Pregnancy vaccine reduces baby hospital admissions for RSV by 80% A study confirms the vaccine gives excellent protection for babies against life-threatening chest infections.

Vaccines are humanity’s greatest scientific achievement.

Mamdani: "What are we fighting for?. When you look back at the history books of our party, 100 years ago we had a very clear vision of what we were fighting for. It's sad that for too many Americans, when they want to look for ambition in the Democratic Party, then have to turn to a history book."

Exposing a global ‘online rape academy’ that is teaching men how to abuse women and evade detection CNN exposes an online network of men encouraging each other to drug and assault their partners, and swap tips on how to get away with it.

CNN exposes a global “online rape academy” that teaches men how to drug and rape women without detection. Over 62 million men attended in February alone.

Men, We Need to Talk About "Rape Academy" This isn’t about women. This is about us. And it’s long past time we had this conversation

This article is for men.

In just the past few weeks: a wife murdered. A community leader killed. Multiple women alleging assault from another congressman. A survivor died by suicide. "Rape Academy" has 140 million visits in two months.

The pattern is horrifying, and the solution starts with us.

AOC: Whether it’s people in the Epstein files still roaming free, or the president, a known rapist, continuing to occupy the White House, all of this has contributed to the normalization and the idea that incidents of harassment shouldn’t matter.

And I think today was an important turning point

Seattle doesn't let off the gas.

I love everything about this. Well deserved. #WNBA

She’s 💯 spot on….

So pro-life means jailing women who miscarry but shrugging when the deranged president says “a whole civilization will die tonight.” Do I have that right?

it's really so beside the point by now, but i cannot believe people gave this psychotic motherfucker a second chance.

Secret Election Funders (via NYT) U.S. politics has seen a stunning increase in dark money donations, undermining promises from the Supreme Court.

i’m so old i remember when obama called out SCOTUS for citizens united during a SOTU, predicting this would happen, and alito shook his head and said “that’s not true”

The American people do not want endless war.

Including cancer research for kids.

Total dirt bags.

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress beforehand, or our allies, or coherently explain to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers.

Reminder that Congress has the power to stop this.

Meanwhile Prof Tim Snyder is also issuing warnings about the same.

Because of climate change caused by burning shittons of fossil fuels.

Lasers were a huge scientific breakthrough and now we use them to play with cats. Computers were also a huge scientific breakthrough and now we use them to look at pictures of cats. In other words, science was made for cats.

The congressional switchboard number is (202) 224-3121. Put it in your cell phone. Use it. If you're not calling at least once a week, you're not doing your part.

Massive budget cuts for US science proposed again by Trump administration Budget proposal would also curb federal payments for scientific publishing.

I will say this again: Science isn’t just something that nerds do, it’s the foundation of the modern world.

It’s why this app exists. It’s why child mortality rate isn’t 50% anymore. It’s how we’re able to launch people to the moon. It’s how we’re able to grow food that feeds half the world.

Forest Service Will Close Research Stations That Study Wildfire Risk

My USDA-Forest Service-funded project with scientists there was about water in the western United States. I guess that’s not a concern anymore.

Cloisonné pin similar to the NASA logo, but reads “NOT FLAT”, with “we checked” underneath l

NASA’s Earth photos from Artemis inspired me to put this on today… 🙂

Getting lots of positive comments on it as I run errands…

"Biggest scam in modern political history."

Real President vs. Temu President.

I know I’m not the first person to say this, but if a Democratic President had said or done even one of the things that the 🍊💩🤡 has done, they would have been impeached and gone by the end of the day.

Remember when Trump removed Maduro and Republicans were celebrating because they thought Trump was going to bring freedom and democracy to Venezuela, but instead he just left the Maduro regime in place while stealing their oil like we knew he would?
