Jeff Bezos has $222 billion.

If he paid my wealth tax this year, we could fund insulin in America for everyone who needs it plus free school lunch for every kid in Texas—and have plenty of money left over.

And Bezos would still have $215 billion dollars to spare.

Coffee linked to slower brain ageing in study of 130,000 people Study suggests moderate caffeine intake might reduce dementia risk and slow cognitive decline.

The only science I never question is the one that validates my love for coffee and justifies my daily consumption of the piping hot black brew😊.
I will not be taking any questions.

I believe this. We just posted an ad for a job. Had a similar posting 3 years ago. I’m getting 5-10x more applications. Most applicants currently do not have a job, and most are recent grads. 😩😩😩

And the new NCI Director moves to piss away his scientific credibility.

First, killing cancer cells is a very low bar; many compounds kill cancer cells and are not the least bit useful for treating cancer.

FDA Announces Canned Tuna Recall in 9 States Over Botulism Risk Tri-Union Seafoods initiated the recall after a distributor mistakenly shipped quarantined cans, which were first recalled last February.

12 months of MAHA:

Our last foodborne botulism outbreak hasn’t been resolved yet & now one of the only affordable sources of lean protein is a botulism risk, too; measles cases are exploding, even tuberculosis is on the rise. And they’re still trying to deregulate more.

Maybe expertise did matter…

The fact that nothing is being done about this — and that people keep blithely hanging out on that site as though its owner and a key part of its official architecture aren’t actively enabling disgusting criminal abuse at scale — is making me lose my mind
