Greetings, screen fans! It's time once again for your weekly tincture of intolerable bullshit, the Snake Oil Bulletin! This week we're going to the land of Stars! Hollywood! It seems that the fine people of our nation's film industry have lighted upon the next big "it" trend. Is it Vampires? Monkeys? Reverse Vampire Weremonkeys? Heavens no; it's anti-vaxxers! Piggy-backing off the success of independent anti-vaccine films, actual movie professionals have decided to adapt even more anti-vaccine scare propaganda for the big screen, and it's coming to a theater near you.
"We’re a little disappointed the phrase “life rights” is actually some charming Hollywood legalese and not the start of a Logan’s Run sequel. "
Now THAT'S a movie that would be worth making -- as long as it was shot documentary style, and the props department used some really authentic "looking" machine guns.
I bet that, thanks to a certain show starring Sally Field, a whole generation of people assumed that convents are where young women go and discover that they can fly.
I did not know that. But . . . I had learned that Jonathon Edwards, notable Calvinist preacher, is said to have died from the smallpox vaccine in 1758.
I always seem to be dating one of my parents, and not the good one, either. The older I get, the less tolerance I have for dating crazy people. It's just too tiring.
Oh, but don't you remember: we are simply liberal shills, drinking whatever Kool-aid Hitlery spoonfeeds us, while conservatives are seekers of true knowledge. Somehow.
My neighbor is convinced I read the Daily Kos, and the Huffington Post, and watch MSNBC. He has no clue I don't read, or watch, any of those on a regular basis. I don't know how people can be so willfully ignorant, but there are a lot of them out there. Sigh...
Speaking of snake oil, what we've been told about psychedelics just ain't true (duh!). Video from NY Times: http://www.nytimes.com/vide... and an article about using psiiocybin to treat depression: https://www.theguardian.com... Enjoy!

She was a real hottie.

To be fair, Tim was hired to pitch, not hit. That is Ortiz' job.
My heart broke and my stomach churned when I heard Thom Hartmann promoting VAXXED on air the other day. No! Bad Thom!! Yikes.
How dare people not be as shallow as I am?!!!!?????
My neighbor's a Foxbot, which is sad because he's a nice guy, but just as dumb as a box of rocks.

The right wing entertainment complex has some weird, powerful allure. I wish the left wing had such control over people.

Yeah, but don't ever try showing them a graph, or sharing any facts with them. The can NOT handle that.

They believe Zika is a nefarious plot hatched up by Bill Gates to sate his lust for needles piercing baby flesh:

No, not you, Thom! Ignore the hippie nonsense!
I could watch/ listen to/ read/ snort/ mainline Harriet Hall taking Wakefield apart all day. And sometimes, I do.
