HUGE new study of >1.2 million kids looked to see if the aluminium contained was associated with a number of childhood conditions. Long story short: NO association with ANY of them. The tiny amount of aluminium in vaccines is safe. #Vaccineswork

Another idea is that if you say the word "blockchain" then regulators will get confused, traditional securities laws won't apply, and you'll be able to sell financial assets - private-company stock, real estate, etc. - without complying with the US Securities and Exchange Commission's registration and disclosure requirements.

The period of time where being pregnant in public or breastfeeding in public was taboo is, in the scheme of human history, incredibly short and limited in scope, and I for one am not going to engage with it.

Once again pointing out that you don't actually have to like a victim to denounce sexual abuse. The idea that women must be likable has cost women promotions, the presidency, & accountability for abuse. If you only believe victims & denounce abuse if you like them, you endorse sexual abuse as a tool

It's hard to understand how the big right wing brains behind P2025 thought that firing the experts needed to predict weather and issue warnings was going to reduce mention of climate change, thus benefiting their beloved non-renewable energy industry. Though much of the media obey in advance now.

USAID now stands for Unleashing Subsidies for the Affluent In Disguise. Trump’s loading up the aid truck—with sacks of gold for billionaires. No food. No meds. Just tax breaks for those choking on caviar. Humanitarianism is dead. Long live the donor class. #USAID

USAID didn’t fail. It fed 127,000 kids—then was erased mid-crisis. No speech. No tribute. Just silence. They didn’t end a program. They liquidated a covenant. The last American promise not built on conquest—but care. 🔗 thelastmilewithusaid.substack.com

Americans have really got to unlearn the propagandist indoctrination that socialism is bad. It means that everyone has what they need, resources are shared, and we care for the earth & those around us. We've been taught to hate it so capitalists can keep exploiting us and working us to death.

The Senate GOP passed the largest wealth transfer in US history yesterday. It includes a $975 billion income tax break for the 1%, the largest cut to food stamps in history, and a 60% increase in the number of uninsured Americans. This is a dramatic escalation in class warfare.
