It’s somewhat true that the body knows what it needs, but you can almost die because you move the wrong way and your intestine strangled itself to death

You know why European countries are so quiet about the El Salvador situation? Because they started the normalisation of extraterritorial detention of migrants and asylum seekers, often without any due process. The UK’s Rwanda plan. Italy’s attempted plan with Albania. And some still want to do it.

Suffering is random. To alleviate it humans go into medicine, music, literature, philosophy, poetry, psychology, politics. And some, to ignore the sufferers, convince themselves that not-suffering is a sign of righteousness. You can’t discuss on a factual level with eugenic death cultists

Regular, non-expert people can maybe be forgiven for thinking we'd get a redux of the first administration. But nobody who fancies themselves a thought leader should have expected that. This was a consistent theme during the election: no guardrails this time.

To be honest if the stock market was tanking like this because of an international taxation agreement or the introduction of some good minimum wage I would shrug it off. People with capital freak out for all different reasons and line-go-down doesn’t mean bad automatically. But yeah, this is absurd

“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”

a lot of times people say the problem with the media is that they are "stenographers" or that they just blindly report both sides without fact checking but that severely understates the problem. When Trump was unable to articulate an appealing message they took the initiative to invent a better one

What I don’t see commented enough in the case of Dr. Alawieh is that not everything is direct order from the president. The minions working on the case surely knew who she was and that it might cause controversy, they also know no one is going to get in trouble for kidnapping a woman wearing hijab

Democrats think that if they react appropriately to Trump, it will cause the public to change its view of Democrats (“they’re hysterical!”) and not its view of Trump. It’s a belief rooted in a total denial of their own political agency as representatives of more than 50% of Americans

TL;DR: @royalsociety.org exposes itself as morally limp is, I believe, a fair summary here #AcademicSky Remember this outcome next time it tries to say it stands up for science, because it's more difficult to find a better proof that it does not. www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

There is maddening energy in knowing so many stories of activists’ lives ruined by dumb accusations. You want a fairer society immediately becomes you are a menace to society as it is. And then seeing Trump clearly serving the interests of foreign powers unchallenged. How do you remain sane

This is true. And yet The Royal Society saw fit to make him a fellow, one of the highest honours in science. And they have yet to comment on his role in the destruction of science in the USA

I think there’s a truth to the definition of economic anxiety, in the sense that economic and anxiety are involved. The subjects believed capitalism and patriarchy, made it financially but didn’t get super-rich/dominant, so now in their own world view they are losers and beta. And they get anxious

a priori, the whole “economic anxiety leads to racist scapegoating” always seemed backwards to me. my intuition is economic anxiety would activate the parts of one’s identity that are worker-centered. economic security otoh leaves people bored & aimless and indulging their other identities
