Feeling v conflicted about this launch🧪
Inner scientist: space shouldn't be the playground of the rich & famous ☹️
Inner kid: 🥳
Inner geek: An 11min journey 100km up does not make you an astronaut 😠
Inner feminist: powerful successful women showing the bravery and riches usually associated with men 🙆‍♀️
Anyone want to watch the live-stream of the best-dressed team of "astronauts" 11min ride into "space" today?

Launching 14:30 UK (09:30 EST) from Texas, we can only hope that Katy Perry will be singing "you're going to hear me roar" as the rockets ignite 👀 🧪🛰️🔭

Protests are taking place all over the country tonight against cuts to vital federal services. Here in Washington, people are marching to SpaceX’s offices demanding Musk be ousted from the government.

WARNING This is hard to watch, 20 years of Australian #TAC anti-drink- driving advertising in one short video. I’ll never forget one of the classic, simple tag lines, “If you drink and drive you’re a bloody idiot”. #scicomm #risk #communication
youtu.be/Z2mf8DtWWd8?... Warning, if you watch this and are not from Australia, these ads may be more brutal than anything allowed in your country to be used to save lives. Get your tissues out if you dare watch. These ads gave saved lives

Australia is on track to eradicate cervical cancer by 2030, Scotland just two years behind! Amazing vaccine impact. #HPV

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too.

Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more.

Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

I probably don't even need to say this, BUT. Me not posting about every nightmarish thing is not because I am not internally (or externally!) screaming multiple times per day, i just figure you heard about it from 100 other people posting about each new nightmare. I assure you, my soul is cracking.

Two articles out same day…together they appear to provide fair warning.
(Link to second article in comments.) #H5N1
@annamerlan.bsky.social asked me to go over the science around some of the claims about raw milk that Mark McAfee, Raw Farm owner and unpasteurized milk evangelist, has made & this shit is wild.

Buckle up for H5N1 denialism, anti-vax, magical milk antivirals...

A raw milk magnate has spent years fighting public health agencies. Will RFK Jr. take his side?
Trump’s relaxed regulators could unleash an unprecedented flow of unpasteurized milk.

Championing selfishness over the common good. Ensuring you’re less connected to rest of the world, less informed about climate and health, less respected and listened to. Supporting toxic tech capitalism and supercharging inequality. Somehow that’s supposed to make everything better again? Weird.

You can say, “gravity isn’t real,” but if you step off the cliff, you’re still going down.

And if you convince other people it’s not real, you are responsible for what happens if they make decisions based on the information you withheld.

Curious timing Meta.
NEW: Meta has quietly dismantled the system that prevented misinformation from spreading in the United States. Machine-learning classifiers that once identified viral hoaxes and limited their reach have now been switched off, Platformer has learned www.platformer.news/meta-ends-mi...

I’m glad they’ve retracted & condemned it but damage has been done
