The recombinant shingles vaccine is associated with lower risk of dementia - PubMed There is emerging evidence that the live herpes zoster (shingles) vaccine might protect against dementia. However, the existing data are limited and refer only to the live vaccine, which is now discon...

This study found that the mRNA shingles vaccine reduced or delayed the onset of dementia:

This might imply that Trump has *never* gotten the shingle vaccine. 🤪

Remember how in month 3 or 4 of COVID, Trump wanted LESS TESTING? As though the problem was the REPORTS of cases and not the people sick with a deadly disease?

Thankfully state public health agencies know how to track measles cases.

I never heard of this so I googled:

> While the claim that pineapple juice drastically changes the taste of semen is a popular myth, it is not supported by scientific evidence. Instead, the belief is rooted in anecdotal stories and generalized health benefits from a diet rich in fruits.

SCROTUS Justices with deep knowledge of the law CANNOT state their reasoning with these rulings.

Why not?

1) Because their rulings contradict case law and the Constitution;

2) They don't want to empower a future Democratic President.

3) The only thing they care about is enabling Tyrant Trump.

What federal entities do I value and trust the most?

Armed forces.
Department of Justice (RIP).
CDC.

Gates / Buffet / Ellison could create a new CDC - hire a lot of those who were just canned.

THAT would be a *great* use of their money. That would be a great LEGACY. 😁

When I was in 7th grade a friend invited me to go with him to a play. I didn't know what a wonderful privilege it was, to see that play, until many years later.

Jesse White.
Jimmy Stuart.
Helen Hayes. 🥰

This article shows that COVID red states death rates were higher than blue states in 2021, when the vaccines became available.

Chart shows that red states had lower vaccination rates than blue states.

In 2020, reds had 8/100K more deaths. In 2021, 30/100K more 💔

I was aware of Dr. Hotez 🥰 but didn't know who Dr. Mann is. Per this video: in the 1990s he 'discovered' the famous 'hockey stick' shaped curve of sharply rising CO2 concentration. That made him the target of petrochemical interests: Saudi Arabia, Russia and now the US - all anti-climate science.

The Way of the Dude is cool, but *every* theological discussion is overly peppered with repeated statements "Well, that's just like, your opinion, man." 🤪

Some religions are legalistic: they have *many* rules. Methodism has very few: the commandments, love God and love your neighbor.

John Wesley, the founder of Methodism, *encouraged* people to find a church that works for them - never presenting his church as superior to any other.

Fox News actively provokes fear, hate and anger by distorting facts and just plain lying.

IT IS MUCH CLOSER TO BEING A TERRORIST ORGANIZATION THAN ANTIFA.

Trump wants antifa in the streets en masse to justify marshall law.

In his remarks to the generals, he said that he had expected the left to fight back, and is surprised that's not happening. HE IS DISAPPOINTED BY THAT.

So he lies that Portland is BURNING.

It's going to get WORSE. 😱🤬🤮

Republicans in Congress can roll back some crazy: tariffs.

Justice Roberts and his crew can decide to preserve the Constitution.

Voters can put Democrats in charge of the House, at least.

Military leaders can refuse orders.

ELSE WE'LL SEE DRONE STRIKES KILL OBAMA, SCHIFF AND RECALCITRANT JUDGES.

I met Cory in a writing workshop at a Boscone SF convention. Cool guy. He posed a friendly competition. I won. My reward was a copy of a short story he had just completed. Delightful. 🥰

TIP: On Amazon I bypass the PAID result order BY ALWAYS SORTING BY AVERAGE REVIEW. Doesn't everyone?

US employers love H1-Bs for two reasons:

1) They are cheaper.

2) They can be treated like TRASH and they will just put up with it because the H1-B's goal is to get their green card - and if they switch employers, they essentially START OVER that process.

EVERY H1-B has an American equivalent.

I had that experience when I went to Harvard's Kennedy School for a masters degree: there were so many really talented people in my class - smart, organized, hard-working, great study skills - that I tried REALLY HARD and wasn't even average. 40 years later, my self-esteem hasn't recovered. 🙄🥺🤪

Nothing like a 5x draft dodger living out his dictator fantasy telling senior military personnel to slaughter unarmed civilians on American soil who are exercising their 1A rights, & telling them to violate their oath to uphold the United States Constitution.

Didn't the US elect a BLACK PRESIDENT 😱 around that time?

Millions of lower-income whites voters decided that supporting racists was more important than their economic well-being.

> We found a dose-dependent positive association between ambient TCE concentrations and Parkinson's Disease risk, wherein (those) exposed to the top decile of ambient TCE levels ... had an Risk Ratio for PD of 1.10 (95% CI 1.08–1.13) compared with the lowest decile of TCE... .

So 10% higher?

Did birth control become significantly more accessible or affordable in 2008, when the rate takes a sharp downturn?

That was the year of the Great Recession.
