Love the idea, but it's not going to happen. That cabinet is stuffed with people who shouldn't be allowed to manage a self-serve laundromat. No way they're going to 25 the only thing keeping them there. We need solutions that don't require common sense and decency from people who have neither.

I hope you understand that if you show up at a hospital with an infection no one has ever seen before that the US had somewhere you could call. That place would answer, offer testing you can’t get anywhere else and come visit you to solve if necessary.

New Mexico has issued a public health order that removes federal restrictions to COVID-19 vaccine access so that pharmacies in New Mexico can vaccinate people of all ages and risk profiles. Every state need to do this!

I had to quit next door. During the pandemic some local lunatic was spreading dangerous misinformation and we corrected her. No fighting, no name calling, nothing out of line. That night, a mod posted her lies plus some even crazier stuff, then locked the topic so no one could respond. I left.

"The agency is in trouble" said the man who brought the trouble. It's time to start identifying those resources that *haven't* been corrupted by TrumpCo, those whose information can still be trusted to be science based. We may be largely on our own for a few years.

The fascists say Wikipedia is biased. I disagree, and in any case it's constantly self-correcting. Even if it was biased, that wouldn't be a problem. The 1st Amendment hasn't been canceled yet, so Wiki has a right to bias. If you don't like it, don't use it. This is really about thought control. /2

Agreed. More, at the very least, they need to talk about the changes as they happen, explain what they mean, and give people ways to get good information. If regaining power means leading from exile until 2027, that's what they have to do. Kill the endless campaign in favor of reliable leadership
