Opinion | Jay Bhattacharya: Why the NIH is pivoting away from mRNA vaccines As a vaccine for broad public use, mRNA technology has failed to earn the public’s trust.

This op-ed from NIH director Jay Bhattacharya is *infuriating*. He says we have to stop funding mRNA vaccine research because it hasn't "earned public trust." Motherfucker, WHO DID THAT.

It only comes for everyone Eventually. The in-group shrinks as time goes on if they experience success in enforcing behaviour or remove undesirables. The people in the original in-group convince themselves that there is no way they could ever not be in the In-Group

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have revealed a synthetic glycosystem -a sugar-coated polymer nanoparticle- that can BLOCK SARS-CoV-2 from infecting human cells, REDUCING infection rates by NEARLY 99%. Acting as a decoy, the molecule BINDS to the spike protein, PREVENTING it from attaching to real cells.

I am more invested in this defiance of the heavens than anything on TV right now.

I'm seeing less posts about the Visa/Mastercard situation and I'm here to remind you to call them! Keep those phone lines busy! Send them letters if you want! Don't do e-mail cause they'll just ignore you!

We need to fight this now and fight for long because otherwise things won't change.

AOL still exists?

But you can make a fun game of what is the shortest interval you can have between throwing the beans before the ICE goon starts chasing you.

This you?

Saying "Give me benefits or I'll keep not doing the bare minimum of human decency" isn't the great argument you seem to think it is.

At best it's a hostage negotiation with the well being of your employees as the hostage.

Why should we have to treat you to do the right things, which you obviously seem to know what they are since you've suggested some good starting points.

Just like training a dog you don't treat them when they are purposefully behaving badly.

You're a person capable of making your own choices.

Allow me a counter proposal:

Welding goggles and a leather apron over a set of sturdy work clothes.

Marriage requires everything you were supposed to be doing to maintain good connections with friends, acquaintances, dates and even fuck buddies and lovers that you failed to do all this time but expect a marriage license to magically make you that person overnight.

I really wish I could meet RFK Jr. Just so I could look him dead in the eye and say that I can't wait for him to meet his uncle again so he can tell him how fucking disappointed he is in him

What's the saying? "The best nights we can never remember"?

there's an episode of The Simpsons where Marge tries to get a violent cartoon pulled from the airwaves, only to discover that the people backing her aren't going to stop at just the art that *she* doesn't like, and that supporting artistic freedom means accepting discomfort.

It aired in 1990.

"Surely I'm too sly and clever to be caught" he thinks to himself as he opens the door to his mistress's apartment for the first time. Only to find his wife sitting at the kitchen table having tea with the mistress and staring at him over the rim of her cup as he walks in.

is it weird that my first thought was "I know that bridge!"

We are so close to so many incredible breakthroughs & the GOP is going to take us back to the times when you had 9 kids because 7 of them would die by age 4 because their God said so? Fucking death cult.

I can't decide if I want to throw up or throw someone off a bridge after reading that.

Digital Necromancy in the Age of AI Thanks to advances in AI, we are no longer allowed to truly die. The peace of the grave and the finality that defines the human condition are all being sacrificed on the altar of artificial intelligen...

I wrote about the horrifying use of AI to resurrect the dead as hollow simulacrum puppeted by the living and why we should reject normalizing this as it dehumanizes the living and desecrates our humanity.
