Breast cancer diagnoses rose by over 300% between 1973 and 1992.
Was there a breast cancer epidemic?!
NO.
Mammograms were implemented for screening in 1976.
PREVALENCE is a function of being able to correctly diagnose something.
This is also about autism.

Wow, 26 years ago
26 years ago today, 13 people were killed and 24 were injured in a mass shooting at Columbine High School.
This year, survivor Anne Marie Hochhalter died due to complications of her gunshot wounds at the age of 43.
Gun violence inflicts damage that lasts a lifetime. End it now.

A very fitting comment I read today:
-The uneducated prefer to view education as a scam they avoided rather than a task they failed.

I would like to know how senior administration officials even have devices that allow for non-approved apps to be installed? When you are in those roles, both government & personal devices must be checked and scrutinized for national security. This is a huge IT failure as well.

I wonder what percentage of fired workers voted for Trump. I bet it is over 50%.
As the Trump administration fires thousands of employees across the government, federal workers have another reason to be on edge: the widespread access that Elon Musk’s “government efficiency” team has gained to agency computer systems.

This has been my thought for some time as well. But it is not just the FAA. They are using the same playbook on all agencies.
They are still moving the chess pieces around to meet the goals of the extreme nationalists pulling the levers behind the scenes.

It's annoying how clearly this is going to play out.
They gut the FAA.
Therefore, the FAA can't do its job well because it was gutted.
Therefore, they say "The FAA sucks, we have to privatize it." which is what Project 2025 wants to do. They're manufacturing the crises for their end goal.

When the dust settles, we will remember which companies stood on values and which ones tucked their tails and rolled over in the face of bullies.
This is where we find out who leans into core values, and who only pretended as a marketing tool.
