Imagine a young, vibrant woman runs for office using the slogan MAMA: Make America Matter Again. She uses white as her campaign color, and looks stunning wearing anything white from ball hats to ball gowns. She focuses on making every person matter but also restoring international trust. Hot MAMA.

The discourse around the song that “no-one“ or “everyone” knows feels like it shouldn't be surprising given how literally all information, politics, etc., work these days. We get inundated with repeats of everything until it's hard to remember that even others in our household might not even know it

This is great and easy if you have chickpeas; cook them ahead of time instead of using canned chickpeas. I made it earlier this week. I quadruple this recipe so we have leftovers.

Health Trackers Are Everywhere. Do Babies Need Them, Too?

Parents are increasingly willing to embrace tracking and analytics for their children — part of a broader cultural obsession with health data and optimization.

I have a friend who is a therapist. They started an independent practice because their former company was so restrictive about what who and how they could help that they felt useless. Now they know that if they want to accept the prevalent insurances, they have to restrict themself to the same.

"Then why don't you try to get it changed?" We do but drivers fight it. "Then why don't you try to change their minds?" That's literally why we're having this conversation. "You might have more success if you were nicer about it." You perceive us as rude regardless because you don't want to hear it.

And I don't want to hear any "well, we have to get a majority to do anything" arguments either. When your "majority" is comprised of a bunch of transphobic assholes, guess what's going to happen? You can say "wait until we're in power" all you want, but I've seen how that works out.

It’s not great!

Pandemic learning losses accelerated the drop, but education experts say the roots of the problem run much deeper: chronic teacher shortages, repeated curriculum reforms that have neglected basic skills and widening inequalities within increasingly segregated systems.

Compounding it all, incessant smartphone use has dramatically reduced attention spans, replacing "deep reading" with scrolling, and pupil motivation has collapsed.

my review of the mrbeast book (which i haven't read, but i will be nice to it) - the page numbering is very accurate - it is printed on paper that, by using black ink on white pages, employs contrast for legibility - the cover allows you to easily discern which book it is without opening it
