Would you believe me if I told you Mark Cuban didn’t want a peer reviewed answer to his question from the top medical journal

Mr. Cuban, I'm a professor at Yale School of Public Health. Here's a paper published by one of my colleagues in the top medical journal evaluating the Medicare for All Act, which would not only get us there, but would save $450B per year. Happy to discuss! www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...

Over a decade ago, always the same as now. No matter their wealth, exclusivity, and sheer environmental destruction of their lifestyles, they will always see themselves as “sustainable” “underdogs” against “greedy” developers.

After buying it for $18.8 billion, Walgreens' new private equity owner has eliminated paid holidays for all hourly workers on Christmas and New Year's. Last year, Walgreens had a CEO-to-Worker pay gap of 410 to 1. Corporate greed that would make even Scrooge blush.

In the last half decade, our writers have shared stories about surviving extreme heat, navigating broken health care, and being shut out of elections. One of our most read pieces of 2025 is about how kittens softened an entire yard. Help support our work:

Today I learned (in a conversation with @staterepjuliareed.bsky.social about her new bill, HB 2095) that in Washington a driver is currently presumed liable for a collision if they strike a bridge, but not if they strike and harm someone walking on a sidewalk.

In all, Dayana, a U.S. Citizen, was stopped three different times in roughly the same area of Key Largo and around the same time of day NOV 7: Dayana is stopped, her husband, the passenger, is detained and taken by #immigration agents NOV 15: Dayana is stopped, then let go DEC 3: This happened 👇

If you missed it, this 60 minutes segment from 8 months ago is about the fact that many of the people sent to the Salvadoran prison have no criminal record and were going through the many legal hoops in the US. It has over 1.1 million views. TW: abuse youtu.be/_QmW99SqBuw?...

DOJ briefly uploaded this letter from Jeff Epstein to serial child molester Larry Nassar: "Our president shares our love of young, nubile girls. When a young beauty walked by he loved to 'grab snatch,' whereas we ended up snatching grub in the mess halls of the system."

Folks on Washington state community Facebook groups are arguing about whether images of local flood damage are real or not. Generative AI is making it so much harder for people to get the reliable information they need to make decisions during disasters.

If you use a private vehicle, then there are 8+ roughly north/south streets provided for you. But Sound Transit light rail has to consider not even having TWO routes through downtown. Redundancy is only for private cars. We should cut and cover every major street downtown Seattle to expand trains.

Look at all of those white people standing there laughing it up. The MSM won't bat an eye and neither will most white people in this country. Again, this is an ANTIBLACK country to its core.

Let's not get it twisted.

This is an ethnic cleansing campaign

During my second season of fieldwork on Mt. Rainer, an entomology postdoc from UW-Madison was also on the mountain, collecting grylloblattids. We stayed in the same field house for a few nights. #InsertAnInvert2024 in 2025

11 months of #InsertAnInvert2024 in 2025 down! I can see the finish line!

The combination of fascism covid more fascism genocide capitulation to fascism and the clear goal of AI tech bros to eradicate the workforce and make all jobs and future goals irrelevant as we all slide into poverty while eleven rich people become gods is really doing a number on us.

In 2007, we made California’s fire hazard severity zone maps online (google maps was still new!), searchable by address, and were told to take them down immediately for property value concerns. Seemed pretty clear there was not going to be any sanctioned versions available moving forward.

This explains something that has always mystified me about drivers who rail against bike lanes and transit. Why WOULDN'T you want people to have options not to drive? It would make your own driving better! But they don't just want good traffic, they want to reinforce the NORM of driving

I think this particular headline speaks for itself. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/n...

I guess my first follow-up question to society is what exactly are you doing with all the time you “saved” having your microwave write your will

The purpose of a system of is what it does.

My company recently unveiled in-house AI tools. Management's encouraging everyone to use them (to justify the probable eyewatering costs) Meanwhile the database that everyone does constantly use is held together with gum and the development team's tears

Northwestern’s leaders will likely try to justify their choice to appease fascist extortion with some BS about needing to help researchers get federal funds that were illegally withheld, so it’s important to note that virtually all of the researchers said not to.

I didn’t want to overreact, and took time to read this. Having done so, I’m adding Northwestern to the list of places I won’t visit or speak. The concessions re: international students and gender-affirming care are not merely symbolic.

NEW: The New York Times got a State Dept. cable telling diplomats to destroy visas that had been approved and printed to give to Afghans. And diplomats are told to do scheduled interviews but not grant visas. US shuts all legal entry routes for Afghans. Our story: www.nytimes.com/2025/11/28/u...

Huh. Never heard of this Toxopneustes before (assuming it is correctly identified). From French Polynesia. Its gorgeous ! #echinoday www.inaturalist.org/observations...

So many things happening, I nearly missed the @newrepublic.com piece I was quoted in last week. It raises the possibility of continued political threats to SNAP, underscoring a point I make often: the best way to politically protect the safety net is to build the power of those who rely on it.

Gov. Jeff Landry eliminated parole for prisoners arrested after Aug. 1, 2024, and tightened eligibility rules for those already in prison. Then he set all of that aside for one group: undocumented immigrants. Why? To have them deported. By @richardawebster.bsky.social & Bobbi-Jeanne Misick
