  • so if you're not a sex worker or go to sex parties, you'll almost certainly be fine

    The WHO article you linked below says:

    It is recommended for people at high risk to get vaccinated to prevent infection with mpox, especially during an outbreak. This includes:

    • health workers at risk of exposure
    • men who have sex with men
    • people with multiple sex partners
    • sex workers.
  • Did you read the thing you’re linking to?

    It says:

    Anyone can get mpox. It spreads from contact with infected: […]

    • materials, such as contaminated sheets, clothes or needles […]

    Person-to-person transmission of mpox can occur through direct contact with infectious skin or other lesions such as in the mouth or on genitals; this includes contact which is

    • face-to-face (talking or breathing) […]
    • respiratory droplets or short-range aerosols from prolonged close contact
  • I knew a woman who took a job in a porn shop while she worked on her book (a children’s book), and depression set in when she realized she hadn’t touched her manuscript in 2 years and her career was being a porn clerk.

    She ended up becoming the manager of three stores.

    Edit: This was back in the ‘90s, when people bought porn in stores.

  • The Nevada State Democratic Party filed a lawsuit in June accusing the Greens of failing to gather the required number of signatures

    This is why I don’t like calling them the Democratic Party. They do such undemocratic things.

  • One thing Harris can do without consulting congress is supporting full Palestinian membership at the UN.

    She just has to instruct the state department to instruct the US ambassador to the UN to vote for Palestinian membership. Palestine would be an international recognized state within a week.

    It would be the first substantial progress on the Israel-Palestine situation since 1967.

    She can do this while continuing to provide military support for Israel. But it would increase legal and diplomatic pressure on Israel.

    Perhaps more importantly, it would send a message to Israel: We are willing to depart from the status quo. Don’t take our protection for granted.

  • "The Green Party", except you have put stuff from the unrelated England and Wales Green Party (which I support from time to time).

    Firstly, I haven’t put anything there, because I just learnt about the sub now. Secondly, the side bar says it’s for green parties around the world (but primarily focused on the Green Party USA).

  • The sub is for people who support the Green Party. But people who do not support the Green Party are showing up and downvoting everything positive (and upvoting everything negative). That’s what I mean by a brigade.

    Stein is why we got Trump in the first place.

    Well then maybe the Democrats should try being less crap.

  • Thanks.

    Looks like the sub is being heavily brigaded by the major parties, but that’s okay. Let them cope with how miserable their parties are.

    Let yourself be happy supporting a party you can actually feel good about.

    Be on the right side of history.

  • Look, I’m not trying to make a dig about Trump’s age, because I’m not about that ageism.

    But he is 78, and with the things he’s been saying lately… is he going senile?

    He thinks people didn’t know Kamala’s black until recently (despite her “that girl was me” zinger in 2020, about segregated bussing). He thinks people don’t know Kamala’s last name.

    Is it just him who can’t remember, because he’s losing his memory?

  • All we know about Harris’s conversation with Netayahu is what Harris herself said to the press after the meeting, and she didn’t say anything different from what Biden has said.

    And she wasn’t in the meeting where Biden met with Netanyahu.

  • So where's the daylight between her and Biden on this?

    I too would like to know this.

    And if she doesn’t want to say what she would do differently from Biden, I would at least like to hear her say that she’s willing to do things differently from Biden.
