"Are you going to wear a mask forever?"
Masks are a tool. When indoor air is clean & transmission is low, the need decreases. But right now? Many places lack good ventilation, and COVID-19 is year-round. A well-fitted mask indoors is a no-brainer.

Google is calling it the “Gulf of America”.Let’s fix it.So search for Gulf of Mexico,click the three dots to the right of “Gulf of America” select “send feedback”,click on the name of “Gulf of America”,then select “ inaccurate content” then select “incorrect” when I asked to describe the issue.
Encyclopædia Britannica will continue to use ‘Gulf of Mexico’ for a few reasons:
-We serve an international audience, a majority of which is outside the U.S.
-The Gulf of Mexico is an international body of water, and the U.S.’s authority to rename it is ambiguous.

I think it's worth repeating plainly that a federal judge halted Musk's federal funding freeze nearly two weeks ago but funds are still very much being frozen in violation of the court order.

Don’t worry - the cost of a dozen eggs is up 700% since last year.
The price of gas is going back up.
And Trump’s tariffs on steel and aluminum will drive inflation upwards while making cars and homes much more expensive.
But hey, at least the plastic straws we never lost are “back” right?!?

I am really frustrated that the press is discussing the destruction of USAID as something that has happened rather than an illegal action that will likely be undone in two weeks when courts tell the world that it was illegal.

All I can really say at this point is if everyone isn't watching how trans people have lost basic rights and protections on a scale that hasn't been seen in decades in the span of 72 hours and realizing that even if you aren't trans there's nothing stopping it from happening to you, you're a fool

A man with real knowledge and integrity would not claim he can “end the chronic disease epidemic”. If he were being honest, he would say he hopes to put policies in place to start us down a road to reduce chronic disease. But he’s arrogant and ignorant.

Let's be clear: the Medicaid portal went offline because of Donald Trump's orders.
The only reason it is back on is due to outrage from the American people.
Now, they are trying to lie about it.

Sources tell WIRED that the OPM’s top layers of management now include individuals linked to xAI, Neuralink, the Boring Company, and Palantir. One expert found the takeover reminiscent of Stalin.
