I, for one, am tired of [gestures broadly]. I have grown weary of [points in all directions simultaneously].

Not a single word to help the 33m small businesses in this country. Not from anyone in the administration.

So many buy from China, and don't have alternatives.

So many didn't have the cash to front run the tariffs and buy inventory

Keats and Co. legit makes the best tea in the U.S., delivers it to your house for less than a dollar a cup, AND donates all its profit to fight tuberculosis. Win-win-win. good.store/collections/...

EVERYTHING IS TUBERCULOSIS is a #1 New York Times bestseller!

THANK YOU to everyone who has read this little book and responded to it so generously. It's been a long time since a book about TB topped bestseller lists, and I'm so grateful to know more people are learning about this needless scourge.

USE ALT TEXT

IT'S GOOD FOR EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE. KEYWORDS GET PICKED UP BY SEARCH AND FEEDS. IT HELPS PEOPLE WHO USE SCREEN READERS. WE LOVE ALT TEXT IN MY HOUSE.

Bluesky is a great site but you have to unlearn EVERYTHING Twitter has ever taught you to make it useable.

Repost yourself. Interact with others. Use tags. Use feeds. Be kind and find kindness. Comment away. It's really really freeing.

It’s important for folks in their 40s/50s/60s to realize that some of us should get a measles booster. I did a few years ago

This is very bad.
First, they said postponed; now the meeting is canceled. That means no flu shots next year.

“'It’s a six-month production cycle,' Dr. Offit said. 'So one can only assume that we’re not picking flu strains this year.'"

Fundamentally, that's a form of mass murder.

F.D.A. Cancels Meeting of Vaccine Experts Scheduled to Advise on Flu Shots
The cancellation plays into fears among scientists who worry that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will use his position as health secretary to sow doubts about vaccines.

We are experiencing an assault on science unparalleled by anything I’ve seen in my life. It’s not one issue or another anymore, the entire institution is under attack by the most powerful individuals in the country.

This Friday, where will you be?

In my video about this I made the case that knowing there’s a 3% chance an asteroid will hit us is amazing news because at any other point in history we would have no idea at all.

But it also sucks: modern life is too full of things to worry about that, previously, we just wouldn’t know existed.
