Hey, just a quiet reminder: it’s not true that people get more conservative as they age. *Populations* get more conservative as they age because poor and marginalized people die sooner. nymag.com/intelligence...

Buckle up, folks. This is a constitutional crisis unfolding before our eyes.

Something my mind cannot stop thinking about is that in the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the Trump admin ADMITTED that he was wrongfully deported and they they still are fighting as hard as they can to not bring an innocent man home because it will make them look bad.

Meanwhile in the saner world- Donald Trump is now badly wounded. Europe and the UK can seize an advantage It’s time to fashion a new global trade order without the US www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

There were Jews in the early 1930s who thought Hitler couldn't be as bad as everyone claimed. Watching Bill Maher report on his dinner with Trump saying he felt more comfortable with Trump than he did with Obama, reminded of that history.

Isn't AI and automation supposed to be helping humans evolve away from jobs that expose them to toxic materials and health concerns? Just asking, because the lord of techbros apparently can't manage consistency with the main selling pt. of AI/automation.

The dream is dead

Listen to this lunatic calling himself the CHOSEN ONE. He’s gotta be fucking kidding. He’s taking on China? Yeah sure you are numbnuts. China is gonna have your wrinkled balls in a vice grip real soon. PS - it looks like your grandchildren slipped some red paint into your bronzer this morning.

READ BEFORE INGESTION. One Crazy thing that RFK could do would be to reintroduce this "One Night Cough Syrup" for us so we can make it through these turbulent times that are surely bound to bind our nerves and hearts into knots of confusion and pain.

My only wish in life has been that I can fully understand the relation between electromagnetic fields and gravity before I’m gone, and I haven’t lost hope! It’s going to be a “damn, I can’t believe we didn’t see it sooner moment” I bet! Then I’ll croak.

The message China is sending to the US is “we don’t need you and we don’t care, we have survived for 5,000 years (for most of which the US didn’t exist) and we’ll survive for another 5,000” It’s not looking good for the USA.

Russia has never been weaker. They do NOT have the human stock for a functioning military. They are pretty much cut off from the free world. The EU should give Ukraine everything they need to march into Moscow and off Putin once and for all. End this madness. End Putin.

Number of people who go bankrupt every year because of medical bills or illness-related work loss: Australia 0 Canada 0 Denmark 0 Finland 0 France 0 Germany 0 Iceland 0 Ireland 0 Italy 0 Japan 0 Netherlands 0 Norway 0 Portugal 0 Spain 0 Sweden 0 UK 0 United States 530,000 There’s a lesson there.

State lawmakers are looking to restrict how homeschool families can use vouchers (which amount to about $7K in taxpayer funds annually per kid) after education department data showed 56% of the money last year wasn't used on education-related items.

I used to select Dem primary candidates based on policy. Now I will aggressively try to destroy any Dem who says "we need to look forward not backward" and fervently support anyone who says "I will see these motherfuckers prosecuted and jailed if it's the last thing I do."
