Will you be able to get a COVID-19 vaccine?
The answer may depend on your age, insurance coverage, health and finding a pharmacist who will provide the shot. The process has become muddled this year thanks to new federal guidance on who can get the shots. bit.ly/4gjRt73

Every time your electricity bill goes up for the next 10 years, it can be traced back to this Administration’s actions.
They are making solar and wind power illegal to build in the United States. They are artificially restricting supply while demand is going up.

So predictable
Earlier this week, Trump promised "very severe consequences" if Putin did not agree to a ceasefire. Now, he's abandoning the idea altogether.
"After just three short months of the Trump administration, we are contemplating the abdication of US leadership in oceanic and atmospheric science."

This is obviously thinly-veiled racism. But it’s also a bullshit premise. Haitian refugees were thriving in Springfield. Bhutanese, Congolese, other refugees from Africa & Asia have reinvigorated Rust Belt towns and cities. Trump wants to send them all back.
Congratulations everyone. We’ve allowed a curdled turd of a buffoon to destroy our happiness and millions of lives. It’s repulsive what is happening to our country. So many have risked their lives to protect and that little sniveling imbecile is crapping all over their memories.
Tweet sent out 14 hours BEFORE the DC mid air collision by Thomas Schaller on X: “An FAA employee I know confirms agency already lacks sufficient air traffic controllers. The so-called "buyouts" and other attacks on federal employees won't help. Remember that fact when the flight delays (crashes?) commence and Trumpers start falsely blaming DEl or Biden. 08:06 • 1/29/25 • 1.4M Views”
This tweet sent out 14 hours BEFORE the crash needs to be immortalized in stone.
Or on a plaque in every ATC tower.
Or on a disclaimer before every Mayday: Air Disaster episode.
Or on an Amber Alert type system to every American.
Or on a stamp.
Or maybe currency.
Something.
The price of eggs in the US is spiking, mostly due to #H5N1 bird flu. Solving the problem requires urgent, important communications from the CDC & FDA* and rapid development of research by the NIH**

Significant milestone: US consumers now have access to 100 different models of EV. (Still no small, simple pickup truck or minivan, to my ongoing bafflement.)
physics of climate impacts 101:
- Stuff gets hot (worse heatwaves)
- Hot air holds more water vapor (heavier rainfall)
- Hot air is thirstier air (higher drought risk)
- Warm water is hurricane food (stronger storms)
- Hot water expands and hot ice melts (sea level rise)
