Reports are coming in that Trump-era ICE agents have arrested even American-born citizens during raids. If you’re just heading to work or the grocery store, how would you prove you’re an American? This is getting out of hand—Americans have a right to privacy.

Just a non-gentle reminder of this guy's past. People knew who he was and what he stood for. His resume was blatantly clear. Now, he is doing the same on a massive scale and with help.

The Google AI results at the top of searches are so pointless. We have a resource (the internet!) that knows everything, and instead of going to the source, it's like you asked your stupid cousin who is trying to recall the information from a podcast he heard last week.

Measles high infection rate is the reason we have not yet been able to eradicate it. That rate means you need a very high vaccination rate to prevent outbreaks. It is possible, but not with current levels of institutional distrust.
The average person with the flu gives it to around 1.4 people. The average person with measles gives it to between 12 and 18 people.
