I ask a lot of ?s. I mean them sincerely.
Overarching goals: reduce premature death & human suffering.
Special interests: gardening, baking, human behavior, medicine, art, animals, politics, interesting objects, learning, film & television, justice
It’s vital to be educated & informed about the fight for recognition, rights, care & compassion. All precious lives lost & set back due to religious zealotry, propaganda, politics & policy

These are the voices you DON’T hear screaming on behalf of equal justice. They were intentionally snuffed out.
On #WorldAIDSDay, we remember those we’ve lost and our commitment to ending stigma, advancing innovative treatments, and finding a cure.
 
HIV/AIDS is not over and we will not give up the fight until it is.

Nailed it. That is precisely who he is.

He targets low hanging fruit who are easily influenced. He learned from the Tea Party and Maga movements.

The left is not immune from propaganda. In fact, it might be more easily influenced.

We are facing Nazis.

It’s unforgivable.

Personally I actually don’t like it when people use my replies as a repository for their angriest feelings because mostly they’re just asking me to absorb that energy without considering that there’s a human on the other end, doing the reading. And I’m not getting paid like their therapisr would be.

I personally don’t go anywhere there are likely unexploded land mines, but for as long as I’ve known about them, they’ve terrified me. I’m not afraid of much, but 60 year old land mines & what happens if… *shudders*

Maybe it was a princess Di influence.

What kind of people do this?

Oh

I see…😔
One of countless unexploded bombs in north-eastern Laos, left by the US during the Secret War (1964–1973). Their presence creates 'exclusion zones' where the land is still unsafe for agriculture or habitation, showing the lasting impact of conflict.

Covid disables children.

Long covid has surpassed asthma as the most common chronic illness in children.

Opinion | The 2024 election was always about pardoning Honduran drug kingpin Juan Orlando Hernández. If Kamala Harris and the Democrats didn't understand that, shame on them.

I’m kind of disappointed.

Today, we're grateful for the farmers who work every day to feed America. They deserve policies that support their livelihoods, open markets for their products, and create demand for what they grow.

NEWS --> BBC confirms to me that they did edit a line out of historian @rutgerbregman.com's speech. It called Trump "the most openly corrupt president in US history."

BBC also confirms this was done on the advice of lawyers. So Trump's threats worked.

First, British Broadcasting Corporation execs resigned after Trump complained about a segment. Now the BBC edited out a line from a historian that was critical of Trump. Where does this end?

Why did so many people like “Doctor Sleep”?

I should know better with Stephen King movies. I only like a select few and they involved some heavy edits. It got good reviews. I thought it was awful. For one thing it could have been 45 minutes shorter and had a little depth of character.

Do you hate the new Vaccines and Autism webpage revisions as much as we do? Yes? Great. Some action items:

1. Submit your concerns through CDC INFO: www.cdc.gov/cdc-info/for...
2. (if not a fed employee) Consider adding "vaccines do NOT cause autism" to your signature line 😈
