Don’t Wait For Everybody – Episode 029
Youtube allows ads that make a really great argument for the government to crack down on this stuff.
These bonkers eyeglasses commercials aren’t even the worst commercials I’ve seen on Youtube, but a lot of these ads are great arguments for government regulation that’s unfortunately not happening. Ever since I was getting new glasses recently, which involved a multiple trips to eye care over a couple of months in order to get it […]
When something is sold with a “trick” to get around safety regulations, that’s a big red flag.
There are tons of supplements sold with this trick, where they have influencers and mommy bloggers, and accounts that seem like randos on social media, making the claims, even when the label on the bottles say something else, something serious, because there’s a rule to try to protect people.
The Wellness Company is right-wing, and pushes covid quackery including anti-vax crap.
Deregulation of supplements has funded the right-wing greatly, so much so some think that regulating it would go a long way toward defeating the far right.

Anyone telling anyone that people refused covid mitigations because of personal choice based on rational rejection of vaccines, testing, masks, and remote work, is either lying or themselves a fool.
Another data center project sprung on people by surprise in Missouri by politicians who signed NDAs.
When a big decision with serious ramifications is rushed, that’s a big big red flag for scams and fraud. People are right to want to slow down and allow stakeholders to engage in critical thinking.
I’m sending postcards to elected reps asking them if they’ve signed NDAs.
Elected officials shouldn’t be allowed to sign nondisclosure agreements.
Public officials who sign NDAs should resign because they don’t understand the job.
And there really ought to be a law to prevent any such thing from ever happening where elected officials sign agreements to keep secrets from the communities they serve. I have been hearing about NDAs a lot in relation to data center project plans in Pennsylvania and in Wisconsin, and it’s shocking how this has […]

Even the NIH is being overwhelmed by AI generated submissions. Where does this end?
Someone needs to put a stop to the AI slop.

Every wage ought to be a livable wage.
My letter to reps: Please hear me clearly on this, the republican leader of the pennsylvania house is a dipshit. Every wage should be a livable wage. That ahole’s 16 year old son also deserves to be able to save up for college or a car or whatever else, because heaven knows if he didn’t […]
