Feel like the better version of this is like “important to remember this whole Twitter billionaire fight started over whether they were going to take health care from 15 million or 30 million Americans.”

I want to remind everyone that without Elon Musk, we wouldn't be in this situation where our academic institutions, science enterprise, and democracy are being dismantled, and millions of additional people around the world are going to die. We want both of them to lose horribly in this fight.

Personally I think that having some of the most powerful institutions in American life publicly identify themselves as supporters of LGBT equality was (and is) a good thing, and that their retreat from that is quite bad.

The craziest thing about this fight between Trump and Elon Musk is that Republicans are trying to take away health care from 16 million people to pay for tax cuts for billionaires.

While Elon Musk and Donald Trump continue their public break up and tear down, the real story is the man replacing Musk at DOGE: Russell Vought. Democracy Docket dug into Vought and his plans to wreak havoc on millions of Americans. Fund reporting that focuses on facts and cuts through the noise.

Stephen Miller is privately raging over deportation numbers he deems too low. So he's shifting huge amounts of law enforcement resources away from fighting serious crimes and into his immigration crackdown. If voters knew about this, they'd recoil. 1/ (new piece) newrepublic.com/article/1961...

I think there’s been a longstanding assumption by mainstream media (including both news media and social media) that they could just keep catering to the right because liberals and leftists would never go anywhere else.

The other outcome of the Ukraine war that will affect the entire world no matter what lies ahead: No nation which has or gets nukes will ever give them up again. The number of nuclear nations will never decrease from here on, only increase. Which increases the odds that somewhere they will be used.

When I read people say PDF versions of TTRPGs should be free or only $5 because "you don't have to pay for paper or ink, so there's no cost," what they are saying is, they don't think they should have to compensate writers, artists, layout people, graphic designers, etc for their work.

“In a paper published in Nature Communications, the researchers have shown for the 1st time that mRNA can be delivered into the cells where HIV is hiding, by encasing it in a tiny, specially formulated fat bubble. The mRNA then instructs the cells to reveal the virus.” The virus can no longer hide!

I've seen a lot of discourse about men pursuing women with characteristics the loudly state they dislike or even hate. I was reminded of this quote from Trevor Noah’s book. Often, when they obtain who they pursued, they then seek to dim her light & strip away what made her shine so brightly 1/

🚨Another HUGE bit of news tonight; in collaboration with the Trump admin, Texas just kicked 20,000 undocumented college students — people who grew up in Texas and graduated from high school there — out of eligibility for in-state tuition. This may force thousands to drop out.

Boasberg: "Absent this relief, the Government could snatch anyone off the street, turn him over to a foreign country, and then effectively foreclose any corrective course of action." An unassailable point. The fact that the U.S. government is fighting this tells you what you need to know.

I watched large portions of this segment and at one point @mattyglesias.bsky.social threw up this slide, said Dems are "making bad press on this issue" and moved on. But the polling is wildly on Dem's side on this one! Opponents of what the Trump admin is doing with him outnumber supporters 2-1!

It's true. Hooters is a restaurant for people with big boobs fetish, where waitresses dress to accentuate said breasts. are encouraged to flirt with the male customers, and SOMEHOW people think it's a totally acceptable place to bring your children. So miss me with your "kink at Pride" complaints.

Just listened to this and I think their point about how car-centered infrastructure makes protest harder is a very good one, and under-explored. So the discussion of #TeslaTakedown as an attempt to protest despite, or using, that infrastructure is super-interesting
