Over many interviews, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told Michael Scherer about how he plans to remake America’s public-health system. Can he lead the scientific establishment he’s spent much of his life crusading against?

Don’t forget to vaccinate boys. Cervical cancer isn’t the only HPV driven cancer and unvaccinated boys can transmit to others who are unvaccinated.

As much as I loathe to draw attention to the National Post, I think it's important to keep an eye on what they're up to. In this case, it's writing a piece that can be summed up with, "The stupid libs keep fear mongering about their bodily rights being taken away. Here's why we should do that."

Dear Google,

Stop suggesting your AI nonsense to me. I do not want it. I have never wanted it, and never will. The suggestions are disruptive and enraging and make me want to never use your services again. Just because you sunk your fortunes into AI slop doesn't mean we have to use it.

Love,
