Despite being quite illiberal (or is it?) in my society vaccinations wld be mandatory. It's all about part of the social contract.

Hundreds of children in multiple states are in quarantine and on remote learning due to measles outbreaks.

The decline in MMR vaccinations has resulted in the US experiencing an increase of measles cases with 1563 total cases & 3 deaths since January.

Ugh! The Republican isn't far beneath the top layer, coming now with this shit. Bill Kristol does better.

This week in 1988: 1,000+ ACT UP demonstrators shut down the FDA headquarters, demanding (and eventually winning) action on developing HIV/AIDS treatments. ACT UP's militant and creative actions always included powerful visual artwork, and paved the way for movements in the decades to come.

A photograph from the 1988 ACT UP demonstration outside the FDA. Many people are participating in a die-in on the front steps, holding mock tombstones with messages like "RIP - killed by the FDA" and "Dead from lack of drugs." A line of police officers (some with classic 80s mustaches) wearing riot helmets stands between them and the building; one cop wearing white gloves is walking through the demonstrators. Affixed to the 2nd story windows of the building is a series of posters and a large blank banner reading Silence = Death.

Rodgers is unvaccinated.

The other 3 (5?) Qbs of the AFCNorth are vaccinated.

Need I say more.

I'm not ok with Ledos representing Maryland pizza representative

Food Republic @foodrepublic.bsky.social · 6h

Maryland style pizza is made from a rectangular dish, rather than a round one, uses provolone rather than mozzarella, has a sweet sauce, and a laminated crust.

Can one be more transparent about wanting a position at CBS

This is really smart. Amazed at the hysteria over the ascendance of a woman entrepreneur who clearly knows how to cover and sell news and who's not afraid to take on a mob. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

The new editor in chief of CBS News triumphs over her critics.

This two-parter below is exactly why it's hard to make clothes in the United States.

Let's look at how much it costs to produce a button-up shirt in the US. 🧵

Someone on Twitter replies to me: "meh. buy american or stfu."

Two hours later, in a separate thread, the write: "$30 for a single button-up is ridiculous unless it is decent quality silk."

This was the first movie we watched with the new VHS player. my stepdad was a King fan. There was no escaping my love of horror.
