Hey, is there a citation for the mRNA study with no long term side effects

Oh! I missed the livestream last week, so I thought things got messed up. My mistake. Thanks for the clarification.

AIUI from what they said last week on the livestream, This is one that didn't *officially* appear as a podcast. This is from Dragoncon a couple months back. A lot of people here probably heard it on Youtube already.

Speaking of social media: 1) Most people can't tell when they are being manipulated, let alone children. Knowing that it can occur is not the same thing as awareness. Which is why critical thinking and skepticism are so important. 2) We can put a man on the moon, build space stations and accomplish amazing things, yet, we can't find a way to use technology to counter the abuse of technology. We can't, to paraphrase Douglas Adams, use technology to overcome both itself and plain common sense. 3) As a capitalist society, we have zero will to do anything that might hinder making money. Money is more important to America than its own citizens.

Wrong one.

Just started. I think so. It's dated two months ago per the intrilo audio.

My brain could always be glitching, but isn’t this a previously aired show? I could swear I heard the intro before
