⌨️ @skedeschi - The breathtaking gaslighting of the Greens racist motion is its claim that eradicating Israel will create a big, equal rights democracy . The British Mandate was divided up, and the ONLY group that chose equal rights or democracy was Israel. Self-determination in practice.
Infographic titled "Civil Freedoms and Minority Rights: Israel vs Jordan, West Bank and Gaza," comparing key rights and freedoms across four regions. The graphic uses icons and checkmarks to indicate the status of various rights. Text within the image includes: "Civil Freedoms and Minority Rights: Israel vs Jordan, West Bank and Gaza Comparison of key rights and freedoms (excluding Israeli settlements) ISRAEL Democratic state JORDAN Monarchy (parliamentary) WEST BANK (PA) Palestinian Authority GAZA (HAMAS) Hamas rule CIVIL AND POLITICAL RIGHTS Democracy / elections Regular, competitive elections Elected parliament, king retains dominant power No election since 2006 (mandate expired) No election since 2006 (Hamas authoritarian rule) Free press Broadly free media (some security restrictions) Heavily restricted (criticism can lead to prosecution) Significant PA restrictions Hamas represses journalists (arrests, intimidation, violence) Freedom of assembly Generally protected Restricted (protests can be dispersed) Restricted by PA and Israeli authorities Severely restricted Criticise government Generally protected Can lead to prosecution PA arrests/harassment Serious risk under Hamas Freedom of religion Broad (all major religions) Islam state religion (conversion restricted) Islam official religion (minorities allowed with limits) Strong Islamic legal/social constraints Women's rights Equal rights under law (can hold all offices) Significant legal inequalities Formal rights; substantial inequality in practice Severely constrained in practice LGBTQ rights Same-sex relations legal; anti-discrimination laws; open LGBT organisations No anti-discrimination laws; LGBT organising restricted No specific protections; very difficult/risky Same-sex activity criminalised; no protections; open LGBT life impossible Independent judiciary Independent (under pressure in recent years) Limited independence Not fully independent (under PA control) Controlled by Hamas Civil society / NGOs Ex…

Weird that the people who run college football looked at what MLB has done to its ratings over the last few decades and decided that’s what they wanted

it’s this weird thing where she keeps referring to “lived experience” and, as often get brought up in various vibesession debates, what are economic data but accumulations of lived experience? (not to mention that under biden, ppl *self-reported* doing well, but often believed *others* were not)

If we could figure out some quality or feature that was common to all the states where this happened or, conversely, common to all the states where this did not happen, that might help suggest a strategy to correct and/or prevent this

I really love this chart. I'm guess that the correlation here (.85) is about as big as you would find for any other variable. Also, a less serious scholar than @tesler.bsky.social (namely me) would have made a crude Freudian reference to the slope of the line.
Chart shows a close positive relationship between Trump's 2024 vote and Google searches for testosterone boosters.

There’s this sort of odd and objectively incorrect background assumption that the corporate form is natural and inviolable and it just isn’t, a corporation is the state magnanimously allowing you to make up a fake person for business reasons, there is no legal or philosophical reason for CEO-Kings

The Facial Expressions of Tethys by artist Julius von Bismarck. A suspended high-sea buoy that moves in real time. Sensors on a twin buoy out in the Atlantic Ocean send live satellite data to motors inside the museum. This makes the indoor buoy copy the exact, real-time movements of the ocean waves.

If you depend heavily on checks from the government, what is an acceptable level of risk that the person you’re voting for will significantly reduce or end those checks, or be more likely to do that than the person you’re voting against? My answer would be “very very low,” but rurals gonna rural

Always remember this one from the archives.
A Nate Silver Tweet from 4 Feb 2021 (referencing the Johnson and Johnson covid vaccine): "Why should this take three weeks though? Is the data intrinsically that complicated? Is there any doubt that J&J will be approved?" 
@forgethewings replies: "Hi Nate - if it helps think about how unimportant your work is and how you still manage to get it wrong, and then imagine it was important work and you had to get it right"

I was warned that if I didn’t vote for Trump against a woman, the next president would spend massive amounts of time on White House design projects to the exclusion of actual presidential duties. Sure enough, I didn’t vote for Trump, and the president is consumed with White House design projects

Screenshotted excerpt from a conversation transcript, reading as follows

Cottle: My guess is that you then completely reject the idea that we wound up with this wretched administration in part because of the backlash to the excesses of woke, especially alienating young men, who were told they were the problem, just generally speaking.

Bouie: [this line is highlighted] I completely reject that for simple reasons of linear time. This administration was elected in 2024. At peak woke, when Nancy Pelosi was wearing kente cloth, Democrats won a trifecta, right? At the--
