On first glance I thought that said 'dentist' not cultist and thought hey that's a bit harsh
My regular reminder that IF you are in your 50s or 60s you probably need a booster for measles b/c we're the generation that got just one jab, and possibly of the less-effective killed version, too. I'm of that generation & I got breakthrough measles in the 90s & it was the sickest I have EVER been
This is a good summary

Twenty percent of ppl with measles will end up hospitalized. And we have no treatment for it.
Get vaccinated if you're able. Make sure you've got some immunity if your doctor will run your titers. If you're unsure if you were vaccinated, or have an older vaxx consider getting a booster.
Conditions at ICE's largest detention facility โ revealed in data from more than a hundred 911 calls, interviews and court filings โ offer a disturbing portrait of overcrowding, medical neglect, malnutrition and emotional distress.
I did not know a theremin could do this.
Brilliant planning and flawless execution are the hallmarks of the Trump regime.

BBC Verify has pieced together verified videos, satellite imagery and expert views after a deadly attack near a primary school in Minab, souther Iran, which suggest the area was hit more than once "by multiple simultaneous or near-simultaneous strikes".

The press corps is refusing to accept the Republicans' characterization of the Iran war as anything but a war.
We wrote this report with the OTB in mind, but it equally helps explain the Govnt's refusal to condemn the illegal US-Israel bombing of Iran.

'A report by the Museum of Art in Public Spaces showed that 484 monuments in Denmark depict historically significant men, while only 43 are of women. Beyond statues of actual people, over 120 public sculptures are female nudes.' www.nytimes.com/2026/03/05/a...
Historian here history first time as tragedy the second time as farce.
Is that hippies on drugs?
A special military operation, if you will.
AG finds that a requirement for surveillance cameras monitoring areas where fishing boats handle/discard fish is a proportionate restriction of rights to privacy and data protection. Interesting discussion of standard of review, privacy issues in workplace, and safeguards (especially anonymisation).
excellent deep dive into all of the ways that the Trump administration has used the federal budget to keep punishing critics and trying to bend them to his will. FWIW, this is precisely how Viktor Orban crushed the opposition in Hungary 15 years ago. The national budget is a powerful weapon.

@griptmedia The Dublin Women's Mini Marathon is not just for the old-fashioned women any more - from this year the new upgraded modern form of woman will also be permitted to take part:
@Sen...' 21h Give me strength. Absolute cowards on women's rights. Move to @LayaHealthcare #ProtectWomensSports #SingleSexSpaces @Vi Martin X Vhi Women's Mini Marathon Terms & Conditions 2026 The hi Women's Mini Marathon is a women's event, and anyone who identifies as a woman is welcome to take part. We have a strong diversity and inclusion agenda, and welcome women of all ages and levels of fitness in a positive and non-judgemental manner.
Really hard to comprehend that with all thatโs going on in the world these people have the time and energy to attack the Dublin womenโs mini marathon for being trans inclusiveโฆ.

The fact that Andrew Tate doesn't read books should make you want to read books harder.
"Why won't anyone date me?"
Read more books, motherfucker. It's never been easier. Listen to audiobooks.
Calling states "red" and "blue" based on presidential results not only ignores the partisanship of other statewide votes but also ignores how lousy those descriptors are at the presidential level.
