This is a good read.

RFK Jr. wants to prove that vaccines cause autism. He has brought on David Geier, who has used ethically questionable research methods & has had his medical license revoked.

The the upcoming study to be released will be misleading.

TSR leaves the dungeons to Dungeons & Dragons and heads to the stars in a 1983 ad illustrated by Jeff Easley for Star Frontiers, a sci-fi tabletop RPG.

"There are Warbots. Blasters. Sonic Screens. The deadly Sathar!" waiting for players as they adventure through the United Planetary Federation!

THERE'S ONLY ONE PLANET IN THE GALAXY WHERE YOU CAN BUY STAR FRONTIERS GAME...

Introducing STAR FRONTIERS game, from the producers of the DUNGEONS & DRAGONS game phenomenon. Hold on to your chair as your imagination catapults you to adventure in futuristic alien worlds. There are Warbots. Blasters. Sonic Screens. The deadly Sathar! And even after ten or more victories to your credit you won't stop wondering...what on earth will we think of next? Get yours today.

AREN'T YOU GLAD IT'S EARTH?

----------------------------------

TSR wanted to take a stab at sci-fi with this relatively short lived entry that launched in 1982 and ended in 1985. In comparison, its contemporary by Game Designers' Workshop (Traveller) which launched in 1977 would see decades of revisions and updates (and PC adaptations!) as it changed hands.

My Democratic colleagues and I just left the state of Texas to break quorum and stop Trump’s redistricting power grab.

Trump is trying to rig the midterm elections right before our eyes. But first he’ll have to come through us.

It’s time to fight back.

Science often sounds ridiculous out of context. But that’s why NIH grantees have to painstakingly document and explain what they do and why. Writing a grant application for NIH funding is notoriously The Worst, but it’s what has to happen. The NIH knows perfectly well what that money is spent on!

🌊 Hill Country Rivers Rising | Sunday Afternoon Update 🌊

The San Saba and Llano Rivers are both rising rapidly and in flood from areas near Junction, Mason, Llano, and San Saba. While rain has ended for now, that water will move downstream, so please stay alert near rivers and creeks.

Wow. Lake Buchanan is within 5ft of being full and Lake Travis within 20. Might be the first time in the 30+ years I've seen both being this close to being full.

Trouble is once they are both full, the water has to be let all the way through. Too much water and there will be flooding in Austin.

"For What It's Worth," written by Stephen Stills, was inspired by the Sunset Strip curfew riots in Los Angeles in 1966, reflecting the social unrest and generational conflict of the era.
