She really just said why are you talking about the mass coverup of child rape when you should be talking about money

Thank you @tarikforpa.bsky.social for the inspiring visit to my Science/Anti-science in PH Policy class. MPH students heard directly from the source on informing our legislators with scientific evidence.
Our product can show you what's outside the window that's right next to you, perform a Google search slower than you can yourself, and misinform your surgeon mid-procedure, causing a catastrophic failure that will injure you for life. The entire economy is propped up on it
Every American needs to watch this:
Signs about the history of slavery in the U.S. and the 9 people George Washington enslaved are being removed right now at the President’s House Site in Philadelphia, across from Independence Hall, months after the Trump administration threatend to do so.
How far we have not come in 250 years.
So much going on right now but for those of you who care about FDA, @pzettler.bsky.social, @stevejoffe.bsky.social, @rachelsachs.bsky.social, @reshmagar.bsky.social + I have a 2 part commentary in @healthaffairs.bsky.social Forefront on the new plausible mechanism pathway. Link to Part 1 below.
Fabulous resource list to answer, 'why say no to AI in teaching and learning' from @mixedlinguist.bsky.social. I shall indeed repurpose for my own students.
Trump has been in office for one year. We at @nature.com did a deep dive looking at the administration's disruption of science in numbers.
Take a look—the numbers are staggering. By me, @dangaristo.bsky.social, Jeff Tollefson, @kimay.bsky.social, & help from @noamross.net @scott-delaney.bsky.social
Yes, immigration agents not only took Arnoldo's phone, the 10th grader had to use Find My Phone to locate it — in a vending machine for used electronics, close to an ICE detention center.

Has everyone read @karenhao.bsky.social’s seminal book on the stupidity of AI? Better to read it with the comfort of a lap dog.
I just read your tremendously important book. Thank you for all of it and especially for that last chapter of hope!
Prof. Lawrence Gostin and I wrote about the threat to states school immunization requirements from both litigation and legislation, especially worrying given federal actions undermining vaccine access

It's great that the media, Congress is going all Watergate on one of Trump's many crimes, the 'double-tap' murder of 2 Caribbean sailors
But the reality is that Trump's death cult has killed hundreds of thousands, mostly through senseless USAID cuts

Photo of a magic 8 ball with a 'goatse' version of the OpenAI logo and the words ChatGPT on it, next to a white box that says "ChatGPT offline version". Inset are photos of the 8-ball responses such as "That's a great question", "You're 1000% right" and "Too many requests try again later" and then another photo from the back of the box of a holographic authenticity sticker that says FAKE.
After much research and development I have made an offline version of ChatGPT.
Now you can save water and electricity while navel-gazing, and carry one of the world's most powerfully annoying AI chatbots in your pocket.
From the “first consolidated World Health Organization report on viral hepatitis epidemiology, service coverage and product access,” “Globally, 115 countries have introduced universal hepatitis B birth-dose vaccination, and 45% of infants received the hepatitis B birth dose within the first 24 hours of birth in 2022. Twenty-three countries have selective programmes with targeted provision of the hepatitis B birth dose (the vaccine is provided to the infants of mothers who are HBsAg positive). Infant immunization schedules in 190 countries include the hepatitis B vaccine. Of the 38 WHO focus countries for the viral hepatitis response, 25 have introduced birth-dose programmes and all provide the hepatitis B vaccine (usually as part of pentavalent vaccines) in their infant vaccination programme. In theory, if these vaccines are included in the national programme, all children should have access; however, in practice, coverage varies widely across regions and countries (Table 3.23 and Fig. 3.32). Chapter 4 presents detailed information for the 38 WHO focus countries for viral hepatitis.” https://www.who.int/publications/i/item/9789240091672
Did you know?
190 countries have infant immunization schedules that include the Hep B vaccine
115 countries recommend a universal birth-dose of the Hep B vaccine, one of the key actions WHO recommends to reduce Hep B prevalence

one of the coolest things about ChatGPT is how you can actually just never use it. you can fill your whole entire life with simply not once using it. it's incredible.
These are two grown men.
But you want us to wonder about the crisis of men and boys. What examples are you putting before them? Is this manhood?
Also true!

JAMA study: NIH grant terminations disrupted 3.5% of active clinical trials, affecting over 74,000 patients and resulting in a $1.81 billion funding loss. More than 115 active cancer trials were disrupted. www.ajmc.com/view/nih-gra...
Criminal practitioners don’t astonish easily.
This is astonishing.
🤔
my takeaway from this letter is that glenn youngkin, rector sheridan and their flunkies on the board are deeply dishonest people who are engaged, with the trump administration, in a mob-style shakedown against the university of virginia

Chuck Schumer Helps Pull Democrats Back From Brink Of Courage
I think democrats should push for a thorough review of all Elon Musk govt contracts as part of their 2026-8 portfolio. Why are taxpayers financing the work of a racist near-trillionaire? Leaving that unexamined was one of the biggest failures of the last Dem majority.
