Myths spread by contrarian doctors to minimize COVID are now being recycled to minimize measles.

The anti-vaccine circle is complete.

My latest for SBM.

More true every day
Passage from Carl Sagan’s 1995 book, the demon haunted world. The passage states “ not explaining science seems to me perverse. When you’re in love, you want to tell the world. This book is a personal statement, reflecting, my lifelong love affair with science. but there’s another reason: Science is more than a body of knowledge; it is a way of thinking. I have a four boating of an America in my children’s or grandchildren’s time - when the United States is a service or information economy; when nearly all the key manufacturing industries have slipped away to other countries; when awesome technological powers are in the hands of a very few, and no one representing the public interest can even grasp the issues; when the people have lost the ability to set their own agendas or knowledgeably question those and authority; when, clutching our crystals and nervously consulting our horoscopes, our critical faculties decline, unable to distinguish between what feels good, and what’s true, we slide, almost without noticing, back into superstition and darkness. The dumbing down of America is most evident in the slow decay of substantive content in the enormously influential media. The 30 second sound bites (now down to 10 seconds or less), lowest common denominator programming, credulous presentations on pseudoscience and superstition, but especially, a kind of celebration of ignorance.

Concerned orange. 🍊 Photo from my collection, 1967.
Faded, warm toned color photo of a shorthaired orange tuxedo tabby sitting on a speckled linoleum floor next to a wooden table and chairs. It’s very pretty and looks off to the right with a slightly worried expression but relaxed body language.

Having the fellas over for a kitty appreciation party. Photo from my collection, 1953.
Black and white photo of two white men on a couch, one in naval uniform, but both of their head are out of frame. The navy man is petting a shorthaired tabby cat on the coffee table in front of him.

Valentine’s Day date idea: take turns admiring your cat. From my collection, no documented date/info.
Black and white photo of a smiling white woman in Edwardian clothing, kneeling on a grass lawn to admire a white and tabby shorthaired cat. A man approaches from the background on the right. Photo of a man in a suit (possibly the same man from the previous photo) kneeling on grass to admire a shorthaired tabby and white cat.

Playing with mud and rust today. Just another day helping preserve railroad history.
