there is absolutely nothing of value that would be lost by banning every single fraternity and sorority from every single college campus. it would drastically improve society within a single generation in fact.

I actually don't think the Republican Senator mixed up "Hawks" and "Hawkeyes." Going by his own statements, it appears his staff saw he went to a basketball game on that date and googled basketball games and found the only men's game that night in the whole country was in Atlanta.

Murder is also the #1 cause of death of pregnant and postpartum women. Related: Denying people access to abortion care forces them to remain trapped in abusive relationships they often would otherwise leave. (among other harms)

The fact that both Democrats and Republicans are racing to the 10 side of a 90-10 issue really tells you a lot about the state of our democracy (it's a corporatocracy), and how both parties view democracy in general (as a nuisance).

There are already articles circulating trying to rewrite history and say America was great after 9/11 and united and thoughtful and just a reminder that that period was marked by intense and insanely racist hatred, paranoia, and a frothing desire for unhinged violence and oppression.

All of this is separate from the SOCIAL CONSTRUCTION of race. Given that DNA ancestry services are less than 15 years old, our attitudes are not based on *genetic data*. But that fact again: There are no unshared, population-level genetic variations in humans. I'll leave you with Adam's essay:

Someone ancestrally from Africa will have MORE ancestors contributing (probabilistically) to each DNA base inherited, but beyond ~10,000 years ago (the identical ancestors point), every human was either the ancestor of everyone alive, or left no surviving descendants. You & I (& Elon🙄) are cousins.

The neighborhood hooligans surprised me tonight. I didn’t see them until I was right next to them! 15 ft away! Two in a group of eight.

Couple of deer in the clearing for power lines. The closest is within 15 feet, looking directly at me, and has a rack of antlers.

A friend found this clipping in some old files. Haven't seen this before. Mind blown.

Color political cartoon by Danny Hellman from the New York Press dated October 6-12, 1999. In it, Donald Trump and his then wife Marla Maples being shown a model of the White House with many added stories and a shiny gold T on the top, with Taj Mahal towers on the side and flags flying with a T. It is labeled "Proposed White House Renovation." A ghoulish Philip Johnson says, "Granted, It's in violation of several of Washington D.C.'s landmark and zoning codes. But of course as president of the United States..." Trump, licking his lips, says, "It's tremendous, Philip, when do I move in?" The caption beneath is Spectacularly unqualified egomaniac Donald Trump contemplates a White House run"

Yikes. Women accounted for all of the job losses and all of the labor force decline in July, according to @nwlc.org

WASHINGTON — Women accounted for 100 percent of the decline in the labor force in July, according to a National Women’s Law Center jobs analysis of monthly data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. That brings the total net number of women who have left the labor force since January this year to 845,000. In comparison, there are 406,000 fewer men in the labor force now than in January.

A total of 165,000 women, aged 20 and over, left the labor force last month — meaning they are neither working nor looking for work — while men's labor force participation was unchanged. Overall, the economy lost 23,000 jobs in July. Women accounted for all of these losses, losing 32,000 jobs, while men gained 9,000 jobs. Women make up 50.1% of the workforce.

"Unlike many others forced to halt their research [due to Trump cuts], Sehgal and his co-authors released their study anyway...with a fraction of the intended sample size. Still, removing the gas stoves relieved the participants’ asthma so much that the results were clear even with only 85 of them."

The EPA halted a study on gas stoves and asthma. But even partial results were striking.

Research that used a federal grant to pay for asthma patients to have their gas stoves replaced showed a dramatic fall in asthma attacks. The program was cut short after President Donald Trump took of...
