Prof. Jacob Bor, commented, “if the US simply performed at the average of our peers, one out of every two US deaths under 65 years is likely avoidable. Our failure to address this is a national scandal.”

Currently only on mice, but this is an amazing development!

Exactly! Health insurance coverage tied to a JOB is the modern method of SLAVERY!!

ICE is out of control in Chicago. Now just tossing tear gas canisters out of the car in the middle of one of our neighborhoods as kids are walking home from school, people out going grocery shopping.

Too many Mbembe quotes that are too on the nose: "The spirit of the time is not only about survival. It is also about a renewed will to kill as opposed to the will to care...to sever all relationships as opposed to the will to engage in the exacting labor of repairing the ties that have been broken"

What type of surveillance, you ask? 37% focused on human bodies (targeting humans in the midst of everyday activities such as walking, shopping), 31% on human body parts (faces, eyes), 17% human spaces (homes, offices, roads), while only 1% of papers & 1% of patents extracted only non-human data

Attacking the food supply is one of the aims in a siege.

Yes. I have a piece in the pipeline about "illness as policy" & it will be so behind the necropolitical times when it comes out. I know that's part of the point of the tactic of flooding the zone with death.

Thank you, New York Times. I like the word 'mighty', but the truth (as I see it) is that since writing it, my book has become pretty non-radical, given how events in the world are unfolding.

Looking at GenAI costs in healthcare: For medical billing, a local AI model was more accurate and faster than GPT-4. Meanwhile, using commercial LLMs at scale could incur annual API costs of $115k to $4.6M, posing a significant financial challenge for healthcare systems.

They're human beings in need of medical care and you're a Catholic

This is why CMS has been less affected than other places (even though it's being run by a reality TV personality), cuz the details of what CMS does would put C-SPAN watchers to sleep 😂

"Many people still have an elderly relative who survived a bout of severe childhood illness; not one of us has an elderly relative who did not."

This is the best and perhaps most important illustration of sample selection i have seen in a good long while.

Sigh ... whilst in AU ... www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

You cannot have a functioning classroom under these conditions. As I've said before, classroom surveillance has been a much bigger and more damaging change to campus than wokeness.

Immigrant rights groups are desperate for funding to help hire more lawyers. Meanwhile, we also live in this country. sfstandard.com/2025/09/27/s...

Nobody cares about the victims in the Dallas ICE shooting apparently. The first I've heard about one of them was on CNN today. He's fighting for his life in the hospital --- he was brought to the US when he was 13. He's 33 now. No criminal record.

I just don't know what to say anymore.

Its a real 1000 years of darkness day. The right has been so effective at destroying any mode of communication the left is talking about ezra klien, who is essentially a peice of shit on a stick billionaries use to shove in the faces to punish them for getting out of line.

This happened the other night and I couldn’t go because of teaching but found it online.

Every word of the piece is outstanding, and Táíwò really sticks the landing:

This is the official communication from the FDA to physicians on acetaminophen use in pregnancy.
- They acknowledge the lack of a causal link with autism
- Essentially tell physicians to keep doing what we've been doing anyway
It's very different from the press conference.
Pass it on.
