"All is lost" narratives are popular because people generally do not want to take action. Taking action is tiring so if all is lost, you are off the hook. Nothing is more seductive than not having to do anything.

Follow Dorit Reiss, one of the foremost experts on vaccine policy and law, for updates on the catastrophic ACIP proceedings—but only if your blood pressure and nerves can handle it, because what the ACIP kooks are saying is infuriatingly bizarre & unscientific 🤯

Following #ACIP - apparently, ACIP combined the immunization schedule and hepatitis B workgroups - a change not reflected in the ACIP workgroup list, and it was chaired by Dr. Vicki Pebsworth, a director in an anti-vaccine organization, the National Vaccine Information Center.

Update: he shot the deer at dusk, and my pops is a sociologist and not a photographer, so none of the pics came out well at all. A gorgeous 8-point buck.

And just to be 100% clear it is explicitly forbidden in Article 23(d) of the 1907 Hague Convention IV, itself incorporated into domestic law via 18 USC 2441(c)(2). It is a directly enumerated war crime, and giving or acting on that order is prosecutable domestically.

not to be earnest on main, but I am deeply grateful to be on my way to dinner with a family whose Catholicism leads them to love and fight for queer people, for immigrants, for Palestinians, for the unhoused, and for all the marginalized. not every queer person in Trump’s America gets to have that
