I get that this CDC page is directed at “everyone” and not medical professionals, but measles doesn’t just cause an “uncomfortable rash and high fever”. It can cause pneumonia, encephalitis, and even death. It can cause immune amnesia that raises risk from other infections. It can kill years later.

A podcast I listen to plays the same ad for Ruff Greens over and over. It’s a dog food created by a naturopathic doctor. Not a veterinarian. Not even a naturopathic veterinarian. I can’t say it has never happened, but it’s hard to imagine a medical doctor using their MD to market animal feed.

This is a silly one. You will not hurt a baby by touching their heads, even their “soft spots”. There may not be bone but there is dense fibrous tissue in those areas. Baby heads tolerate the strong pressure of a vaginal delivery just fine with rare exception. Please wash your hands though.

Spinal energetics is the stage hypnotism of chiropractic. The provided explanation practically admits that it requires a subject to play along. Also, I laughed when it says “This isn’t woo.”

I see stuff like this on FB and around the internet periodically and it isn’t very helpful. Yes, a rash sometimes seen with sepsis doesn’t blanch, but before that the child will be sick as shit. There is zero chance a parent wouldn’t already be concerned enough to seek help.

There is a lot of terrible parenting advice online. Just saw this over at FB. Both describe potentially septic infants and neither mention seeking appropriate medical care. Just dangerous stuff here.

Forget medbeds. Call me when we have Medibots.

I wouldn’t exactly say that Friendship is an easy watch. Had to get through some scenes peeking through my fingers. But it is hilarious. If you like I Think You Should Leave, you will like this movie.

This shit is everywhere. A few years ago, I found a white power hand signal on a poster at work. They were taken down immediately after I pointed it out.

Nothing quite like being greeted by a Christian nationalist slogan associated with terrorism when arriving at work in the morning. It was in permanent marker so took a few minutes to scrub off.

Breaking: President Trump calls for full FBI investigation after an elevator at the White House took several minutes to arrive despite his pushing the button repeatedly.

This chart is incomplete without a column for recognizing vaccine injuries. According to the FDA, babies who move their arms away from the body when startled should be assessed by a trained vaccine injury consultant or chiropractor.

And maybe some content on FB is designed to make mothers feel guilt, inadequacy, and frustration when their feelings don’t align with bullshit like this. It is okay to not embrace motherhood like it is a universal call to sacrifice your life and identity separate from a baby.

Teeth to toes! Not too late to sign up to learn about the entirety of human pathophysiology, except for the eyes and brain, from a dentist, a massage therapist, and a chiropractor who thinks all our problems are caused by upper cervical misalignments.
