I'm always baffled by the "I don't mask, but you're smart for doing that" type of remark. It's reflective of the massive cognitive dissonance ppl have abt covid. They have some understanding that it can cause serious probs, but competing motivations drive behaviors that are at odds w/that knowledge.
"This book, actually, it can be a little confusing..." It's Winnie the Pooh. youtu.be/8uMe-Iydrkk
Get your Novavax/Nuvaxovid covid booster b4 availability ends (more will come out this fall)! Spread the word to ppl in your life who are hesitant abt the mRNA vaxes that Novavax is a more traditional protein-based vaccine & seems to induce longer-lasting antibodies (usually w/fewer side effects).
🚨🧵from Biff aka @Biff234523 on XTwitter, regarding Novavax in the USA for this Spring 2026 (i.e. rn)... "Novavax reminder: You should probably be making plans to get your spring Nuvaxovid booster within the next week, if you’re planning on getting one..." OP: x.com/Biff234523/s...

New York Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai scientists find lung cells send ACE2 and TMPRSS2 in tiny vesicles to other cells, making them vulnerable to COVID-19 and revealing a new infection route. www.nature.com/articles/s41...
I have yet to read this headline without bursting into laughter, and I'm going on ~20 times now. I have to stop. I have things I need to do today, which now includes making waffles.
A top disaster response official has used violent rhetoric, shared conspiracy theories and said he once teleported to a Waffle House. https://cnn.it/4bB5OKd
I recently rewatched David Lynch's "Blue Velvet" after probably 20 years, & the first thing I thought during that initial scene with Frank Booth was how disturbingly similar he seemed to Donald Trump. Good to know I'm not the only one who's thought this... 🤮 thehardtimes.net/culture/trum...
Great time to remember that damage from even mild covid infections- including in vaccinated people- shows up in a multitude of ways.
COVID-19 can also cause organ damage in individuals without symptoms, who would not fall under the current definition of Long COVID. This organ damage, whether symptomatic or not, can lead to various health impacts such as heart attacks and strokes…” doi.org/10.1515/mr-2...
This isn't just a "cringe" attempt at humor- it's more propagandizing to downplay the widespread harms of covid, which are STILL happening. The billionaires lose $$ when ppl don't travel, eat out, etc. It was the AIRLINES- not science- that initially drove the effort to fully open things back up.
RFK Jr's allies are desperately trying to raise funding for a comedy movie about the response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Don't buy when ⬆️ & they'll ⬇️ prices. "'If the customer is still willing to pay that higher price point, do we really take the price down?'

Cocoa prices have fallen nearly 70% since last Valentine's Day, but that won't make heart-shaped boxes of chocolate, or even chocolate Easter bunnies, more affordable this year. https://to.pbs.org/4bU4fZG
This Cointelpro-Os cereal box makes a good point that's also relevant for our current US situation: "Disinformation is widely used by dictators and fascist regimes, but it can also be turned back around on them, sowing chaos, distrust and the collapse of the totalitarian state." Food for thought.
Keep them guessing. And looking over their shoulder for the rest of their lives. #cointelpro

BREAKING: Trump Administration narrative falls apart as new video of horrific shooting revealed. Trump Administration claims victim was an “assassin.” The video proves otherwise. It was murder. open.substack.com/pub/aaronpar...
Not only was Mayor Frey's use of the F word excusable, it was APPROPRIATE, precisely for the same reasons it's normally considered impolite: it's shocking & can convey intense negativity. His use of it signaled anger, contempt, & an unwillingness to "play nice" with government-sanctioned murderers.
WELKER: Do you bear any responsibility to bring down the temperature? FREY: Of course. But I dropped an F bomb and they killed somebody. I think the killing somebody is the inflammatory element here and not the F bomb.
Reposting to remind myself...
A brief, intense workout may do more than boost fitness—it could help fight cancer. Researchers found that just 10 minutes of hard exercise releases molecules into the bloodstream that switch on DNA repair and shut down cancer growth signals. www.sciencedaily.com/releases/202...
Proper info on masking cont. to be relevant as we enter into year 7 of the C19 pandemic, & esp now that many who don't normally mask are considering doing so again spec. bc of flu.
Another example of the junk clinical studies celebrated in Evidence Based Medicine because of methodology alone. Beloved "gold standard" of opinion launderers and cherry pickers, often designed with little or no mechanistic understanding or subject-matter expertise. link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Reposting this just so I can see it on my page for a while. I love this man and miss him as our president.
Biden: So, folks, that's my message to all of us today, to all who love our country, to all of us are dismayed by the present state of the union: it's time to get up, get up and fight back. Get up. Continue to fight. What's the fight all about? Protecting the constitution.
Covid is STILL circulating & causing harm to our brains, hearts, kidneys, etc. The vax- though imp't for reducing severity of acute illness- does NOT prevent infection, transmission, or the long-term damage done by this virus. Btw, asymptomatic cases (~half!) ARE contagious & also cause damage.
COVID isn’t acting like the viruses most of us grew up with, and treating it like “just a cold” is putting people at real risk. David Brasure breaks down why SARS-CoV-2 is fundamentally different, how it causes long-term damage, and what we can do to protect ourselves.
I sincerely appreciate Alt CDC (& all altgov accounts), but a lot of good people- including scientists & healthcare providers- have bought into the false claim that covid is nbd, esp. if you're vaxxed, despite science showing us that's not true. The cognitive dissonance is absolutely maddening.
When are all the "I believe the science" folks going to actually follow the science on covid? Science tells us covid cont to seriously damage the brain, heart, & pretty much every body system, even in young, healthy, vaccinated ppl. MASKS WORK & should be modeled by those claiming to be pro-science.
This is wonderful. Happy Wednesday, everybody!
Protesters disrupted an exclusive Republican Overseas UK dinner, just around the corner from where Trump is staying. This is the way—supporters of the regime must know no peace, no matter where they are. Thank you @fossilfreeldn.bsky.social and all in the UK protesting against this fascist regime!
This doesn't make me think T's ppl DIDN'T plan it... "Miller promised to... 'identify, disrupt, dismantle and destroy' left-wing networks and 'make America safe again for the American people.' “'It will happen, and we will do it in Charlie’s name,' he added." www.huffpost.com/entry/jd-van...
STILL TRYING TO BLAME DEMOCRATS! Utah gov said suspect isn't cooperating but his family is, & that fam believes his time online led to him subscribing to "leftist ideology." I want to know if the "leftist" part is the family's characterization or somebody else's. www.huffpost.com/entry/charli...

There are very, VERY few people who are equipped to talk about this shooter correctly given the brainrot written on the shell casing. You have to understand so much of online culture to get it and also understand how that culture is both connected to and separate from real world ideological spaces
