Taking an anti-vaccination stances against a treatment that saves the life of ONE IN FIVE HUNDRED KIDS and has no verified deaths involving healthy recipients is not just anti-science and anti-logic, it's evil. I have studied this disease too extensively to soften that word.

It's just evil.

It's easy to be concerned about vaccines when you stop being concerned about viruses. You can only stop being concerned about viruses in a world with vaccines.

One. In. Five. Hundred. Kids.

Those seem like good odds, but are they really? Especially when you add in making the surviving kids suddenly vulnerable to every other opportunistic germ coming down the road?

In real life, one in 500 kids who catches measles will die. And because measles is an asshole, some of them will die six to eight years later, of untreatable, incurable neurological conditions left as a parting gift by the virus.

Members of my generation will probably remember a BRADY BUNCH episode, originally from 1969 but on in constant reruns all through the 80s, where all the kids get measles. And because it's a sitcom, the disease is funny and harmless and recovery is quick and smooth. None of the Brady kids die.

But where measles has really excelled is in the PR department. See, it was a priority for vaccine development because it killed a lot of kids. So measles vaccines rolled out pretty early, and pretty universally as such things go.

Most viruses, you catch them, your immune system learns them, locks their details in the control room, and then you can fight them in the future. Measles not only doesn't leave you that data, it blows up the control room. No immune memory for YOU good DAY.

Many diseases, even airborne ones, will fall out of the air in a relatively short period of time. Measles goes for the gold standard, and can remain infectious in the air for HOURS. When there was a case at Disneyland several years ago, Mr. Toad's Wild Ride became a virus hotbox.

Measles is one of those nightmare diseases that, if it hadn't been killing people for hundreds of years, people would ABSOLUTELY be pushing conspiracy theories about right now. It's too nasty in too many different directions to seem natural. But oh, boy, it sure is.

I think if he did this it might have a negative effect on his own rural voters. And serve to increase Dem turnout among educated voters even more than he already has.

Eliminating those 37 stop lights would reduce the commute to Toledo/Detroit by 30 minutes each way. And reduce congestion and accidents. Time for a bypass.

How many adjacent states don’t have a direct limited access highway connecting their two largest cities? Toledo is on the way, but it is absurd not to have a direct limited access highway between Columbus and Detroit. Detroit is the 14th largest metro area, Columbus 32nd

Crockett isn’t going to even win her Senate primary

Or he could pardon them?

On Nov. 16, a mental health counselor recorded in Kamilla’s medical records that her mother reported the girl had lost her appetite after being “served food that contained worms.” A week later, the couple said, children were told to gather in the gym for what they believed would be a Thanksgiving celebration. Excitement spread as families saw tables set with turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, they said. The children waited expectantly. But when a parent asked when the celebration would begin, Oksana said, staff told them the holiday meal was for employees, not detainees. The children, she said, watched despondently as the feast was packed away.

On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast.

The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me.

But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

My thoughts are with our Canadian neighbors. School shootings are some of the worst moments in human history.

To drive through 37 stop lights on the way to Toledo and Detroit from Columbus is preposterous. Toledo is the 4th largest city in Ohio and Detroit is one of the biggest metro areas in the Midwest. This should have been done when they wanted to do this 30 years ago, now it’s going to be even harder.

US Olympic Curling Team member speaks out against ICE:

"I'm proud to represent Team USA. But we'd be remiss if we didn't mention what's going on in Minnesota and what a tough time it's been. What's happening is wrong. There's no shades of gray."

Bad Bunny’s closing messages during his Super Bowl performance:

“The only thing more powerful than hate is love”
“Together, we are America”

Lotta fat old guys telling Olympic athletes that they should be sent home. No one is stopping you from getting off your couches and training to take their spots. Until then, enjoy watching them exercise their free speech rights. Go team USA.

Psychiatrist Says Kennedy Was ‘Not Accurate’ in Discussing His Keto Studies

I find it hard to believe RFK misspoke when he suggested going keto could cure schizophrenia

Opinion | Peter Attia, the Epstein Files and the Lie Propping Up Big Wellness

The story of Peter Attia — a longevity doctor who graduated from medical school but never completed residency — is a good illustration of the flimsiness of what these alternative health influencers are selling. His name appears in more than 1,700 documents in the most recent … Epstein files.

I’m so proud of all the Olympic athletes speaking out about the bullshit that is happening here. That’s what patriotism looks like.

Photo shows a young girl with her cat

This is Maria, a 6-year-old detained by ICE last year.

She began to unravel soon after arriving at a detention center in Texas, wetting the bed after years without accidents, crying through the night and begging to breastfeed again.

Most of all, she wanted to be reunited with her cat, Milo. 1/

Measles Is Causing Brain Swelling in Children in South Carolina In the ongoing measles outbreak in South Carolina that has infected more than 800 people, some children have developed a rare but serious complication called encephalitis.

NEW: Children are developing encephalitis as the South Carolina measles outbreak continues. @emilymullin.bsky.social has more:

Seems pretty clear that the strategy going forward should be “lawsuit machine go brrrr.” Flood them with lawsuits and court cases so that they don’t have enough staff to cover all of them. Bog down everything down they do. Fight everything.

BERNIE SANDERS: Do vaccines cause autism?

BHATTACHARYA: I do not believe that the measles vaccine causes autism

SANDERS: Nah. Uh uh. I didn't ask measles. Do vaccines cause autism?

BHATTACHARYA: I have not seen a study that suggests any single vaccine causes autism
