Be on the lookout for people who operate under the guise of religion - or any political movement - and use it as an echo chamber to reinforce their world view, instead of actually being of service.

Look at history. That's where civilizations go to die.

He was hunting it. That was the provocation. Humans are itโ€™s only predators and he was predating it.

Ivermectin Actually IS a Miracle Drug
YouTube video by SciShow Ivermectin Actually IS a Miracle Drug

Weird how when you use drugs for what they're designed for they can be pretty great, and when you use them for something they're absolutely not designed for, you can totally die

The Race to Find a Measles Treatment as Infections Surge The measles vaccine was so effective the disease was considered eliminated in the U.S., but a resurgence of outbreaks is spurring a need for drugs.

We have very effective vaccines that prevent infection in the first place.

As a Canadian, Iโ€™m definitely not visiting the U.S. but, I feel badly for the Americans who have built their restaurants, hotels and other hospitality services through hard work and now may end up going bankrupt.

There are good people who worked hard. I know many by name and am thinking of them.

I was wondering when they would do this. It does not surprise me at all. Multiple politicians twisting themselves into pretzels trying to protect a high profile pedophile from being outed. Make it legal and problem solved.

Someone was giving away a slide projector today....and it's now mine. And yes, I have a box of slides from the 70s that I haven't viewed for simply ages. Little pleasures for joy.
