Has anyone been checking into shorting of Johnson & Johnson stock at the white house?

SCOTUS may dive on this grenade for Trump...but for those lower on the food chain, I wouldn't count on the same.

I'm not a legal expert...but this sure looks like SCOTUS genuflecting to Trump.

People unfamiliar with science will say "well we have one paper not showing a link and another paper showing a link." This is misleading because the papers are NOT created equally. The scientific/methodological rigor of Ahlqvist is much stronger.

Time to celebrate the equinox!

At the Nuremberg trials, Karl Dönitz was convicted of war crimes for the sinking of civilian vessels. This is not a complicated question, it's been illegal for centuries.

No surprises here. spacenews.com/nasa-safety-...

This is the Seinfeld no learning rule on steroids.

Trump had his accounts suspended on January 7, 8, and 9th 2020. WHEN HE WAS STILL PRESIDENT. It was not Joe Biden because Biden was not President.

Had a great two year run from 1973-75 with 24 shutouts and two cups with 6 more shutouts in the playoffs.

Guess the lesson here is take the winnings up front.

Pretty glad I never used TikTok.

To paraphrase Henry Hill, he didn't do the right thing and pay tribute to the boss.

Exodus 20:3.

All through K-12 and 3 degrees beyond, the only time I encountered communism was when I read Marx in History of Economic Thought...and it would have been malpractice not to have studied Marx in that course.

I would add, there is no such program at Harvard.

NASA GISS at the AMNH today talking about Eyes on Earth 👀🌎 for the museum’s Climate Day. Big Bang Theater (2nd floor, Hayden planetarium) from 10:30 to 3:30 (last show). Come say hi!

When I think about what is going on with my generation...the more and more I become convinced lead poisoning is still a factor (I wish I was joking but...)

Pretty decent of Paul Krugman to give Karen Attiah a platform - I doubt he could have done that at the Times. paulkrugman.substack.com/p/karen-attiah

I can recall when #1 was found, in 1995. www.nasa.gov/universe/exo...

Charlie Kirk said Joe Biden should be executed. When Democrats defend their vote for a resolution honoring this man, just remember that this is what they voted to honor.

Probably another fishing boat.

Thread...

Seems to me reducing labor supply would be inflationary.

All those years I went to Catholic school and they never taught me how Jesus would have been cool with death/rape threats sent to teachers.

Probably a management type who can't comprehend he isn't the boss everywhere.

I think this is going to come down to insurers refusing to pay for medical bills that were avoidable via vaccines.

As if. the mayor of NYC would have any impact on what's happening in the Middle East (Jacobs is perturbed about Mamdani's views on Israel).

Same reason scientists don't debate flat earthers.

Moisture from the remnants of Tropical Storm Mario move over California, leading to thunderstorms and heavy rainfall across the state.

Guess we'll learn how loyal Harlan Crow is to Trump.

Saying it privately ain't going to cut it.

Also, trans people (esp teenagers) are viewed as easy targets that others will be reluctant to stand up for. We'll have to demonstrate otherwise.

We should probably take this as confirmation the last strike was on a fishing vessel rather than drug smugglers.

I wonder if that gets factored into the CPI reports.

This article reminded me of my favorite depiction of the average Trump voter - the guy who owns three laundromats and thinks he's Bill Gates. Yeah, a lot of the local gentry types desire to live the Trump life.

Guys, it's not 1992 anymore.

Wait till these people hear about what goes on at Twitter.

Bertrand Russell, at 89 years old, to Sir Oswald Mosley, a man most famous for founding, in 1932, the British Union of Fascists. I'm all for civil discourse. But everyone can and should draw a line at who they will talk to. Notice that Russell did not demean himself with incivility, either.

Yeah, and the thing is I could see an 18 year being duped by the schtick...I feel really embarrassed for the people my age who fell for it.

It's hard to overstate just how off the charts warm the Pacific is right now. The swath of the basin from California to Japan (a HUGE area) from 25N to 60N is ~3F (1.6C) above normal. To put it into math terms that is 6 Sigma/ standard deviations above the mean. More… 1/

In which I do not compare them to Nazis...but make it very easy for you to do so, if you so chose. Me, I'm staying out of it.

It was a long shot to begin with...but if interstellar travel is ever accomplished, miniaturization is the key.

There is real wisdom here. For over a decade, liberals existed in a world in which their opponents have denied that they meant what they said. Now this is unraveling in a frenzy of speech and thought policing by governments who cannot bear to hear their own words spoken back to them.

I recall my first office job in 1981, there was a strict division on what type of jobs women worked - mostly secretarial (think Baily Quarters on WKRP). That meant women were overly reliant on their husbands for income and was not optimal. paulkrugman.substack.com/p/women-jobs...

I would recommend watching one of Robert Redford's lesser known efforts - All is Lost.

He loved him like a son — and I’m sure he would have skipped his own sons’ memorials as well. Those golf balls aren’t going to hit themselves.🙄
