Americans are relearning the lesson we learned during the Gilded Age of the late 1890s, when robber barons ran the government and the economy for their own benefit: Oligarchy is incompatible with the common good. I'm hopeful we'll respond with a new progressive movement.

This story is great but man I am laughing at how much this guy looks like Michael McDonald - did any other genes even make it in? If you told me that he’d been the result of asexual reproduction by Michael McDonald I’d believe you
A guy who looks basically 1:1 like Michael McDonald who recently found out Michael McDonald is his biological father

The Kennedy Center is not at risk of falling down. It doesn’t need to be rehabbed. Trumb is lying….🤥 He’s using these lies to get his way. My guess is he wants to steal the valuable gifts-the marble, tapestries, lights, etc. and destroy another memorial so when he’s gone, so is our history.

More than anything, I’m profoundly disappointed. This whole situation is just so disgraceful.
Your daily reminder that Usha Vance sits on the Kennedy
Center board that voted to close and destroy the venue. She's every bit as vile as Trump and the turd she married. She's NOT a victim. She's an accomplice.

You can submit a comment here by tomorrow/Friday: forms.cloud.microsoft/Pages/Respon... Info on the reorganization: www.niaid.nih.gov/about/niaid-... Comment template from SolveME:
I'm writing as [a person with ME/CFS / a Long Covid patient / a caregiver / a supporter] to ask NIAID to slow down this proposed reorganization of the Division of Clinical Research. Consolidated clinical research infrastructure is what turns discoveries into treatments patients can actually access, and millions of us living with [ME/CFS / Long Covid] are counting on the clinical trials NIAID supports, including the Long Covid treatment trials now underway. Please extend the public comment period so the public can review the full plan, and please protect the coordinated clinical research oversight this division provides. [One line in your own words — who you are, and what waiting for treatment has meant for you or your family.] Thank you.

how about some good news: new cat just dropped!!!!
a photo of a small, spotted wild cat, with orange fur and brown circular markings, staring up with big golden eyes.Meet the First New Cat Species Discovered in 100 Years

A small, spotted tiger cat from Bolivia may just be the beginning of a wave of new small cat species.

This 10-year-old male tiger cat is the first of his species (named Leopardus tilcayo) known to science. He is approximately 18 inches from head to end of body and weighs only 3 pounds, making him smaller than the average domestic cat. This video was captured at the Senda Verde Animal Refuge in Bolivia’s Yungas region, where he currently resides.

For real though. So many people are just showing how they view disability as a spectacle to be fascinated by rather than something people have to live with.
