I genuinely hate the push to make smoking a thing again. I have watched so many drawn out, ugly, painful deaths from smoking. It makes everything disgusting. It enslaves us to the worst kinds of corporations. There’s ZERO positive here.

Nate Cavanaugh has gone viral recently for his taped deposition about DOGE eliminating "DEI" grants. He's also a key figure in our story from last year. We found that he helped expose a sensitive Afghanistan program, leading to a brutal Taliban crackdown.

DOGE Targeted Him on Social Media. Then the Taliban Took His Family.

Afghan scholar Mohammad Halimi, who fled the Taliban in 2021, had worked to help U.S. diplomats understand his homeland. Then DOGE put his family’s lives at risk by exposing his sensitive work for a U...

Kermit Roosevelt is a good search topic if you want to understand how we got here.

I’m a boring follow. I’m here to observe and occasionally chime in. Don’t take it personally when I don’t follow back.

Perhaps letting men whose fathers didn’t love them define real masculinity might not turn out well for society.

I accept this moment of joy knowing the Blue Jays have ushered the Yankees out of the postseason.

if you simply do not like the vibe on this website, that's fine. i'm not a big fan of the "open cesspool of neo-nazis" vibe on X: The Everything App. but this ideologically-driven desire to present every person who uses this app as hysterical and unreasonable is kind of pathetic

THREAD: We recently heard that the Trump administration was leaning on the government of Gambia to help Elon Musk. For weeks, our team made phone calls, wrote letters and knocked on folks’ doors to try to confirm it. But we were stuck. So our reporters got on a plane to Banjul. 1/

I'm a believer in smart policy, but all the finger-pointing in the LA firestorm about hydrant flows and LAFD budgets seems like arguing about the adequacy of Hiroshima's 1945 building code standards. It's a way to evade the big questions.

Billionaires and the political party that advocates for them have branded consumer protection as wasteful big government spending. Fraud will get much more prevalent and consequential in the coming years.

Every December, for the past 17 years, I've been fortunate enough to put together collections of amazing images of outer space for a Space Telescope Advent Calendar. I just posted Day 1 of this year's edition, & will also share this year's images here on Bluesky. www.theatlantic.com/photo/2024/1...

Day 1: A grand spiral. The spiral galaxy NGC 5248, located 42 million light-years from Earth, is one of the so-called grand-design spirals, with prominent spiral arms that reach from near the core out through the disc. It also has a faint bar structure in the center, which is difficult to see in this visible-light portrait from the Hubble space telescope. Features like these, which break the rotational symmetry of a galaxy, can feed gas from a galaxy’s outer reaches to inner star-forming regions, and even to a galaxy’s central black hole.

It’s me, @mariabamford.bsky.social I’ve just left Twitter. I’m a comedian and had used Twitter to connect with fans and other comedians. I’m not sure how to let people know I’m here. Ha-ha.

Trump has hacked the media by lying so relentlessly and egregiously that whoppers that could be career-ending for other politicians don’t even rouse our fact-checkers. He claims American towns are occupied by migrants in every one of his speeches and it elicits yawns. We need to wake the fuck up.
