I've seen an uptick in links to Substack lately, so here's yet another reminder:
Substack is a transphobic, pro-Nazi platform. Many of will not follow links to it. We are not giving that place any eyeballs or clicks.
Publishing there, or linking to it, helps the Nazi site owners. Please don't do it.

I decided to give journa.host a shot because of the company.
I am a Brazilian data journalist, kind of a pioneer here in that for the last two decades.
After a long career as a media employee (finishing as the first audience development editor in Brazilian press, at Folha de S.Paulo), I currently I run Lagom Data, my studio. We work with small media, nonprofits and academia to listen to data.
I'll often toot in Portuguese - and sometimes about Deep Purple.
The "American Action Forum" looks at health care costs & prices
americanactionforum.org/weekly…
Reminding the reader that cost and price are not necessarily correlated. Plus how political statements often mix them up.
Plus a chart at the end of Hepatitis B cases & a claim that there will be 1.4K (70%?) more cases with removal as "required" for all kids versus kids at risk. No mention of vaccine injuries or deaths.
When politicians promise to “lower health care costs,” they’re usually talking about prices. That distinction matters more than it sounds.AAF
LOL, but very political.

A federal appeals court on Friday afternoon temporarily halted Judge Boasberg’s contempt hearings in the Alien Enemies Act deportations case scheduled for next week.
Earlier Friday, Judge James Boasberg made it clear that he was not backing off from his planned contempt hearings and threatened to pierce through attorney-client privilege in his order denying the government’s motion to reconsider.

Millions of people are feeling this right now, or something very similar, or even worse.
It weighs on us for years, the slow crank of a vise while choking panic rises by almost invisible inches.
And somewhere some smug assholes are sipping champagne and congratulating themselves on not being us. They're the ones who put us here. We all saw them laughing on their balconies at the original Occupy.
Don't apologize for letting the anguish show. No, we don't want to weigh each other down with our distress, but burdens are lessened when shared, and our suffering should NOT be buried.

It's like claustrophobia, having kids to feed and no money. I am terrified, and it's hard to breathe. I know my blood pressure is high. And I can *see* my blood sugar spiking when I get panicky.
But the worst part, aside from stressing over how to manage shielding my kids from all this is, I can't shelter my wife. I can see the fear on her face. She keeps not eating because she says she isn't hungry, but it's nerves and I know it. And no matter how much I try to convince her it won't work because she'll eventually break, she keeps trying to save money by skipping meals on purpose. She thinks she can just power through it, and maybe she can, but there will be consequences.
You do NOT need to apologize for this.
I wish all of our stories were being blasted through loudspeakers every minute on every rooftop within a mile of each of the assholes responsible for putting us in this entire fucking situation.
@violetmadder I have so much anger

With the shitbags who are raining this misery down on us. Every last fucking narcissistic billionaire piece of shit on the planet can kiss my fucking ass. I hope we all get the chance to spit that in their faces someday, with their mansions and yachts and ballrooms burning in the background.
That's me biting my tongue.
