To the people complaining these sex abuse cases have created a world where men now have to think 10 times before they touch a woman. Yes, that's the point. It's called consent. Welcome to human decency.

This is why more women don't come forward, and why more rapists aren't jailed. Because mostly-male cops and prosecutors find it more believable that a 20-yr-old would want to have sex with a room full of fraternity brothers than accept she was raped. What ever happened to common fucking sense?

I know Rahm Emanuel. I worked with him for years in the Clinton administration, and then when he was Obama’s chief of staff. Rahm Emanuel represents everything that’s been wrong about the Democratic Party for the last 30+ years. Be warned. robertreich.substack.com/p/the-rahm…

The amount of Amazon workers relying on SNAP and Medicaid has nearly tripled since 2020 — while Amazon’s annual profits soared by over 550%. It’s the same story everywhere: corporate profits are at record highs, while workers’ share of the economy is at a record low. We must unrig the system.

Sen. Susan Collins helped steer millions in federal defense contracts to Navatek, whose CEO illegally funneled thousands of dollars to her campaign. The FBI sought to launch a probe and was eyeing Collins and other lawmakers. Then Trump gutted the unit in charge. THREAD 🧵

LOL, the gotcha part in the second paragraph is truly hilarious. Who will think of the straight white rightwing men in the literary world? WHO? WHO?
Last week, the longlists for the National Book Awards were announced. Among the 20 authors in the fiction and nonfiction categories, nearly all are straight white males. Most are also on the political right, some even on the far right. Remarkably, mainstream media outlets haven’t reported this, perhaps because they don’t think it’s noteworthy. It’s as if we were living in 1956 rather than 2026.

If you’re scratching your head at this “news,” well, it’s because I made it up. Or rather, I inverted the particulars about the authors’ identities and their political views to make a point: If today, as a reader, you recoil at the thought of a time in which minorities were systematically marginalized when it came to the literary world’s public honors (and so much else), shouldn’t you also recoil now that the tables have been almost completely turned? And if you object to the right’s efforts to politicize the arts, won’t you also object when the efforts come from the left?

British mathematician & physicist Phyllis Nicolson co-developed the Crank–Nicolson method, a foundational algorithm in numerical analysis. Her contributions during/after WWII laid the groundwork for modern computational science, fluid dynamics & heat transfer modeling. Born #OTD 1917. #WomenInSTEM
A black-and-white portrait of British mathematician and physicist Phyllis Nicolson (born Phyllis Lockett, 1917–1968). The head-and-shoulders shot is against a clean, plain, and bright studio background with no visible objects. Nicolson is posed facing forward with a subtle, pleasant smile and bright, intelligent eyes. She wears her dark, wavy hair styled in a mid-century chin-length cut with volume around the ears and curls framing her face. Her attire is a simple, light-colored collared shirt. The overall mood is dignified, optimistic, and intellectual. The composition utilizes soft lighting that minimizes harsh shadows, highlighting her features cleanly. This image holds historical significance, capturing a pioneering woman in STEM whose wartime and postwar contributions co-developing the Crank–Nicolson method laid foundational work for modern computational science.
