Sadly, Peter Gøtzsche is now clearly in the antivaccine camp.

Doug Wilson is the self-taught pastor who co-founded Pete Hegseth’s denomination, insists it was a mistake to let women vote. (He also teaches sex “cannot be made into an egalitarian pleasuring party”, because “a man penetrates, conquers, colonizes, plants. A woman receives, surrenders, accepts.”)

Bringing all the governments of the world — bar the US — to Brazil has shown that the doom and gloom over the cost of doing something to stop climate change is a peculiarly Western pathology. For many of the other nations gathered, whether they’re buying or selling, it’s the opportunity of the age.

another day another weird urbanist using the disabled as a rhetorical construct to win arguments and talk over actual people with disabilities instead of just saying: "Hey, if we build more busses and send them more places you can go drinking downtown without paying for parking."

This is the importance of buying the books we write and teach from university presses. The same administrations that don’t care about the humanities would be just as happy to have academic publishing handled by these companies. We can save our own publishing ecosystem- but we have to do it.
"academic publishing is dominated by profit-oriented, multinational companies for whom scientific knowledge is a commodity to be sold back to the academic community who created it... The dominant four collectively generated... $12 billion in profits between 2019 and 2024."

Senator Chuck Schumer of New York, the Democratic leader, emerged, late Nov 9th, from a closed-door meeting and said: “I’m voting no.”

Asked to explain his position, Schumer tersely said the American people “need health care.”

Usually when I go to unfollow someone, they've already unfollowed. Nice that's it's mutual. When I see I'm still being followed, I take pause. But it usually isn't like that.

This is coming our way courtesy of RFK Jr and his anti-vaccine movement.

Jan or Feb 2026 this will be coming to our country, too!
Canada has just lost measles elimination status. The U.S. will undoubtedly follow shortly.

Elimination means that there is no continuous spreading of measles within the country for a year or longer.

Canada and the U.S. have blown it, and it’s largely the fault of the anti-vaccination movement.
Canada loses measles elimination status after three decades, health agency says
Canada has lost its measles elimination status after nearly three decades due to its failure to curb a year-long outbreak, the country's public health agency said on Monday.
