Still ganking...

Got giftcards? Lyn Lomasi has been doing a lot for children, a sick husband, and other Internet writers for twenty years. Now she has a disability, herself. Here's her Wish List of assistive technology, many items under $50.
Books
Alan Dershowitz gets censored! How do you know Dershowitz? I remember him best as the lawyer John Holt offered to send us during Virginia's school choice battle. His services weren't needed; the movement had a martyr instead, but I've literally been a fan of Dershowitz since high school.

Long, but good food for thought.
Funny
I doubt that this is true, but it ought to be...
Health
I'm not sure how much of this is news. Our late lamented Adayahi noticed side effects of statins when he tried a statin-type pill in, what was it, 2007? By 2008 the members of this web site were aware of many of the dangers the Midwestern Doctor lists here. But recent research has quantified some known hazards and added some formerly unconfirmed ones.
This one is extremely disturbing. It charges that claims that the unvaccinated were more likely to die "from COVID" than the vaccinated because some hospital staff arranged it so.

Philosophy
Rajani Radhakrishnan raises some interesting questions. We all know "you can't take it with you" when we leave this life, but if we could take one thing, what would it be? Most of us would probably name a person--does that person know? Would you take an emotion, a mental attitude? As an activist, would you be glad to lay down righteous indignation forever, or would you drag it into the next world?
I've never tried to approach life through an emotional filter, and don't want to start. But on Substack, where the Monthly Fluffball isn't paywalled (yet), I see a high level of interest in "fluff" content. I know I feel a real need to balance activism with the fun and friendly "fluff" content, myself, and suspect other activists do too. We live longer and do more good when we keep our blood pressure down.
(You may have noticed the amount of feel-good content in Outrageous Acts and Everyday Rebellions...if anybody knew how to be very very active, be seen as extremely effective, and still live to age 80, Gloria Steinem did.)
Politics
Lens credits the "team" of Senator Jacky Rosen.
Lens says the man is Walton Goggins, but does not idntify the author of the words.
