For my European friends, American healthcare in a nutshell: You pay money every month To still pay a bunch of money to doctor Until you’ve paid enough money Then maybe everything is covered (probably not tho) Employers get massive tax breaks for it Everyone hates it Paperwork fucking everywhere

The question is always "what if a kid is wrongfully transitioned" and never "what if a trans kid is denied the ability to transition and endures years of excruciating dysphoria and has to have multiple surgeries later in life to fix the issues caused by going through the wrong puberty."

We are in the midst of what many consider the most promising pancreatic cancer cure research in decades. This is literally joining the War on Cancer on the side of cancer. It's happening in multiple departments. They're also attacking mRNA fax science which is the heart of the possible breakthrough.

Holy shit, R’ Abraham Joshua Heschel, z”l, does not mince words in this 1963 speech. Racism “is worse than idolatry” and is “a treacherous denial of the existence of God.” “Any god who is mine but not yours, any god concerned with me but not with you, is an idol.”

Not going to repost the nonsensical statement that prompted this. But we are SO FAR out of “wait it out” or “let’s work with them” territory SO VERY FAR. Politics as normal doesn’t work in a universe where one side is destroying politics as normal. It’s not only pointless. It’s dangerous.

This is an example of how nostalgia for the old days is simply nostalgia for when you were younger. The idea that America was a post-racial society in the 1970s/1980s only makes sense if you were literally a child at that time and couldn’t observe what any adult was experiencing.

Defend the liberty of a stranger as you would defend your own, or that of a loved one, because that is what's actually on the table—whether we are a society that will sit still as our neighbors are snatched in the night, and disappeared into darkness, or a society that will fight for each other.

I don't think people really get how these employee purges are just going to break the culture of public organizations for a very long time.
“You are presenting us as trophies in front of OPM,” one angry employee said in the meeting, referring to the Office of Personnel Management, according to the transcript. “I don’t want to hear anything about how you are sad, how you feel bad for everyone who’s losing their job today.”

“You screwed people, hardworking people, who trusted the word of this agency, left their careers, wherever they came from,” they added. “That’s on all of you. Take some accountability.”

An NSF official apologized to the fired workers, noting that they were “following orders” from the Trump administration.
