A screenshot of the Polymarket website showing a prediction market titled "Nuclear weapon detonation by...?" under the Geopolitics and Ukraine categories. The market displays three betting options with their current probabilities and "Buy Yes" or "Buy No" prices: "March 31" at 5%, "June 30" at 12%, and "Before 2027" at 22%. The total trading volume shown is over $843,000.

Polymarket has created a betting market on the use of nuclear weapons. Everyone involved in this should be put in prison for life.

Means says that she didn’t mention the word “vaccine” once in her book.

This alone tells us she is unqualified.

Fun trick! Every time someone in this hearing says "we should study whether vaccines cause autism," sub in PB&J sandwiches for vaccines to get a sense of how bonkers these people sound to anyone familiar with the science. There's just as much evidence for both.

Ugh fine but only because I’m going to sleep early.

The good people of Seattle are just really happy that it’s finally time for baseball again!!!

the Epstein files are really devastating because they remind me of how many girls and women miss out on professional opportunities, mentorship and careers because of how many powerful, rich and influential men only view girls and women — and interactions with them — through the lens of sex

Georgia Fort, an independent journalist and vice president of the Minnesota NABJ chapter, was also arrested by federal agents this morning

I was sent this video of agents at her door:

You don’t know your role yet maybe, but we are all finding out just what we have to offer.

In Minneapolis, one man knew immediately what he could offer and said “Bring me your clothing”.

NO PART OF MY COURSE PLANNING SHOULD INVOLVE FIGURING OUT HOW TO PROTECT MY STUDENTS FROM BEING KIDNAPPED BY THE SECRET POLICE

This is missing “Give my cat a really nice life with all the window perches she could ever want” and “Dissociate on the bus home from campus at the end of every single day as a way of achieving work-life balance” but otherwise it’s pretty spot on

Trump’s milk thing is a racist dogwhistle. Watch this from @underthedesknews.bsky.social

There are few things the world needs less than a place that replicates all the worst bullshit at St. John’s but alas, the people who need to learn that are way too St. John’s-y for it too really sink in

If you are in Seattle, please go patronize this store because this is amazing content/promo 😂 (laughing to keep from crying, and I do kind of low-key want that orange spider plant I have never seen that before)

Great idea! My PhD is in epidemiology and I teach classes at the graduate and undergraduate levels on racism in public health. I have a good intro to the social determinants of public health lecture ready to go. I also work in health misinformation and have something ready on that too. DM me!

A beloved mentor died on Monday. His kindness was a big part of how I survived college. His intellect, ethics, and politics all greatly influenced who I am as a person and as a teacher. So my students are all his students. I'll keep trying to live up to what I learned from him.

Thanks, Mr. Tuck.

My partner @jasoncapsaicin.bsky.social made a step by step guide on how to break up ice in your neighborhood in Minnesota. Enjoy!

Betar: Late, then never

I think I got it. Thanks everyone!

Hey all, any suggestions for researchers who are really well-versed in the methodological issues with Wakefield's autism studies? I'm looking for someone to interview for an upcoming article. Re-posts for visibility appreciated!

An instagram post from usdagov and Sec. Agriculture Brooke Rollins. Trump stands behind a desk with his fists planted on it, leaning forward over a glass of milk. He's got a milk mustache and is flanked by flags. The text reads "The Milk Mustache Is Back. Drink Whole Milk."

The fashy meat/dairy aesthetic is... a lot. Nostalgia, performative/toxic masculinity, and whiteness are each a hell of a drug.

I have been advised over the years to mind my disrespectful tone.

This is precisely why I fucking won’t.

If you need to read something beautiful about community care in a time of disaster, this is a good place to start.

"During one of the much smaller disasters that preceded the really big disaster, I met a lot of my neighbors online. I can’t remember if we set up the WhatsApp group because of the pandemic or the civil disorder or both."

If you're looking for an in-depth explanation of the science behind why saturated fat is still bad for you, no matter what the influencers are getting paid to tell you:

We actually did the math, and if you tried to follow the new DGA recommended servings of different food groups you'd very likely end up eating as much as 3x more saturated fat than the guidelines recommend. How are consumers supposed to follow guidelines that contradict themselves?

The levels of grift in the hate-your-body economy continue to reach for new levels of creative destruction with the onset of GLP-1s. I’m watching them spin up a “loose skin” panic in real time.

I’m not sure America can exist without the idea that bodies must be punished.

The level of flu in the PNW isn't too high yet, so friends who didn't get vaccinated, this is your chance to hurry up and do so before the wave smashes into us. From your immunocompromised friend who really wants you safe and also not spewing out even more flu particles at me if you get sick.
