In summary, we observed significant and consistent differences in dental caries experience in the primary dentition between Grade 2 children in Calgary (fluoridation cessation) and Edmonton (still fluoridated), Canada, 7‐8 years following cessation in Calgary. Our findings are consistent with an adverse impact of fluoridation cessation on children’s dental health in Calgary, and point to the need for universally, publicly funded prevention activities including, but not limited to fluoridation.

Damn dude, there’s not enough xanax in the world to help me cope with that mental image.

I found the NYT’s sanewashing of Trump irresponsible, so I took my WaPo subscription to The Guardian. It’s a sad reflection on the US when a foreign paper has better reporting than any domestic source.

This is a complete sanewashing article… Roberts read all the dissents, he knew exactly what he was doing. Putting Trump above the law.

Florida (desantis) recently enacted concealed carry, so I’ll be curious to see what law this nut actually broke.

Remember when NBC hired Kelly in 2017, she gave Putin a platform to spread his propaganda, she got demoted, and then eventually fired for racism? Who could have guessed that she was just another maga conspiracy nut?

And then I saw one of the Big Foots and the Big Foot looked at me.

I hate that the press never mentions that it was Trump who agreed to release 5000 Taliban fighters before the attack on the airport at Kabul.

Good thing the right wing media they relentlessly consume doesn’t constantly invent things to be afraid of.

Also leaving zero time for screening of chromosomal defects. What a horrible place to try to start a family.

Not that easy when it’s a fleet of servers in multiple remote data centers. Lots of IT folks will be spending their weekend sitting in data center cages.

It’s infuriating that people have forgotten about how utterly horrid trump was as president. From disbanding the NSC pandemic unit which led to a bungled COVID response, pretending COVID was no big deal (leading to hundreds of thousands of unnecessary deaths compared to other leading economies), crashing the economy leading to massive inflation by running it hot and gutting tax revenues (the Economist was warning about this in 2018), and of course leading an insurrection against the United States. HOW FUCKING STUPID ARE PEOPLE WHO VOTE FOR THIS TURD?!?!?!?

WSJ this morning. The last bit is a stunning self own after Cannon flushed the last remaining parts of the justice system down the toilet today.

“Leaders on both sides need to stop describing the stakes of the election in apocalyptic terms. Democracy won’t end if one or the other candidate is elected. Fascism is not aborning if Mr. Trump wins, unless you have little faith in American institutions.”

Trump at a rally this week: “Mothers will never again be forced to watch their children overdosing & hosp–lee. We will never allow mothers to watch their child hopelessly dying in their arms, screaming, ‘What can I do? Help me God, what can I do?’ We are a nation whose once revered airports are a dirty, crowded mess.”

Has any media covered that word vomit?

The oligarchs have already started funneling money to trump to try to avoid having to pay more tax.

• Meet the Billionaire Boosting Trump’s Campaign With a $50 Million Donation
• GOP megadonor Miriam Adelson to fund colossal super PAC for Trump
• Leonard Leo, Koch networks pour millions into groups prepping for potential second Trump administration
• Packaging billionaires to help fund Trump campaign, FT reports

His cult will only hear what he said. The media will ignore it because the campaign said the opposite. And the electorate who don’t pay attention won’t have a clue what’s coming if trump and project 2025 take over the government.
