“How dare you accuse me of being antisemitic just because I called out rootless cosmopolitan Zionists for their disloyalty and moneylending”

IT'S THAT TIME OF YEAR AGAIN!!! We are CLEARING TEACHER WISHLISTS! This is for a 2nd-grade teacher in the Los Angeles area! I know times are tough, so don't feel pressured to purchase. Sharing this is also quite helpful! <3 Once this is cleared, I'll share the next one!

they want to resegregate the country, and the plan is to make it impossible to show discrimination unless you have notarized affidavits with wet-ink signatures that admit to discriminatory intent. they can help that goal by making it harder to measure on a broader basis.

same goes for universities mandated to have “political intellectual diversity” among staff

When I worked in WaPo Opinions in 2017-2018, senior editors specifically told junior editors not to factcheck Marc Thiessen and other MAGA columnists, otherwise they wouldn’t be able to publish anything by them at all, and “we need them for intellectual diversity.”

Leaving aside his aphasia, the Trump administration, most notably Marco Rubio and Elon Musk, are directly responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of children across the globe.

Local plumbers two steps ahead of every university administrator in america 👏

Civil wars don’t necessarily look like Gettysburg.

There's a big literature on why conspiracy theories are so dangerous. If I had to pick just one reason, it's because it gives you a license to believe whatever you want. You can explain anything away as a conspiracy.

quite literally eliminating sources of publicly accessible knowledge

my primary hobbies are filling in 2FA codes and clicking boxes to opt out of cookies.

I spent a couple of years without having to think very often about how stupid an opinion Bruen was and that was very nice.

This also illustrates the way that being ultra-wealthy functions as a nationality. Up-armored passenger cars have existed for decades and are not rare in many parts of the world; generally wherever the Gini coefficient is higher. (Brazil, South Africa, Nigeria, parts of Southeast Asia)

Non-compliance is NOT a capitol offense & federal law enforcement are not entitled to execute summary judgement.

Reminder: Republicans speak in bad faith all the time. They DO NOT CARE about cisgender men going into girls’ bathrooms and they never have. They only care about eliminating trans people from society.

“Testimonies included in the brief include instances of guards denying children medical care, providing inadequate education, constantly screaming at them when they attempt to play, and in some cases, attacking their physical well-being…”

i didn’t know who john healey was until 5 minutes ago someone please quickly tell me what my rigid and belligerently uncompromising views about him should be for the next 24 hours.

Incredible that while reporting on the Trump admin attacking the NYT’s 1A rights, the very same outlet uses the admin’s framing of “articles about the security capabilities of Trump’s new Air Force One jet.” The reporting was about the Secret Service saying the jet was deficient w/r/t security!

Love to see it. You can't enjoy the community you are employed to destroy. GTFOH

as a science experiment it’s impressive what Tesla achieved with cameras only. as a product for two-ton vehicles traveling highway speeds, this is criminally reckless.

Nachas-mode activated!

I gotta say, having a Ukrainian Jewish man leading development of weapons to defend Ukraine from Russian Nazis is a special source of pride.

I’m not an oracle, I’m just a sparkling prognosticator.

I know he’s just doing words, but Trump pulled the U.S. out of the Paris treaty - twice. Also, the U.S. actually would have domestic “good neighbor” pollution rules in place today were it not for Trump’s SCOTUS appointees killing it in Ohio v EPA.

It’s crazy anachronistic that so much stuff for little kids (books, toys, songs) is about farms and farm animals. A hundred years ago, 26% of the U.S. labor force worked in agriculture; in 1880 it was over 50%. Today it’s less than 2%. Kids don’t encounter cows and pigs except on a plate!

In the 2028 election there will be a lot of men who didn’t publicly support Trump (bc Trump was just too toxic an association) now proudly supporting fascism. Also when Bill Maher dies, nobody will ever say his name or think of him again. Ever.

Once again, we aren’t going to be able to have sensible discussions about the cost & value of college until we start actually paying attention to all the data & not just using vibes & actually discuss seriously the real reason college costs so much these days & didn’t 50-60 years ago:

fuck it we ball

It’s the “high-impact, core memories” line that will haunt me forever.

And lest we forget, School Choice is a euphemism for vouchers. School vouchers exist because racists wouldn’t accept desegregation.

Whoa. ATRC is one of those super esoteric things in natsec law that gets mentioned once in class as a "btw we also have this; this is how it's structured; it has never been used even once since it was established in 1996. But it's still technically there" things

Also no one is proposing we have a golf course based economy with tens of thousands of new golf courses being planned across the country.

School vouchers are a scam. The lack of effective oversight is a feature of these programs, not a bug. Because when you think about it, the vouchers simply aren’t enough money on their own to operate a small private school *and* comply with the same rules and regs that a public school does.

Hahahahahahahaha

Public funds belong in public schools.

"because I genuinely feared where those behaviors could lead. From my perspective, those warnings did not receive the attention I believed they deserved." NPR reported on a court filing from Lucinda where she accused him of being physically aggressive with their then 13-year-old daughter. /

"Throughout the years, I brought my concerns to law enforcement, the courts, and the Department of Health and Human Services. I tried to explain what I believed was a long-standing pattern of abuse, intimidation, manipulation, and controlling behavior" /

NEW: A second ex-wife of David Brouillette, the ICE agent who killed Joan Durán Guerrero in Maine, Lucinda Brouillette, issued a statement this morning. "If you were to ask me whether I believe David Brouillette is capable of this level of extreme violence, my answer is unequivocally yes." /

In California prisons, access to food and communication is restricted for people accused of breaking rules. “How does cutting off access to writing paper and stamps and food reduce violence?” asks a lawyer representing prisoners with mental health issues.

Ezra Klein is not fit to shine Danielle Allen’s shoes. She’s a MacArthur fellow with two PhD’s.

Absolutely 💯 percent right. I know some people aren’t fond of Mamdani; this isn’t even about that. The guy really has generational talent w/ retail politics. I can’t think of the last time I knew of a politician who ran for office because they really wanted to *do* the job.

This is a popular misconception. Both the Odyssey story and the use as a word meaning journey are taken from the Honda minivan. Took a bit of retconning and time travel but that’s how it happened.

Just read this for the first time. Insightful and cleverly written. Highly recommend if you haven’t read it before.

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh gasp ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

You remember that classic Jenny Nicholson tweet about insecure men trying to sound intellectual but just coming off like they’re in a fifth-grade production of 1776?
