It was a while before they imposed a curfew at Broadview. This is much faster. All eyes on Delaney.

It would be nice to see an elected Democrat figure out how to rein in their own police some day.

Yes! Here's the building permit, from 1934. First tenant appears to have been a beauty salon. Architects were Dewey & Pavlovich, who also used gold terra cotta at 2721-25 W. Lawrence. I absolutely love this stretch of Bryn Mawr.

I would like AOC to run for three reasons: 1. I think the D candidate in 2028 is strongly favored to win regardless of who it is 2. We need to elect someone who understands the moment and is committed to a new reconstruction 3. Of all plausible candidates I am most convinced AOC meets that bar

One thing I’m gonna say about this nazi salute is that it does not “resemble” a nazi salute, it is a nazi salute. May we all dispense with this coy “resembles” language in all cases.

I would take this a step further, and say that they literally *have* to demonize Talarico as being gay or effeminate or whatever, because the project is white Christian male supremacy and he fits that bill otherwise.

tl,dr; Scientists no longer allowed to use federal funding to publish, attend meetings, or talk to the public. They cannot collaborate internationally. Grants can be cancelled for any reason, at any time, political appointees have a final say over what gets funded, and who gets funded.

We have literal concentration camps where people of specific ethnicities are rounded up and abused and it breaks my fucking brain that everybody just keeps going to work. And at the same time, I know exactly why everybody just keeps going to work, cuz they are barely surviving themselves.

Yes, it's true, the median household net worth is around $193k. But it's not a normal slope below that, there's yet more skew, just like at the top. You'd think the 33rd percentile would be around $125k. They're not, it's more like $67k. 10th percentile is around $0. Below that, it's negative.

This is North Korea level bullshit, and a total fucking disaster for science and for the United States alike. It doesn't matter whether it fails to pass; this kind of thinking is already penetrating NIH, NSF, NASA, etc and causing severe harm. NASEM, AAAS, AAUP, etc must condemn unequivocally.

Good thing nobody covered Trump’s 2024 win as a mandate for dramatic policy change & a right-wing vision of America’s future — instead of, say, a close win driven mainly by the price of eggs and gas going up (then back down!) in 2022-23. That would have been irresponsible. Good thing nobody did that

Absolutely nothing is stopping John Cornyn, Tillis, Murkowski, & Paul from caucusing immediately with Democrats & giving them control of the Senate. The same is true of Thomas Massie & any 2 retiring GOP Reps in the House. It is a choice to continue caucusing with the authoritarian personality cult.
