A day or so after 9/11, I was driving across Iowa, a load of Kansas beef in the trailer behind me. As I often did, I called my father to get his thoughts. I mentioned how all the talk was whether we were brave and strong enough to fight it, but I wanted to know if we were... 1/2

Expect to see more of the MAGA foreign relations two-step: 1. "Trump has made the US respected." "Actually, evidence shows the world's opinion of us is worse." 2. "WHO CARES WHAT THEY THINK?"

🌍 The U.N. voted 164-1 to encourage a shift away from the Mercator map toward the Equal Earth projection, which better reflects countries’ true size. 🇺🇸 The U.S. was the only country to vote against it, calling the measure an “ideological agenda.”

On fb, I posted a memory about inflation during the Carter administration, and folks who dubbed the proposed dollar coin the "JC Penny." I was struggling for a term for Trump's dollar coin. A friend suggested "Trumpernickel."

There’s a thread on my local Nextdoor right now called “Does Anyone Else Have a Chest Cough” and the comments are full of people saying “me too! Don’t know what it is, can’t be covid” No, of course not, because you got a vaccine that protects against Covid for six months five years ago!

I work at Griffith Observatory, and I like to tell people about exoplanets, while railing against breathless talk about "Earth 2.0." I point out that most exoplanets touted as Earth 2.0 could be just as accurately called Venus 2.0, given what we don't know about them.

I don't know what anybody is going on about, seeing the ODYSSEY so fascinatingly represented on the big screen was really amazing -- from the Sirens to the suitors to John Goodman as the Cyclops, and I just can't get enough of "I Am A Man of Constant Sorrow." The Coen Brothers never miss, tbh

Can we please stop doing the thing of comparing Andrew Tate to a woman? It manages to be a combination of homophobic, transphobic, and misogynistic all in one. The guy is an alleged rapist, abuser, and human trafficker. Saying "he looks/dresses like a woman" is not a good response.

It’s worth noting that Taco Bell identified the source before the FDA did, and promptly pulled it from their stores. The FDA didn’t even name the source until Taylor Farms outed themselves, and hasn’t issued a recall. Basically, Taco Bell is now a more reliable authority than the FDA.
