the nuzzi story is fun and all but at the center of it is the elevation of a man who has dedicated his life to making children catch preventable diseases to a position where he can enact harm at enormous scale
CDC has overhauled its website to assert that “the claim ‘vaccines do not cause autism’ is not an evidence-based claim”

Amazing. Dude is just winking at Cassidy and telling him what a schmuck he is while he kills children.
Apparently RFK Jr. promised Senator Bill Cassidy that he wouldn’t remove the statement

“Vaccines do not cause autism” from the CDC website.

So what RFK Jr. did instead is spit in his face by leaving the statement there and adding this:

Idiots lament their idiot king
Joe Rogan and Theo Von slam DHS for using Von's image in a video promoting deportation:

"I was like, oh my God, what the fuck are they doing? That's not how you envision the government."

"They were making, like, deportation hype videos with trap beats and shit. What are we doing? It's idiocracy."

Telling normies about furry lore is a bit strange but kind of fun.

I just explained to a bunch of non furries what Burned Furs were and the ridiculousness of trying to "clean up the community's image".

Funnily enough. Normies IMMEDIATELY UNDERSTAND how being a Burned Fur is very dumb.

In 2024, Tierra Walker was sick and getting sicker. She was also pregnant.

She knew abortion was illegal in Texas, but thought there was an exception for women like her, whose health was at risk. Doctors told her there was no emergency.

Then she died.

I cannot overemphasize that Marjorie Taylor Greene, Carlson, and Fuentes see a 2028 path to victory that involves building an isolationist populist coalition that traffics heavily in antisemitism and exploits existing negative sentiment against Israel.

We have to be SHARP on the left right now.

We lost a legend.

But for her family, the gofundme is still up.
Burger Becky’s gofundme for cancer treatment is now for a funeral service.

To my knowledge we’ve not yet lost her, but she has announced that her doctors have informed her there is nothing more that can be done

in the early 2000s Rebecca took the time to chat over IRC with a teenaged and gender-confused Me on the practicalities of transition - in a time where being out as trans online was something that could get you socially ostracized. I owe her a lot for that and only hope I can pay it forward.

Reupping.

Lots of people laughing that Trump has confessed his tariffs drove up prices.

Too many aren't mentioning that he'll have to pay the tariffs back, meaning there'll be no $$ for rebates.

Trump has only bankrupted consumers and created a big hole in his budget.

Ubisoft and Treyarch resorting to regurgitative AI in their big $70 “AAA” games is simply pathetic.

The lack of integrity, the lack of dignity, the lack of pride. Sure, it’s all expected, but nonetheless miserably *pathetic* to witness.

Have some fucking self respect for once.
