Absurd. This is what’s wrong with America.

NASA just dropped this image of Artemis II astronaut Christina Koch looking back at us. The first woman to ever see our planet in its entirety. I’m not crying you’re crying 🥹🔭🧪 📸: NASA

Just finished @aptshadow.bsky.social ‘s “Children of Time” and “Children of Ruin”- he has really mastered the art of taking you past the edge of catastrophe and pulling you back. Excellent writing. I can’t wait to read more!!

Justice for Chris’ cat Chalupa. She shouldn’t have to live in such a misogynistic household.

I screamed “what about the Darien Gap?!” As soon as I realized the plan was to drive from Paraguay to Albuquerque. I was not disappointed 🌴 🗡️ 🔥

If Maintenance Phase taught me anything it’s that this should read “A Paradise for the Incompetent.”

There's a point, around the age of twenty, when you have to choose whether to be like everybody else the rest of your life, or to make a virtue of your peculiarities.

RFK jr promised Sen Bill Cassidy during his confirmation hearings that he would not alter vaccine statements or guidance.  RFK Jr just admitted he personally directed the changes on the CDC vaccine/autism website.  How is that not admitting he lied to Congress?

As I spent more and more of my life under the care of doctors, nurses, and researchers striving to improve the lives of others, I watched as Bobby cut nearly a half billion dollars for research into mRNA vaccines, technology that could be used against certain cancers; slashed billions in funding from the National Institutes of Health, the world's largest sponsor of medical research; and threatened to oust the panel of medical experts charged with recommending preventive cancer screenings. Hundreds of N.I.H. grants and clinical trials were cancelled, affecting thousands of patients. I worried about funding for leukemia and bone-marrow research at Memorial Sloan Kettering. I worried about the trials that were my only shot at remission. Early in my illness, when I

After unprecedented autism-vaccine messaging change, scientists, advocates say CDC no longer trustworthy

Scientists tell Americans not to trust the CDC.

Instead of a global leader in science, the CDC has devolved into “a propaganda machine for RFK Jr.'s fixed, immutable, science-resistant theories,” said @pauloffit.bsky.social.

The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.

Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.

The people who need help are not the problem.

It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

Diane Keaton died of pneumonia, her family confirms, thanking fans for 'love and support' "Any donations in her memory to a local food bank or an animal shelter would be a wonderful and much appreciated tribute to her," her family said.

This news was very sad to hear.
Pneumonia from any cause is very serious in older individuals. This is why we recommend pneumococcal vaccines for everyone 60 and over and RSV, Flu and COVID vaccines to prevent viral causes of Pneumonia.

Devour Your Nice Things
Burn the fancy candle.
Wear the special-occasion dress.
Pop the good bottle.
Scribble hurry slowly on the first page
of your leather-bound notebook.
Gorge on your pearls, 
your cashmere, your silks.
Use the high-end eyeshadow
until the silver pan winks back.
Baptize your wrists in Baccarat Rouge,
a little extra for the collar.
Devour your nice things—
don't let the best go cold on your plate.
The anticipation of living is empty calories
and you were meant to be full.
Elise M Powers
