One of the things that is going to change is that we’re never ever again going to be able to be dominated by public officials who tell us, ‘Trust the experts,’” Mr. Kennedy said during the Tuesday session.

“If somebody tells you, ‘Masks work, trust the experts,’ A.I. may tell you otherwise,” he added. “If somebody tells you, ‘Social distancing works, trust the experts,’ A.I. may correct that. And if somebody tells you that a vaccine will prevent transmission and infection, or you need to take it to protect your grandmother, A.I. may say it actually doesn’t do that.”

Really important update!
We hear you, Sunkist Fruit Gems fans!
The good news: Sunkist Fruit Gems are not going anywhere.
We've been working with a new trusted family owned candy maker to help us bring back the same great flavor, quality, kosher certification, and fruit-forward goodness you know and love.
While they're temporarily unavailable, we're aiming to have them back on shelves very soon.
Thank you for your patience and continued support.
We can't wait to share more updates soon!

DoorDash spent $1.4M trying to stop Zohran Mamdani from becoming mayor. This week's historic $131.5M enforcement action against DoorDash for underpaying NYC delivery workers shows why. Yet another reminder that the only thing that can beat organized money is organized people.

Forget grandiose talk of curing cancer - this is what AI is actually doing to healthcare. In the words of one cardiologist: “it’s bots fighting bots, agents fighting agents, a horrible dystopic future nobody wants to live in.”

I studied in Vietnam for 6 months in college and fell in love with dragonfruit. I would eat one every day for breakfast. They are usually quite flavorless here, but I got one as a special treat and… total and complete disappointment it was like eating nothing. 😭

BREAKING: In August, *every single one* of the 2,646 refugees admitted in the U.S. were white South Africans. In FY 2026, the U.S. has admitted a total of 12,901 white South Africans, three Afghans (back in November), and nobody else. For reference, the U.S. admitted 100,060 refugees in 2024.

I purchased this despondent duck lamp for my desk and was notified today that my “baby item” had arrived and I cannot get over the idea of someone using this in a baby’s room. Like “welcome to your depressing life little baby, it only gets worse from here.”

This my favourite comment re the recipe
This has been my go-to brownie recipe for 30 years, even after going to baking school! I agree that using the best cocoa possible makes a difference. These days, I use Callebaut. In the 80s, an acquaintence in Germany to whom I brought some of the brownies, and who considered herself a great cook, asked for the recipe but was never able to get it to work. She kept asking me what she was doing wrong and I was never able to solve her problem. Eventually, she moved to the US and stole my husband!

The idea that accessibility is a limited and non-renewable resource consistently keeps people from imagining a better world where we've designed things so everyone can actually get what they need and be comfortable. It also keeps people from demanding changes for the better from those with power.

In June I asked El-Sayed about Rs potentially using his whole name (or the fact that his brother is named Osama) against him. 

His answer:

“I hope that they will. Yeah, my name is Abdul. I’ll say the whole thing: Abdulrahman Muhammad El-Sayed, and I want you to have health care, because you know what? Chances are, you probably had a doctor you trust with a name like mine.”

"don't make enough money" is a fig leaf All those degree programs--social work, art, etc.--have disproportionately female student bodies. This is designed to make it harder for women to attend college--college education being a key factor in women's autonomy from men & left-leaning voting pattern.
