GREAT! How are they going to enforce it?

i was a gluten-free, vegan teetotaler who followed a strict anti-inflammatory diet and took probiotics and a bunch of other anti-inflammatory supplements when i had such intense #endometriosis pain i couldn’t get out of the fetal position for years we need actual medical solutions

Wagatwe is an ESSENTIAL voice and supporting her ability to do more work will ultimately support an enormous number of people that will be helped by the education she provides others. Anything you can give will make a difference.

🚨UPDATE: Rümeysa Öztürk has now suffered three separate asthma attacks while in DHS custody. She has not received her required asthma medications—a violation of her fundamental right to medical care. This is cruelty, it is neglect, and it is a damning moral and legal failure.

My friend and I are trying to remember the name of an old #RPG that had a d6 + d20 mechanic. You rolled them together, and if you rolled lower on the #d20 than you did on the d6, something cool happened. We're both coming up blank. Anyone know what system this is?

Eugene Robinson is leaving the Washington Post after 45 years following Jeff Bezos' "significant shift" to the paper's opinion section

As a failed mathematician, this story hit home. And Wil Wheaton reads it beautifully.

I can’t compete with this

We import a boatload of Nickel and Vanilla from Madagascar - not stuff you can grow/mine everywhere. We don’t sell them a much cos the average income is $510 per year. Because Trump’s Tax is based on trade deficit, not tariffs, we’re now slapping a 90% tariff on Madagascar.

Today's It's Storytime is Proof by Induction. José Pablo Iriarte tells a beautiful story that landed in me in such a specific and heartbreaking way, I wasn't sure I'd be able to narrate it without being overcome.

This is injecting bleach for the entire global economy. And he's not just floating the idea: he's holding the syringe.

We don't know who struck first, us or them. But we do know it was us that scorched the sky...unfortunately it turns out they don't actually fly.

THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A “TRADE DEFICIT”—IT’S JUST CALLED “BUYING THINGS.” YOU DO NOT HAVE A TRADE DEFICIT WITH YOUR DENTIST JUST BECAUSE HE NEVER BUYS ANYTHING FROM YOU.

We go now live to our economics editor who has broken out the good whiskey and seems to be playing with a revolver. How are the markets reacting Greg

This looks like the evil twin brother of the bear-shaped honey jars...

I mean this is the problem, the lesson from the 25 hour speech was to not give an inch, and within 10 seconds Senate Democrats... gave an inch

The pattern of ICE apparently hustling its detainees over a state border to frustrate habeas petitions in the jurisdiction where they were detained continues. Remember that ICE didn’t disclose Öztürk’s location, publicly or to her counsel, until she reached Louisiana.

This is so on the mark. Does Booker see an opening here for himself? Absolutely. You want people like that.

BREAKING: Trump admin says it mistakenly deported a Maryland father who had *withholding of removal* back to El Salvador on March 15. Govt told court Monday it won't bring Kilmar Abrego Garcia back. "What.The.Fuck..." one govt attorney told me. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc... @theatlantic.com

Absolute evil. Bring him and all of the rest of them back.

wow what are the odds i ask u

this is why when your grandparents/parents who smoked two packs a day and drank black coffee from 7am through till 10pm tell you that adhd isnt real and your meds are a crutch you should them to fuck off.

I am a horrible person. 🤣

This. Sandy Hook. Uvalde. A lot of the reason why I have lost a lot of faith in this country is that America is willing to let it's own children die due to gun violence. How do we expect people in this culture to stand up for anyone else, if it won't even protect it's own children?

Sixteen days have passed and despite filing complaints, Google continues to serve up this slop description that claims we've published "AI-generated stories." We've done nothing of the sort. In fact, we've been extremely vocal about our stance on "AI." NEVER IN OUR PAGES.

SCOOP: The Trump admin appears to be going into a visa database to quietly change students' immigration status. It's coming entirely by surprise — setting students up to be detained without warning. It's Mahmoud Khalil & Rumeysa Ozturk — on a wider scale.

Pierrot Lunaire. In college I had to listen to it in translation so I had to hear how awful the lyrics are in addition to the awful scream-singing.

Like violent, mentally unstable necromancers who swear a lot and make really horrible life choices? Then maybe check out the Eric Carter series www.penguinrandomhouse.com/series/EC2/e...

I'm so burned out, that I've barely managed to write 12k words since Jan. But when I wrote Starfire Ascending, I did 20k to 25k words per week. My brain weeps at the idea of pulling that off now, and yet, I wouldn't touch that cursed plagiarization machine even if someone paid me. 1/2
