There are many ways to destroy a university. Texas Tech, Texas A&M + the University of Texas have each taken a different approach…But the result will be the same: substandard education, substandard research + graduates who are less prepared for their future… + more prepared to obey without question.

Dear friends, during some recent medical examinations, the doctors found a small, localized nodule in my lung. It was detected at a very early stage and is well-localized.

Hot pink background. The Falcon (Sam Wilson) grits his teeth in the background looking forward. In the foreground, so is Captain America as he says to someone, "This means it is up to EACH AND EVERY ONE OF US to remind ourselves, and anyone who will listen, that ALL men and women are created equal."

Putin told Iran the locations of our warships. Today, Trump rewarded him by lifting sanctions and allowing American dollars to fuel Russia’s war machine. Our troops are in harm’s way, and the President cut a deal with the adversary putting a target on their backs.

Again, I never again want to hear the Republicans claim the mantle of, or be referred to as, the "party of national security." This, as with threatening to invade our NATO allies, should have long ago immediately ended his presidency. It also should again now.

He hasn’t done so on his blog, apparently. He may have/probably has done so on Twitter, but I can’t check that. A quick check of a couple of other sites where he has occasionally been published doesn’t turn up anything either.

The radical right Christian white nationalist Nazis running the administration view Catholics as papist idolaters. They're not number one on the hit list but they are definitely on the list.

1. Russia is not winning on the battlefield and had to reform the entire budget in favor of the continuous war against sovereign Ukraine. 2. Zelenskyy has reacted favorably to any suggestion of a peaceful deal that would stop Russian aggression. Each attempt of such was declined by Kremlin.

DHS has engaged in widespread and violent lawlessness for nearly 2 years now. If you purportedly have laws but the branch of government charged with executing them refuses to adhere to them, do you actually have laws?

Thread on one of my favorite pet peeves. "Medieval" is not a synonym for "bad" or "barbaric" or "cruel" or "violent." Modernity has seen plenty of new and worse ways to be all of those things.

when u see the maga men or the tech bro movement eschewing values like mercy, kindness, thoughtfulness et al because they think it makes them weak
"Look, look!" said the voice of the Bear. "It can't talk. It has forgotten how to talk! It has gone back to being a dumb beast. Look at its
face.
" Everyone saw that it was true. And then the greatest terror of all fell upon those Narnians. For every one of them had been taught—when only a chick or a puppy or a cub—how Aslan at the beginning of the world had turned the beasts of Narnia into Talking Beasts and warned them that if they weren't good they might one day be turned back again and be like the poor witless animals one meets in other countries. "And now it is coming upon us," they moaned.

None for us today, but yesterday’s anti-Talarico piece made a big deal of him saying that God is non-binary. So I guess the Texas GOP is all in on heresy.

On the 10th anniversary of Russia’s election interference, the FBI Director —who called it a hoax—is flying to Moscow, as guest of the FSB. As I said to @sarahfitzpatrick.bsky.social: “Unless he’s going to warn them to stay out of our elections, and get out of Ukraine, he has no business there.”
