WELL NOW, would you look at that? A massive, 24-YEAR-LONG study of MORE THAN 1.2 MILLION people in Denmark found NO LINK between aluminum in childhood vaccines and autism, asthma, OR chronic disorders.
Aluminum is an ADJUVANT.
It ENHANCES your immune response to a vaccine.
That’s it.

By the way, it's National Editor Appreciation Day.
Nobody ever reads a great article and thinks, "Dang, that was some tight editing." But editing is a big part of how it got to be great.
So writers, if you've ever worked with a good editor, shout 'em out.

I have 3 axioms that help me decide when to talk to people I disagree with:
1. To debate a subject is to concede that the subject is debatable.
2. To reason with a person is to concede that the person is reasonable.
3. To ask for evidence of a claim is to concede that the claim might be true.

What is it about waiting rooms that people insist on listening to their phone without earbuds and taking very loud phone calls to share personal information? This overcrowded waiting room is my villain origin story.

“Did I give you this election, Daddy?” Tesla cattily purred.
America fisted its big beautiful bill and wedged it between Tesla’s thighs, which spread wider than the wealth gap after trickle down economics.
“You’re my little Epstein file,” America rasped, “because I want to see what’s inside you.”
