Christmas is coming. Remember how we pressured ABC to put Kimmel back on with our wallets? Well, many of the fascist oligarchs make a lot of money off of us at Christmas time. Maybe this year, we ignore the big stores and buy local, modest gifts. It's not supposed to be about money anyway.

I talked to a NOAA colleague yesterday who told me that 75% of the federal employees of his division have left and he’s worried about their ability to get work done even if Congress funds NOAA at some level. The devastation to science will be felt for generations.

RFK Jr. just fired thousands of federal workers at crucial health agencies, including the FDA, CDC, and NIH.
These are the people who inspect our food, track infectious diseases, and research life-saving treatments and cures.

I used to work for an independent research company that did studies of the programs for the aging. Caregivers already get almost no support. A few hours one day a month is not enough when that's used for errands and not rest.

The decision leaves the state on the hook for $200 million or more in additional expenses for debris cleanup and other emergency work.
The bottom line: Once again, 45 has said one thing and done another, and sadly, North Carolinians will pay the price.
45 is a sorry S.O.B.

🙋♂️ I was in *the safety trial* for (the original) Gardasil HPV vaccine for males. And I can assure you that I was like this before I got the shots. I can also confirm firsthand that vaccines are tested for safety more times and in more ways than most people will ever be able to comprehend.
