Springfield, OH hate crime. Haitian father shot driving his kids to church. "They said he was going to give someone a ride and 'they just shot him. I don’t know why.'" Consequences of hate from our gov't. www.springfieldnewssun.com/local/crime/... @gregsargent.bsky.social @jimswift.bsky.social

Thank God it's over. Both teams deserved to lose.

This game is torture SUI x COL 🥱🥱🥱

This is plain day thievery. I'm disgusted

Luv 2 foul Salah directly in the box and experience no consequences

Oh noooooooo that VAR call looking worse and worse

Blatant favoritism in FIFA refereeing 🤮🤮🤮

This corrupt ass organization and their shit refs

DMLSER is 2 years old this week! 🎉 Did it make me rich? No. Did it bring me fame? No. But it did fill a fill a gap that had existed for far too long. It makes me proud to see how it's made a real difference — not just in people's work, but in the outcomes of that work. datamgmtinedresearch.com

If Americans want to destroy their country on its 250th anniversary, that's their prerogative. But can't they leave football ⚽ alone? You have plenty of sports, what's the need to bring further corruption into such a troubled sport...

𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐲𝐩𝐥𝐨𝐭 v0.7.0 now available on CRAN 🎉 This is big release, with loads of new features. Same tiny footprint, though ;-) Short highlight thread below, borrowing examples from our gallery: grantmcdermott.com/tinyplot/vig...

🚨🚨 NEW ECONOMICS JOURNAL 🚨🚨 We are excited to announce the launch of The Review of Economic Studies: Insights, a new open-access journal in the REStud family. Mission: publish concise, high-quality research on important questions across economics and economic policy.🧵1/13

I still cannot wrap my head around the fact that less than 2 years ago Americans voted overwhelmingly to put these sociopaths in power. What a way to commit societal suicide 🙍🏻‍♂️

FIFA has prohibited Haitian World Cup jerseys with a depiction of the Nov. 18, 1803, Bataille de Vertières aka the triumph of the Haitian Revolution against slavery. Depraved. amp.miamiherald.com/news/nation-...

Some corporate finance papers from the 70s seem like taken out of a Mad Men script 🤢

No sugar-coating the Court’s decision today. Real talk. @allinwithchris.bsky.social

i was told by john roberts and sam alito that racism is over so i won't worry about white republicans in the south jumping over themselves to end black political representation wherever they can

Elections like yesterday reinforce my belief that researching the political and economic conditions under which democratic mobilization is unleashed (in the world of energy and climate, and beyond) are crucial to the current moment, and do not need to be only depressing

MAGA is a cult... Evidence #2591

I find amazing the deafening silence from US universities on Trump's explicit threats to commit war crimes. It is astounding how he has managed to silence them/us. Is this what we agreed to when we bought into institutional neutrality?

9 months in and RDM Weekly has hit 700 subscribers! 🎉 I would love to hit 1,000 by July for the 1 year anniversary. rdmweekly.substack.com

After Trump's latest genocidal utterances, I'm posting this again from Anaïs Nin’s diary from 1939-1944: “America is in even greater danger because of its cult of toughness, its hatred of sensitivity, and someday it may have to pay a price for this, because atrophy of feeling creates criminals”.

My disdain for the people who have the power to stop the lunatic-in-charge but don’t knows no bounds. *They* don’t have the excuse of being dementia-ridden whack jobs with one foot in the grave.

I'm not sure how you can be against removing this man from office right now. What will it take? A nuke being dropped? It's too late then. The purpose of impeachment and the 25th Amendment is to prevent that type of thing from happening, not just to react to it.

Do you know how EXTREMELY FUCKED UP SHIT HAS TO BE for me to be reposting Tucker Carlson positively???

NYT website describes it merely as an "expletive laden" post as if it is normal. Leaves out all of the swear words and crazy parts. In other words...NYT is lying to readers and covering up for the madman. If Biden posted such a thing, NYT would be demanding he step down immediately

This is an actual post. This is not funny. This is beyond desperate. This is a deeply unwell man who doesn’t belong anywhere near the levers of power. Every member of his cabinet and Congress is complicit in not demanding his removal now.

This movement has never been about violent criminal aliens, undocumented immigrants writ large, or even immigration in general, but about the country’s changing ethnic and religious makeup. It has always been about white Christian nationalism.

I mean I just can't even find words. The US defense secretary helping plan a massive, destabilizing surprise war - a war the US has immediately LOST - and then using his insider knowledge to make stock bets so he can personally get rich? Hard to think of worse corruption, anywhere, ever.

In what world is it okay for the Defense Secretary to make multi-million dollar investments in defense companies: a) Ever; b) In the run-up to starting a war in the Middle East FT has the scoop: www.ft.com/content/744e... In a functional democracy, he would offer his resignation tonight.

The call is coming from inside the house.

Phang: This is so typical of what has happened in this administration. Michael Flynn sued and is now going to be given $1.5 million in a settlement. Ashli Babbitt’s family is receiving $5 million. The Trumps are suing for $10 billion. Just a snapshot of the type of bullshit that is happening

The Department of This Operation.

She was driving her suitcase straight toward me. My life passed before my eyes.

NEW: This new report, from BBC, is the best takedown of the insanity of Trump you will see anywhere. Calm, coherent and repeating only Trump’s own words. Devastating. Brilliant work once again from Roz Atkins. (🎥 BBC News)

"Trump will eventually throw you under the bus" should be considered by now a Law of Nature 😆

The NYT piece on Chavez was a very tough pill to swallow. The reaction of some commenters from the left was truly disheartening. So much callousness.

Late-stage malignant narcissism is very, very dangerous, especially when combined with the disinhibiting effects of dementia. Trump will only become more out of control and lash out both more often and more severely as time passes.

This is just going to continue escalating and getting worse. Trump's reaction to being cornered by events he cannot dismiss or control or make someone else's problem is to lash out with increasing violence. Remember, his reax to COVID was first to attempt to kill protesters, then the US Congress.

When a federal judge (finally) put ICE officers under oath, they admitted that they are given daily detention quotas and rely heavily on a Palantir-supplied AI tool to select targets, without warrants and without enough evidence to obtain one. They simply go into neighborhoods and round people up.

There's also this working paper on the impact of LLMs on labor market signaling: arxiv.org/abs/2511.08785

The Defense Minister of Israel says it was "blood libel" to go after Israeli soldiers caught on camera raping a Palestinian.

This interview with the great @rebeccasolnit.bsky.social was a "wow" moment for me. Thanks, New York Times and David Marchese. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/07/m... I couldn't help noticing the question that seemed the most Times-like to me.

The FIFA Peace Prize 🏆 for you Ladies and Gentlemen...
