Politicians and the media often turn people against each other. Resist it. Choose love.

Everyone "trusts science." Saying people don't "trust science" is unproductive and divisive (left over from outdated "the Bible" vs. "science" arguments). Differences come down to "whose science" or "which science" people trust. Addressing those differences IS helpful.

In *early 2020*, antivax activists were already making videos laying out game plans for how they thought the COVID vaccines could be used to undermine confidence in even routine school shots. And now: Tennessee.

In a post that is simultaneously delusional and a glimpse at things to come, here’s an example of how the antivax mvmt will attack any COVID vaccine in development, then extrapolate out in an attempt to also undermine confidence in demonstrably safe, decades-old school shots

DIORAMA (w/ @_sillygabe_ ) is possibly our most ambitious NFT project so far. Our goal was it to make THE BEST NFT THERE IS. We wanted this to be a journey where you feel truly connected with each of the rooms you enter and really SEE the sounds you hear!!!

For some reason, QAnon people are refusing to take their dream scenario coming true — a sitting congressman being investigated for child trafficking — at face value. They love Gaetz’s inscrutable double agent story because it sounds like 5D chess.

This is unacceptable. We now need to know more about @RobinhoodApp’s decision to block retail investors from purchasing stock while hedge funds are freely able to trade the stock as they see fit. As a member of the Financial Services Cmte, I’d support a hearing if necessary.
