I can't stress enough how downplaying COVID has emboldened the far right. When you tell people "you do you" or say that schools don't need public health protections, you shift the Overton window, making it easier for anti-vaxxers to say it's fine to spread measles.

As if she couldn't get any more incredible, today I learned that Harriet Tubman was also an amazing naturalist who utilised Barred Owl calls as a form of communication on the Underground Railroad! 🦉: audubon.org/news/harriet-tubman-unsung-naturalist-used-owl-calls-signal-underground-railroad

As someone who is going through IVF, and as someone whose household very recently suffered the death of a baby, I feel extremely qualified to say that no, embryos are not children

I got a VERY excited call from my editor yesterday, then my agent joined the call, then I thought “Oh Jesus, is this about the Hugos?” but no! You glorious weirdos bought so many copies that THIS happened!

In 2021, MyPillow founder Mike Lindell offered $5 million to anyone who could disprove his claim that he had data showing voter fraud in the 2020 presidential election. Now, he must pay a 64-year-old from Nevada that award, a federal judge ruled Wednesday.

There is no amount of increasing border enforcement or deporting people that will ever make the American right wing believe the border is being properly handled by a democratic president. Any compromise on this is just a signal that they can demand more & keep the issue live. Immoral, bad politics.

SCOOP: Relief workers say as much as 70% of the Narcan they distribute is “trashed” in encampment sweeps. If the state is spending millions of dollars to provide Narcan to residents who need it the most, why is it being pulled from their communities? inthesetimes.com/article/los-...

I mostly stay in my lane, but the attitudes towards asylum seekers and all migrants in this country have gotten worse and worse in recent years. It's an absolute disgrace, and it cannot be laid at the feet of Republicans only.

What is a very real risk to EV adoption in the US? Auto dealers. Why? Simple. They make more than half their money fixing internal combustion engines. It's where the profit is. So, when you see articles saying dealers say customers don't want EVs, don't believe them.

A new report shows that the Proud Boys took a dramatic dive in activity in the latter half of 2023, dwindling to nearly nothing. There's lots of reasons for this. But the biggest, I believe? All the Proud Boys who went to prison. www.salon.com/2024/01/11/t...

At some point, "We have to keep Trump on the ballot or there will be violence" becomes, "We have to let Trump be president, or there will be violence," and that is, in fact, the point of the violence.
