Big milestones are the consequence of significant "inch pebbles" as my friend Johanna would say. This is an encouraging bit of progress.

Pretty egregious error from this book: The authors say Swedish deaths fell by 2.3% during the pandemic, proving that the country's lax lockdown strategy worked. But they misread their source: Mortality is only down if you remove the COVID deaths. research.abo.fi/ws/portalfil...

This seems like a great day to remind Bluesky that Stephen Miller lived four doors down from me freshman year And our student council person asked him (and everyone) to sign a birthday card for our dorm’s janitor And he threw a tantrum and wrote an op-ed about not socializing with “the help.”

The public meltdown happening between the world’s richest man 🙄 and the President of the United States 🙄🙄 once again begs the age-old question: are men simply too emotional to be in positions of power?

"The official also said that the timing of the announcement -- occurring during Pride month -- was intentional." I've seen enough. We can confidently declare the Trump administration to be the biggest collection of assholes in American history.

Fortunate enough to teach today at our patrol school to new colleagues. I urged that they slow down, don’t be afraid of their neighbors, slow down some more, & “if you didn’t have a badge & a gun, how would you handle this 911 call?’ Try it. On every call. Then try it again. Please

"Those who are not vulnerable should immediately be allowed to resume life as normal," wrote Bhattacharya right before the largest COVID death wave. Hard to think of anyone worse to head the largest scientific research agency than a man who is both absolutely certain and absolutely wrong.

This. To organize and supply this entire operation deep within Russia for 18 months, extract your people before the op begins, and carry it out flawlessly takes incredible skill and organization (and some luck for sure). It's also a massive intel failure on Russia's part.

I think this points up some of the failures of coverage of Trump's lawlessness: You could've read dozens of articles on Trump's tariff policy with no inkling of how unprecedented & legally dubious was the legal authority he claimed to impose them. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/28/b...
