American politics is like if Cha Cha Slide was playing and got stuck skipping on “Slide to the right!” for all of eternity.

Hi friends, I have an opportunity to purchase the entire quantity of chemo I need for my entire treatment in bulk, but in order to do so I have an immediate fundraising need. I need to raise $17,000 to, in the long run, save $175,000, and save my life.

What makes academia so enticing is that the pay sucks, there is no job security, and no one respects you

Conspiracism is exhausting. Everything real is fake, everything fake is real. Everyone is lying to you except the people I tell you are telling the truth, but sometimes they have to lie. Experts are quacks, quacks are experts. It's a deadening way to live.

Everything is a conspiracy. Nothing is as it seems. Everything is connected. Agenda. Media. Government. I’m a bit disappointed in myself for not thinking this news story would get picked up in my second feed of conspiracy theorists.

One of the most gorgeous ammonites I’ve ever seen.  I find myself getting lost in the intricate beauty of this specimen. It comes from Madagascar and is about 110 million years old.   Incredible prep skills by juarezfossil (on Insta). 👏

Last year, a coworker randomly asked me to hand-deliver an antique violin across the country. I said yes, because why not. I had no idea what I was getting into, and now I need your help. A 🧵

I have reinstalled Twitter to respond to this story and make sure my voice is fully heard. I am Casey. My real name is Alex but my mom decided it would be best to hide it for anonymity. But this is my story, not hers. This is not the free press’s story.

Caroline was told that a puberty blocker would relieve her child's psychological distress. That's not what happened. More reporting from inside Washington University's Transgender Center by @EmilyYoffe : thefp.com/p/i-felt-bullied-m…

1/n Interesting bit of revisionist history from NY Times Opinion. Here’s my take: nytimes.com/2023/03/28/opini…

Opinion | Dr. Fauci Could Have Said a Lot More (Published 2023)

If officials don’t trust the public, the public won’t trust them.

there's a kid annoying his exhausted mother in the row next to me on a small plane right now so I asked him, "Have you ever thought about how weird it is that sounds existed for billions of years before ears evolved to hear them?" and now he's looking quietly out the window.

How did @azcentral get so much wrong about the Super Bowl/sex trafficking hoax, effectively promoting the myth? Lack of skepticism for one. But the big problem was that it ignored the voices of sex workers. 1/ frontpageconfidential.com/ar…

AZ Republic Misreported Super Bowl/Sex Trafficking Stats

Arizona Republic made the Super Bowl/sex trafficking panic worse by reporting sketchy stats bandied about by supposed experts.

Today, I'm announcing I will not issue any execution warrants during my term as Governor. When one comes to my desk, I will sign a reprieve every time — and I’m asking the General Assembly to send me a bill abolishing the death penalty in Pennsylvania once and for all.

This isn't "BOMBSHELL NEWS🚨🚨🚨" - it is abuse of data to arrive at a conclusion, and naked grifting. This tactic is very common in antivaccine activism and really scares people, so lets look at why its utter nonsense, and how to spot it in the wild. A thread 🧵
