Of course this won’t happen but in my opinion the perfect punishment for Trump and Musk is that they share one Magneto-type prison cell for the rest of their lives. Only each other to talk to; only each other to look at. One toilet: the one from that bar in Trainspotting.

Measles high infection rate is the reason we have not yet been able to eradicate it. That rate means you need a very high vaccination rate to prevent outbreaks. It is possible, but not with current levels of institutional distrust.
The average person with the flu gives it to around 1.4 people. The average person with measles gives it to between 12 and 18 people.

Three things. 1. Let our allies in other countries know that we support them.2. Participate in boycotts. 3. Find a place for joy and enthusiasm in your day. Those are both forms of resistance. Love your neighbors. We can do this.

I have been finding an unusually large number of interdimensional portals on my walks recently. I am calling this one ‘Mystical Bridge Of The Shy Pissing Troll’.
