Just in time for the 2026-2027 vaccines, a new review shows that COVID19 vaccination significantly reduces the risk of severe illness and hospitalization across all age groups, including kids. Pregnant women were also protected, as were their babies. Don’t forget to schedule your vaccination!

"If trans people want a boycott of The New York Times, where's the call to do so?" Here is a declaration laying out how the NYT is a key driver of trans genocide, why boycotts work and why anyone who gives a damn about trans lives and rights must boycott The New York Times.

With 100° temps a new norm, Republicans are trying to stop all federal heat safety protection regs, now or in the future. HR 6213 prohibits OSHA from creating or enforcing ANY national heat safety standard. We MUST stop it! act.seiu.org/a/fedheatreg... #WeFeedYou

With the terrible, horrible very bad air in so much of the US, here is a video I made showing how you can make your own air filter for cleaner air. At home. With just a few items. (I made it during pandemic but it works for any time you want cleaner air.) www.washingtonpost.com/video/scienc...

Tired of ICE mercenaries terrorizing your community? Afraid that they're going to murder yet another person—perhaps one of your neighbors? Find out where they sleep. Go there and make sure they cannot sleep. It's easy enough. Here's how people did it in Minnesota: crimethinc.com/noisedemos

Today is the last day to comment to the FCC that LGBTQIA2S+ names, stories, identities don't need a warning label. This new potential rulemaking is an attempt at criminalizing the mere fact of being trans or otherwise queer, in the name of discrimination, bigotry, and persecution. Tell them no, now.

From a certain point of view, all modern vampire media is this. I mean, when was the last time you heard of a fat, ruddy-faced vampire who went around killng their family members. Historically that's what European vampires were.
A thirty-volume adaptation of DRACULA, each weirder and more esoteric than the last, with little to no common thread, like the fan-made SHREK and ROBOCOP remakes But deadly serious

Has anyone actually read that Alexa-makes-kids-talk-rudely paper? Because it's JUST A ONE-PAGE THOUGHT EXPERIMENT. No data, just possible concerns. And maybe they're legit, but the paper itself provides no data, no evidence, just "this could happen"-s. Here's the whole thing:

NEW: The President once again called to eliminate federal library funding in his federal budget proposal. We have been here before. And when we make our voices heard, we can overcome this again. Tell your Senators to reject the cuts & #FundLibraries in next year's federal budget: ala.org/showup
Ignoring your hardcore users is one thing, but Bluesky employees have been actively hostile to them, repeatedly. Of course the hardcore users no longer trust them!
I also suspect a big part of the backlash is that dedicated users have a long list of features that we've been requesting for years now - and this was absolutely not on that list. (The ability to make accounts private is the most important unrealized feature. I know it's hard! But it's key.)

We've got to stop Trump's farm worker wage cuts. Their H-2A rule change drastically cuts wages for H-2A farm workers and local workers alike. We filed suit in federal court to block it, but lawsuits take a long time and are very expensive. Please help. act.seiu.org/a/trumpswage... #WeFeedYou

I interviewed Roblox's head of parental advocacy for Vulture about safety on the platform 👀
As Roblox faces dozens of lawsuits from concerned parents and municipalities — including a new complaint from L.A. County — we asked the company’s head of parental advocacy how she’s thinking about keeping kids safe.
