Very excited to celebrate 50 years of Political Economy at Sydney this Thursday! For many of us being students of PE has been life changing. We are indebted to the people who fought for an alternative to neoclassical economics and allowed us to study and teach the incredible program we have today

This Kennedy is not delusional, self promotional or arrogant. She too is a child of Ethel & Robert F. Kennedy. She is a lawyer, author & human rights advocate and president of the Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights center. Her parents are surely proud of her

This actually happened: they dressed up the truck with a guy tied down on the roof, while the driver and passengers wore moose heads. They drove down Interstate I-35 and caused 16 accidents. Yes, they went to jail, yes, they were so drunk, and yes, men cannot be left alone. =======================

This is how screwed up Florida is. It’s illegal to board your dog in Florida if it’s not current on its vaccinations. It’s a law. But you’re free to send your disease infested kid to elementary school to get other kids sick.

In July/45, these thirteen-year-old girls were camping, swimming in a river near Ruidoso, New Mexico. The girl pictured at the front is Barbara Kent. Unbeknownst to them, nearby the Manhattan Project had just detonated a nuclear bomb as a test. All but Kent died of cancer before the age of 30.

In an extraordinary move to counter Republican redistricting in Texas, roughly 30 Democrats in the state House are heading to Chicago today to deny a necessary quorum for the GOP to move forward with those efforts. They plan to stay for the week, in a plan brokered with Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker.

Re Spotify: “If the price of ‘discoverability’ is letting oligarchs fill the globe with computerised weaponry, we’re going to pass on the supposed benefit.” Not only does Spotify suck the life out of artists, its profits go to literally sucking the life out of others too

Objective facts are objective facts. If the AI Overview so egregiously messes up the facts about something that's easily verifiable, how can it be relied on for anything else?

I Googled to see if Maria Von Trapp remarried after Georg died. The result was horrifying.
Having blatantly false information as the top search result is actually a huge problem for us all.

Since the "no tax on tips" thing is showing up again, here's what it's for, because it sure as fuck isn't for working people. The bill will be worded in a manner so 'extra compensation' above and beyond hourly or salary will be considered a 'tip'. Like ceo's multi-million dollar bonuses. Get it?

Trump 2.0: Armed fed'l agents burst in (apparently a no-knock warrant). Since they'd worked the case, they knew who they were looking for. Instead, they found a mom & her 3 girls. Nonetheless, they sent them out into the rain in underwear & then took all their $ as evidence. kfor.com/news/local/w...

for centuries there have been stories by Māori about a green glow from the forest floor, which were written off as superstition because no Europeans ever saw them ... it turns out there's a bioluminescent fungi, mycena roseoflava, whose dim glow can't usually be seen due to light pollution.
