@ProfDavidLSmith If we believe that correlation is maybe not causation, why doesn’t that apply to warming and malaria? The consensus: 1) temperature effect sizes small, malaria control big; 2) rainfall big, duh; & 3) look harder at relative humidity. Favor science over advocacy.

Please look at Figure 4: journals.plos.org/plosone/articl… Drug resistance (mainly chloroquine, but SP too) were rising during the 1990s. Some people wanted to blame rising cases on temperature. Drug policy changed, temperature kept going up, but cases stopped rising. Do the math.

This article is infuriating. In particular, the discussion of the Kericho data and analysis of it. The salient point, ignored by the commentary, is that if you follow the data set a few years longer, temperature kept rising, but malaria cases didn't. science.org/content/articl…

Utah Republicans love a rapist. Let that sink in.

Since Social Security is trending, it'd be a real shame if everyone reposted this video EXPOSING Republican Senator Mike Lee as he says his plan is to "phase out Social Security, to pull it up by the roots, to get rid of it." Be a REAL shame.

Trinity Nuclear Test’s Fallout Reached 46 States, Canada and Mexico, Study Finds “The extent to which America nuked itself is not completely appreciated still, to this day, by most Americans, especially younger Americans” nytimes.com/2023/07/20/sci…

Yes, but if Trump got his way, Democracy in the USA would have ended. He did the crimes, he can do the time.

@RabbiHarvey What if I love humans, and I’m sad about the policies Israel has pursued. Especially those that marginalized Palestinians. If you say I can’t criticize Israel’s policies without you pasting on a label of being anti-Israel, it sort of makes you a fascist.

@HedonistaLibera @johnforutah Spectacularly ridiculous.

That is all

So Biden is 80. Live with it. He’s certainly sharp enough to have solidified and expanded NATO, snookered McCarthy in the debt ceiling negotiations and racked up as impressive a first-term domestic record as any incumbent in memory .washingtonpost.com/opinions/2023/…

@HedonistaLibera @JoyceCarolOates I’m sorry for the loss.

among those who have had COVID, of my acquaintance, the first two stricken (in March 2020 in NYC, long before the vaccine) died; in recent months several people (including me) were stricken with mild cases; right now, two friends have fairly mild cases. assume not unusual in US.

@AlexandraChalup How are Fox News and RFK Jr alike? If there’s a right answer, you can count on them to get it wrong.

The United States can protect itself and the free world by shutting down the Kremlin’s influence industry in America that continues to poison the nation and even successfully weaponized a Kennedy.

In the 1950s, the Atomic Energy Commission called the downwinders (mainly Mormons and Native Americans) a “low-use” segment of the population. This was a tell. They knew it would kill many of them. They offered no warnings. They knew they were bombing their own citizens.

A lot of people have suffered because of nuclear weapons. Some of them lived in Utah. This is a lovely book describing some of the consequences of above ground nuclear testing. mitpress.mit.edu/9780262071468/…

As this bird becomes X rated… Is @votedarlene on threads yet?

@HedonistaLibera @AngryBlackLady I’m on the Xitter.

@Jamesrus42 A Prosthetic Orc nose?

Without cheating, what is this?

It shocks me no one remembers this.
