We are being governed by morons.

Honestly starting to wonder if this guy is too good for us.

Has anyone checked on @kevinmkruse.bsky.social ?

The DUNC... I mean DUNE Font Generator is live now! Showcase your hype for Dune Part Three with custom graphics that faithfully recreate the Dune logo style.

Here they obsess over the hockey stick (h/t @ziyatong.bsky.social). (1) The cited critique is McShane & WYNER (2) It's been thoroughly refuted: www.realclimate.org/index.php/ar... (3) It doesn't even purport to address the independent confirmation & extension of the "hockey stick" in IPCC AR6

thinking about the hero of this game for Team Venezuela, Eugenio Suárez, and his comments about ICE’s effect on Latino baseball players just last week

Have these people not seen any of the Terminator movies?

I’d prefer to imagine a Stephen Miller with a soul, but I just can’t seem to be able to, for whatever reason.

How’s this working out for you, Kruse?

There is no universe where this kind of thing from a sitting US Senator, or anyone really, is remotely acceptable.

Yes, I recognize the phenotype here for sure.

People like Karp, and I use “people” here generously as I’m not convinced he’s actually human, are absolute ghouls.

Michael Stipe showed up in NYC tonight for the Michael Shannon/Jason Narducy show and sang @remhq.bsky.social "These Days" (!!!!) and "The Great Beyond." 😭 😍https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_RiouUSsOIs

Iran’s people were facing a horrible shortage of water before the war began. If we are destroying desalination plants and setting fire to Teheran we are committing unfathomable crimes.

Last year, this guy (left) from DOGE used ChatGPT to find NEH grants that were too “DEI” for Trump, and canceled them, including mine, as shown by the letter I received last April (right). Huge new NYT article on the back story link below

This has to be one of the most adorable things I’ve seen on social media in a while.

As the U.S. doubles down on glyphosate, a widely cited study asserting its safety has been retracted after it was discovered the paper was ghostwritten by Monsanto employees. This incident, and ghostwriting in general, harms scientific integrity, writes Naomi Oreskes. https://scim.ag/4rIIu4a

Not sure I want the people who’ve yet to leave Twitter/X to move over to BlueSky.

A growing body of research shows that getting outside is good for mood and memory — and some therapists are bringing their practices outdoors to boost the benefits. https://wapo.st/3ZJNgly

I got about halfway through this before realizing it’s just another example of why I’m not on Facebook.

A lot of people, including me, were wondering how an IRB could ever approve this study. The answer is that no IRB did. The person who “signed off” on approval from the only ethics board that reviewed it had resigned three years earlier. His signature was used without his knowledge.

This is about the latest revelation from the Epstein files, which seems to have left most of the political class stunned and paralyzed. But it’s also about how things become politically meaningful and the forces that shape public perception of events. www.offmessage.net/p/trump-epst...

Probably one of the best things I've seen in a while. Equal parts touching and funny at times.

The RFK number seems like a massive failure of the media to explain what RFK is doing to our public health system and how catastrophic it will be

A touching, beautiful story filled with reflections. Worth your time.

Absolutely maddening

I loved the Bad Bunny halftime show. Today as I read more about it, I am truly blown away. Incredible how much thought went into every detail.

You’ve seen the halftime show … now read my friend Petra’s new book from @dukepress.bsky.social about how Bad Bunny became the global voice of Puerto Rican resistance! 👏🏽👏🏽 www.dukeupress.edu/p-fkn-r

SHOW ME THE BUNNY!!!

When mom and dad force you do do an extra-curricular activity but that activity is fascism.

So much for the whole “don’t be evil” ethos, eh?

Disgusting
