Wisconsin 2015 was the canary in the coal mine. In addition to attacking tenure, they tried to remove “search for truth” from the University mission statement in the state constitution.

"This case presents no special facts or legal circumstances, only the banal horror of a man being wrongfully loaded onto a bus and sent back to a country where he was allegedly just raped and kidnapped," the judge wrote. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Took me a bit to process how big a deal this report actually is--its thus far the only review to look at the entire body of currently available research. It took two years to conduct, stands at 1,000 pages, and completely contradicts the Cass Review and the common arguments for bans on this care.

The treatment of trans people by the U.K. and U.S. governments often takes the form of state-sanctioned sexual harassment and assault. Contrary to the idea that this protects women from sexual violence, it demands it. Giving officers access to women’s bodies ensures it

If you're wondering why they've been defunding education for so long, it's because they're stupid and don't like the idea that someone could possibly know more than them and the stupid should rule the country because there are a lot more of them. Then the evil smart cash in on the stupid.

Roger Goodell is a giant piece of shit. The biggest piece of shit. This assface adds games to the schedule, ships these men to Ireland and Germany to gobble up even more money for the league and owners (players don't get more cash), and pretends they're the problem. I hope he gets dysentery.

An important distinction: it could always change but Tom Brady is an AUTHENTIC weirdo, not a weirdo who parrots things. Aaron Rodgers mindlessly repeats the talking points of the day while Tom Brady will never use warm water because he thinks it destroys his enzymes. Tom Brady is worthy of respect

There is something sad about people who at one point were smart and had interesting things to say becoming people who can only regurgitate the same 3 lines about any topic. Like that’s all this guy says nowadays, the same thing we’ve heard 90,000 times before from Charlie Kirk. He’s been Pod Peopled

1. It's Fustilarian Friday and today's drop is the "Restoring Gold Standard Science" executive order. My read is that this is designed to (1) protect far-fringe figures such as the antvaxxers now heading our health agencies, and (2) kneecap efforts to use scientific evidence in regulatory policy.

AI agents don't read, but I do. And call me a radical, but I don't dream of a future where society replaces actual critical analysis of the tech industry with the tech industry's own AI products

It takes a lot to leave me speechless, but it turns out I have a thing for knee-high leather boots. And so when tested -- on national television -- on my ability to hold leather boots and economics in my mind at the same time, I failed so spectacularly that now the whole world knows, I guess.

Trump cut staffing at the VA, and now Dallas vets are waiting months for care. Surgeries are being delayed. Vets are being left without mental health care. I’ve called for an investigation—because if you claim to support veterans, act like it.

It’s crucial to keep emphasizing that these EOs were lawless. There was never a plausible argument they were constitutional. This administration has nothing but contempt for the constitution and the rule of law.

As someone who was down for over a month when I had COVID, I believe everyone should be as protected as possible from both the health and financial impacts. There's no reason to restrict boosters at this stage. Make sure to follow the link and comment before the deadline if you agree.
