mind you part of this is also because there's some category of doctors who seem quick to dismiss that COVID/repeated viral infections can actually fuck up your body long-term because I had asthma prior to this but not with as much of these issues, especially not as consistently.

So now I just wasted multiple SPECIALIST copays on a doctor who is not interested in treating me, and apparently does not see literally feeling like I cannot functionally breathe well (which is now backed by irrefutable data) as an issue we should maybe address beyond treatments that haven't worked

non-disabled people really do not talk about (because they do not experience) how fucking awful the medical system treats chronically ill patients and I haaate it. Literally just got testing that shows EXACTLY WHAT IS HAPPENING w/ my breathing issues, and my doctor is dismissing them as "not severe"

Just had this from Planet Labs, the US government have asked satellite imagery providers for "voluntarily" restrictions on access to satellite imagery. Given a lot of them provide satellite imagery to the USG we can probably guess the outcome of not acquiescing to that request.

I think like, people really just need to take a step back and understand the actual impacts of shit before speaking on it. But also that some people v. much do understand these impacts and are just antisemites trying to use palestine as a cover for that antisemitism.

Thusly, these attacks are also evil and unjustifiable. Especially when you consider the end result, regardless of actual intent, is that these are an attack on Jews as a whole, and WILL once again make Jewish people as a whole feel unsafe and targeted.

Hearing people justify an antisemitic attack on AMBULANCES of all things is fucking gross. Even in a world where the ambulances are owned by the state of Israel itself, the whole purpose of pointing out the Israeli state's attacks on ambulances is that the attacks are evil and unjustifiable.

I'm not here to argue over whether the initial comment crossed the line. I'm just here to point out that any person calling themselves Mueller, They Anything would be harassed for that shit because it is 2026. This pisses me off so much. Performative bullshit. It is insulting.
Mueller She Wrote account, responding to a post from "jasper pilled" that reads "INSPIRING! The Mueller She Wrote lady has agreed to accompany Bob into the afterlife!"

Her response (MSW): "Please report this account for wishing for my death. Women shouldn't have to put up with this kind of harassment."

the dumbest form of politics is yelling at voters after you lose. if you lose it is *always* your fault. every confounding factor in the universe is your job to overcome. if you take a position that is unpopular and don't adjust to learning that, you are bad at running for office.

Torturing trans women prisoners by executive fiat, and doubling down on said torture as soon as they attempt to fight back. This is what trans genocide in the USA right now looks like.

There is absolutely no reason for Sam Altman to say anything but he is currently digging the biggest hole possible, responding to all and sundry on Twitter. This is the worst possible statement he could have given!
I know what it's like to feel backed into a corner, and I think it's worth some empathy to the DoW.
They are on the a very dedicated group of people with, as I mentioned, an extremely important mission. I cannot imagine doing their work.
Our industry tells them "The technology we are building is going to be the high order bit in geopolitical conflict. China is rushing ahead. You are very behind."
And then we say
"But we won't help you, and we think you are kind of evil."
I don't think I'd react great in that situation.
I do not believe unelected leaders of private companies should have as much power as our democratically elected government. But I do think we need to help them.

I gotta say, being like "I support trans rights, BUT" while the government is making it impossible for trans people to *survive* is actively helping the government get what they want. And I don't think I've ever seen a legitimate critique follow, it's just repeating more anti-trans propaganda

it took an expensive, coordinated effort & a lot of people saying “this doesn’t matter” to get from a bathroom ban costing one state $400 million & a gubernatorial race to “trans people must turn in their documents which become invalid in a few hours or face fines & potential jail time” in 10 years.
was met with widespread protests: state, county and city governments across the United States forbade their employees from non-essential travel to North Carolina; numerous corporations and firms curbed plans to hold events and create jobs in the state, and many
performers canceled performances in North Carolina to boycott the state; North Carolina's economy lost over $400 million in investments and jobs. The bill was also criticized by several religious organizations, and President Barack Obama denounced it and called for its repeal. McCrory ultimately lost his bid for re-election in 2016 to Democratic Attorney General Roy Cooper, a vocal critic of the law.

It feels like Newsom is trying to position himself as "outside of the democratic core" or whatever when he is very much within that system, and has the more power out of anyone to change the course of the discourse amongst his supporters and nationally, if he just would.. use his platform to do that

Ash @wilburn.lol · 24/02/2026
This has been said before by many people but one of the things that pisses me off about Newsom types is like, ok fine, let's say you're "right" about idpol/trans issues (you're not but) - be the change you wish to see. You have a platform. Stfu about how bad this is and talk about "tabletop issues".

I feel like it's a good time to restate that my rapist was never prosecuted by the Republican DA at the time for Tarrant County in Texas, who served for 3 decades. In fact he had some of the lowest prosecution rates for SA and rape cases. Republicans have always defended rapists and predators.

The ideal solution will always be governments doing drug R&D through the path to market, but right now I don't see many doing that, and one of the biggest nations for drug research is currently isolationist and killing off funding.

I hate to defend Moderna or any other pharma co., but Moderna is not in a profitable state as-is. They need the drug candidates that wind up working out to be highly profitable to make up for the losses they are currently experiencing on R&D right now.
