So the anti-vax organization founded by the current HHS secretary is hosting a dark mirror bullshit clone of the CDC’s website.
No wonder they were in such a hurry to delete the CDC’s data.

🧵NEW: A CDC clone website is filled with false and misleading vaccine claims against a backdrop of false balance. The NGO (Children's Health Defense) led by the current HHS Secretary until December 2024 is hosting content for the CDC clone.

People with glasses and contacts have to realize that we have a disability that just happens to be highly accommodated for in modern society and that accommodation is the only reason why poor eyesight is not considered a disability.

I show how Trump's attacks on science and universities are neither random nor new - they fit very precisely into the authoritarian playbook.
This means we can guess what might come next and prepare - and we must!

THIS IS HUGE! Researchers at Stanford University have developed a dual-antibody treatment that remains effective against ALL SARS-CoV-2 variants by targeting a less-mutable part of the virus. This breakthrough could lead to longer-lasting therapies that OUTPACE viral evolution. 🧪🧵⬇️

World Book Day check in… actively reading Dragonfly in Amber (Outlander series 2nd book) on audiobook, occasionally dipping into The Hidden Life of Trees book, and on pause with Contented Dementia as I’ve not yet achieved the rapport they say you should develop before continuing in the book.

Trump has been invited to a state visit to the UK. We should not be rolling out the red carpet to celebrate this man. Agree? Add your name to the petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/no...
No second state visit for Trump
Unbelievable. Keir Starmer has handed Donald Trump a letter from King Charles, inviting him for a second state visit to the UK. It’s totally unprecedented, and should not go ahead.

The GOP majority in the house is 3 seats. There are two special elections in Florida coming up and one in NY. With a few bucks to donate to those efforts, we can shave or even erase that majority. We don't have to wait two years.
THIS IS IT. The special general elections for Florida’s 1st & 6th Congressional Districts are on APRIL 1, 2025. If we flip these seats, we can STOP Project 2025. No excuses! Mark your calendars! Show up!

With apologies to anyone who’s already seen me get excited about this on FB & Insta… today I learned about reflected rainbows and discovered I’d taken a photo of one on Sunday! Had to add filters but the fainter one is definitely in reverse colour order!

Has just been like a normal January day here, but we don’t have much in the way of things that can blow down/away. Most people are sensible and secure things. Literally all I’ve seen today is a small plastic bag against a fence. Plenty travel disruption though.

And unfortunate that the two most trusted people are the seer & the last traitor. So intrigued to see how it all pans out. Hopefully they will think that if Frankie is the traitor that she would have chosen someone more contentious to say was a traitor, if she was going to lie…

Freddie is going to be maaaad at Charlotte but he won’t be able to show it because they’ll all wonder what had changed (will they remember that the remaining traitor/s can recruit). But can he control his emotions? Will Charlotte get banished tomorrow?
