Australia just recorded zero cervical cancer cases in women under 25 for the first time since records began in 1982. The amazing result of HPV vaccination.

If you've never called and listened to the message, do it. Sometimes we all need to feel not so alone and foundering, and that can happen often these days.

There is a post circulating on Bluesky encouraging the moving of a frozen turkey straight into a pot of hot oil. We are combating this misinformation the best way we know how - through the power of dance music.

I'd love for someone to explain to me why Mamdani is getting gleeful praise for meeting with trump, but Whitmer was trashed and people said that ended her presidential aspirations.

I’m starting my annual reminders of turkey thaw times.
Some of y’all might be surprised that you should be starting TODAY 😂
I say this because you’ll want to give yourself time to season the turkey for a day or 2. Nobody wants an unseasoned or dry turkey.

"Fuck Grandma this Christmas" is quite the message.
Fox guest on how to save money during the holidays:
"Remember, adults don't need gifts. Focus on the people in your life who are aged 3 to 18. Grandma doesn't need slippers. If they don't live by you, don't get them a gift."

Acton: I’m running against a guy, Vivek Ramaswamy, who has said that people are struggling in Ohio because they’re lazy, they’re mediocre, they’re not working hard enough. And I can absolutely tell you that is not the Ohioans I know or see. I think he’s completely out of touch.

This is the part about Platner that pisses me off the most.
Even if I bought all of his bullshit about the posts, the tattoo, etc. and believed that he really is a Changed Man yadda yadda yadda…
…ok, fine: Run for city council or county commissioner or something first, not for the U.S. Senate.

No reaching out to communities that were affected by the rhetoric and actions. Just jump on a podcast with a bro and get a softball interview while getting your ass kissed 💋

There were literally congressional hearings where whistleblowers in the insurance industry cried while discussing being forced by superiors to repeatedly illegally deny payment for lifesaving care in the run up to the passage of the ACA. That’s what republicans want us to return to.

Yup. I said this earlier today, but it was only a guess. Thanks for confirming it. It is no coincidence that of the 8 who came forward to do this, none of them are running in 2026. But they ran cover for some who are.
