key thing we learned from Virginia campaign
Republicans are freaked the fuck out about accountability
Not just Trump, all of them - including their billionaires, like Thiel
They fear what's coming when Dems win - and Dems need to be ruthless about it
The Drudge homepage right now
Officials see no real progress and say attending would be pointless under current conditions.-Tasnim
surely no army in military history has ever been laid low by disease, a famously uncommon problem among people living in enforced close quarters
Their goal is to weaken the US and they're right on track, selling off our natural resources, robbing our Treasury, destroying our educational system, drawing down our ammo stocks, and weakening our forces.
Republicans are fine with this. 🤷🏻♀️
For those wondering why NATO exists and why countries want to join the defensive alliance.
The truth is that nutrition is complex. Eating healthy during pregnancy is very important for the health of mom and her baby, but even with a healthy diet, mom can still get #preeclampsia.

Read a new article in Clinical and Investigative Medicine (49.1) exploring the role of miR-210 and the JAK–STAT signalling pathway in the pathogenesis of preeclampsia. Read the research: bit.ly/CIM49-1d #ClinicalResearch #MedicalEducation
The fact that everything dooming the economy right now is a series of “Trump stuck his dick in a beehive” type decisions, to our detriment, makes it less likely that the press will correctly cover this as his fault. But it is all his fault. He could’ve sat there, done nothing, and taken credit.
It bears repeating that historically, the #1 thing that keeps people alive in hard times and disasters is “the ability to play well with others”
5/ Policy shifts coming fast. Korea's President: “South Korea must swiftly transition to renewable energy.”
“Relying on fossil energy is extremely dangerous for the future. We do not produce these resources ourselves,& chasing imports has led to the current crisis"

YouTube is showing me ads for software to “create your own AI influencer” and I would very much like to set off a global contraceptive bomb and give the bonobos a chance.
Found it strange that ppl push back on my argument that sales of Solar, batteries, EVs are going to accelerate now with Iran War, coz LINE GO UP for a decade now

a bowl of lentil sausage stew with carrots, tomatoes, and barley also visible
The kids have busy schedules tonight; lentil sausage stew and grilled cheese it is.
This should be a much bigger story.
The Trump administration is about to hand TotalEnergies, a French oil company, nearly $1 billion of your money to cancel its American offshore wind projects. And they are pulling the cash from an account they are not allowed to use this way.🧵
Shoebills are so cool. Some of the reasons they bow are-
Greeting and Recognition: Bowing is a way for them to greet humans they have bonded with or recognized, such as keepers.
generally adults still believe they owe things to children
The oligarchs hate renewables because they can't profit from them. Once everyone buys solar panels, their energy costs are free. It isn't only the oil industry that doesn't want this to happen. Utility companies don't want it either. Anything that helps people and doesn't make money is an anathema.
World leaders gathered in Barcelona, Spain for a summit entitled “In Defense of Democracy,” and I felt heartened and hopeful. We need an answer to CPAC and the Kremlin, a worldwide coalition to stand against the far right.
overheard two philosophy grad students at the Panera near the CoL talking about how they never read papers with complex objections because AI would summarize them.
I hate it here. Perhaps Hempel's spirit could possess some falcons to exact revenge, but I'm not much for metaphysics or emotivism…
“The intent here is obvious. It’s to hollow out this agency and hand it to the resource extraction industry and prepare it for, potentially, the eventual transfer of our public lands to states.”

⚡️Ukraine pushing to produce home-grown ballistic defense system 'within a year,' Zelensky says.
Kyiv's intention to pursue such a system is not new, but the announcement marks the first time officials have attached such an ambitious timeline to the effort.
Big abortion win in PA today - the ban on Medicaid funding is unconstitutional!
AND there's a fundamental right to abortion!
We won!
(Though this Commonwealth Court opinion can be appealed - we'll see what our AG does.)
Not enough people are talking about this.
The head of the FAA, the person whose job is to oversee the airline industry, failed to divest his MULTIMILLION-DOLLAR stake in an airline company his agency regulates.
Climate removed from top level navigation on BBC News.
Of course the roots of the “shadow docket” are in service to the fossil fuel billionaires who captured the Court. 🧵
I am again asking people to pay attention to what has happened to our National Science Foundation and by extension thousands of researchers across the country.
The devastation is ongoing and worthy of continued outcry to officials and journalists. 🧪
Who’s known for exploiting valid grievances for the purposes of spreading disinformation..?
CSIS has reports out - we need regs on social media the same way we have oversight on other media like print/radio/television.
@markcarneyforpm.bsky.social, we aren’t taking influence ops seriously enough.
