Just the government “clawing back” AKA reneging on, funds they already gave you.

Commit the sin of empathy. This counts as political but it really shouldn’t be.

“I didn’t TELL people not to vote… I just said that if you were to vote Democrat or promote the Democratic Party that you were a deeply evil disgusting class traitor and imperialist scum!” www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8YMS3Jf/

The California Job-Killer That Wasn’t - The Atlantic apple.news/AojDbbnvwR32... “Since California’s new minimum wage came into effect in April, the state’s fast-food sector has actually gained jobs and done so at a faster pace than much of the rest of the country.”

As an American who’s lived in London this is too accurate

Thinking about those parents whose kid almost died of tetanus, and after receiving nearly a million dollars in care which included the tetanus vaccine, they declined to give him a preventative tetanus vaccine (or any other ones) post treatment. Kid was on a ventilator for 44 days

“Have Yourself A Merriam Little Christmas” Merriam, a career-oriented lexicographer from the city, returns to her small town for the holidays and meets Webster, a ruggedly handsome librarian, who shows her the true DEFINITION of Christmas. Hit us up @hallmarkchannel.bsky.social @netflix.com 🙏

Vaccines work and do not cause autism. I will die on this hill. These two boys had been exposed to the same smallpox source. The boy without a rash had been vaccinated, the one covered in rash hadn't been vaccinated. A global vaccination campaign led to eradication of smallpox globally by 1980.

Polite bog witches never make history.

So much THIS. The bros running that show completely lost the arc that drew us all in in the first place. The last season was such a slap in the face. I will never not be mad about it.

Here’s the most charitable reading I can offer: The tech barons behaved as though they were atop a social hierarchy, and expected mass adoration for their generosity+forgiveness for mistakes. Instead, Elizabeth Warren, Lina Khan et al treated them like the heads of *massive corporations.*

Watching white blood cells attack and destroy a pathogen under a microscope: *ppssshh* enjoy your echo chamber.

READ: “3,337 Parisians were equipped with GPS trackers to record their journeys…for journeys from the outskirts of Paris to the center, the number of cyclists now far exceeds the number of motorists, a huge change from just 5 years ago.” Evidence of leadership. www.forbes.com/sites/carlto...

Jay: I think social media should be basically common infrastructure that society gets to use and evolve it as society evolves, building a more democratic form of social media to reflect a democratic society.

Yep. This also explains the bizarre focus on linguistic changes. A wealthy, middle-aged political pundit cannot imagine being forced to move states to access HRT but he can imagine someone scolding him about misusing they/them pronouns. It's anxiety and animosity all the way down.
