Greased in lard, goggles sealed with candle wax, eating chicken legs handed down on a pole. Mid-storm, her trainer screamed for her to come out. Gertrude Ederle kept swimming — and beat every man who'd ever crossed the Channel by two hours.

I'm seeing folks around the world posting about 'anti-vax' and 'anti-mask' pushes ...call me crazy...but it really doesn't seem organic. It seems like there is some astroturf misinformation manipulating people to work against their own health and safety.
I've spent much of my life working to increase Science Literacy, and I'm finding it hard to believe so many are behaving so much against their own chance of survival organically.
For example, why is RFK Jr in the job he has?

He flew economy, carried his own bags, and hired a PR firm to keep his name out of the papers. At 80, with a bad back, Daniel K. Ludwig chased a photographer down a Manhattan sidewalk and tried to put him in a half-Nelson. America's richest man.

Pluto: Come on, Mike. I know this game. Eris, your golden child, ratted me out just to steal my parking spot for her pretentious pink Hummer.
