Just a reminder, if you are "pro life" and "anti vax" then no, you aren't really. Pick a lane. Pertussis is deadly especially to newborns.
They did this in Louisiana and currently have their worst pertussis outbreak in 35 years. Ridiculous.
NEW: Officials at the Indian Health Service have deemed terms like “immunizations” and “vaccines” risky “buzzwords” that require approval to be used in social media posts, pamphlets and presentations for patients.

... his personal delusions and inability to understand the decades of research and testing that prove vaccines are safe and do not cause autism. The move will inevitably increase child mortality in the US and that blood will be on his hands and anyone who enabled his rise.
Breaking News: Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said he personally instructed the CDC to abandon its position that vaccines do not cause autism. The move underscores his determination to challenge scientific orthodoxy — in this case, that vaccines save lives — and bend the health department to his will.

In an interview, Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. cited gaps in vaccine safety research. His critics say he is ignoring a larger point: Vaccines save lives.

Gonna just follow with 1 I think QUANTITY of material matters more, if all you hear is headlines repeated by your friend group on facebook etc. 2 I think it would be hilarious to continue this from June till now, bc I am reasonably convinced you see no uptick at all in the Trump numbers and age etc
Breaking character: I am open to the idea the media's coverage of Biden's age and mental acuity was fair or perhaps not even tough enough. But the fact that it was so much tougher than the coverage of Trump's (more severe) mental decline is damning and I can't see how anyone could argue otherwise.

“Which means that Copenhagen, a city of 1.2 million people, saves $357 million a year on health costs because something like 80% of its population commutes by bike.” #CityMakingMath

Copenhagen, the bicycle-friendliest place on the planet, publishes a biannual Bicycle Account, and buried in its pages is a rather astonishing fact.

I gotta say it was fun to wake up and find a brand new and well researched article supporting my vibe that politics needed a 3d axis, left and right being insufficient cuz most folks DGAF about ideology. TLDR this is why you have a Spanberger and a Mamdani. And why the moderate debate is stupid AF.
Good morning. I've got a banger new post out today that develops a new method for placing voters on the left-right ideological spectrum, and adds a new, "non-ideological"/affordability axis to usual way we chart & think about US voters (esp swing voters). www.gelliottmorris.com/p/not-just-l...
Not just left vs right: Most voters think about affordability and material wellbeing, not in ideological terms
Most voters want a party that emphasizes cost of living issues and makes the world a better place. Few Americans think in solidly ideologically terms. "Moderates" are mostly non-ideological.

A dead sperm whale has washed up on Nantucket for the first time in decades. It’s too big to move — at least until officials figure out a plan.
Dead Sperm Whale on Nantucket Is Too Big to Move, for Now
A local nonprofit said the 52-ton mammal is “far too big, awkward and heavy to remove.” A town official later said it could be dragged out to sea by Thanksgiving.
