The future is here, it's just not evenly distributed.

I know this is just a demo, but it's a pretty good one. I also get a kick out of watching the humans perform. Someone coached them a lot.

Anyone who downplayed the threat of the anti-vaccine movement was either not paying attention or had been bamboozled.

Sadly, many of us warned about its pseudoscientific assault on public health for years.

And now it’s mainstream.

And children are dying.

Can confirm.
This is the best, most comprehensive documentary on Apollo 13 I've seen. This is an insane amount of work and deserves a wide viewing. The Apollo 13 movie is good--I own it on Blu Ray and have seen it several times. But Amy shows what really happened and how.

Honestly, this really is fantastic.
Full Apollo 13 documentary... it's a big one!

Daughter and I were cracking up at the music in a restaurant in Portland. It took some detective work to identify and purchase the CD.

This is some of the funniest stuff ever. I'm loving it.

Oh look it's Cassidy whining again about the consequences of his own actions in confirming RFK Jr. and convincing others to do so.

Sir, you are a United States Senator. The fact that you continue say much yet do nothing in the wake of RFK Jr.'s destruction of public tells us all we need to know.

Bill Cassidy MD owns the child sickness, suffering & deaths that will result from RFK Jr’s anti-vaccine policies

Dr Cassidy cast the deciding vote in the Senate Finance Committee to confirm RFK Jr as HHS Sec—yet he knew full well that RFK Jr is the world’s most extreme, dangerous anti-vaxx activist
Bill Cassidy — who voted to confirm RFK Jr — says his move to roll back vaccine recommendations “will make America sicker.”

It is the work that is NOT happening or happening in silence that we need to pay more attention to in 2026!

Let's amplify these messages and findings.
Let's do it!
The FDA has played an active role in US Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s agenda to scrutinize vaccines, even if the moves haven’t been as deeply examined as those at agencies like the CDC, immunization experts say.

If you are a foreign president who commits crimes overseas, America will come get you, arrest you, and lock you up.

But if you are a US president who commits crimes here in the United States, America will give you immunity from prosecution, reelect you, and bribe you with billions of dollars.

With friends like Schumer who needs enemies? Part of why the GOP is now running rough-shod over America is because the Democrats have been in feckless disarray for a long time.

Melt their phone lines.
Asked about the possibility of impeachment, Schumer says "we hope that we can have support from our Republican colleagues to put a brake on this long before it gets that far"

These online right wing freaks don't just hate their own country in the abstract. If you are reading this here, they hate *you* specifically. I don't know what our future holds for living with these people, but people should remember that toleration in Europe started behind a sword and a shield.
Insane how much these people hate their own country
