Promoting health and science and resistance against pseudoscience, disinformation, and fascism.

"A social media post from 'The White House' features a quote from President Donald J. Trump about sending a hospital boat to Greenland. Below the text is a painting of a large hospital ship, flying an American flag and marked with a red cross, sailing on a choppy sea towards a bright sunrise or sunset over distant mountains."
Media Bias/Fact Check Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. openly acknowledged that he personally ordered the CDC to rewrite its vaccine-autism webpage, boasting in a New York Times interview that he directed the agency to contradict decades of scientific research showing no link between vaccines and autism.

Bill Hartman, MD, PhD @hartman_bill Public Health is not his priority. The HHS secretary has always wanted to make sure that vaccines are less available, less affordable and more misunderstood and feared. Mission accomplished. ACIP was a group of brilliant volunteer physicians and scientists, are we now going to see a bunch of ivermectin and methylene blue pushers? Health policy by TikTok influencers is not ok.
The image is a scene from the 1999 film Office Space, a satirical comedy about workplace frustrations. The characters in the image are: DOGE: What would you say you do here? Federal Pharmacists: A job you're unqualified for and wouldn't understand if I tried to explain.
The image is a portrait of André Gide, a French author and critic. Born in 1869 and died in 1951 Won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1947 Known for works exploring human problems and conditions with psychological insight Translated works by Walt Whitman, William Shakespeare, and Rainer Maria Rilke The quote in the image reads: "Everything that needs to be said has already been said. But, since no one was listening, everything must be said again."
This is a meme using the "Drakeposting" format, where the subject expresses disapproval in the top panel and approval in the bottom panel. In this case, the meme replaces Drake’s face with that of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. The top panel, showing disapproval, is labeled "Injecting vaccines." The bottom panel, showing approval, is labeled "Injecting heroin" with a laughing emoji. The meme appears to criticize Kennedy’s well-known opposition to vaccines while implying inconsistency or hypocrisy.

The image is a political cartoon depicting RFK Jr with a bird pulling at a worm emerging from his brain. The bird is labeled “incoming bird flu” and the worm is labeled “anti-vaxx.” RFK Jr is sitting behind a microphone, clutching papers which are labeled “make America healthy again.” A nod to his recent confirmation hearings. The cartoonist, Adam Zyglis, uses humor to comment on the dangers of vaccine hesitancy and the potential consequences of not taking action against the spread of diseases.
The image is an urgent message from the National Treasury Employees Union (NTEU) regarding an offer from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) for federal employees to resign. Key points: OPM Offer: The OPM is enticing federal workers to resign with vague promises, aiming to reduce the federal workforce by 10% or more. NTEU Warning: The NTEU advises employees not to be fooled by the OPM's offer, as it lacks guarantees and insults the workforce. Telework Attacks: The message criticizes the OPM for attacking teleworking employees and questioning their productivity. Guidance Concerns: The NTEU expresses concerns that the OPM's guidance may violate conduct rules for federal employees. Call to Action: The message urges employees to stand strong together and not resign.
have known Bobby my whole life; We grew up together. It's no surprise that he keeps birds of prey as pets because he himself is a predator. He has always been charismatic - able to attract others through the strength of his personality, willingness to take risks and break the rules. I watched his younger brothers and cousins follow him down the path of drug addiction. His basement, his garage, and his dorm room were the centers of the action where drugs were available and he enjoyed showing off how he put baby chickens and mice in the blender to feed his hawks. It was often a perverse scene of despair and violence
