As measles rages in S Carolina notice that those responding to this outbreak on the frontlines are pediatricians, family med practitioners, nurses and local public health officials.
Not the wellness influencers and podscasters who discourage vaccination.

Rob Reiner made some great movies but he was also unafraid to speak the truth, and was one of the public voices who knew you don’t squander your platform, and only got louder about opposing evil fucks as he got older. Legend.

What I find hardest to believe about the last 10 years in the US is how an entire country of 350 million people has just stood there & allowed this utter madman to run amok, destroying its institutions, its civility, its global reputation. Has America no self-respect at all? 😲

They're not hiding it, folks—straight up neo-Nazi advertising, from the font to the language to the 11 stars for the Confederacy. Then you have the DHS openly using white nationalist language of "remigrate", which means ethnic cleansing.

This is the Sunburst Candy Spider from Thailand. Not AI (sucks to have to declare this). Very real and had been on my wish list for a long time.
The taxonomic placement is unclear, so we are leaving it at Cyrtarachninae.

Ukraine,a country viciously&unjustly attacked by Russia,must not be punished as a result.There’s a fundamental difference between an aggressor&the one who defends itself!

Well this 2,600-year-old clay letter was a journey.
It comes from the archive of a goldsmith named Nabû-zeru-iddin in the heart of ancient Assyria. We’ve got someone left on read, a lawsuit, a mean step-mom, and people who get drunk and steal silver.

The marvellous Cartwheel Galaxy!
Its unique form is partly due to a smaller galaxy that passed through the middle. The violent collision produced shock waves that swept through the galaxy and triggered large amounts of star formation

Something is wrong when the government doesn’t sufficiently fund the CSIRO, yet continues to increase subsidies for fossil fuel producers.
