The replies and quotes to this were full of polio vaccine and antibiotics but dudes. Smallpox. We eradicated smallpox so hard that people don't even think about it anymore. A disease that is estimated to have killed 300 million people in the 20th century alone is just GONE.

I encourage MAHA to avoid doctors altogether and simply consult an LLM instead. This is a fantastic idea. You should all do this. Never make use of health care services again. You're very smart.

Detroiter Nicole Williams when asked if Abdul El-Sayed is ‘a bit too left wing to win in Michigan’: “At this point what do we have to worry about? Anything but what we have. We're on our way to hell, so at this point: socialist, socialize, social, dont matter to me, lower my cost of living!”

There is an international, well-connected network of fascists promoting far-right candidates in elections (and coups) across the world. The guy who owns the site Yglesias posted this on is one of their leaders. Be careful of people advocating for their opponents to disarm!

The plaintiffs argue they are losing access to vital information media outlets covering Trump used to provide.

So much to say about Brazil, not least of which is the role that Erika Hilton, a Black trans leader and most voted woman politician in Brazil, played in mobilizing folks for Lula. She was behind the critical, concrete, economic promise of shorter work-week. theprint.in/feature/erik...

It's the week before Hallowe'en so I'm doing my best to open the floodgates on my Larchives for my Patreons. Spending time scheduling things. If you enjoy my work you can get more of it. Patreon.com/LardeSouza

My pal Danielle Koenig shared that her father Walter Koenig passed away last night at age 90. A performer whose kindness and warmth shone through the screen. He will be well remembered.

Evergreen post.

What...?

Persistence? Unwanted attention? Trying to reach someone on multiple platforms? Ignoring boundaries? Halloween is creepy enough. Don't be a creep!

They called the cops on this 3-year-old Black boy because he was kickin the white kids' ass on the soccer field.

Unbelievable loss. An amazing talent, and just a really, really good person. www.instagram.com/p/De8RFy4pyov/

Leftist president mounts stunning comeback after unexpected first round loss galvanised supporters of Flavio Bolsonaro.

Every time I hear some cis person say "it's just sports, that's not a human right," I think about this poast and a little bit of me dies inside. "I am tired of being discriminated against and having things I love and sometimes need taken from me because of hate and ignorance." 💔

RT if you've never had a tab of ChatGPT open, period.

I have had a very bad day, but I don't really feel like being alone. So we'll see how it goes. Chat, play some Balatro, all of that. I don't know how long it will last, but it'd be nice to have you stop by.

Huh. "Police Squad!" is coming to Netflix on November 1. That's another of those shows that has either never or almost never been streaming anywhere.

From the Larchives :)

This is my Not-Mom. She's always accepted me when others in my family didn't. She's got Stage 4 Thyroid Cancer. She means so much to me. She's got two kids and I don't want them to have the burden of cost if we can help them. gofund.me/e497f4c29

I SAID STOP THE CAR THEY GOT SHONGLES

found out that my mother in law decided she was aggressively pro trans rights literally by going, I don't know anything about this but everyone who is against trans rights is also against free school lunch, the issue I know and care a lot about, so this must be the correct way to feel about this

Maxis fucking prints money. They do it cheap and they crank out packs and updates on the regular, and Sims fans devour them. They are the proverbial cash cow. So why lay those people off when you're trying to cover an $18 billion buyout debt? This is why leveraged buyouts should be illegal.
