  • including an August review by researchers from Harvard University and Mount Sinai hospital – that suggested a possible link between Tylenol use early in pregnancy and an increased risk of autism in children.

    They’re citing “Evaluation of the evidence on acetaminophen use and neurodevelopmental disorders using the Navigation Guide methodology”

    It’s the only time Trump has ever listened to a climate scientist using a methodology meant to address systemic bias and the squandering of money meant for the Clean Air Act.

    At a glance, given ~10 minutes scratching at the surface, I don’t see anything awry about the citation, the primary author, or the methodology. It’s usually enough for me to go “oh, they’re being foolish.” All I could say is that I wouldn’t base policy on research that came out a month ago until the author’s peers get a chance to sink their teeth into it.







  • 35 For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, 36 I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’

    37 “Then the haters will answer him, ‘Furer, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38 When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? 39 When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’

    40 “The CEO of racism will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the most prejudiced of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’








  • I was just thinking about exactly this. I had a joke ready for any chapo besides Matt. I was going to go “good, they were kind of annoying.” Same with Hasan I would be like “understandable, he pauses a lot during videos”

    The thing is that Hasan had a rubber bullet, meant for your center of mass, get reaaaaally close to his face during the anti-ICE protests. That would have been a perfectly coherent time to go “they hate us, train like it.” 1) I do try to train hard 2) I’m a coward in that sense 3) there just wasn’t a collective sense of grief about it. I don’t think it even stopped Hasan from going back the next day. Shitting out your doodoo ass about it is to take attention away from the various concentration camps in amerikkka and isntrael

    Comrade Martyr Nick Mullen Brigades

    Reminds me of the story arc of an early character I wrote. He was supposed to be a real piece of shit (disrespectful sex pest who uses a portal to another world to vent his frustration on everyone and everything in it). I wanted a human from Earth to witness some multi-book narrative climax where they destroy an Eldritch monster after generations of struggle. But because he couldn’t care less about this other culture, his narrative recount looks away at pivotal moments, belittles the emotional reactions of others, and is otherwise an unreliable account. “Her face started glowing. She started crying talking to voices in her head about prophecy junk.” But because he was there for the legendary battle, they call him a saint of temperance or something deeply ironic. In a different book there’s a group that’s supposed to go “We’ll hear you out because we are blessed by the temperance of Saint whoever.” and only if you read this book would you know how perverted the perception of this person was by history.
