There's a simple test. Put RFKJr in a room with 100 unlabeled kids. Have him sort the vaccinated from the unvaccinated based on vibes or whatever he's claiming, and see how he does. He should welcome this chance to prove he's right in a scientific way.

Let’s say this again. Read this carefully, line-by-line, so you don’t forget. Gender affirming care is not harmful to patients. In fact, it’s actually shown to REDUCE rates of suicide in transgender people by up to 70%.

I've been saying this for a while, except having to report to a panel of young people who have read the book. "Yes, Mrs. Karen, we know what date rape is because it's happening to our friends. Why don't you want us to read about it and learn to deal with it?"

Not transness, not lack of security, not a need for bulletproof windows. It's the rapid and unbalanced spreading of hate and a false sense of entitlement. Let's figure out why some people are choosing parasocial connections instead of real community.

We don't take domestic violence and child abuse as seriously as we should, especially considering that it's one thing a majority of school shooters, family annihilators, and mass murderers have in common.

Scott Ritter (convicted pedophile) claims that the children kidnapped from Ukraine by Russia and forced into Russian homes were actually rescued from Ukrainian shelling and that Ukraine didn't want them. Everything involving Scott Ritter and children is reprehensible.

Ken Paxton "will not back down from the virtues that built this country" and demands all Texas schools post "THOU SHALT NOT COMMIT ADULTERY". Paxton's wife is divorcing him because he committed adultery. Ken doesn't obey the Bible commandments any better than the Constitutional ones.

Plea for fellow reporters: can we stop reflexively referring to everyone the feds randomly arrest as “undocumented” or “in the country illegally?” We frankly have no idea who they’re detaining or what their status is most of the time, and there are *many* reports of people with status being detained

Why don’t we just hand Texas, Florida, or Oklahoma to Russia? We can call it a “territory swap” for goodwill. Americans can just leave and go somewhere else or live under Russian rule. Absurd, right? Stop suggesting people should just give up their home to an invader.

Colbert seems to use religion as it is meant to be: a tool for self-improvement, a personal moral guide, and a way to connect with ancestors and descendants in a common belief system. I've never seen him use it as a cudgel. That's the kind of Christian I hope I am, too. @stephencolbert.bsky.social

I’m well and truly tired of Jay Bhattacharya talking about the lack of trust in public health. He and his cronies seeded, watered, and fertilized distrust during the pandemic, so they shouldn’t be surprised that it flowered. The man has no training, education, or experience in public health.

People living under fascism didn’t survive by giving up joy—they protected it. They held onto the things fascism tried to erase: art, friendship, jokes, rituals, language, memory. Not as escapism but as resistance. As proof they were still human. Joy isn’t frivolous under fascism. It’s strategic.
