@NukedMouse @AboutPediatrics I love these conspiracies! So who is "the industry?!" Haven't met him/her yet but dying to

@CraftMillard @AboutPediatrics You are a moron. Industry deliberately feeds you bad information and calls it “science” 🤣🤡

Aaron Siri calls for the United States to be more like Sweden, Norway, and Denmark, where they have higher vaccination rates than US and universal health care. Is everyone on board?

@Ferjsjdh @markkaplan20 okay Here's the truth people who smoke for 40 years tend not to stop I'm sure in all of human history it has happened but man that can't be common

@CraftMillard @markkaplan20 Alright Mr Physician, lets omit the truth just because it is hard or incovinient.

🧵 Your doctor obsesses over your LDL cholesterol. Here's what JAMA Cardiology says actually predicts heart disease: Diabetes → 10x risk Metabolic syndrome → 6x risk Severe obesity → 4.7x risk Smoking → 4x Hypertension → 4x Now look at what your doctor is focused on: LDL cholesterol → 1.4x Total cholesterol → 1.0x

@GovNuclear omg finally gov't posts I care about SALT! SALT! SALTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT do more of these polls (then grow the relevant fields!)

Which advanced reactor concept is YOUR favorite?

@EPotterMD again, since you seem to ignore this You're either doing this for attention or terrible at regulatory reporting. Fighting individual denials is wasted. There is a clear regulatory reporting pathway for invalid denials from specialists. Try that. That's how I fixed our system.

Sometimes I have to remind myself of this. The frustration I feel with healthcare is real. When I see patients told they don’t need a surgery that could help them. When I know that sometimes the real reason is reimbursement. That feeling is not random. It’s a signal. A signal that something in the system is broken and needs to be changed. Because if a doctor feels like they’re not being paid enough, the answer is not to lower the quality of care. The answer is to fix the system so patients can still receive the care they need. Anything else shifts the burden onto the patient. And that is not where it belongs.

@HarmlessHQ Absent from original post could have also saved 600M, or even the billions spent on war or dead soldiers already accrued if we had just not gone to Iran at all Iran has been "weeks away" from a bomb for decades. I don't believe Trump. Wasted war, wasted lives. Tragic.

Some people are confused and questioning why Trump spent over $600 million dollars just to rescue 1 airman. But this is not about the money; it's about the intent and what was at stake. If Trump had failed to evacuate the airman safely, it will bring America to international ridicule. And through that safe evacuation, Trump sent a strong signal to the US army - we're with you and no matter the circumstances; we'll come for you. These are the kind of soldiers you pray never to fight against. Because they're ready to risk it all for their country. And through that safe evacuation, Trump just reminded not just Iran but the entire world, what the US Special Forces are capable of. FAFO.

@aravindEO I mean yeah If PL ever wants to see another US contract They comply or cease to exist Ethically terrible but the alternative is extinction

When companies restrict access - whether voluntarily or under pressure - there is no fallback. No international mechanism. No agreed principles. Just individual companies, under individual national jurisdictions, making unilateral decisions about who gets to see what globally.

“Satellite imaging firm Planet Labs said it will indefinitely withhold imagery of Iran and the conflict region in the Middle East to comply with a request from the US government.” Commercial Earth observation sector with no global governance is in the news again! cnbc.com/2026/04/05/sat…

@ankoromochuu Wasn't there a prime minister that was really into Elvis? that was cool

正直、アメリカ人がこんなに日本を愛してくれてるとは知らなかった。 むしろ、アメリカ人は日本を下に見ていると思ってた。左翼にそう思わされてた。 実際には尊敬してくれていると知って、心があたたかくなってる。 アメリカ国内の日本の良いイメージは、安倍元総理の貢献も大きいだろうね🇯🇵🤝🇺🇸

@Saphira123456 @PebMet1 a vehicle that launches every 3-4 years for 4 billion each is not functional or meaningful regardless of reliability. We aren't going to launch every 4 years and 100 billion dollars later to do anything useful. SLS is symbolic, not functional.

@CraftMillard @PebMet1 Reliability is far more important than undemonstrated reusability. SLS has demonstrated reliability. Starship hasn't. Therefore, SLS is better.

I remind those who still insist on bashing SLS and Orion after the succesful launch of Artemis II, SpaceX is not even close to having a pressurized crew cabin ready for a moon mission let alone a mission ready Starship which even SpaceX followers still call a prototype.

@nickmmark They also offloaded the heavy lifting to commercial partners. NASA is just a manager now, not a do-er. Even SLS, its flagship, is mostly just for show. It's non-reusable and multi-billion dollar nature make it unsustainable. Wasted, albeit symbolic, effort.

Certain people love to criticize NASA after Apollo but it’s important to remember that they are doing a LOT more with a lot less today. Constellations of earth monitoring satellites, multiple space telescopes, robotic missions on multiple planets. More than 100 active spacecraft across the solar system. They continue to develop new technologies like electric aircraft, nuclear rockets, etc. Plus they’ve maintained continuous human presence in space for decades AND returned to the moon. All with much less funding than during Apollo. Currently NASA receives just 0.3% of the federal budget, compared with 4-5% at the peak of the Apollo program. Show me another federal agency that is doing so much more with so much less funding.

@ChildrensHD Reminder to everyone reading this that Children's Health Defense is a cool name for a completely fraudulent organization with no science Also we don't have children ROUTINELY DYING FROM PERTUSSIS NOW. FOR SOME REASON.

🚨 Most people don’t realize this: The Institute of Medicine’s own review found an association between the pertussis vaccine and autism. Lawyer Aaron Siri breaks this down. “The controversy around vaccines started with the pertussis vaccine, not the MMR vaccine.” “The 1986 National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act, directed the Secretary of HHS to look at 11 commonly claimed injuries from the pertussis vaccine.” “What's one of the ones they asked HHS to study? Autism.” “The IOM in 1991 said, ‘Sorry, can't tell you whether the pertussis vaccine does or doesn't cause autism because you haven't done any studies.’” “Fast forward to 2012 when the CDC and HRSA again commissioned the IOM to again look at the entire body of literature on whether the pertussis vaccine causes autism. And what did the IOM conclude again? The same thing.” “The IOM said, ‘Sorry, we could not find any study, to support that the pertussis vaccine doesn't cause autism.’” “The only study the IOM could find with regard to the pertussis vaccine and autism found an association between the pertussis vaccine and autism.” “But what did the IOM do? It threw it out.” “Why?” “Because it lacked an unvaccinated comparison population.” “It's funny how that happens.” @AaronSiriSG

@toobaffled This is literally what every single meaningful prescription medication comes with. Did you just discover this

𝐄𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐌𝐌𝐑 𝐯𝐚𝐜𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐭? 😳 Ever actually looked at the MMR vaccine insert? I mean, the real one from the manufacturer — the long, tiny-print document that comes with the vial. This thing is wild. It has 42 paragraphs packed with precautions and possible adverse reactions. Forty-two! That’s not exactly screaming “totally safe and simple” to me. And get this — it straight-up lists stuff like measles (or measles-like rash/illness) right near the top of reported reactions, along with things like pancreatitis, diabetes mellitus, anaphylaxis, arthritis, encephalitis, pneumonia, nerve deafness, retinitis, epididymitis… and even death in some cases. The insert doesn’t claim it’s 100% safe or effective for everyone. In fact, it spells out a heap of warnings, contraindications, and things doctors are supposed to watch for. Makes you wonder why we’re not encouraged to read these before rolling up our sleeves (or letting our kids). Informed choice starts with seeing the fine print, right?

@YueKuratsu @bykagetoki why?

@bykagetoki フロッピーディスクは5.25インチと3.5インチのものを今もたまに使いますが、毎日使ってると平気なのですが何ヶ月とか使わないと安定しなかったりします……

これ使ってた人いますか？ 私の周りだとフロッピーディスクの次世代は圧倒的に3.5インチのMOが多くて、これの実物を見たことがないくらいです😅

@FrizzellH @Lukestonehm @thunderf00t That's a weird/uninformed post Falcon Heavy has a 100% success rate across 11 missions, why would you worry it might not "manage" a launch? They also don't launch often because heavy payloads are rarely needed, not cost/delays.

@Lukestonehm @thunderf00t Ok. So 1.5yrs ago. Let's see if they actually do manage a launch after 2yrs or not.

This EXACTLY the cope Im talking about! Hey the score card for those not paying attention. Successfully Moon launches Artemis 2/2 Missions failing to reach orbit Starship 0/12 Furthest starship has ever been is the indian ocean!

@kero_gami "shit of shit" is probably a translation error but I love that phrase lol and you're right. Not sure if you knew this, but it was supported mostly because certain senators wanted job security for states that make these parts. It was not made with science in mind, unlike Starship

SLS(アルテミス計画で使うロケット)は「再利用するために作られた」スペースシャトル用の部品(エンジンとか)を「使い捨てロケット」に使ってるのほんと嫌い。 「余ってる部品使い回すから安いロケットが早く作れるよ！」とかのたまっておいて何年も遅れたあげく数兆円の予算超過。ほんとクソofクソ。

@danwinesalot @JediDunn @ManaByte better question: who can go there more frequently? SLS is $4 billion/launch and non-reusable. SLS is not at all a realistic solution to frequent space travel. Artemis II is a symbolic mission, not a functional one.

@JediDunn @ManaByte Who is going to the moon bud?

There was a great documentary on Netflix a while ago that showed how NASA and SpaceX operate differently. NASA won’t build something until they (think) it’ll run flawlessly and then they build one. SpaceX will blow up 50 rockets and learn something from every failure and iterate from that.

@DakotaAstroWolf "development of the lightbulb did not come from progressively modifying candles"

Surely I cant be the only person that prefers the real astronaut buttons and switches over the iPad kid open mouth cough with fart ahhh touch screens.

@rookisaacman Could we improve imaging quality of launch for Artemis III please?
