Definitely seeing a pattern here, then underlining it

Abolish ICE

Dear Americans, I accept you brought this on yourselves. Unfortunately it has also impacted the rest of us. Have you got any concrete plans to fix the problem? Yours sincerely, the rest of the world.

Ok. I know this young bloke and his partner who are about to have a baby. He’s never cooked in his life. I would like to give him a cookbook for vegetarians which is as simple as, say, Jamie Oliver. Suggestions?

If Tylenol causes autism, I’m surprised the entire universe isn’t autistic. And wait until a whole bunch of expectant mothers don’t take Tylenol when they have fevers. 🤯

Talk to me about travel insurance. Does it work if war breaks out?

If you make extravagantly obnoxious demands, you have to stick with them especially when you are extravagantly obnoxious. That would be Sinclair. www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/bus...

🤣😍. Thank heaven she did.

Many Americans lack basic knowledge about fertility. @olgakhazan.bsky.social spoke with doctors and other experts about the information they think should be included in sex ed for middle and high schoolers:

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion. The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion. Our problem isn't a lack of resources. Our problem is ever-expanding inequality.

I'm probably late to the party here but has anyone else noticed that the US vaccine-finder website vaccines.gov is now broken?

So every news organisation will need two to cover the round: one to do PR and the other to do journalism.

1/At Macquarie Uni we are losing 50% of our units in my faculty. This is on top of cuts in 2020. We estimate by next year my faculty will be teaching 80% fewer subjects than pre Covid. Disciplines being cut do not have declining enrolments. @jennaprice.bsky.social @michaelwestbiz.bsky.social

Join me in condemning this kind of statement and this kind of hate.

Fun fact: Nancy Mace is trying to censure me over comments I never said.   Her res does not contain a single quote from me because she couldn’t find any.   Unlike her, I have routinely condemned political violence, no matter the political ideology.

TikTok misusing our personal data is bad. Selling TikTok to a Trump-aligned billionaire family and one of his biggest political donors is even worse.

I already beat another guy who cut Medicaid, gave tax breaks to billionaires, and hounded multiple women who accused him of sexual harassment — might as well debate the one actually calling the shots.

The Death of Meanjin. a couple of thoughts. open.substack.com/pub/greenwor...

The golden rule of reporting on neo-Nazis? Don’t interview them.

The little Meanjin collection that I helped bring into the world as editor. Just a fragment of its 85-year catalogue. What an act of bone-stupid arrogance to kill it.
