Since natural grocery stores seem to be popping up in the MAHA discourse I do want to touch on the difference between the MAHA shoppers versus everyone else who shops at those places. Having worked at one for a number of years I know the customer bases pretty well.
All I will add to the MAHA discourse is as someone who is on the autism spectrum from my point of view many of these MAHA folks view autism as a fate worse than diseases preventable by vaccines and I think thats something that really needs to be stopped.
I’m with Bree here. Who is thee we “we?” Disabled folks? Black folks? Women? Queer folks? Trans folks? All of us exist in a history and a present that has weaponized medicine against us.
Getting a little nervous watching the AOC/MAHA backlash swing into "we must always trust the medical system" territory. Especially coming from folks who have never had to ask the medical system to give a shit about their ovaries being covered in cysts or endo scarring eating their intestines.

I could get used to this, which is good, because I have no other choice.

Things are terrible but the local Coop brought the pumpkin cookies back.
Welp, guess it's back to everyone learning to code.

So spouse got a new indie game, The Immortal John Triptyche and I have to say this is a lot of fun.
Every person who has ever given birth: Ohhh did you get a root canal without novocaine? Should we tell everyone? Should we throw a party? Should we invite Bella hadid?
Why not just leave the diseased tooth untreated indefinitely? Now that’s how you 10x the badassery. First Principles.
I’m sure most of you aren’t watching the US Open right now which means you missed this instantly iconic moment, now available in gif form
Maybe it's just me but I don't think any bluesky account large or small cost the dems the 2024 election....
El-Sayed: Why would you invite JD Vance? We don’t have more couches here than they do in Ohio.
And you may ask yourself, "Are they sweet, are they cold?" And you may say to yourself, "My God, where are my plums?"
This is why I minimize my time online when I'm sick because sometimes I log on see things like this and ask myself "is this a fever, do I have a fever?"
