Found the email I sent when I got accidentally added to the faculty listserv of an orthopedic surgery clinic and nobody would remove me so I sent this email to all faculty/staff/med students and they removed me almost immediately

Hello Bone Colleagues,
I have invented a new type of ankle and I'm very excited to show it to you. Early raccoon trials suggest a 60% increase in scurrying speed and dramatic increases in fine motor banditry. I know we are not supposed to create super raccoons, but I think you'll change your mind and professional ethics when you see how cute they are. I believe we are on the cusp of a new era in advanced human scurrying because if medical science has taught me anything, it's that improvements in raccoons correspond 1:1 to improvements in humans.

I also got a lot out of talking with concentration camp history expert @andreapitzer.bsky.social, who was not at all surprised by the detainees’ claims about the size of “the box” or uncanny “middle ground” nature of the report.

Andrea Pitzer, a concentration camp expert and author of One Long Night: A Global History of Concentration Camps, was not surprised to hear any of this. In extrajudicial camps, which is how she classifies Alligator Alcatraz, "the box" is an almost universal occurrence.

Attempting to create a Potemkin Village to fool outsiders is also bog standard for concentration camp governments, Pitzer said. Throughout the Holocaust, and as late as 1944, Nazi Germany fixed up concentration camps like Dachau and Theresienstadt to fool the Red Cross and international media-who were then allowed in to inspect the camps—with varying degrees of success. The last step in those "beautification" efforts, Pitzer
said, was to move large numbers of prisoners somewhere else, to reduce overcrowding and to remove witnesses who might have shared damning information with the visitors.

It also isn't unusual for these efforts to not go far enough, because concentration camp governments
"simultaneously want to terrorize the target population while somehow convincing the general population that what is being done is being done for the people's good," Pitzer said. "They both want to show off what they're doing, and they hide what they're doing."
What you often ended up with from the visitors' reports was an uncanny
"middle ground," she said, where there is an attempt at accountability with some "finessing" of the full truth.

If it looks like an Amazon delivery and drives like an Amazon delivery, then it's an Amazon delivery, right? Not according to Amazon. Big companies like Amazon have built a vast network of subcontractors who deliver their packages while shielding them from accountability.

Around 30-40 ladybirds are resting together in a sunlit triangular recess between weathered pieces of wood, with warm natural colours and shallow depth of field creating a softly blurred background.

Right. Taylor Farms supplies McDonalds, Wendy’s, Starbucks, Chipotle, Subway, Burger King, Walmart, Costco, Trader Joe’s, Aldi and so on. Any of them could have contaminated lettuce. Just because taco bell got unlucky and was traced first doesn’t mean all the headlines should refer to them by name.

The vote on the constitutional question in the birthright citizenship case is an absolute scandal slate.com/news-and-pol...

On Tuesday, the Supreme Court ruled that the first sentence of the 14th Amendment means exactly what it says: Birthright citizenship is the nation’s fundamental law, and Donald Trump cannot repeal it via executive order. The vote was 5–4. This outcome is, of course, a relief. But the margin is a scandal. It is nothing short of stunning that Trump came one vote away from convincing the Supreme Court to repeal the bedrock of the Reconstruction Amendments based on a brazenly partisan contortion of their text and history. A view held only by fringe, far-right nativists until very recently has secured support from four of the nine members of the court: Justices Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, Neil Gorsuch, and Brett Kavanaugh. This is a shocking development that should upend all expectations that this Supreme Court can be trusted to apply the most basic constitutional guarantees when a Republican president seeks to nullify them. If a theory flatly rejected by all serious legal scholars and historians can come one vote away from success, no rights are safe. Everything is on the table.
