@Freedom250 Where??? People are waiting to be let in and the crowds are rushing and creating dangerous situations

On Hantavirus: a (non-technical) thread.

Disclaimer: I am a biology PhD, but not virology/epidemiology. Husbandman is a virology PhD. But I’m told I’m good at communicating science, so here’s my take.

[brian @brianonhere]

hantavirus stuff seems to mostly be every medical or science adjacent person i see on here being like “it’s not gonna be the next pandemic” and every 12 hours of screen time adjacent person i see on here being like “Should i kill myself tonight or tomorrow”

CANCER DEATH RATES HAVE GONE DOWN

This persistent myth is so annoying. We actually have made a lot of progress, both in addressing causes of cancer and in making treatments!

[gaz @SilentGarrett]

call me a lib but maybe we shouldn’t have roaming gangs of masked men arresting people without charges and shooting innocent people in the face

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey to ICE: “Get the fuck out of Minneapolis.”

Yall still drive cars even though there are car accident deaths on a daily basis, but a small population having a negative response to vaccines turns you into an anti-vaxxer? Mmm ok i guess

Pope Leo said in a Christmas Eve sermon that the story of Jesus being born in a stable because there was no room at an inn should remind Christians that refusing to help the poor and strangers today is tantamount to rejecting God himself. For @Reuters

i think whoever invented "pet rent" should be flogged and quartered in the public square

terrible communication at zoo lights, people waiting in the cold for updates and a “working” entrance/exit. can’t believe I had to pay for this too @NationalZoo

I’d really like to see a journalist just flat out ask Trump “what the fuck is wrong with you” at some point even if it doesn’t move the needle in any concrete way.

@WhiteHouse this video is evil and disgusting. Do not ever involve me or my music to benefit your inhumane agenda.

[Jane Mayer @JaneMayerNYer]

This is so tragic, so unnecessary, these poor guardsmen should never have been deployed. I live in DC and watched as they had virtually nothing to do but pick up trash. It was for political show and at what a cost.

Why do seniors need property tax relief? Have they tried eating less avocado toast?

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

The poorest are not only objects of our compassion, but teachers of the Gospel. It is not a question of “bringing” God to them, but of encountering Him among them. Serving the poor is not a gesture to be made “from above,” but an encounter between equals, where Christ is revealed and adored. #JubileeOfThePoor #DilexiTe

After 40 grueling days of no SNAP and no pay for federal workers at least we got higher healthcare costs for 25 million people

[Ro Khanna @RoKhanna]

Senator Schumer is no longer effective and should be replaced. If you can’t lead the fight to stop healthcare premiums from skyrocketing for Americans, what will you fight for?

[Garrett @TheGarrative9]

Dodgers used a $750 million pitcher, a $182 million pitcher, a $136.5 million pitcher, and a $325 million pitcher to win the World Series tonight btw.

Definitely healthy for the sport. Definitely good for it.

OBAMA: They never miss a chance to scapegoat minorities and DEI for every problem under the sun.

You got a flat tire? DEI. (Laughter.)

Wife mad at you?

AUDIENCE: DEI!

OBAMA: What they have not devoted energy to is helping you. They have not put forward serious proposals to lower housing costs or make groceries more affordable. They haven’t improved our schools. They haven’t made health care more accessible. They haven’t shortened your commute or prepared young people for the future where AI might take their job.

And all the nonsense we see on the news every day, the over-the-top rhetoric, the fabricated conspiracies, the weird videos of a U.S. president with a crown on his head flying a fighter jet and dumping poop on protesting citizens, all of that is designed to distract you from the fact that your situation has not gotten better. #VAGOV
