Seriously props to the congressionals who are going over the Epstein files. That’s tough stuff. I’m a therapist because I have a strong stomach in the way that surgeons do when they’re slicing through arteries. They probably didn’t sign up for it but I’m glad they’re willing.

Of VC-backed products, 78% fail: 42% fail because nobody wants them. 17% because they don't really solve the problem they claim to solve. 19% because they were no different from competing products or couldn't evolve with the market. And that's just VC-backed companies. 1/2

Snuck up to Gibraltar Rock above Santa Barbara tonight for the light show at sunset. Almost didn't got but then I remembered it might be my last chance to see it for five days or so. #Photography #Sunset #SantaBarbara

if someone was to say "where is the left complicated re: US history," I would say that u can look at a lot of debates over, for example, (1) the validity of the constitution as a document, debated even by abolitionists; (2) utility and form of labor unions as opposed to cooperativism from the 1820s;

Happy #caturday 💝

“I’ve never protested before - but I just watched 4th & 5th grade kids run away from our own government.” 😕🇺🇸💔 (From @crindivisible.bsky.social )

Since we have the right to a well regulated militia, can we have our own jails and arrest traitors to the Constitution (allegedly)?

Raskin: What makes somebody a good lawyer? You have to identify with the people who are the victims of injustice — not with their perpetrators. So I would say to Pam Bondi: If you’re going to stand with the victimizers and not the victims, then you’re not a real lawyer.
