One of the more devastating stories in the film is a mother's story of her son Joey dying of influenza. youtu.be/tdtMVJE1QN4

Today’s workout music is, as hard as it is to believe, over 33 years old. It’s still a stone cold classic of industrial, Anna holds up quite well. music.apple.com/us/album/prett…

Since @HHSkepDoc died unexpectedly last week, antivaxxers have been trying to add her in their #DiedSuddenly conspiracy theory, blaming #CovidVaccines for her death, just as they’ve done for so many. They are vile. respectfulinsolence.com/2023/01/18/whe…

Let's see. There's the "clot shot," the "stroke poke," and the "slab jab." Are there any other pithy but incredibly wrong terms for #CovidVaccines that antivaxxers are using?
