelt is multilayered mitigation.

[Mike Hoerger, PhD MSCR MBA @michael_hoerger]

Great news. Biobot has COVlD levels falling further after a small rise.

There is still no indication yet of a sizable summer wave, but expect to see a lot of minimizing the next few weeks. The strong signal won't be visible until July 17 & more certainty on July 24.

IT PASSED THE HOUSE BUT NOT THE SENATE

YOU NEED BOTH TO PASS THIS INTO LAW

CALL YOUR SENATORS

@justinamash They did it on purpose. Our government is full of traitors.

[Justin Amash @justinamash]

Forty-seven members of Congress skipped the vote on the KIDS Act, which establishes the infrastructure for mass surveillance of Americans online.

This bill needed a two-thirds majority to pass, so just 17 more no votes could have sunk it!

A couple members might have a legit excuse, but 47? No way. They bailed to avoid going on the record, even at the cost of furthering the surveillance state.

[LibertarianGriffin @LibertarianGrif]

I challenge every politician who voted yes for the Kids Act to upload their full ID and a face video scan to X today! Tag your representatives that voted yes!

Digital ID/Age Verification to identify everyone.

Flock Cameras to track every movement.

Data centers to store all the information and store social credit scores.

The US Government is preparing to fuck us all with Mass Surveillance and Censorship, Chinese Style.

The internet might be over.

I am not talking about the corporate, ad-filled internet. I mean the real one. The one you use to talk with your friends, find niche communities, and freely share ideas. The way you access and interact with the digital world is about to change forever if we don't speak up right now.

The U.S. House of Representatives just passed the KIDS Act. Do not let the well-intentioned name fool you. This massive legislative package is a wolf in sheep’s clothing that could potentially cause an unfathomable amount of damage to the privacy, security, and free speech of every single citizen in the United States.

Major civil liberties and digital rights organizations, including the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) and FIRE (Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression) are sounding the alarm. This bill is a massive over-reach of legislation designed to curtail your freedoms, everyones.

Under this bill, websites and apps will be pressured to verify the age of all users to avoid massive legal liability. This creates a de facto age-verification mandate, meaning you could soon be forced to upload government IDs, passports, or hand over biometric facial scans just to use standard apps or browse everyday websites. Forcing every corner of the web to collect and store these massive databases of citizen identity documents is an absolute cybersecurity nightmare waiting to happen, creating a golden target for hackers and data leaks.

The bill also takes direct aim at standard privacy features like disappearing or ephemeral messaging, treating basic digital privacy tools like dangerous design tricks rather than the digital equivalent of a private, real-world conversation. By weaponizing broad, vague definitions of "harmful content," the package pressures tech platforms to heavily over-censor completely lawful speech out of fear of massive government lawsuits. It risks sanitizing the internet and shutting down vital spaces for free expression and open communication.

This won't stop at signing up for websites, or chat apps. It will extend to artwork websites, multimedia hubs like Newgrounds, Music sites, even Reddit and 4chan will be subjected to this, and while you might think it's well deserved, you won't be saying that when they start asking users to verify their age on Mangadex or doujinshi sites, or on Itch io. Going to websites outside the US would be scrutinized if it doesn't follow the same criteria.

VPNs? Forget it, they'll try to outlaw those, too.

We all want children to be safe, but turning the entire internet into an Orwellian surveillance state where you have to show papers just to log on is a terrifying overreach. The bill has passed the House, which means the battleground is officially moving to the Senate. We cannot afford to sit this one out. This is a slippery slope and we must not give them this power over all of us.

This is Citizens United on steroids. Yet another green light for Trump and Republicans endless corruption.

BREAKING: In a stunning moment, Fox News just broke the news that Donald Trump's efforts to strike down birthright citizenship have failed. It's amazing to watch Fox proclaim Trump a loser.

@krassenstein When is @RepThomasMassie, @RoKhanna, and @mtgreenee going to read the epstein names on the floor like they promised?
