Trump's attacks on the Department of Education should remind us never to elect to high office anyone without a stake in society. We suffered the same in the UK from 2010, when people who used private healthcare and private schools ripped up public services.

Yes this is definitely their new strategy. They are trying to get "Gender Critical" people to bully their colleagues, and then to use their media connections to destroy individual innocent trans people in the press. They're trying to make you afraid. Don't let them

Trump never had a peace plan for Ukraine. He had a plan for Ukraine's surrender, with a colonial resource grab. As Zelenskyy rightly refused it, or to cooperate in Trump's TV spectacular, the US has now cut Ukraine off. That's what blackmail looks like. That's what the world is up against.

It’s been a long day, but in short, bullies ain’t shit! I don’t care what title you hold! This isn’t some long gone reality tv show or failed casino; it is war! How dare a draft dodging dumb dupe humiliate an ally & berate a brave man who has actually been on a battlefield for his people?!

One pernicious step after another, Bezos encroached on the Post editorial policy. Today he seized it fully. The old Washington Post is gone. I'll never write for it again as long as he's the owner.

if ya'll think you're full of micro plastics now just wait a decade or two for the shitloads of plastic waste from consumer 3D printers to make its way through the environment. those things are giant plastic waste machines: struts, failed prints, garbage to sell on etsy all ending up in landfill.

I can’t remember where I read this, but it’s important: Why is it that when people think about traveling to the past, they worry about doing something small that will drastically change the present, but no one in the present thinks that doing something small today can drastically change the future?

It's always been the case that "buying" an ebook from amazon was only actually a loan they could rescind at any point, but lately Amazon have gone harder on this, and it is 100% so that they can wipe banned books from your libraries without your consent. Buy direct from authors. Get your files.

i’m so completely uninterested in superhero movies that at this point it feels like a distinct defect in my character. no interest in the self-serious ones, no interest in the jokey lighthearted ones. i tune out as soon as i see a cape or a mask in a trailer. what am i missing

It’s really not surprising that ads are getting worse. Ad firm used to hire creatives who were actually writers and musicians and artists but that’s no longer true. Now they hire people who majored in advertising and marketing.

One of these days we're gonna have to reckon with the fact that "money that I spend which does not directly benefit me is a waste" is a popular sentiment. I think we should state plainly that this is selfish on its face. And stupid when you have awareness which extends beyond your nose.

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.
