get the fucking vaccine
I had shingles in my early teen years. I cannot express to you how badly you do not want to get shingles. get the fucking vaccine.
All over my FB people talking about their bad experiences with shingles vax and dissuading each other from getting it! We need to give people real info on how to mitigate the symtoms caused by vaccines because vaccines are always better than meeting a virus unprepared. Yet drs aren't coaching ppl

Unhinged to describe the criticism of her journalistic ethics as a "freaksome lynching" when she has not denied any of the allegations and admits to most of them in her book.
Possibly the only thing more freakish than Nuzzi's prose is the contortions her defenders twist themselves into. "She's not just hot, but she definitely is hot, while also being a vulnerable smol child. Also, criticizing her is sexist."

It is a huge issue!
The Trump administration has made the targeting of trans people one of its top priorities, while legacy media treat it as an afterthought, a side-story of the second Trump term.

Assigned Media is committed to finding as many of the stories that would slip through the cracks as possible.

I wonder how long it'll be before SCOTUS decides to tear down all vaccine requirements by mandating bullshit religious exemptions. Part of their overarching goal of destroying public school in part by making it unsafe for middle class parents to send their kids to
The Supreme Court asks Trump's Justice Department to weigh in on a pending challenge to New York's COVID vaccine mandate for health care workers, which lacks any exception for religious objections. Suggests that some justices are looking at this one closely. www.scotusblog.com/cases/case-f...

FIRE has long been associated with the cause of “academic freedom” championed by its right-wing donors, so I wanted to see how its much-publicized expansion into free expression has played out.

Among its newest stances? Support for conversion therapy on religious-based free speech grounds.

More than that, his crew threatened to open fire on the murderers. He rescued civilians, returned to base to refuel, flew back, and rescued more civilians. Then he denounced the crimes to his HQ.

For all this he received death-threats throughout his life.

Recently, I've been asked whether every baby actually needs HBV vaccination, largely with the implication that doing this is "one size fits all," and that's not a good approach.

Implicit in this assumption is the idea that every individual's physiology is so unique that it demands unique care.

From @josephinelee.bsky.social in 2024: My family, among many others, was forbidden to publicly speak their mother tongue and relegated to an underclass in their own land. It wasn’t until the 1970s, when they moved to Houston, that they began to explore what it meant to be Taiwanese.

What I always hear: “We can’t afford to pay our workers more than $15 an hour.”

What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.”

Funny how that works.

I think an important thing to understand about brofluencer ideology is that they do not just deny that being toxic and shitty makes you a less appealing partner, they insist that women are only genuinely attracted to toxic and shitty men and being kind will instead make women lose respect for you.
I'm starting to wonder how much "the male loneliness epidemic" is just straight and bisexual women identifying low-effort, mean, and incompetent men and choosing not to date, marry, and tolerate them anymore

This, despite the fact that we now have lots of evidence that the Trump campaign used targeted advertising that shifted viewpoint based on a profile of the individual being targeted. Which is to say, their campaign told individuals whatever they wanted to hear
