#QuestionOfTheDay follow up question, make up a fake group chat you absolutely would not want to be accidentally added into because of what you'd probably read/see/get tmi about.
(examples of what I mean by making up a fake group chat: "isekai busty elf group chat", "tsundere anime girl group chat", "Star Trek captains group chat", "fantasy villains group chat", "Roman emperors group chat", "famous scientists with the first name that start with D" group chat, etc, whatever you want, go nuts.

The CDC Buried a Measles Forecast That Stressed the Need for Vaccinations
—
The move — along with the CDC’s explanation — is a sign that the nation’s top public health agency may be falling in line under HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a longtime critic of vaccines.
Did You Work on a Terminated NIH Grant? ProPublica Wants to Hear From You.

The National Institutes of Health is canceling grants that are seen as conflicting with the Trump administration’s priorities. We want to hear from researchers who have been affected.

A new detention of a scientist. This time a woman who worked for Harvard Medical School. She was detained in Louisiana and may be deported to Russia, where her life may be in danger for having opposed war.

#QuestionOfTheDay for no particular reason, make up a fake group chat that you'd want to be accidentally added to.

#DavidGeier, has published numerous articles in #medical literature attempting to tie mercury in #vaccines to #autism. In 2012, state authorities in Maryland found that he had been practicing #medicine WITHOUT a license alongside his father, Mark Geier, who was a doctor at the time.
MD authorities also suspended Mark Geier’s #MedicalLicense following claims that he #endangered #children w/ autism & #exploited their parents, acc/to state records.
#RFKJr Turns to a Discredited #AntiVaxxer for #Autism Study
#DavidGeier has been hired as a senior data analyst at #HHS. According to several people, he will examine any potential links between #vaccines & autism that were debunked long ago.

I look at a lot of space images, but this one made my eyes bug out like a cartoon character.
What you see here isn't a spiral galaxy, exactly. It's a spiral galaxy whose image was bent into a circle by the gravity of an elliptical galaxy visible at the center.
Warped space, right before your eyes!

75% of US scientists who answered Nature poll consider leaving
—@NatureNewsteam
｢ More than 1,200 scientists who responded to a Nature poll — three-quarters of the total respondents — are considering leaving the United States following the disruptions prompted by Trump. Europe and Canada were among the top choices for relocation ｣
“I don’t know when the shoe is going to drop. As a vaccine researcher we are all extremely nervous about what can happen to research funding,” said the New York scientist who spoke on the condition of anonymity. “There is no Plan B. It is economic madness as well as the elimination of a powerful technology against future pandemics. It is a freaking nightmare.”

Assuming our rulers stay on their present course, following the mantra of economic growth at any cost, then all the climate and environmental crises we're experiencing today will continue to worsen with increasingly disastrous results.
What will their response be to this?
Certainly not to end capitalism or even slow things down. That would be unthinkable!
Instead they will almost certainly opt for geoengineering at some point, using technology to alter Earth’s ecosphere in an attempt to allay the damage caused by technology altering Earth’s ecosphere.
That’s senseless and stupid. But that’s what they’ll do.
It may turn out, unfortunately, that some form of geoengineering will in fact be a necessity if we are to avoid the most catastrophic impacts of global heating.
But — and this is a very big but — that prospect should NOT be used as an excuse to continue with Business As Usual. It should not be seen as a way to prolong capitalism’s reign over us.
We need #Degrowth now.
I have resigned as a reviewer for the Royal Society. I encourage others to do the same.
Dear editors,
Today I saw some news about the Royal Society which made me very uncomfortable. As a result, I am afraid I will withdraw my voluntary reviewing work for Royal Society. I will not after all be completing this review for Royal Society Open Science.

As Robyn Pennacchia reports, RFK Jr. is commissioning a study of the nonexistent "link" between vaccines and autism.
And, unsurprisingly, to head that study he has picked a man who is not a doctor nor a scientist, one David Geier, who has been in trouble for practicing medicine without a license.
As with so much about the Trump administration, nothing to see here, more along.
