Fox News complains that underage teenage girls aren't getting pregnant enough:
"The problem is teens and young adults. From ages 15-19, the fertility rate is down 70% in the last 2 decades, which means we are telling people who are young not to have babies."

I will destroy you in the most beautiful way possible. And when I leave you will finally understand, why storms are named after people.

Is your measles vaccine still good? It depends on when you got it and how many. www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditi…

Mayo Clinic: If you got the measles vaccine offered between 1963 and 1968, you'll need to get vaccinated again. The vaccine from that time doesn't give you long-term protection from measles. And if you only got one shot of the measles vaccine, you may need to get another dose. This is true for people at high risk during an outbreak, college students, healthcare professionals and people who travel widely.

If you're not sure if you need the measles vaccine, talk with your healthcare professional. The measles vaccine available for adults in the United States is the MMR vaccine.
Preventing measles during an outbreak or known infection
When measles starts to spread in a community, health departments in the area may suggest other precautions. Second shots for children may be moved up, and earlier vaccination of infants may be discussed with families. If you have had two shots of the MMR vaccine, it isn't recommended that you get a third dose during an outbreak.

4-o’clocks smell so nice. Like the finest French soaps.

A profusion of small white trumpet flowers, maybe half the size of morning glories, adorn a bushy green plant. This one plant got to be almost 5 feet tall before it leaned over into a 2-meter diameter bush. Most of the others are more compact. The blooms open and close in the cooler mornings and again in the afternoons.

Screenshot of an old-school forum captcha page that popped up when I searched for Oregon. First is a gnarly letter captcha challenge, then "Is mango a fruit?" a domain knowledge question, then a word-math challenge of four plus three, and finally the trick question: What color is a mangosteen? I failed there by guessing orange. Error: "You did not answer the verification questions correctly." I had to ask Google in order to succeed. Ahh, the irony never stops.

Heartbreaking: The Worst Person You Know Just

A conspiracy infographic (photos circles and arrows, text) that reverses every Q-anon point made about former US President Obama as if the conspiracy is actually them.

WHAT IF "THE FIRST AFRICAN AMERICAN PRESIDENT"...
...WASN'T FROM AFRICA AT ALL?

Throughout his campaign, Barack Obama played up his exotic background.

But new evidence PROVES that
"Barack Hussein Obama" from Kenya...

..is really just
Barry Obama from Hawaii!

No reporter has
EVER found a Kenyan who remembers knowing
Obama as a child

Obama's father got a scholarship to University of Hawall in
1959 - just two years before Obama was born!

If he was really born in Kenya, where's his birth
certificate?

Obama's mother
Ann has light skin, like many Americans - but UNLIKE almost

Immigrant-loving, anti-American liberals would be DEVASTED [sic] to learn their precious Obama is no immigrant at all, but from America- the very country they are against!
