RFK Jr wants to stop all scientific publishing -- and will.

The junkie, who has never taken a science course in his life, thinks scientific journals are corrupt.

Some important words from the pioneering Dr. Terry Simpson, who also has a fantastic substack to follow.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but It's ok to ask for help even if you only need it intermittently or a little.

Don't let misplaced shame keep you from living your best life.

America: Why aren't people having more kids!?

Also America: Let's tie healthcare to employment, offer no paid time off for parents, no paid sick leave and no assistance to parents who have children with disabilities.
Also, let's limit access to lifesaving healthcare for pregnant people.

The most important thing to remember, for the next 4 years and always.
I refuse to let the next 4 years ruin the time I have here.
I will have joy.
I will laugh.
I will rest.
I will dance.
I will sing.
I will spend time with folks I love.
I will find ways I can help my community.
I will find the beauty.
I will hold on to peace.
I will live.
I will have joy.

Comparing antidepressant use to Heroin use is absolutely insane.

When will the US require qualified individuals in these roles essential to healthcare for millions of Americans!?

There are still people justifying why they didn't vote because they're unhappy with the way things are.

Oh yeah? & when did giving up ever get you change either?

If 1 vote every 2 years gets you a single piece of legislative progress, that's a pretty solid return relative to your commitment.
