Like, the NYT reporter didn’t even interview people in the nearby town about how THEY feel about their weird new neighbors.
COVID revisionists see the public-health response to the pandemic as a failure. But they fail to get the full picture—and that might leave us even less prepared for the next pandemic, Rogé Karma argues.
Texas House Democrats offer a brief response to Gov. Greg Abbott's threat of arrest and expulsion: "Come and take it."
Thanks Laura!

“Kamala,” by @kadirnelson.bsky.social, would have been the cover of the November 18, 2024, issue of The New Yorker, had Kamala Harris had won the election. Read about the cover that never was: nyer.cm/0syMCVN

With a lawless man set to take power after attempting to overthrow the government, America is in extreme danger.
That’s why I’m posting it today.
We need to sue for their anti-climate policies.
A tiny reminder that we have been patiently and steadily making sure The Verge is independent of tech platform distribution for years now and now you can support that independence directly by subscribing. In return you will get great reporting mixed with us calling people names for being dumb

“It’s hard to remember, but I wanted to try not to forget, too.” Read “Happy New Year,” a short story by Hiromi Kawakami that is set in a sparsely peopled Japan of the distant future.
In 1948, two Harvard professors surmised that a rare name had a negative psychological effect on its bearer. Were they right?
Reimagining the Climate Crisis Through Climate Fiction
What we’re trying to advocate for are courageous stories. Justice-driven stories. Culturally authentic stories. Stories with diverse, intersectional characters.

Photo of Siri Carpenter and a pull quote saying: "For too long, science journalism has been treated as something distinct, something extra — the domain of specialists writing for audiences who are already deeply interested in and informed about science. This is bad."

That's it. I've had it up to here with these woke zoologists. First we can't call them "shark attacks" (shark encounters is preferred), now we can't do presidential turkey pardons bc it aligns turkeys unjustly with the carceral state. www.nytimes.com/2024/11/22/o...
Trump lied all the way through the campaign saying he knew nothing about Project 2025 and now he's nominating everyone from Project 2025 to serve in his administration.
Messaging wasn't the problem for Kamala. It's that Trump can lie over and over and never pays a price.
