Makes me want to watch "The Day After" again. Except this time, my sis and I don't have to sneak watching it because we were 12 and 10. At least now I can have a drink when the fear of nuclear annihilation rises.

I hope you folks are thinking about this quote. If you're not, may I request your attention on this history?
one of the greatest human triumphs of my lifetime is the relentless, unceasing, heroic effort by DECADES' worth of doctors and scientists to find a cure for a disease much of the world didn't take seriously for years because it predominantly affected a community they thought kinda deserved it
No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientistβbecause the person felt she did didnβt deserve the recognition.
Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...
The dissentsβ positions in the end boil down to ignoring the Constitutionβs separation of powers and the Courtβs precedent and instead fear mongering on the basis of ex- treme hypotheticals about a future where the President βfeels empowered to violate federal criminal law.β Post, at 18 (opinion of SOTOMAYOR, J.); see post, at 26, 29β30; post, at 8β9, 10, 12, 16, 20β21 (opinion of JACKSON, J.).
Every time I re-read Trump v. United States, it feels like getting hit in the head with a mallet.
Today we honor Vivien Thomas, an African American who worked as a lab assistant because he couldn't afford medical school. He helped develop a life-saving surgical procedure for babies with a congenital heart defects. In 1976 he was awarded an honorary doctorate by Johns Hopkins School of Medicine.
1. It was not an accident.
2. It was not a staffer.
3. While the president may have dementia his racism is not due to dementia.
4. He isnβt sorry. He means every racist thought he shares.
5. His base agrees with him.
6. He will do it again.
7. No one in power will hold him accountable.
I think it's best for everyone to understand that the unified class project of billionaires right now is to do to white collar workers what globalization and neoliberalism did to blue collar workers.
It's absolutely effing mind boggling that anyone could complain about casting Lupita Nyong'o as the most beautiful woman in the world. That she is a stunning human being in all respects is of the few objective truths we have.
Some more #GraphicTruth for you today. MAGAts can spew lies all they want but we know who's been inciting violence from Day One.

@ravynfyre.bsky.social , what a lovely, strapping gentleman! I am very pleased to meet him!
One way that the reaction to Rob Reiner's murder mirrors Charlie Kirk's is that the best way to eulogize each of them is to quote their words, and in both cases, doing so pisses off conservatives.
Hey @jaketapper.bsky.social ,waiting for the followup...
@jaketapper.bsky.social hey, so when's the book coming out about trump's mental decline? Asking for a friend. #DoubleStandard
Were you intentionally leaving out "and it's not going to come from senate Democrats?" Because I can't tell if you mean a damn thing you say about fighting. Big words and tucked tails are what I expect from senate Democrats, now.
@durbin.senate.gov Shame on you, Charlie Brown. Waiting for Lucy (Mike Johnson, Thune) to trick you once again.
And you trust the faithless, the ones who worship tRump. Are you setting yourself up to cross the divide into the faithless, the liars, the drifters? My prediction for what's going to happen with Repubs holding the ball...
My prediction for what you've agreed to. History will remember you. Shame on your name.
Lucy tricking Charlie Brown with a football, a metaphor for senate democrats believing senate republicans.
Ah, I see I understand you strategy. Here's my prediction for the outcome. Let us see how history remembers you.
Cool story bro. But what about not endorsing Mamdani?
