“Many attendees at NatCon view Israel not just as an ally but as an embodiment of the exclusionary ethnostate they wish to establish. National Conservatism sees in Israel a blueprint for the realization of a white, Christian nation built on racialized exclusion…”

Found the email I sent when I got accidentally added to the faculty listserv of an orthopedic surgery clinic and nobody would remove me so I sent this email to all faculty/staff/med students and they removed me almost immediately
Hello Bone Colleagues, 
I have invented a new type of ankle and I'm very excited to show it to you. Early raccoon trials suggest a 60% increase in scurrying speed and dramatic increases in fine motor banditry. I know we are not supposed to create super raccoons, but I think you'll change your mind and professional ethics when you see how cute they are. I believe we are on the cusp of a new era in advanced human scurrying because if medical science has taught me anything, it's that improvements in raccoons correspond 1:1 to improvements in humans.

That they can’t let the reformers get any visibility into what they’ve been doing financially (crimes, we think). Total desperation

Yeah. We joke for the sake of our sanity but having been in 13 hour zooms and waited for hours on the Coney Island boardwalk for a partial joke of a meeting while they lie to our faces so they can keep presumably stealing money and ignoring fascism, it is totally enraging

We expect the former chair to soon claim that a new chair has been elected. This will be false, and this late-night zoom call masquerading as a BK Dems exec committee meeting, like every prior step of the former chair’s attempt to cling to power, was an affront to the democratic values of our party

I work with abortion providers in Colorado. One of them had a patient whose water broke at 4 1/2 months, was told by a Houston hospital they couldn't help her until she went into labor or went septic, so *she got on a plane & flew to Denver mid-miscarriage*. There's no respectful disagreement here.

For those not following NJ politics, please know that the Lt Gov resigned a few days ago because a report came out saying he did serial harassment, and yesterday he went on TV to say "i put that report through multiple AIs and they told me it wasn't sexual harassment." Former university president

An important lesson from the Iraq War, relevant to Annie Jacobsen and other biosecurity fabulists, is that there is a very dangerous species of columnist who can only become vindicated if they create the precise international incident they’ve prophesied. Just as undesirable for nukes and bioweapons.

Once she, Frank and their allies are out of power we should be able to start finding out details of what they’ve been doing with the party’s money, which is presumably way worse than what Frank is already in a lot of legal trouble for. There has been no visibility into party finances

Lucien Lazare, Jewish fighter in the French Resistance, has died at 101. After fighting the Nazis, he was rejected by his synagogue later in life for translating an article saying “Israel, today, is nothing but a formless mass of corruption, oppression and injustice.” www.nytimes.com/2026/10/01/w...

He and a small troop of French Jews worked with the Allies to distribute supplies and fight the Nazis, ambushing a German train and liberating a city in the south.

Their political movement is about absolving white men for whatever they do. Hard to imagine someone in this situation resisting the temptation of that.

It’ll be much easier for the people involved to tell themselves a story to make themselves feel better than continue working through the reality of what they did, as with antivax parents who kill their children. And that’s what people usually do, as the assholes surrounding this guy already are

Yeah these are the most willfully propagandized, selfish, self-absorbed, dishonest people there are and I’m not sure why at this point we would take their so far momentary pangs of conscience from a direct exposure to trauma seriously.
