Finally got my review up for the premiere of season 3 of #StrangeNewWorlds. I liked this episode more than I thought I would, it was really tense and exciting and the additions to the lore of the Gorn were really interesting

Any time I talk about a wealthy person's outfit, someone in the comments is quick to reply: "They're rich, you think they care?" No one has to care about my opinions or clothes, regardless of net worth.
But let's talk about the connection between wealth and aesthetics 🧵

They blame pollution but cut the EPA and clean air and water regulations. They blame poor nutrition but cut SNAP and programs to bring local produce to schools. They blame increased screen time while destroying public infrastructure that connects people. All while they take millions off healthcare.
The White House blamed exposure to environmental toxins, poor nutrition and increased screen time for a decline in Americans’ life expectancy Thursday.

The cuts to Medicaid and Medicare will cut hospital revenue dramatically and likely cause facility closures, thereby affecting the availability of healthcare for everyone.

It's interesting to think of how adults with type 1 diabetes is a recent thing, up til very recently you simply died as a child.
Access to an exogenous hormone allowed humans to become T1D adults. To actually grow up.
Better access, allowed them to have lives virtually identical to insulin-havers

It’s important to pay attention to the fact that there are simultaneous efforts to criminalize mask-wearing by citizens and to standardize the wearing of face-obscuring gaiters by people purporting to be law enforcement.

It is deeply weird that only after a sustained years-long campaign to deprive trans people of every right enjoyed by cis people did the Guardian ask someone from a womens' refuge if they had ever had problems resulting from trans women using their services & got the reply 'Never, in fifteen years"
