If you are unfamiliar with science, the month a scientific discovery is made and then verified by experts in the field is generally not known in advance
it's wild that today ICE was just like, "we're the thought police" unironically
We are literally being led by the dumbest people alive
This is a little embarrassing
Kids aren’t supposed to die
First, Steves finds a way to talk about institutions and oligarchy that is dirt simple:
1. Institutions are PUBLIC WEALTH. They are our shared wealth, dammit.
2. Billionaires can't stand wealth they don't control.
3. So they are going to dismantle our public wealth to better bleed us dry
Sometimes in this fast-moving and complex modern world, it’s hard to know what’s right and what’s wrong. But here’s a handy rule of thumb: If you are ever on one side of an issue, and Sesame Street is on the other, YOU’RE the bad guy.
I would say creator-writer-executive producer is a combo that is probably more often the case than not? It’s true that sometimes they direct and sometimes they don’t.
It’s also true that this is a Vision Of A Dude show. But so are a lot of others. This is, like, 2012 discourse, approximately.
I've been a public defender in a larger urban area and in the rural South. This is right but I want to add some wrinkles.
remember what i said about RFK Jr. being a eugenicist first and foremost? www.marketwatch.com/story/agency...
Txt STOP to opt out of updates on war plans
The whole point is not just the state disappearing whoever they want, it's you being in the habit of accepting the state choosing whom to disappear, without question. It's submission to the state. Same as with Gitmo after 9/11. The state's judgment must not be questioned.
Cool cool cool, it’s ok, I’m sure we can all function more efficiently without #PubMed
'Alarm’ was originally a call to arms.
The Italian phrase ‘all’arme!’ means literally “to arms” or “to your weapons.”
We'd still probably hit 'snooze.'
No better evidence that modern conservatism is 100% grievance-based than their opposition to congestion pricing. Do they… want every resident of New York to drive everywhere? That would destroy their own quality of life!
one thing i keep thinking about is how there is simply no way to design a constitutional system that can resist authoritarian incursion if participants in that system do not actually care that much
NEW: U.S. Department of Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy has ordered officials to stop action on all Biden-era discretionary grants to build bike lanes and other "green infrastructure" so the agency can review the project for possible removal.
Everything got so stupid so quickly.
Can’t wait until the MAHA Republicans find out that some retinol is trans
The new head of the FDA division that regulates infant formula was in recent months a corporate lawyer defending a top formula maker from claims that its product gave rise to debilitating harm to premature babies.
Every analysis of the death penalty shows that it does not deter crime and it costs more than the alternatives. So this is literally just performative gun violence and unnecessary taxpayer expense.
a lot of you just haven’t had good honeydew
Not to like toot my own horn but *every time* I bring up tariffs on the radio I define them: "tariffs are taxes American businesses pay to import goods from abroad."
Given all the lies and the fact that many Americans didn't take international economics 101, I encourage others to do this as well.
This does *not* mean no flu shots in the US next year - not by itself, anyway.
The WHO picked and published their recommended strains as always. This year. It’s an A/H1N1, an A/H3N2, and a B/Austria (+ a B/Phuket for quadrivalent shots*).
US manufacturers *can* still use the WHO guidelines.
First, they said postponed; now the meeting is canceled. That means no flu shots next year.
“'It’s a six-month production cycle,' Dr. Offit said. 'So one can only assume that we’re not picking flu strains this year.'"
Fundamentally, that's a form of mass murder.

Damn. If only there were a way to prevent measles AND rubella at the same time
Dear Abby it just dawned on my husband why I let him have the window seat on this flight that just so happens to be on a Boeing
I occasionally slip up, but this is my intention as well. And one of the ways I get myself to do it is that I mute people who clearly want to argue, even if they’re not doing anything “wrong.” If I want to ride the teacups and you want to ride the log flume, we can just go our separate ways.
