Babies too young to be vaccinated are at higher risk of developing deadly SSPE years after measles. They need the protection of herd immunity that anti-vaxxers are destroying.
New from me at @motherjones.com: Today, @ericswalwell.bsky.social said he's working to help the family of a Deaf kid seek humanitarian parole so he can continue attending CA School for the Deaf–and his staff brought his hearing aids to Colombia for him to use. www.motherjones.com/mojo-wire/20...
The past decade has been a parade of terrible people getting away with terrible things. I was fully braced for it to happen again, despite all the evidence.
Why would I bother to read what nobody bothered to write?
Prosecutors pushed back on the idea that the accusers were hoping to cash in on lawsuits. Only two have lawsuits pending, prosecutor Elizabeth Espinosa told jurors, and both are wealthy themselves. One woman who testified said she was raped by Alon Alexander in Aspen, Colorado, in 2017, when she was 17. She said she was the daughter of a billionaire. “I don’t want their money. I just don’t want them to have it,” she told jurors.

When you're so pissed that women want you to leave them alone at the coffee shop that you write a whole Washington Post op-ed about it.
That why people keep asking him to draw clocks and name giraffes.

Tumblr user radiqueer: Human relationships are not transactional but they are reciprocal, which I think many of you with your ‘i don’t owe anyone anything’ shtick are too happy to forget Tumblr user aromanticduck: Transactional: everything has to be exactly 50/50 all the time, pay me back for the £5 sandwich or buy me something worth exactly £5, I refuse to make an effort for you if there’s nothing in it for me Reciprocal: you were there for me when I needed help, and I’m going to do the same for you, it doesn’t matter if one of us needs more or is capable of less, because the point is not equivalent exchange but mutual care
The distinction between transactional and reciprocal has helped me on where to focus my attention.

When Substack speed-runs enshittification, this will have been a clue:

Yes! I've been replacing clocks with auto-set ones over the years, which is great, but when the time changes I forget why I'm weirdly out of sync.
