maybe I'm just jaded from spending my entire adult life watching sexual abuse committed with impunity, but i dont think X will suffer any consequences.
society likes to pretend it cares about sexual violence, but actually doesn't.

X basically industrialized the creation of fake porn of women who don't consent. Others did it first, but Grok made it normalized and centralized: publicly visible, instantly creatable by anyone, regardless of who's being targeted and dehumanized. Only question now is will X suffer any consequences

I just left the Venezuela briefing.
It's worse than you thought.
Oil company executives seem to know more about Trump's secret plan to "run" Venezuela than the American people.
We need public Senate hearings NOW.

Absolutely horrific details about an ICE shooting in Minneapolis.
A witness says a woman was trying to drive away from an ICE operation and the ICE agent "reached across the hood of the car and shot her in the face like three, four times."
Bovino was there.

Greenland sharks can live to 400+ yrs.
Retaining the ability to SEE that long is remarkable, but they also deal with high pressures, low temps & almost universal eye parasites, a type of copepod crustacean.
The remarkable finding here for me is that they can see IN SPITE OF THE PARASITES.

Finally out! We studied the retinas of the longest-living vertebrate, the Greenland shark, and found that the retinas remain remarkably healthy in animals around 150 years old. What is the mechanism? It may be a highly efficient DNA repair system. Enjoy!

This is so important.
I’ve taken care of children who didn’t die from their vaccine preventable illness but instead
-lost limbs
-developed kidney failure requiring dialysis
-had strokes and permanent deficits
Death isn’t the only bad outcome.
And sometimes it may not be the worst one.

The narrative over the last few years has increasingly been, “Either it kills you or you’re fine.”
That narrative is dumb. Infectious diseases can (and do!) do all sorts of horrible, non-fatal damage. Which is also very bad and worth preventing.

The CDC changed the universal vaccine schedule & no longer recommends
Rotavirus
Hepatitis A & B
Meningitis
Influenza
RSV
I’ve cared for previously healthy kids who died from RSV, influenza and meningitis.
We all are going to be caring for a lot more now.
