It's why male paediatricians don't exist

mRNA vaccines continue to show major promise.

In a small Phase 1 trial led by Dr. Balachandran, some patients with pancreatic cancer (one of the deadliest cancers) reached 6-year survival.

This is why sustained investment in science & research matters.

The Onion Has a New Plan to Take Over Infowars

and people say nothing good ever happens on monday (congrats @bencollins.bsky.social + team!) 🎁 link

The Infowars news is funny, yes. But more importantly, it is an outright rebuke of Alex Jones' evil.

It's testament to the strength and resilience of the Sandy Hook families who survived this bullshit for more than a decade as well as the Onion, which didn't give up on this for the last 18 months.

Today I turn 89. I’ve seen this country at its best and its worst, and I know how much community matters. For my birthday, I’m asking you to stand with PFLAG and support the work that’s helped so many in the LGBTQ+ community, including me. give.pflag.org/page/95493/d...

An onion will do well for such a shift

This has real "I have a girlfriend, you don't know her, she lives in Canada" energy

As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I take a look at my life and realize there's not much left

Videos… and livestreams, I should add

Not quite sure what you are trying to defend here

Yes, I saw that the website that posts videos of men assaulting women was visited 62 million times in February, 2026.

I watched Hegseth's press conference just now because I'm teaching "Persepolis" and my kids have so many questions about what's happening right now and I'm reading and watching everything.

I REALLY do not recommend watching a Hegseth press conference first thing in the morning if you can avoid it

Hegseth's press conference:

20% war crime threats
10% Jaw-dropping false equivalencies via Biblical allusions
70% chastising the "mainstream media"
1 question from OAN
1 question from "Real America's voice"
3 ultra-glazing questions from an unnamed reporter
2 questions from "Just the News"

No lies detected

Luckily for me, I read the article. Also the articles about Epstein and his odious compatriots. Also articles about Trump. Hegseth. Swalwell.
RFK Jr.

That’s to say nothing of the rank-and-file sexual abusers who do not currently work in the US government

I know, I know, I know, "Not all men."

But, like,

a lotta men though

People with overactive imaginations should 👏 not 👏 gamble 👏

Oooohhh I sure hope it’s hosted by some dude who doesn’t unbutton his suit jacket when he sits down and a nepo sister who curls up in her chair because she is relatable

SCIENCE

He’s not the antichrist, but he’s not not the antichrist either

I never buy lottery tickets because someone bought me on as a gift once and I spent a week dreaming about all of the mortgages I would pay off for my friends and family and how I would start a rescue for old and abandoned horses and I was completely devastated when I inevitably did not win

an excellent take

he's counting on people not knowing what a doctor looks like because they don't have healthcare

Genuinely depressing to me that your partner has to Doordash to raise money for your cancer treatment when you get old. What happens if you don't have a partner? Are we just working to pay a landlord and save up for a medical emergency when we're elderly?

😘👌

YES

Like, he kills his girlfriend without thinking twice when it serves his needs.

There’s no doubting the appeal of the character and of course Michael B Jordan - but that’s what makes him such a dangerous villain - his appeal

That’s a good comparison

Honestly stunned to learn this morning that people think Killmonger is “the good guy.”

Are they just in love with Michael B. Jordan? I mean, I get it, but the character is very clearly bad
