Read my full story here! Psychedelics and immortality: Nature went to a health summit starring RFK and JD Vance www.nature.com/articles/d41...

About that exclusive, "closed-to-press" MAHA summit last week with RFK and JD Vance: I got in. Here's what I saw. 🧵 🧪 www.nature.com/articles/d41...

I had a blast yesterday watching “Siskel & Ebert at 50: A Live Performance” in Chicago. Zack Mast (Ebert) and Stephen Winchell (Siskel) were uncannily good as the two critics and it was a really cool and affectionate way to look back at their early years and legacy.

BLACK NARCISSUS (1947) — 2:00 pm ET — 1h 39m Deborah Kerr, Sabu Dastagir, David Farrar; directed by Michael Powell, Emeric Pressburger Nuns founding a convent in the Himalayas are tormented by the area's exotic beauty. #TCM #TCMParty

All these years later, I do still miss a weekly half hour of watching these two bantering about the movies.

A noir-vember essential from Alexander Mackendrick, “Sweet Smell of Success” was a flop upon its initial release in 1957 — but its weathered, weary cynicism has aged like a fine wine.

X rolled out a new feature overnight showing where accounts are based. This network of “Trump-supporting independent women” that claimed to be “real Americans” are based in Thailand. The photos were stolen from European models & posts pushed pro-Trump lines while targeting Islam and LGBTQ people.

Some vaccines like COVID and flu don’t stop completely stop infection. But they do reduce the risk of getting infected and greatly reduce severe illness risk. They are still worth getting. Since they are not 100% effective it’s also wise to add another layer of protection by wearing a mask.

Digging into the data of what's taking place with Black women unemployment and this graph is pretty damning. You can see the EXACT month Black women's unemployment begins to splinter and that what hit us FIRST is now coming for all other women. This is #TheDoubleTax. #blacksky #news #econsky

Flu "Variant K" appears to be expanding rapidly in the US as noted in BIOFIRE data. Confidence is increasing that this will be a bad flu season.

You know what pairs well with solidarity? SNACKS! Thanks to all the allies who are keeping us fed on the picket line. Our spirits are high, and we're ready to keep escalating until we win a fair union contract & an end to union busting!

Twitter pays people based on engagement (views, retweets, comments, etc). It appears that many MAGA accounts are based abroad and they use AI technology to generate low-effort rage bait. My guess is that this will get worse as AI tech improves. For instance, fake videos of minorities doing crime.

Since February, according to my latest analysis, almost 600,000 Black women have been economically sidelined. The November 20, 2025, Jobs Report makes clear this isn’t a blip. It’s a structural crisis. That is not a recovery. It is a redistribution of opportunity.

As a historian, I have been torturing myself by watching some of the series that the White House in cooperation with Hillsdale College produced about American Independence (tellingly, they avoid the word "revolution"). There are so many errors that it is hard to know where to begin. But I'll try

Like vaccines denialists, I feel being able to say "birth is totally safe" with a straight face can only be the result of a generation that both 1) Has no living relatives that remember when that was not the case, and 2) Does not own a library card/history book.
