Fed is best.

Breastfed, pumped, formula, what have you.

BREAKING: Advice for new moms from old white men. 🤰

Look, we are all about breastfeeding. We think it’s the right choice for women who can, especially in the first 6m. But if you cannot breastfeed your baby, using formula is FINE.

Using formula doesn’t make you a bad mom. Listening to 🧠🪱 may.
RFK Jr: "All of the ingenuity of corporate America has not produced an infant formula that is superior in nutrition and all the qualities that we want to the infant formula that God made, which is the infant formula in a mother's breast."

Isn’t this the same guy they said we had to dress better in planes? Now he wants us to work out before getting on?

Dude- give me some space to actually put my legs, more than one cracker, and have them run on time and not ruin my luggage

My colleague, the brilliant @colincarlson.bsky.social posted this on LinkedIn. This is devastating for Colin and his group, but also for science, for the future of the human race. #NSF is starving scientists of resources. This will not get better until we all rise up.

A reminder - the Hep B (and HPV) vax is a vax *against* cancer and *significantly* reduce risk.

Don’t ask/rail for cures for cancer if you aren’t willing to utilize the ones we have

I doubt those making less than 40K got a 3% raise, and for those over 40K that $1200 wage growth is less than inflation
FOX: The numbers that we looked at show that inflation is still higher than wage growth

HASSETT: No. Wage growth is higher than inflation now. I'll send you an email

FOX: Inflation is at 2.9%

HASSETT: Real wage growth is $1,200 over the year. I'll show it to you

When folks gripe about DEI, remind them who benefited from shutting out dancers like Copeland. That pattern runs through our whole history.

CIDRAP’s Vaccine Integrity Project has released a major evidence review: 400+ studies/reports, 40 years of data—and the conclusion is unmistakable.

There is no evidence supporting a delay in the hepatitis B birth dose.

Whole thread but THIS
Bottom line

-VAERS is an early-warning system, not evidence of risk.
-It contains unverified, unfiltered, and often irrelevant reports.
-It cannot establish causation, calculate risk, or reflect real frequencies of vaccine injuries.

Not savory - but can pumpkin, box spice cake mix. Combine and mix until cake mix is incorporated. Spoon onto cookie sheet. Bake 10 min. Moist, cake like cookies. Can add chocolate chips. Would make excellent whoopie pies
(Note: they do NOT get much bigger as they bake)

The FDA memo claiming the COVID vaccine killed at least 10 children relies on unverified VAERS reports and ignores real pediatric COVID data. If the agency wants credibility and truly believes in “radical transparency” it must release the full evidence for independent review.

Unvaccinated infants are the second most likely group to get hospitalized for Covid after older adults. Any effort to minimize the effectiveness for kids is evil.
