In a study following 23 million people age 18-59 (pretty young) for 4 years…despite the fact that the ones who got the COVID vaccine were overall older and sicker at baseline, they not only had 74% lower risk of dying from COVID than the unvaccinated but 25% lower risk of dying from any other cause!

It's an old and obvious pattern. An unpopular president - failing on the economy and losing his grip on power at home - decides to launch a war for regime change abroad.
The American people don’t want to “run” a foreign country while our leaders fail to improve life in this one.

"The Human's world ends soon," said the cat.
"Again?" said the dog.
"They are fond of endings and beginnings. Even if nothing changes."
The dog whined.
"Same procedure as last year?" said the cat.
"Please."
The cat lay on the dog's head and purred, muffling the fireworks.

U.S. Democracy fails when we convince ourselves that voters are always right & should be told what they want to hear to earn their vote.
Actually, a healthy democracy MUST contradict voters. Leaders MUST tell ignorant voters what they NEED to hear when they don't know how the world works. 🧵

Affordability concerns are real because:
- Tariffs raise import costs
- Deportations make it harder to harvest crops
- Attacking Obamacare hikes premiums
- Budget deficits raise mortgage payments
- Undermining the Fed risks inflation.
It's not a hoax; it's a policy choice.

@johngreensbluesky.bsky.social learned in the latest vlogbrothers video that you also have aphantasia. I for the longest time thought that the phrase "picture something in your mind" was just a metaphor and can commiserate with your difficulty playing chess as a result. See moves ahead?!!?

The only sort of gifted kid complaint I have as an adult is in retrospect my ADHD was so obvious but at the time it was called “gifted but doesn’t apply herself” and so for decades I was just convinced I was a bad person instead of a person whose brain is actually 3 squirrels in a pinball machine

ICE agents are corralling people in the US for the crime of looking like possible immigrants. Meanwhile, Mexican firefighters are supporting flood victims in TX, saying “there are no borders” when it comes to helping.

This is not about the merits of Iran’s nuclear program. No president has the authority to bomb another country that does not pose an imminent threat to the US without the approval of Congress. This is an unambiguous impeachable offense.
