There’s nothing wrong with healthy eating, exercise, sunlight & stress reduction. They’re great ways to improve health. The problem is the “wellness” community. It’s always been a direct pipeline into eugenics. They believe you can “healthy living” your way out of disability, and it’s not true

if you pay an artist to make art they’ll use that money to be able to keep making art, and stimulate the economy in the process! whereas if you get GenAI to make art it’ll use private equity money to drive up energy prices in the short term and in the long term cause the economy to collapse

Columbia and Northwestern are the academic homes to the most prestigious journalism schools in the country and they are the two universities that caved to the Trump administration’s extortion demands that are directly connected to the First Amendment. Just gonna sit with that for a while.

this reminds me of a friend who thought he was middle class so he donated his car to a charity that helps poor people and a month later, he saw his car at his neighbor's house
Iashishranjann on Twitter writes: "i’m so fuckin middle class that i used to think H&M and zara is a luxury brand"

The tweet generated a long discussion on Twitter about how this person is not actually middle-class.

Mamdani: Whether you are an immigrant, a member of the trans community, one of the many black women that Donald Trump has fired from a federal job, a single mom still waiting for the cost of groceries to go down, or anyone else with their back against the wall—your struggle is ours too

Mamdani reiterates his support for trans folks, his determination to fight "the scourge of antisemitism," and his pledge to fight Islamophobia--and throws a punch at the billionaire-funded campaign of lies against him. "In a time of political darkness, New York will be the light." This is a SPEECH.

Here's another bit of conventional wisdom Zohran completely blew away: His speech was at well above a 10th-grade level. It was complex, erudite, punctuated by deep and fluent references. You don't have to condescend to voters with baby talk! Part of re-establishing norms is speaking like an adult.

I love that Zohran did not praise Cuomo in his speech. You absolutely do not have to say nice things about bad people. We should normalize that in “polite” politics: Praising bad people is not actually “civility.”

I think Dick Cheney’s death today highlighted this divide. The Democrats who still say shit like “reach across the aisle” and praise evil people are playing to a political audience that no longer exists. Mamdani wasn’t cruel to Cuomo in a Trumpism style, but he didn’t concede anything either.

This makes me absolutely incandescent
 Now more of those details are coming into the light. An upcoming book by Carol Leonnig and Aaron C. Davis confirms some of the worst suspicions: the DOJ didn’t convene a grand jury until January 2022, and it took another ten weeks before the FBI would formally begin its investigation into Trump himself. Garland also apparently put the investigations on an unnecessary hiatus before the 2022 midterms:

In fall 2022, ahead of the midterm elections, Garland opted to freeze both the classified documents and election investigations because of what some officials believed was his overly cautious reading of a DOJ policy not to take any public action close to an election. Trump was not even on the ballot and had not yet declared his presidential candidacy for 2024. But Garland nonetheless imposed the freeze.

As a reminder, when Biden announced student loan forgiveness—based upon a statute passed by Congress which explicitly said the President could do exactly that—Douthat called it "semi-Caesarist" because it was done "without consulting Congress."

The post from the Reagan Foundation is just complete gibberish. The ad did not, in fact, misrepresent Reagan's views. But the idea that anyone needs the Reagan Foundation's goddamn permission to use the publicly broadcast official remarks of a former president and/or edit them for brevity is crazy
The Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation and Institute learned that the Government of Ontario, Canada, created an ad campaign using selective audio and video of President Ronald Reagan delivering his "Radio Address to the Nation on Free and Fair Trade," dated April 25, 1987. The ad misrepresents the Presidential Radio Address, and the Government of Ontario did not seek nor receive permission to use and
edit the remarks. The Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation and Institute is reviewing its legal options in this matter. We encourage you to watch President Reagan's unedited video on our
YouTube channel.

It’s never ok for law enforcement to treat ppl as they’ve been treating immigrants & citizens. Nothing to do w/ their status or the law. The law is just the floor ICE has sunk below. It is an ethics Q why outsized groups of masked men intimidate ppl & violate property/privacy/bodies/constitution.
