i think the nerve center of an audience that returns reliably is people who are 1st- or 2nd-degree social connections of someone in the org. (And not just for comps either.) And maybe one reason why there have been struggles since 2020 isn't just audience behaviors, but also not rebuilding that

Perhaps they can correct their original mistake of not doing everything they could to get Marin Alsop?

Additionally, I want to speak directly to Iranian New Yorkers: you are part of the fabric of this city β€” you are our neighbors, small business owners, students, artists, workers, and community leaders.Β You will be safe here.

What I truly don't understand is why the few Republicans who could end all this see a good outcome for themselves here? What is their actual goal, and how in any way is it reasonably achievable by these means?

there are a lot of people working in the government right now who want to intentionally trigger an apocalypse to create the conditions for the return of jesus christ and I know how crazy that sounds but its absolutely true

New Documents Reveal a Controversial Vaccine Study's Unusual Path to CDC Approval A new investigation has found irregularities in the ethics review of a grant to study effects of a birth dose of hepatitis B vaccine in Guinea-Bissau.

This a great piece of investigative journalism. @rollingstone.com
This should be required reading for scientists and ethicists.
Ethics matter, especially in science.

Malcolm X and the Difficulties of Diplomacy In 1964, the Black nationalist organizer toured Africa and the Middle East on a journey that would both transform his outlook and reveal the limits of transnational solidarity

On this day in 1965, Malcolm X was assassinated. A year earlier, his Africa-Middle East tour sought solidarity but drew him into rivalries he didn’t fully grasp, writes @alexjwhite.bsky.socialΒ

This Day in Labor History: February 21, 1824. Native Americans at three California missions revolted after a Mexican soldier beat the living heck out of a Native boy with a whip. Let's talk about the Chumash Rebellion and the forced labor of the California missions!

A lot of people, including me, were wondering how an IRB could ever approve this study.

The answer is that no IRB did. The person who β€œsigned off” on approval from the only ethics board that reviewed it had resigned three years earlier. His signature was used without his knowledge.

She never lived to see this moment, but it’s worth remembering that none of this would have happened without Virginia Giuffre.

She had the courage to speak out against power and privilege when it was just her word against Andrew’s.

Thanks to her, justice & accountability may finally have its day.

Some of the people complaining about not being able to understand Bad Bunny's lyrics are the same people who'll sit through an opera in a foreign language for 2 hours and then pat themselves on the back for being cultured.
