Two gentle men who symbolize "You are cared for & you have value" to millions. We are so lucky to have them. This photo feels like a hug.

How RFK Jr. Mastered Fake Science—and Screwed Us in the Process He’s Making America Great Again—for lethal pathogens.

MRNA vaccines "probably saved 3 million lives in this country" by helping people fight COVID infections.

But Kennedy is cutting off research on them, claiming they "don't perform well" because they didn't entirely prevent infections.

@citizencohn.bsky.social explains RFK's lethal sleight of hand.

Bèbès.

There’s a burn ban in effect.

Fireworks aren’t just risky right now—they’re also really hard on people like me and on pets.

Please reconsider!

We wanted to reach out to our neighbours within the Voyager Lakes area in the vicinity of Baptizing and Second Lake and kindly ask folks to refrain from setting off fireworks. We enjoy them as much as the next guy, but they are terrifying for our horses and is very dangerous for them. The last two nights they have stampeded through the fields, it was only a few set off but we worry they will run through the fences and seriously injure themselves. We are also very concerned for the foals as they are still quite fragile. While we have no control over the actions of our neighbours we can only ask please, please refrain from having a backyard show. Thank you in advance for your understanding.🙂

Hatfield Farms in Hammonds Plains asked its neighbours in Voyager Lakes to stop setting off #fireworks as they scare the horses.

He just dropped $280,000,000 worth of artillery in a war that’s not ours, but our grandparents have to live on Ramen noodles because America can’t afford Meals on Wheels anymore.

Make it make sense.

Check this out — American stocks were on par with global stocks up until late January — and have now dropped terribly since then

Gosh I wonder what happened in late January?

I've worried about this happening every time I've walked on our poorly-maintained sidewalks and a bus or truck goes by

a $125 donation would go a lot further than you think at your local facility; sure, you won't get a caviar burger, but you'd feed multiple families!

RFK Jr. said in his Fox News OpEd that “Good nutrition remains a best defense against most chronic and infectious illnesses”.

The best diet in the world will not prevent infection if you are unvaccinated and sharing air with someone who has measles.

Michelle Obama: Kids should have nutritious meals.

The pro-life party: This is an outrage!

RFK Jr: Kids should have measles, mumps, and polio.

The pro-life party: Yes, king! Tell it like it is!
