I cleared out our bread basket which had accumulated several months of breads, varied in both type and mold-level.

"are you saying the parents who saw changes in their kids post MMR are lying?!?!"

No, I'm saying that the first dose of MMR is typically administered around the same time that many symptoms of autism start to manifest.

Lots of people die on Tuesdays. Tuesdays don't cause death.

GLENN: Why don't you wear a suit? You're at the highest level in this country's office & you refuse to wear a suit. A lot of Americans have problems with you not respecting the office.

If the US blocks access to HRT, ADHD drugs, and SSRIs, I cannot begin to describe to you how much all of the tech sector will screech to a halt. The internet is built and maintained by trans people, people with chronic depression, and the neurodivergent.

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.
