This is a big problem. Lumping together deaths among peds/cyclists and car occupants obscures the extent to which the US fails to protect people outside of cars. Congress & safety advocates should push NHTSA to stop doing it.

Goes without saying: this is a feature, not a bug By the time they throw out your case, you've been brutalized by cops. You spent hours or possibly days in jail. Your family had to scrape together bail money. You miss work to go to court. You spend months terrified of months or years in jail

Last year I earned about $30k in wages and $5k in tips according to my tax return. The amount of tax I paid on tips in previous years is certainly less than the increase in my annual healthcare cost since last year

a weird belief that is held across basically all sectors of American life is that boy dollars and boy votes are better than girl dollars and girl votes and so if you have a lot of the latter you need to be constantly trying to exchange them for the former

People have been shocked that an AI company is offering chats with an AI Jesus for $1.99/minute but it's important to remember and respect the fact that a core part of American evangelicalism is being financially defrauded by people who claim to speak for god

A powerful man sexually pursuing a young woman who works for him is oppressive. It immediately limits and reshapes her future to her detriment, whether she is physically forced into it or not. It’s coercion either way, and that is why it’s so wrong. It’s an abuse of power.

Contrary to public perception a huge % of pregnant teenagers in the 1990s were impregnated by adult men. The younger they were, the larger the average age gap between mother and father was. Fixing teen pregnancy was in part a clampdown on statutory rape. That's what conservatives want to reverse.

Setting aside all other questions about impeachment, the idea that trying it against a president everybody hates would be a political *loser* for the opposition party is preposterous. Just say you don't want to work! It's more relatable

You have more in common with the people of Iran than you do with anyone in this administration, any member of the technocracy, anyone who is profiting from this war, or any billionaire. When you see Iranians forming human chains outside key infrastructure sites, you should feel a sense of kinship.

From Reconstruction to "We tortured some folks," from Iran-Contra to January 6th, a prevailing ideology of American politics is that no one should face consequences, nothing should be fundamentally changed, and we should all happily move on as if ignoring the problem solves it.

Can't tell you how many members of Congress who *at best* had nothing to say when I asked about the Minab girls school attack. There is a profanely cold detachment inside Capitol Hill, a mode completely unrecognizable to common human decency I wish I could properly convey to you.

Back in the 70s, there was a group of radical anarchic drag performers in San Francisco called The Cockettes who ran around the city doing weird art. This line from a documentary about them goes a long way toward explaining why something like that was possible back then.

Most mainstream discussion of trans rights boils down to cis people being angry trans people are continuing to call attention to all the increasingly harsh, discriminatory measures targeting us. "Don't you people understand we've already decided your lives don't matter?" is the subtext.
