Hi, hello. In order to grasp the significance of Trump crowning himself a King, you have to understand that he is literally carrying out a plan crafted by Curtis Yarvin, a right wing extremist, to overthrow democracy and replace it with dictatorial rule by a monarch-CEO.

You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

The article states that most pediatricians have never seen chicken pox outside of a text book. As someone who had CP three times as a child, this is great news! Vaccines work.
For some pathogens to break through, the country’s immunization rates may need to slip quite a bit. But for others, the gap between no outbreak and outbreak is uncomfortably small, @katherinejwu.com reports: theatln.tc/s3GC0C9D
America Wouldn’t Know the Worst of a Vaccine Decline Until It’s Too Late
Only vaccination guards America against some of the world’s most dangerous diseases.

Found Arnold Schwarzenegger very eloquent on how his Nazi father had to deal with the aftermath of WW2 www.cbsnews.com/news/arnold-...
Arnold Schwarzenegger warns those on a "path of hate" and antisemitism, they could end up a "loser" like his Nazi father
"Hate burns fast and bright. It might make you feel empowered for a while, but it eventually consumes whatever vessel it fuels," Schwarzenegger said.

So true.
I open my Bluesky feed and it is full of really cool people saying really smart things and being really passionate about really interesting stuff.

I like this version of social media, and the world.

Thanks, folks.

WTF is going on here at Blue Sky? People are civil to each other. People having intelligent discussions. People are spelling things correctly. I haven’t seen any racism or sexism.

I’m confused.

Many commentators say that vigilante groups are never the answer. But they clearly don't know about the masked Ecuadorian trio named “Acción Ortográfica Quito,” who roam the streets at night with a singular purpose: to correct all the spelling and grammar mistakes they find in graffiti.
