Exactly 2 months ago, FDA “leaders” Marty Makary and Vinay Prasad claimed that 10 children had died from the COVID19 vaccine.
To this day they have provided no evidence to support this claim.
In real science, when a statement of such magnitude is made, having evidence to support it is crucial.

Tangential: one of my favorite memories of Dude the Younger is when we were singing to Big Boi’s “All Night” and his sweet little 4th grade voice peeped up from the backseat that “This is a song about consent!” 😂
bout a week ago one of my girls wanted to hear a song with “rose” in it. i the millennial dad could only think of one song with “rose” in it so i introduced them to outkast.
ive spent my week playing outkasts discography with my kids & my two year old now only refers to himself as big boy.

Obviously a lot of well-earned criticism this morning of the dog phrenology take, but
“Where I see the center of mass pointed” is ALSO NOT HOW WE DO SCIENCE, MY BRO.
You don’t just, like, average a bunch of studies together. Cochrane Reviews exist for a reason.

I think one of the most frustrating things for many neurodivergent people is that we cannot understand why people don’t give a fuck about things that could make the world a better and kinder place - that’s what happens when your emotional circuitry doesn’t work “effectively”

The director of the FBI just reiterated the Trump uber-message: We can kill you.
Alex Pretti was not attacking the agents. If he was resisting as he was being assaulted by them, under no law enforcement protocol is that alone cause for a summary execution.

ICE killing #AlexPretti should remind you of police killing #PhilandoCastille. Both men had concealed weapon permits, did not draw their guns, & were killed in Minn. These homicides are the price of unaccountable policing. These deaths are variations on the same fatal theme.

The main point is that ICE cannot be reformed. They are not violating human rights & committing crimes by mistake; they want to brutalize people.
But pay attention to the other public servants who are not under federal authority who keep telling people that protesting fascism is worse than fascism.

I wish Democrats would start just speaking the truth:
“ICE is killing American citizens in public for exercising their freedom of speech because Donald Trump wants to be a king.
This isn’t about immigration—Trump wants to make it illegal to oppose him, and to stay in power until he dies.”

As angry as I am about the Trump administration's actions, I struggle (a LOT) with the reality that he's there only because a critical mass of my fellow citizens have (enthusiastically) nominated him three times for president and then a near-majority decided in 2024 that he was an acceptable option.

On the execution in Minnesota: Obviously, the individuals involved should be held accountable. But responsibility goes to the top of ICE and CBP, and DHS. Their appropriations come up next week in the senate. Not a cent for DHS without pulling ICE and CBP off the streets, in MN and everywhere else.
