In the, apparently increasingly likely, event that someone doesn't receive their Social Security benefit I would recommend that your first stop not be trying to call SSA directly.

Judge Crawford is a former prosecutor, a common sense judge, and a mom. She trusts women to make their own health care decisions. Brad Schimel doesn’t, but she always will. That's what's at stake.

This is a mission everyone should be able to get behind. Tens of thousands of Ukrainian children have been torn from their families.

Elon Musk doesn't want you or his investors to see this video. It would piss him off bigly if you shared it because Tesla's already in something of a death spiral. By the way, it's a fantastically interesting video & includes Space Mountain technology & Disney secrets. youtu.be/IQJL3htsDyQ?...

Russia kidnaps Ukrainian children and gives them to Russians to erase their heritage and demoralize Ukraine. Over 20,000 so far. And the US just stopped helping track these kids and likely deleted the database of all the research. Pure evil, right maga?

The USPS is an incredibly important service we tend to take for granted. Shipping one of my mugs through them is around $10. Shipping them with any private company is more than double that price. Small business need the USPS.

Nobody likes waste. But what a lot of people don’t realize is that, in many ways, government is designed to be inefficient. It’s structured with redundancy and complexity both for audit and control purposes and because it tries to satisfy multiple competing societal goals. 1/2

Folks, exactly 5 years ago today I made this offer, & I'll do it again. Many graduate students are in danger of losing their one field season for collecting data- in March 2020 because of the pandemic, now because of Musk-Trump BS. This means that many won't be able to finish graduate school. 🧪🧵

If there's one thing that domestic violence research has taught me, it's that abusers set up no-win scenarios. They punish you whether you cooperate with them or whether you push back. The only way out is to strengthen ties with people outside of the relationship who can create new, better options.

Absolutely eye-popping number from the new YouGov/Economist poll (3/16-18): Trump is at 56% unfavorable among voters 65+, with only 44% viewing him favorably He was at 51% (unfavorable) and 47% (favorable) at this point in February (2/9-2/11). That is a big shift in a key demographic.
