You wouldn’t have to start so many petitions and gofundmes if you stopped voting for the white supremacists, FYI.

"If Swalwell was guilty, his accusers would file charges" is a thing I keep seeing. But here's the thing: it's absolutely NOT how the system works. ONLY PROSECUTORS CAN FILE CRIMINAL CHARGES IN THE US LEGAL SYSTEM.

Somebody was talking about how all the single use plastics that we absolutely need for hospitals and medical settings are going to suffer from this petroleum crisis at some point, yet all i see in most publications is concern about gas prices.

Simple information about what the SAVE Act would actually do to American voters. Tens of millions would lose their right to vote unless they spend lots of $$$ and jump through bureaucratic hoops before November.

Inside the Department of War are two wolves: "We've shut down the Colleges of War because book learnings are woke, gay, and irrelevant to war fighting." "How come no one told us the Strait is important, there are different kinds of Kurds, Iran is big, and air power historically doesn't win wars?"

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

Magic Johnson was the grand marshal of the Rose Parade today, and as someone who remembers his November 1991 HIV announcement: if you had told anybody that day that he would be alive and healthy 34+ years later, I don't think they would have believed you. Medicine and research—they work.

In 2026 let’s normalize masking for public health. If we could admit that with healthcare being gutted, vaccine access restricted and previously eradicated diseases coming back… having an extra layer like a respirator makes good sense. Let’s also normalize not mocking people who mask!

I tell students that one of the crudest mistakes made in public policy is to overlook the fact that people will react to changes in ways that you might not have taken into account. And in retrospect it can look oh so predictable which makes it even more embarrassing.

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.
