"When the most powerful man in the country is a sexual predator who mainlines misogyny, he gives a blaring, glaring greenlight to men everywhere that they can treat us like shit and face no accountability. I call it Trickle-Down Misogyny". - Mona Eltahawy @monaeltahawy.bsky.social

You don’t gut the country's capacity to measure what's happening in its schools because you care about improving them. Guardian article below.

Okay so I pitched a cultural piece about the resurgence of gothic incest in pop culture and the attending politics of white power and eugenics. Admittedly, it was too niche. Anyway Musk’s dad apparently has two kids with his stepdaughter and I’m sure it’s all unrelated.

I asked AT&T Stadium about the Rolling Stone report about how they objected to Macklemore coming to Arlington next month. They didn't comment, but as I've noted they're still hosting Kanye West in November: www.chron.com/culture/arti...

AT&T Stadium, which will host Ye this fall, objected to Macklemore
The Seattle rapper was dropped from Ed Sheeran's stadium tour bill.

You’ve gotta use AI because it’s the future. But also it’ll take your job. But also it’ll create a paradise on earth and solve most of our problems. But also it’ll end humanity soon. But also you’ll get left behind if you don’t use it right now.

This is why I twitch when I read “future historians will…." we don’t know that they will, when we are writing words sent to something we call “the cloud” and yet expect them to live forever.

It's like a parody, but it's deadly serious; the Commerce Department (which includes Census, NOAA, and others) has outright deleted "don't alter or suppress scientific findings for political reasons" from its scientific integrity rules. Seriously.
Protecting against "inappropriate influence" is no longer a "hallmark" of scientific integrity

The Commerce Department updated its policy for promoting a "culture of scientific integrity" in January 2025, days before Trump's second inauguration.

A new Trump administration order bans the Census Bureau and the Bureau of Economic Analysis from using statistical “noise,” or data for fuzzing survey results, to protect people’s privacy in their statistics.

The 2025 version included bans on attempts to shape or interfere in data collection, statistical analysis and other scientific activities "against well-accepted scientific methods and theories or without scientific justification."

The department's policy, the 2025 version said, involves ensuring scientific findings at its agencies "are not suppressed, delayed, or altered for political purposes and are not subjected to inappropriate influence," as well as making sure there's "independent review of facilities, methodologies, and other scientific activities as appropriate to ensure scientific integrity."

That language is missing, however, in the Trump administration's revision of the policy, according to an NPR analysis of text posted on the Commerce Department's website.

And while the revision adopts a definition for "scientific integrity" that is similar to the previous version, it no longer says that "protection from inappropriate influence" is among the "hallmarks of scientific integrity."

"This story is about Female Rage, where a woman gets angry over being horribly mistreated and abused, but eventually learns to forgive and move on and be a nurturing kind soul instead of vengeful, which would be masculine and unbecoming---" Shut up. Let women rip out their abuser's spines.

The US just put tariffs on most of the other countries in the world, the legal justification being a law permitting tariffs on countries insufficiently policing the use of slave labor.
