Anyway, a very good FOIA to file this morning would be for all emails and calls received in the last 24 hours by the immigration “judge” who issued the order.

Extending the Affordable Care Act tax credits for the next year will cost $23 billion. Donald Trump was happy to round up $20 billion to bail out Argentina, but Republicans won’t lift a finger to help American families who are struggling to pay for health care.

Just discovered an insane new form of co-intelligence where you briefly share the mind of a great thinker in history and then a portion of their mind travels in yours for the rest of your life. Calling it a "book."

Maybe this is a conversation we need every 10 yrs in a consumer-driven capitalist society. Purely transactional relationship is an inappropriate model for ed & for healthcare too. It’s also anathema to religion, despite the “prosperity gospel” charlatans. What makes us human isn’t measured in ROI.

If the media would just plop a giga-passing trans chick in front of a transphobic politician and ask them where she should pee, I think that'd be a lot more interesting than two cis people talking about a dude with a beard pretending to be trans in the women's restroom.

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque: "This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".

This video illustrates something I'm always telling new Tennesseans: our weather is so variable because the jet stream moves back and forth right above us. This shows how the temperature can drop 30 or 40 degrees overnight.

The Boring Company says about their tunnels: "the final transportation system is zero-emissions with the most energy-efficient (as measured by kW-hr per passenger mile) available". The last part seems incorrect. Can someone who knows something about electric buses help me?

Not to defend Olivia Nuzzi, who broke every rule in journalism and promoted a charlatan to his current position. But it's incredibly telling that she will lose her job, but RFK Jr. gets to stay in his job despite the reports of his drug use, his affairs and his defenestrating of public health.

I genuinely think this (from:
sootyempiric.blogspot.com/2025/08/woke...
) is going to be lots of people's unironic take on these years. I do think Woke 2 will be a thing, and I don't think this was inevitable but rather the result of very bad strategic choices being made by the right and centrists.

The interesting thing about the TN-07 vote is that Van Epps doesn’t seem like a terrible candidate—the 15 point swing in favor of Democrats isn’t primarily a candidate effect. If 2026 is anything close to a +15 environment for Democrats, it’s going to be the biggest wave election in a long time.
