  1. Well, I just watched my first podcast, and I learned nothing I didn’t already know. To be fair, I hadn’t seen the Rogan footage, but I know about the threat to Social Security.
  2. I will believe the election was fair and square when I see the percentage of bullet votes for each state.
  3. I think this issue dates to 2017.
  4. Today we received in the mail an invitation to carpetbagger Chip Roy’s town hall, which was held yesterday.
  5. TIL that NOAA is instrumental to oyster and blue crab fisheries. https://www.fisheries.noaa.gov/national/habitat-conservation/oyster-reef-habitat https://www.fisheries.noaa.gov/species/blue-crab
  6. Gifted David Frum Atlantic article which describes what yesterday’s events portend, titled “At Least Now We Know the Truth.” https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2025/02/least-now-we-know-truth-about-trump-and-vance/681872/?gift=hVZeG3M9DnxL4CekrWGK322xBEKOAOqJ6N2BuUzPwvw&utm_source=copy-link&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=share
  7. Reminds me of what my aunt used to say: “Isn’t that just like a teenager, tell you the truth to your face, and expect you not to believe it.”
  8. Worth noting this cartoon came out in a Kiev newspaper and the Economist.
  9. This is not good.
  10. JD’s investment in AcreTrader looks to pay off pretty well. AcreTrader buys farmland. https://www.snopes.com/news/2024/10/08/jd-vance-acretrader/
  11. The NIH funding freeze is a function of DOGE, so this goes here. Senior scientists are being kicked to the curb. Research projects are losing their leaders. The only way this makes sense to me is that these fucks are doing all they can to ruin the United States of America. Again, every dollar the federal government invests in research yields $2.60 in economic activity. https://www.science.org/content/article/nih-ban-renewing-senior-scientists-adds-assaults-its-house-research
  12. I saw one termination letter posted by meteorologist. They were recently hired and still considered probationary.
  13. It makes sense if you believe he is trying to run this country into the ground.
  14. Can’t find anything about this on the wires, but John Green’s CV has some heft, and his latest book, due to come out in a couple of weeks, is titled “Everything is Tuberculosis.”
  15. Might as well post some hopeful news in the deadly disease thread. Yale reports positive results from a cancer vaccine. Nature magazine reporting: “A neoantigen vaccine generates antitumour immunity in renal cell carcinoma” https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-024-08507-5
  16. So, the six month ramp up to production interferes with a better flu vaccine. Who could have known? Oh yeah, actual doctors.
  17. Flu shots in the 2023-2024 flu season were within the expected range of effectiveness. https://www.flu.com/Articles/2024/2024-2025-Flu-Vaccine-Effectiveness
  18. Republicans are feeding their Nazi souls. https://www.advocate.com/politics/dhs-allows-surveillance-sexual-orientation
  19. The politicization of medicine picks up steam. The meeting to discuss which flu strains to include in the next flu shot has been canceled. Morons. All the way down. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/02/26/us/politics/fda-flu-vaccine.html?unlocked_article_code=1.0E4.BCg6.NQ9_8QTh2mFd&smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare
