Kinda feel like this is the inevitable result of a society that thinks "defund police" goes too far Police learned that not only will they never be defunded, but they can demand every last penny tax payers have, and most likely, they'll get it

Unfortunately, we were right about him. His tenure at NIH has been the most destructive maybe ever. The U.S. has lost so much talent and been set back decades in research. He’s not there to restore trust in public health. He’s there to break public health in the service of the right-wing agenda.

Widespread dissatisfaction over the NIH’s “continuous free fall” has people speaking out.

Kansas town silences public comment on gigawatt AI data center after receiving death threats, moves to virtual meetings — shift follows physics teacher's arrest for clapping at data center hearing
Some people understand the need to go virtual for safety, but ask why public comments are affected, too.

'You'll choke too' - an aerial embroidery landscape inspired by all the wildfires happening right now... I'm upset every time I smell smoke outside and somehow we have people starting them maliciously too! But we all breathe the same air so they'll choke too (1/2 - see thread for close-ups)
I got the exact same response when trying to correct the deadly misinformation UBC was teaching med students about PPE. Dr Henry told them to, so that exempts them from having to think, or behave ethically. Banality of evil - "just following guidance" is the new "just following orders".
Mark Ungrin@mark-ungrin.bsky.social · last yr."But how *many* decades out of date is the misinformation @ubcmedicine.bsky.social has been teaching med students?" Review from 1945, citing a 1934 paper. Since UBC partially corrected their materials in response to my email in 2024, the answer is "At least 9." www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles...

Europe's wildfires are igniting forgotten WWII and Cold War bombs
Europe is full of buried explosives left over from 20th century wars, and the continent’s wildfires are now big enough, hot enough and last long enough to reach them

El-Sayed: "It means holding people like RFK Jr accountable for the DOGE-ing of our public health, for which we now need to be dodging lettuce across the state of Michigan for fear of getting explosive diarrhea, which nobody ever thought you be a consequence of electing Donald Trump, but here we are"
And just part of the cascading series of increasingly desperate double-or-nothing gambles by public health leaders trying to bury each failure under a bigger roll of the dice. That's 90% of the pandemic right there: Dunning-Kruger plus too much sociopathic self-interest to admit their mistakes.
Mark Ungrin@mark-ungrin.bsky.social · 2w ago🧵 For anyone wondering whether IPC and public health leaders are competent to manage Ebola, the answer is a categorical "no". Current WHO guidance, released May 17, 2026, is still based on the 5-micron error (p51 & 58), out of date since 1934. The quacks responsible should be in jail.
THIS is brilliant. Needs to be on news broadcasts, late night talk shows and definitely SNL.

The GOP serves a rapist-felon, a sadistic tyrant who lives only to abuse people and steal and demand praise. Mere words cannot express how VILE the people are who choose to serve, obey and empower that evil POS. They will all pay. #nurembergonthepotomac
