You must be either insane or corrupt to confidently claim that vaccines are safe and effective while: 1) pharma companies have been protected from liability ONLY FOR VACCINES for 40 years, and 2) nearly all of the childhood vaccines today have NEVER gone through a real safety study against an INERT placebo before they were licensed.

If sanity prevails, childhood vaccines will be understood to be: -- not safe -- not effective -- a key cause of many behavioral, neurological, autoimmune issues and allergies I could imagine a world where this is understood decades from now, and some of the formerly "pro vax" people will actually say to the "anti vax" people: why didn't you try harder to tell us how bad this all was? My answer will be: In 2026, the only place I could say something was anonymously on NOSTR. Because if I said something publicly under my name, I would be socially ostracized, and I'd be a target of a government & pharma industry that wants to do everything possible to inject my children with these harmful and untested substances.

DEI ideology says you must not see any difference between: A) a Christian immigrant from a functional country who doesn't sign up for welfare in your country B) a Muslim immigrant from a dysfunctional country who immediately gets himself and his entire family on welfare in your country DEI says you must never claim A is preferable to B. If you do, you are an evil bigot.

The average parents today will think you're reckless if you give your kid a piece of fruit without rinsing it under water first. Those same parents willingly have their 2 month old baby injected with vaccines for 8 different diseases at the same time.

Libtards will villainize gentrification. If law-abiding white people with good jobs start developing a neighborhood, they say it's is evil. The random hispanic guy who has owned a deli in that neighborhood for 40 years MUST be protected. But if England's leadership and population are replaced by people of a different race and religion, they will tell you to celebrate it otherwise you are an evil racist bigot.

In my 20s I had the same roommate for a ~4 year period. He is a muslim who was born and raised in America. I knew him because we grew up in the same town and went to the same high school. Some things that happened: — his parents once came over for dinner. he asked me to leave the apartment because he didn't want me there during their dinner. — he got married to another muslim girl. literally zero white people were invited to their wedding. it was muslims only despite them both being born and raised in america. — we used to watch game of thrones... in the show there was a group of people who followed the "lord of light". They literally killed people who didn't believe in the lord of light because he was the one true god. He voluntarily told me he believed the "lord of light" was a metaphor for islam. — he would speak about jewish people as if they were sub human — after the Charlie Hebdo killing in France in 2015 (for a cartoon depicting Muhammad)... he came home and went on a rant about how the people who died "had it coming to them" because what they did was so offensive — he said white people who keep dogs in their house are dirty

The passing of Scott Adams sparked some memories for me — summer weekends at the house I grew up in during high school and college. I'd wake up, step in the backyard, self-hit a few wiffle balls, then make breakfast and read through the comics, which included Dilbert. My dad would usually read what he wanted to from the local paper and then leave it for me at the kitchen table. I always appreciated Adams' humor and digs at corporate america and middle management. RIP Scott Adams

My daughter is getting more interested in coloring and drawing. The other day we were drawing on paper, and I drew a rocket ship. The next day we came back to the paper, she looked at the rocket ship and said to me "I drew a rocket ship!" That's when I knew she had what it takes to become the president of Harvard.

Someone should create an AI experience that shows: — Politicians making statements that were actually made by different politicians on the other end of the political spectrum... for example Trump saying something that Kamala actually said — The AI experience would would also include statements that actually were made by the politician shown saying it — It would be structured in a quiz format — At the start of the quiz, you say which politician you support more — At the end of each video statement, you have to say whether you agree or disagree with the statement/policy — Higher scores if you agree with the statements that were actually made by the candidate you claim to support — Lower score if say you agree with a statement which was actually made by the politician that you claim to be against, or disagree with a statement made by the politician you claim to support — The statements should pertain to major tangible policy items... can't be feel-good euphemisms... and can't be one-off small topics that someone could disagree with but still be a supporter of that politician
