Just came across this on Mastodon and thought I'd share it for anyone wondering if adding image alt text is "worth it."

If you stopped wearing masks, you can start again anytime! At *least* while you’re traveling! Don’t ruin your holidays with covid or flu.
it’s an amazing time to wear a well-fitted face mask, preferably an N95

Just randomly thinking that as a disabled student who became a disabled faculty member who is now finding teaching in the gAI age incredibly debilitating, disabled people do not get to be uncritical of gAI, or indeed, anything as access technologies, simply because we are disabled.

RFK Jr. is going to end CDC recommendations for most childhood vaccines.
It will take a few years before the deaths and disabilities ramp up to a level that even the most vile Republican cannot tolerate.
RFK Jr. will be long gone and unaccountable, as our babies die from preventable illness.

If you're not trans, I don't think I can fully explain how important this is.
It's so powerful that one of the most circulated science media publications in the world has come out and said "trans children are real and providing transition care improves their lives." That's groundbreaking.

The name "Popular Science" doesn't mean we shift our coverage depending on public opinion. It means we cover relevant subjects that are rigorously researched, reliable, and grounded in reality.
And trans lives are grounded in reality.
We see y'all. No matter what.

First-of-a-kind study shows encouraging data for trans kids who socially transition
Ninety-four percent of participants in a new study stood firm in their trans identity after five years, and "detransitioning" is rare.

Jesse Hamm had the take to end all takes on children's media. "People who disdain writing ‘just for children’ fail to realize that those children will remember what they read, maybe for the rest of their lives. You’re not writing for permanent children; you’re getting an early start on adults.”

One of my new arguments against AI is that even if it was a good tool, human beings are not in a place to be able to use it without harm. We don't live in ideal world where this benefits mankind. We live in this world where it benefits the rich and fucks the rest of us.
OBVIOUSLY do not use AI, at all. AT ALL, for anything. I don’t wanna hear about the theoretical good version, it’s not what they’re pushing on us. The absolute worst people in the world have gone all in on this shit, and it needs to be starved out as much as possible. AI: not even once!
Sec. Hegseth rolled out the U.S. military’s new AI platform, GenAi.Mil, with a link to an empty website. trib.al/tbCJAkT
Predictably, the platform can’t actually be accessed from external networks, but the wonky rollout triggered eyerolls across the internet.

This deserves more attention to how damaging it is:
* In some states 40%+ of all hospitals are Catholic church-run
* Applies to urgent cares, specialists and doctors too. Church-run networks are buying/taking over more
* Plenty of insurance only covers care at church-run systems in a given area

U.S. Catholic bishops recently banned trans care throughout the church's sprawling healthcare systems.
@davidforbes.bsky.social delves into how this fits the institution's long history of hatred and abuse, a direction that has not changed despite its recent p.r. shifts.

As a bioethicist, I also feel the need to add that the central issue with eugenics is “it’s evil” not “it’s factually incorrect.” And if we finally learned that, maybe big name bioethicists wouldn’t publish “what if eugenics but hi-tech” every five years.
1. Historically, eugenics was not a pseudoscience. It was *science* Almost every scientist, social scientist, academic, etc. believed in the validity of eugenics. You would have to search far & wide to find a scientist that didn't believe in some form of it. They taught it in college!
