Hi, hello, they canceled the Access Board, froze OCR (ADA-enforcement), are currently gutting OSERS (special Olympics, Amer. Printing House for the blind, IDEA law), and are to declare Section 504 unconstitutional We are also SUPER the targets here.

MAGA: how dare trans people uncomfortable in their own skin use drugs and surgery to change their bodies. Also MAGA: mOaR sTerOiDs!

You can’t study warfare for at least the last two centuries without realizing that wars are mostly won & lost by logistics, supply, command & control, strategy. So aside from radiating Chernobyl levels of small dick energy this is just wrong abt what a sec def needs to do.

This Daily Show clip is so good, but make sure to stick around to the very end for Bill O'Reilly.

Guys, I can't believe the guy who's last act as President was fomenting a violent insurrection and attempting to hang his Vice-President is acting erratically and outside historic norms?! Please send help, my mental model is broken.

what this shows, sadly, is that Donald Trump actually understands crypto very well

The fact that an article about banning trans women from sport prominently features a picture of a cis woman basically tells you everything.

one thing i’m stuck on is this idea that “masculine” energy means license to act like a chud in public, as opposed to more traditional notions of public masculinity, such as those that put a premium on the performance of integrity, honesty, honor and generosity.

This letter in the New Statesman a couple of years ago seems even truer now.

Great anecdote here from former FT editor Richard Lambert on the time Manmohan Singh came to the FT to talk with him and Martin Wolf. H/T @andymukherjee70.bsky.social

Repurposed Assad tank in Syria.

This you?

fondly recalling how after Jan 6 Congress went home for a long weekend, didn't start impeachment proceedings for a week, which then took another month

Terribly irresponsible comments from Kim Leadbeater. Fearing being a burden is not a “legitimate reason” to seek an assisted death and the MP proposing the bill should not be musing whether it is. www.msn.com/en-gb/news/u...

A Dignity in Dying patron, AC Grayling, has told The Telegraph he’d already like to extend assisted dying to people who are “wheelchair bound.” Not remotely chilling. www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2024/11...

He ran the most extreme campaign in American history, using language that no presidential candidate has ever used. Why would anyone be surprised that he wants to run an extreme presidency?
