What I really love about @drjudystone.bsky.social besides her insightful commentary is that she is infinitely patient with my lack of responsiveness & still quotes me anyway. I'm barely keeping my head above water because of H5N1 & I'm grateful for her grace. www.forbes.com/sites/judyst...

CDC Bird Flu Response Cuts Could Lead To Another Pandemic
Cutting surveillance for bird flu, combined with RFK Jr's proposed “let ‘er rip” approach to poultry infections would be dangerous. This is why.

So here's the deal: the FEMA director is completely incompetent and probably certifiably insane, so the media cannot report on this because it would make trump look bad

NEW: Long COVID experts are concerned about Canada's new guidelines for "Post-COVID Condition", stating that some recommendations, like exercise, could harm people with the disease. @spichaksimon.bsky.social dives into the guidelines and the how they were created: thesicktimes.org/2025/07/08/e...

Experts call new Canadian Long COVID guidelines “contradictory” and “deeply concerning” - The Sick Times
The guidelines recommend exercise and therapy as Long COVID treatments. Despite his attempts, Paul Garner had no influence on the process.

one reason I've always hated the 'what if Superman was an asshole' subgenre (Homelander, Omni-Man, Injustice, Brightburn etc) is the character was conceived by two Jewish guys as a subversion to the ubermensch fascism pervading life at the time. Superman being kind WAS the edgy thing to create.

The White House has ordered the US Dept. of Justice to prioritize denaturalization: voiding the citizenship of US citizens. Who will it denaturalize? "Any" case that it "determines to be sufficiently important". Point 10 leaves the criteria opaque and arbitrary. substack.com/redirect/169...

So am I reading this court decision correctly? We now have 50 micronations with their own laws interpreting the U.S. Constitution wholly separate from one another? But there's one guy with private law enforcement who is immune from all punishment who can do whatever he wants in those 50 states?

as always, @johnrogers.bsky.social said it best
There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old’s life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially cropped adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs.
