'Undermining confidence in well-established vaccines that have met the high standards for quality, safety, and effectiveness in place for decades at FDA is irresponsible, detrimental to public health, and a clear danger to our nation’s health, safety. and security.'

In essence: 'The unprecedented assault on scientific truth that has adversely impacted public health in the USA needs to come to an end so that the citizens of the USA can fully benefit from the breadth of advances in medical science.'

First, we have to be able to afford them. Our health insurance nightmare industrial complex, combined with a nearly slave-labor level minimum wage, combined with poor benefits packages via employers, etc., means that we can't afford those things anyway.

Med sædvanlig tonedøvhed vil Troels Lund Poulsen ("Trolex") købe flere F35 fly fra USA, som vi kan bruge som skulpturer i rundkørsler landet over når Amerikanerne på et tidspunkt slukker for software og reservedele.

Ik for noget, våben-tosser, men vi bor lige ved siden af en nation som producerer angiveligt ganske glimrende jagerfly, som også er meget billigere både i anskaffelse & drift, og hvor man angiveligt får kildekoden med, når man køber...

@jwcph Jeg er heller ikke militærkyndig, men jeg vil mene at Gripen med dens beskedne krav til start- og landingsbaner vil være velegnet til forsvar af vores lille land med få flyvepladser og mange øer.

I am continuing my journey AWAY from Meta and Google.

This post describes all the alternatives I have chosen, along with links to longer articles I've written about why people are leaving Google and Meta, including with longer lists of alternatives.

@etnmarchand That's interesting. I hadn't heard of Friendica. I'll check it out. What are your thoughts so far?
in reply to Scott Pfitzinger

It is small, but federated (ActivityPub). Some of the instances have plugins for integrating BlueSky as well (friendica.world and my-place.social both do). The interface is built as more of a Facebook replacement complete with groups and a calendar). Oh, and you can add rss feeds right into your newsfeed (I now subscribe to your blog in my feed!).

Down side so far... it is a little slow. But that might be my instance/server being overseas.

Denmark has donated 19 of the F-16 fighter jets to Ukraine, and now Trump has ordered an end to US support for their onboard jamming equipment, thereby helping Putin destroy this USD 291,000,000 donation.

This US administration is our enemy, and the sooner our politicians realize that, the safer we are.

@EricFielding I wish Australia would. Those subs are going to never arrive, and we'll pay near AU$500b for them 😖

I am saying it once more.

If #academia and #highered do not QUICKLY develop a coordinated strategy of resistance, then MAGA will pick them off one by one.

“Half of this stuff you can’t just do and the other half is insane,” said Joseph Howley, a professor of classics at Columbia. “If the federal government can show up and demand a university department be shut down or restructured, then we don’t have universities in this country.”

Chinese Mao Zedong also targeted the high education institutions and the intelligent with obvious results.


Most of the world, especially former US allies, are shaking their heads. But Putin and apparently 46% of Americans nod their heads as Trump implement Project 2025 faster than anyone would have believed.

"Nobody voted for #ElonMusk, who apparently sees inflicting smears and cruelty as virtuous pursuits. Nobody needs to accept the actions of a man who sympathizes with racists and wannabe vigilantes. I can hope that, when it comes to writing the history of this era (if such a thing is to be allowed) that Elon Musk is remembered as the man who inspired the start of a campaign to neuter the billionaire class."

I have been trying to keep all the tips, tricks, and resources that I think would be useful for folks migrating from Facebook and Instagram (as well as current Bluesky users) in one place:

I also created a separate resource list specific to Friendica:

Kan I huske den gang hvor vi omlagde hele medieindustrien til ukritisk at vælge hvad vi skulle se baseret udelukkende på reklameindustriens interesser, som så viste sig at føre til en meget omfattende uinformeret radikalisering af hele samfundet, hvorefter demokrati næsten holdt op med at virke, og verdenssamfundet næsten faldt tusind år tilbage til et uproduktivt og undertrykkende feudalsamfund?

Godt nok heldigt at det gik op for os mens det skete og gjorde noget ved det, hva?

While exploring the Fediverse I had to try Friendica and its sister Hubzilla. Today I'm going to give you a brief introduction to Hubzilla.

Under one user account you can have a Macro blog, a Website, a Wiki, a Forum. So ipso facto it has
rich formatting via bbcode HTML or mark-up.

There are also advanced privacy controls for self, groups, and all your data. Which implies you'll have to really use hashtags if you want to interact with the rest of the Fediverse. On the plus side it has several cool looking themes.

It takes federation to the next level by employing a concept called
Nomadic identity i.e. automatically syncing/backup your data on two different servers.

Lastly, I think it's great that there are so many ways to do social media in the petty oligarchy era. Thanks #muskrat !
