Blistering piece from @iandunt.bsky.social on Matthew Goodwin's visit to London.
"The success of London is a point-blank, up-against-the-wall-motherfucker refutation of the right-wing populist world view."

The new Neil Halloran documentary on Smallpox has completely changed how I see the RFK Jr. version of the world. Neil (softly) argues that realizing that disease isn't the fault of the sick /or/ the fault of the Gods ushered in a new future where we felt the authority to care for each other.

On the anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic, we thought we'd answer a question that's often asked,
"If they raised the Mary Rose, why not raise the Titanic?"
Allow our scaled diagram to explain...

Any editors who see this interested in an editorial from two NIH-funded physician researchers on the dismantling of science and public health in the US? It’s clear and compelling, if I do say so myself.

The reason this is such a big deal is that Trumpism, an ideology of pathological insecurity and bullying, requires you to submit. When you don’t submit, it calls everything about them into question, and they can’t handle that. So don’t submit. Defy the fascist scum.
Zelensky should apologize for his dispute with Trump and Vance at the White House, says U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio: “He didn’t need to go there and be hostile. I think he should apologize for wasting our time on a meeting that was bound to end this way.”

Fellow NSA - National Security Agency veterans. Look at what’s happened at the National Cryptologic Museum. They covered up with brown paper the photos of Women in American Cryptology. All in response to President Trump’s anti-diversity executive order.

#PathSky 43M with a giant, pendulous mass of the inner thigh. The outside clinician and pathologist were concerned for WDL, but their MDM2 FISH was negative. Certainly there is nature fat with fibrous septae and an increased number of somewhat atypical stromal cells? False negative FISH?

Thalidomide would like a word...
RFK Jr.’s deputy Jim O’Neill wants to skip clinical trials for medication efficacy and just start selling them to Americans to test if they work post-marketing. No placebo group. Just desperate people trying out snake oil so his company can make money from you being a guinea pig.

There's a really simple test for Schrodinger's Autist:
Explain the broken social rule to the culprit. Is the person mortified and eager to follow that rule going forward? Then the problem was social skills!
Is the person defensive, accusatory, and unrepentant? The problem was NOT social skills!

If your Christianity causes you to be offended by someone asking the most powerful person in the country to be merciful towards the powerless, then you have profoundly misunderstood the teachings of Jesus Christ.
