I have to really lean into what I *am*, since what I am not is so loud & so objectionable. The affirmative can much harder to articulate. Like lots of others, I’ve leaned into social justice & found collective action I can take within my church. The traditions add meaning to my year, etc.

Guys, it's the oligarchs. If you want to blame someone for 2024, blame the oligarchs. Anyone telling you to blame someone else is part of the oligarchy. Dark money has been to blame since citizens united.

Breast cancer diagnoses rose by over 300% between 1973 and 1992.

Was there a breast cancer epidemic?!

NO.

Mammograms were implemented for screening in 1976.

PREVALENCE is a function of being able to correctly diagnose something.

This is also about autism.
