I am pushing legislation to make sure ALL FDA-approved forms of contraception—including birth control pills, IUDs, and more–are COVERED for patients. No fees. No hurdles. No out-of-pocket costs.

Trump - “If you're gonna win, you're gonna not buy oil from Russia” Trump, the convicted felon, the rapist, has long criticized buyers of Russian oil. Today he decided to become one of them. And rubber stamp the US as a Russian asset and trading partner. #cdnpoli

Cancer treatment often meant one-size-fits-all. What if it was tailored to *you*? A personalized mRNA vaccine (EVM16) just completed its first human trial (Phase 1a) with promising safety and strong immune responses. It's teaching bodies to fight *their own* cancer cells.

Word of the day: Sealioning I have encountered this phenomenon very often, especially with anti-vaxxers. It has a concrete definition. This describes science deniers who appear to be genuinely curious about a topic but won’t accept any evidence that goes against their narrative. 🧪
Sealioning
A subtle form of trolling involving "bad-faith" questions.
You disingenuously frame your conversation as a sincere request to be enlightened, placing the burden of educating you entirely on the other party. If your bait is successful, the other party may engage, painstakingly laying out their logic and evidence in the false hope of helping someone learn. In fact you are attempting to harass or waste the time of the other party, and have no intention of truly entertaining their point of view. Instead, you react to each piece of information by misinterpreting it or requesting further clarification, ad nauseum. The name "sea-lioning" comes from a Wondermark comi
