I keep thinking again, in light of the latest Epstein files dump, about how MeToo “went too far.”

Por qué demonios tenemos una economía dictada por personas que buscan ganancia monetaria a corto plazo, sin saber ni interesarse en cómo o por qué se extraen recursos, se fabrican cosas o se brindan servicios.

I will always not regret walking away from the skeptic movement. And yeah, Rebecca was among the (if not THE) first to call out the BS from so many of its stars.
From the comments: "[T]o be mentioned TWICE as a thorn in the side of pedos. That’s a badge of honor I’d wear everyday.
RebeccaWatsonRules"

To be called "a rather nasty young woman," by Richard Dawkins is another badge of honor.

@skepchick.org, always right about these heinous creatures.

Es una cosa esto de que tú no puedas conciliar el sueño porque a veces te llega el recuerdo de una mala decisión que tomaste en tu vida hace quince años, y que al otro lado del charco una panda de encubridores de pedófilos, que se han hecho con el poder de todo un país, puedan dormir a pierna suelta

U.S. ultimatum to vaccine group: No more funds unless you stop using thimerosal

This post is blowing up, so for all the big name journos sharing it, some context:

This was a rally in Chicago explicitly calling for ICE to be abolished, and for a mass general strike to counter the Trump admin's continous attacks on our communities and civil liberties.
It's near-white out conditions in Chicago as the snow comes down, and tonight's anti-ICE/CBP rally is wrapping up in front of city hall.

But not before the crowd bounces and chants, "I believe that we will win!"

But in my opinion, it is untenable for Nathan to appear in our field as a colleague again, it is untenable for reporters not to see this as a notable story in global health - this guy won the fucking Time 100, for fuck's sake - and it is untenable, if true, for him to have an affiliation at Stanford

Looks like somebody - maybe Nathan, maybe somebody else, can't easily link this file to the others and I refuse to get sued for this thread - worked up a full two-pager on how we could commercialize behavior-manipulating compounds in sexually transmitted infections to create a female viagra.

Nathan and Jeffrey appear to have shared a long-term interest in the scientific basis of sexual appetite in women, including options such as rabies; the search for a "female viagra"; and a study trying to find the "horny virus" that makes college girls want to have more sexual partners

Nathan's full name appears 596 times in this Epstein files release, a number many are calling "too many times for someone who continues to cling to our professional networks like a tapeworm dangling out of a dog's asshole"

This is Nathan Wolfe. Nathan is a virus hunter. Nathan has a bit of a reputation. Through the years, I've told multiple journalists stories I've heard, like "Nathan thanks Jeffrey Epstein in his book." Somehow no one ever wrote anything up. Want to see what Nathan was up to in today's Epstein files?

That obscene wealth ensures them immunity.

That's exactly why billionaires must be taxed out of existence.

Allowing anyone that kind of immunity enables fascism and horror.

Years ago, a friend asked me why billionaires want MORE money when they could never spend the tiniest fraction of what they have.

My answer is that they want immunity. The immunity to do literally any horrific they want without consequence.

Nothing I've seen since has changed my mind.

Players. Trust me when I say this.

It's okay for your character to be bad at things, to be scared, and to show weakness. To be totally honest? I think you'll find that imperfect characters are *so much more fun* to play.
