RFK claims “70% of pharmaceutical products in the world are sold to our country” but this is a false misrepresentation. His 70% number is exaggerated and is based on sale $ not number of products sold, which ignores the fact that USA pays more for prescriptions than other places in the world

I am begging people to look up the actual history of the Luddite movement with it being bandied about everywhere. They weren't anti-tech, they were anti-exploitation, anti-Industrialist, pro-worker safety textile worker radicals who disabled factory machines that were maiming and killing workers.

kids cheat at school because it's sold to them as a credentialing exercise necessary to get a job, and because most of the role models and adults in their life do not value education except in those terms

I don’t know what’s more embarrassing, the misaligned top “dogefather” part, the fact “dogefather” looks like a German word for dogfucker, the horribly misaligned bottom 69420 part, or the fact this looks like the same leather my high school wallet was made out of

I see the already historically unpopular president is exploring how to get the military invovled in “assisting” local law enforcement just a few weeks before the real shortages caused by his inept economic policy start hitting. Probably nothing to worry about.

The reason billionaires like McMahon are obsessed with student debt is that creating financial precarity makes people more stressed about losing their job. If you’re worried about your job you’re less likely to quit and find work elsewhere. You’re less likely to ask for a raise. It’s pure class war.

My PhD student's NSF grant was terminated today. Her dissertation investigates why air pollution monitoring, metrics, and regulations don't properly capture the harms experienced by marginalized communities--esp in the most polluted Detroit neighborhoods. She and I are happy to talk with press etc.

If Hegseth resigns and we get an Acting Secretary of Defense, it'll be the eighth time we've had one. One came under Nixon, a second under GHW Bush. And then we had five under Trump.
