Just to make it very clear where I stand—I am a huge fan of vaccination, it has saved literally millions of lives and is a force for great good in this world

I’m currently in a vaccine trial and volunteer with vaccine involvement work (ask me about involvement!)

GenAI truly was the worst technology to come along at this moment.

An energy and water guzzler when we most urgently need to take climate action.

A disinformation machine as our journalism fails.

A bias machine as fascism takes root.

A job killer in a cost of living crisis.

The "cognitive decline and brain damage from repeat COVID infections" and "easy to use robot that makes slop and melts your critical thinking skills" is a hell of a combo in a post-fact media ecosystem

“I’m worried about my community… I’m out here in a frog costume to show how ridiculous the notion that we’re violent terrorists is, and showcase how that narrative is wrong…”

Serious Q: is it too late to give this dude the Nobel Peace Prize? 🐸 🏆

It’s an evening dress worn by Empress Maria Feodorovna, 1880-83, currently in the State Hermitage Museum in St Petersburg.

I suspect that @rosewind.bsky.social would kill to own it.

The Trump administration and its allies have taken several steps to ensure that medical schools in the US dismantle all diversity, equity, and inclusion policies.

It is patients who will be the victims of this, write @gavinyamey.bsky.social and @michaeldgreen.com

1. There may be some kind of personal animosity against Nobel Peace Prize candidates who refuse responsibility for anything bad, demand adulation for anything good, and do everything in their power to conceal notorious lists of child-trafficking suspects from the public

TEN POSSIBLE EXPLANATIONS FOR WHY THE NOBEL COMMITTEE REJECTED DONALD TRUMP FOR THIS YEAR’S NOBEL PEACE PRIZE

10. They probably had no idea he wanted one

9. For a peace agreement between Israel and Hamas to truly be considered Nobel-worthy, it must last longer than 45 seconds

Even in the USA (and I know Americans simply cannot conceive that >95% of people are NOT AMERICAN) the RATES over TIME of circumcision and autism don’t show the faintest correlation?

And, WHAT ABOUT GIRLS?

You can have autism without having a penis

It’s Friday, I’m in love and wearing cherries!
Cherries on the dress, necklace and earrings

Also—the dress has pockets
Rosewind in a classic 1950s tea dress style dress with sweetheart neckline —she is in the “it’s got pockets one-hand only” pose. The dress is black with red and green poppy motif, picked up by her jewelry Rosewind’s hand with black nail polish and large chunky silver rings and three silver troll bead bracelets
