I honestly think there's something to this. We definitely don't talk enough about the profound effect the pandemic and everything that came with it had on politics, culture, everything. There's an exhaustion and hopelessness that I think we can trace right back to COVID.

The name "Popular Science" doesn't mean we shift our coverage depending on public opinion. It means we cover relevant subjects that are rigorously researched, reliable, and grounded in reality. And trans lives are grounded in reality. We see y'all. No matter what. www.popsci.com/science/tran...

Whenever you think about rehabilitating MTG, remember that she did this:

As long as he's not going to declare war on Venezuela, I guess?

This is just five minutes. Please watch this and share it with anyone you think might be moved by it. And then call your US rep and tell them to vote AGAINST all of the anti-trans bills Republicans are pushing this week. Find your rep at reps.fyi

This quote here. This is the message.

"I didn’t have the courage to come out until I was 21, and that means 21 years of pain, 21 years of unwavering homesickness that only went away when I was able to get the care that I needed. And my biggest regret in life is that I never had a childhood without that pain.”

This is amazing. And she's doing this without notes, without pauses, focused, sharp. She is very good at this.

Trump is intellectually less competent, tactically less savvy, and politically weaker than he was even a year ago. And he's blatantly, flagrantly ill. The costs of standing by him are going up, and the costs of defying him are plummeting.

He's actually getting worse, right?

Bush v. Gore and the Brooks Brothers riot are when we jumped from the sort of okay timeline to the absolute shitshow we've been in for the past quarter century.

Amazing how groceries costing more has been worse for Trump's approval ratings than fucking up the entire Covid-19 pandemic

This is shameful. It is NOT okay when it's one of ours. It wouldn't be okay if a Dem president pardoned Cuellar, either!

1. Yes, they're hanging him out to dry to try and protect Hegseth 2. He still shouldn't have followed an illegal order and deserves to be hung out to dry

winning in Atlanta suburbs is very, very good, we should keep doing that

If you ever wondered what GOP gerrymandering looks like in red states with blue cities, I present:

It's becoming clear that the zenith of Trump's strength was January 21.

TN07 is a story about gerrymandering: the GOP cracked Nashville into 3 districts when it redrew the 2022 map, destroying the Dem seat there. Fast-forward: a section of Nashville, which just 5 years ago had a Dem representative, is now voting Dem by huge margins but it's been designed to not matter.

Winning that TN seat would have been glorious, yes, but losing by a much tighter margin than 2024, plus forcing the GOP to panic-spend money and time in what should be a safe, deep red district? Still very, very good.

I feel shame, I can do so much better

A city of 10 million people now has to move. It won't be the last. As impossible as it seems, everything happening now will be a footnote to the climate crisis.

We just going to breeze right past this one, too??? We are? Okay then.

bush v gore is the hinge upon which basically everything awful from the last quarter century swings on
