Mark is beloved by millions of kids, which makes it particularly great that he’s teaching them how to inform their parents that Tesla is a danger to children. This is another one of those “we don’t need a ‘Rogan of the left’, we need normal men” examples.

Ume is getting bolder and braver as she navigates tapir life and learns how to swim like Mom behind the scenes. Yuna is doing a great job of making the pool look super fun, splashing around, and doing some aquatic foraging at the swim-up salad bar.

This elderly man showed up to support an anti-trans bill in my home state and then, because he had to wait hours to testify, he was stuck listening to queer folks rally against it By the time it was his turn to speak, he'd changed his mind Never doubt that speaking out can change hearts and minds

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave. Tell them: 1. Vote NO on Cloture AND 2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill. Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it. TODAY is the showdown. 🤳🏽: (202) 224-3121

Particularly unfair given that Neil has been the loudest anti-AI voice and suffered the most from an ongoing deluge of the drak, while doing everything he can to always keep subs open to all--a rarity these days for pro markets.
