“I would like to cure brain cancer. I think that's not particularly controversial.” Be that as it may, the NIH terminated that scientist's grant. Here's a huge survey of the 2,500 grants that NIH has killed or delayed...so far. Gift link: nyti.ms/43Jz1yJ

I am not trying to be glib when I say this at all, in fact I've dedicated the better part of a year of my scholarly activity to taking seriously this idea that the "gain" of sabotaging US science is precisely the direct, unmitigated harm it does to well-educated urbanites—because they're the enemy

There's a lot of things that are talked about in terms of frogs and boiling water today, but if you time traveled back to the year 2000 and Congress believed you about the overall impact of tech on the US, they'd probably legislatively burn Silicon Valley to the ground and salt the ashes.

The way the party will treat queer people in a bad moment is the same way it'll treat Muslims, Jews, LatAm immigrants etc. Maybe "the groups" are outdated, but I think we're all still bound in a blood oath here. Just one leak will blow out a dam

learning about how much more water farming uses than AI has radicalized me against the concept of food

Comparing the IDF to the Russian Army isn't some potshot about "haha stupid Ruskies", it's just...basically a simple fact Everyone radicalized, no one coordinating, abundant horrific war crimes, a nation's armed forces gone completely feral and the state commanding them pretty much fine with it

We’re a government of like 300 20 year old groypers, every Fox News host, the weird bald guy in your philosophy class, an alcoholic, an Alzheimer’s patient, and four clones of Marco Rubio. We’re so fucked if there’s an actual crisis.

Yglesias refuses to update his priors with data. It's lazy When the Garcia news broke, these people said that "raising the salience" of immigration would be bad for Dems. But addressing the issue decreased Trump's approval and support for deportations, in both experiments and observational data.

Trump never condemned his Mar-a-Lago dinner guests Kanye West and Nick Fuentes

“I’m just going to say it, shame on any of us who throws a trans child under the bus for thinking they’re going to get elected. That child deserves our support. Don’t worry about the pollsters calling it distractions, because we need to be the party of human dignity.”

MAGA Republicans will lie to your face

~12 American deaths per year were preventing the largest war on the European continent in almost a century. If that’s not a reasonable exchange, I don’t know what is.
