- Texas House Democrats approved a Republican bill designating a fetus as a person after they asked for & received an amendment to the part that pregnant women could use HOV lanes saying that “all moms should be allowed to use the HOV lane even if their children aren’t currently in the car with them”
- A dangerous bill passed the Texas House for the first time—after Democrats played along with the idea that moms deserve to save a few minutes in traffic. www.jezebel.com/texas-democr...
- Mike Johnson, his family, and all members of Congress receive taxpayer-funded subsidies for 72% of all their healthcare costs. Why are we paying for him to have healthcare?
- Limiting fluoride access is a great way to keep certain groups of people sick and poor
- This is an unscientific decision that will cause harms. While topical fluoride is useful, when adult teeth are growing (in children) ingested fluoride makes more impact than any topical fluoride later can. Everything we ingest “changes our microbiome.” Microbiome composition is not a health outcome!
- I wish disappearing Americans to foreign gulags was a red line
- But I guess it’s not a financial conflict for these smarmy weirdos to sit on a scoop about the President until they get a lucrative book deal?
- The media & the right made SF a proving ground for harm reduction - which was never even implemented at scale - and claimed rising ODs (from the emergence of fentanyl) meant harm reduction “didn’t work.” Since cutting harm reduction, deaths are up 50%. Cause harm reduction works & policing doesn’t.
- Fentanyl deaths are up by 50 percent in San Francisco after Mayor Lurie replaced harm reduction programs with police and prisons. It's almost like you put lives in danger when you treat a public health problem like it's a crime 48hills.org/2025/05/fent...
- One logical fallacy about antivaxxers is that vaccines are always voluntary so it’s not that they want to prevent them from being “forced” on people, it’s actually just that they just want to take them away from everyone, including the people who want them. How is that “medical freedom?”
- Something wrong with a family that spends Mother’s Day doing raw sewage PR with the guy who is alleged to have driven the mother of his children to suicide, and who is confirmed to have had the body of the mother of his children dug up and removed from the family funeral plot in secret in the night…
- In addition to VitaminA (& cod liver oil), RFK has been saying budesonide (a steroid) and clarithromycin (an antibiotic) “treat” measles. Neither treats measles - although steroids & antibiotics may sometimes be used for complications - and there are significant risks (ie HARMS) associated with them
