This is seriously the best podcast ever.
Hey we won Best Science pod at the iHeart Awards among some fierce competition. Thanks to everyone who listens & thank you to our small but mighty team.

If you want to convert someone to an Ologite, but don’t know where to start, ologies.com is like a menu of topics.

Science matters. Like, A LOT.

As a career educator, and current elementary school staff member….I will be first in line to get a norovirus vaccine. It’s so easily spread, and so miserable, and can be so dangerous.

A norovirus vaccine could be on the horizon as cases rise
Moderna is testing a norovirus vaccine in a phase three trial. Results could be available as soon as this year.

I’m catching up on the current season of Drag Race and having a midafternoon margarita because why the fuck not nothing makes sense anymore anyway. We spent the weekend in the woods, trying to avoid as much as we could while we still can.

Today, there's lots of people who struggle, this time of year. Be understanding, reach out, let go your differences and be the light even if you don't understand the darkness.

Wishing you all
Doesn't matter what you believe in
A very happy holiday season

WEIRD, BUT TRUE: If Luigi Mangione had killed an unarmed homeless Black man instead of the white millionaire CEO of an insurance company, he could have gone to a football game with Elon Musk's co-President instead of facing life in prison.

As a chronically ill person, this particular pick by Convicted Felon Trump could have a direct effect on the resources I have to keep myself healthy. Fucking nightmare fuel.
Still not over the fact that the man who could be in charge of our health has stocked roadkill in his fridge, had a worm in his brain, is anti-vax, suggested we consume raw milk (despite a raw milk bird flu outbreak) and spoke positively about hardcore drugs.

Like.

What the fuck?

@altnps.bsky.social is a great follow. You get lovely photos of animals and landscapes, and information like this.
Response to Ramaswamy’s Tweet

To Mr. Ramaswamy and Mr. Musk,

The Altnps Coalition strongly opposes your celebration of the Supreme Court’s decision in Loper Bright v. Raimondo. 1/6
