.@janetvkelly: "One easy win for Congress this year is the Kids Online Safety Act. It's got bipartisan support, it's easy, and it polls at well over 90%. It would be the right policy move for them to do."

@Squeeze1i I've wrestled depression for 35 years, since I was 13yo.

Truth is, it waxes & wanes. Like the moon.

Sometimes it's unbearably difficult to GET UP. Other days I'm thinking "Not too bad!" - while waiting for the other shoe to drop.

Please try ever so hard to stay. You matter. 🍄

The new chair of the US vaccine advisory committee has questioned whether children still need the polio vaccine

Polio is still circulating in parts of the world, and the only reason American kids don't get it is the vaccine.

That's not a reason to stop. It's proof it works.

さっき道ですれ違った人、犬の散歩用リード持ってたけどハーネスの中に肝心の犬がおらず虚無を散歩させていて、ペットロスとかで気が触れちゃった人かな？と思ってたらその人の少し後ろを困り顔で慌てた様子のパグがテチテチ歩いて追い掛けてた

Routine childhood vaccination dipped significantly during Covid

If vaccines causes autism we should see a dip in autism cases

We are not

We will not

Because it's NOT THE VACCINES

“Universal healthcare would crash the economy.”

No, the ONLY thing it would crash is the massive stock portfolios of the elites who get rich off our physical suffering. Wake up.

I have a theory that adults miss college so much because it was the last time they lived in walkable communities, saw their friends every day, could get almost anywhere without needing a car, and were surrounded by neighborhoods designed to foster connection.

Medical professionals out here suggesting that masking in a high-risk healthcare environment HARMS children because children "need exposure" to dangerous pathogenic illness to "build their immune system" should result in immediate expulsion from the field, directly into the sun.

There’s literally a children’s board game whose whole premise is showing how free market capitalism ends with one person owning everything while everyone else goes bankrupt.

Happy birthday to Ursula K. Le Guin. "We live in capitalism. Its power seems inescapable. So did the divine right of kings."

Airbnb finally putting its foot down on hosts treating guests like unpaid housekeeping staff. You shouldn’t have to strip the beds, wash every dish, and haul out the garbage after paying for a place to stay.

I wish I was wrong, but I do have a suspicion that what’s happening in Tennessee, Texas, Michigan, etc is what happened in 2024. However, they weren’t caught last time. This time though, people are catching on that something is definitely wrong.

So, we couldn't install ventilation systems in schools, cinemas, office buildings, etc., while they were empty in 2020, but mid- nineteenth-century engineers could raise entire buildings and streets in downtown Chicago, by as much as 14 feet, in response to water-borne illnesses.
