Lost in the ongoing Trumpapalooza is the excellent news that a malaria vaccination developed at Oxford Univ. over the last 30 years and costing only £3 per shot is being unrolled in malaria-prone countries. If it fulfills its promise, this will make an enormous difference to so many lives.

"Pentagon Condemns Political Violence" is one of those press releases you have to triple check to make sure it's from the real DOD website.

Looks like a not-so-mild case of crank magnetism - where there's 1 form of overt bigotry, there's a whole bunch of other bigotries.

"Cost of A&E for 1 respiratory case is about the same as insulating an entire house..." Assuming there's no follow on treatment required and over time, repeated visits will quickly get into 5 figures of taxpayers money... This will cost ordinary NZers in so many ways...

1.3 million homes in NZ were built before 2000. Living areas and bedrooms in winter are 6°C below WHO healthy minimum indoor temp of 18°C. 70% of all NZ homes have no underfloor and insufficient ceiling insulation. Cost of A&E for 1 respiratory case is about the same as insulating an entire house

Unhealthy livingarchitecturenow.co.nz We spend 70% of our time in our homes, yet many New Zealand homes are up to 6 degrees below the WHO's minimum of 18 degrees.

NZ's housing market has an #enshittification problem. And the current lot in power actively take pride in it.

So in other words, the biggest obstacle now is DNC politicians who still haven't read the room & keep insisting on triplicate consensus? They need to be more like AOC if they want to keep the Republic. bsky.app/profile/aman...

It's impossible for it to get the oxygen it needs right now, but AOC introducing articles of impeachment against Thomas and Alito is a great story. She's the best messenger to explain why Supreme Court corruption impacts the lives of everyday Americans. www.salon.com/2024/07/12/a...

Why AOC is the best messenger on Thomas and Alito's corruptionwww.salon.com The corruption of Supreme Court justices is about more than greed. It "constitutes a clear danger to our democracy"
