Brigitte Bardot called for a nationwide ban on kosher food in France and was married to the political adviser of a Holocaust denier. But sure, a great opponent of antisemitism...
I'd forgotten Bardot's history and only started to remember after seeing this by the "Ambassador, Director of the Digital Diplomacy Bureau, Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs"

This is one of the reasons the “Covid is just a flu” narrative always bothered me.

It minimized the risk of COVID while also downplaying the severity of the flu.

The flu is not a joke. It can & does kill. It can & does disable.

Please get vaccinated.

A well fitted mask like an N95 helps too!
The death of any child is tragic. We always think it will not be my child, they are healthy. Severe influenza can be unpredictable & deadly. Getting vaccinated considerably reduces dz severity and deaths. Please make sure you are vaccinated & your children are too.

In a moment where RFK Jr is taking away life-saving vaccines and spreading health misinformation on an unprecedented scale, making comments that stigmatize other important layers of public health protections like mask wearing is not the play.

Gal Beckerman wrote a whole article about the fake decapitated babies- so I don’t think they are the best person to write about emotion.
A common assumption is that throughout history, people have experienced the same basic range of emotions. A radical field of history now challenges this assumption, Gal Beckerman reports. theatln.tc/KD2QRX9Y

It’s much easier to find a job or treat a drug addiction when your basic needs like food and shelter are being met.

That’s why “Housing First” policies are so important.

These cuts will force more people onto the streets.

They will increase suffering.

They will increase job insecurity.

Something that's getting lost in this story is that the "instructor" in question is not a professor with a PhD; she is a Graduate Teaching Assistant, meaning the University of Oklahoma has thrown one of ITS OWN STUDENTS under the bus to appease a right wing grifter who tried to dunk on a trans woman

The University of Oklahoma has removed an instructor who was accused by a student of religious discrimination over a failing grade on a psychology paper in which she cited the Bible and argued that promoting a “belief in multiple genders” was “demonic.” https://cnn.it/4b6g3rd

look at how little effort it takes for someone on the conservative grievance circuit to destroy a life

millions of college kids have half assed an assignment at the last minute, you eat the F and move on

but the effort to push trans people out of public life will use whatever it can get
Worth noting that the student admits that she just threw the thing together in 30 minutes without reading the paper she was supposed to be responding to.

the least shocking thing in the epstein files that wont get enough attention. police regularly arrest and charge victims to coerce them into participating, often jailing them in conditions that are worse.
jesus the Palm Beach Police really sought arrest warrants against underage Epstein victims for coming forward and cooperating, and (purported) admitting to crimes, and it caused the victims to become uncooperative with the federal investigation

Bari’s complaint was “there’s nothing new here” and while that’s untrue it’s also irrelevant

Remember as you watch this that the Venezuelans were only set free from CECOT because the Venezuelan government ransomed them back. Not because the US decided it was doing something horrifically wrong.

I looked at the report's "peer review" addendum pdf (not how peer review works) and Reviewer 1 is the APA. The entire American Psychiatric Association. Who disagreed strongly with the report.

Other "peers" (transphobes with postgrad degrees) are more approving. This is used to dismiss Reviewer 1.
Trans youth healthcare is based in decades of research and supported by every major medical organization in the US. Under RFK Jr, a handpicked panel produced a dodgy report claiming otherwise.

It's a clear example of Kennedy's war on science. So why aren't news organizations treating it that way?

This isn’t a shift. We have never been allowed to see in detention centers a feature of this country for decades. No one plasters dead bodies on the screen to promote war. Fascism thrives on the rhetoric of violence, but people don’t like to see how it marks bodies- thus censorship.
Worth noting, I guess, that inside of a year we've gone from administration officials taking selfies of themselves at CECOT and bragging about how it's hell on earth to now getting their horrible little media worms to kill stories about it
