for a junk drawer to legally qualify as a real junk drawer, what is the ONE absolute mandatory item it must include? A little IKEA assembly wrench.

“Let them.” I think Mel Robbins would say @mayor.nyc.gov is dropping sound advice ahead of the midterms.

No matter how bad things get, the Obamas make you feel hopeful. Miss them so, so, so much.

Scott Pelley surely knew he wld be fired after speaking truth to power during a contentious meeting with CBS' leadership. He did it anyway. Respect.

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning. Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

"Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it." Turns out this lesson can be gleaned from novels too.

If you want to put back statues and memorials and names of Confederate traitors while tearing down museum exhibitions on slavery because they don't show the greatness of the nation... the nation whose history you're celebrating is whiteness. The kind of nationalist you are is a white nationalist.

So that when Ghislaine Maxwell "escapes," everyone charged with keeping track of her will just shrug?

"They just want a pure aristocracy of inherited wealth." Yep, that and they believe that everyone who is poor is black. No such thing as poor, white people (who have also benefited from free tuition initiatives at top universities).

Saddened by the passing of legendary sociologist Herb Gans. Ethnographer extraordinaire and so generous with his time. Quick to pose penetrating questions about my drafts. Thinking through the answers made my work better. He will be deeply missed. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/21/b...

Herbert J. Gans, 97, Dies; Upended Myths on Urban and Suburban Life

A leading sociologist, he explored American society up close — living in a Levittown at one point — to gain insight into issues of race, class, the media and even the Yankees.

So, so relieved to see that Abrego Garcia is alive. Thank you, Senator @ChrisVanHollen, for traveling to El Salvador to check on him. Hope speaking with the Senator, and learning that so many people are rooting for him, was a source of comfort for Garcia.

Roundup = classic case of what sociologists call "statistical discrimination." Judging an individual based on stereotypes associated with the person's group, not the person's actual behavior, i.e. Japanese Americans will be loyal to Japan, or Venezuelans are all gang members.

How is it that Dems are so woefully unprepared to respond to Trump's continual abuse of power? Project 25 website was active months before the Nov election. Why didn't Dems develop a plan of attack back then?
