NEW: More Than 770,000 Children Are No Longer Receiving SNAP Benefits After Trump Changes Federal Food Program
Republican backers of Trump’s signature domestic policy bill repeatedly claimed that revisions to the food benefits program wouldn’t affect the most vulnerable. But reports from a dozen states show children are losing access.

NEW: After ProPublica contacted leading vaccine skeptic Dr. Joseph Mercola for an article on babies dying after parents turned down vitamin K shots, he publicly reversed his long-held stance that the shots weren't needed.
“The data is clear: vitamin K saves lives,” he wrote.

Pathfinder GM and Public Defender. Theatre fan. He/Him I read a lot of science fiction and fantasy books. I've been making two different efforts the last few years that are almost opposites in effect, to read more diverse voices in the modern books I pick up as well as to take more looks at some of the older foundational books of the genres I read. Both have led to some really good books. I'm also a dad with a kid who's hitting just the right age to start introducing some of my old favorites.

A KQED-ProPublica report revealed how a teacher was allowed to keep his credentials despite being fired for sexually harassing students.
His current school district has replaced him as it investigates at least two new student complaints.

I’m an elderly lefty, living in South West England who’s looking for a nice place in the fediverse where I can share/ learn/ politely disagree etc with others & (occasionally) vent my frustrations & concerns about the parlous state of the world that my grandkids are growing up in! When I’m not “doom scrolling” I enjoy gardening, bird watching, bread baking & being the best granddad I can be.

Babies Are Bleeding to Death as Parents Reject a Vitamin Shot Given at Birth
---
The vitamin K shot, a lifesaving injection given to newborns to prevent uncontrollable bleeding of the brain and intestines, has become collateral damage of the anti-vaccine movement.

"The millions of pages of documents the Department of Justice has released – more than a month late – are not about who was on the private jet, or who was invited to dinner or when they sent emails or what was in the emails and texts. One way or another, the pages are about raping children. A powerful man wanted to 'invest' money with Epstein?"

"It’s not about the money. It’s about what that money ultimately was used for: raping children. ...
Elon Musk was busy on his X account yesterday doing what the New York Times is now calling 'distancing' himself from Epstein. Why would he bother posting what I guess we could now call a distancing denial?"

Today the #children of the camp got snacks and juice. 🧃
Small things. Enormous smiles.
This is what your support looks like in real life — colour and sweetness in a place that has very little of either.
Prices in #gaza are impossible right now. Every bag, every juice box costs far more than it should.
We stretched every penny. But we can't do it alone next time.
If you can help us keep showing up for these kids & boost if you can't donate:

„More than 20% of Iran's population is under the age of 14 – approximately 20.4 million children. What Ali and many others are experiencing is what psychologists call "hyper arousal" and it can be an early warning of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).“
