If you had included a bar at 26%, that would have taken away from the main point. Perhaps showing no bar at all for “everyone else has 10% or less” could make the message feel more honest and still emphasize your main message.

This graphic seems to suggest that “All others” with “10% or less” have a combined 10% of total support, which is a bit misleading. It looks like the information is presented as a bar graph, but “10% or less” includes Simmons (10%), Andrew (7%), Amiwala (6%), and “Others” (3%), totaling 26%.

Crude oil prices, showing a very sharp increase in the last day, from around 65 to 101 dollars per barrel..
Oil prices wouldn't be all over the news today if more of our economy was powered by local, secure renewable energy.
This isn't an "energy crisis". It's a fossil fuel crisis.
44% of UK electricity came from renewables in 2025. More of that plus an electrified economy => no more oil shocks.

KEY WORD: DISABILITY
We tried to warn you all that they were coming for the disabled communities— we’re are there now.
One of the lessons I hope people take away from Jesse Jackson’s life and the outpouring of remembrances small and large is that progress is made and measured in every act and utterance against oppression and not measured solely in legislative or electoral victories.
Some of us didn't hop online in the 90s or the 2000s to get rich and famous, man.
Some of us hopped online in the 90s and 2000s 'cause it was FUN to chat with people all over the world... for free!
Baby, we grew up when it cost a zillion dollars to call long distance! We had pen pals at school!
if you're an older person who finds words like mogg and maxxing annoying, just starting using them. people over the age of 30 have the superpower to end trends by simply adopting them
I think that the best way to build an audience for your writing is to write interesting things that people will want to read.
“Since those documents you saw outlining allegations of terrible people committing awful crimes against children does not involve me, the country needs to move on and stop talking about those crimes”
NEW: This isn't about "training." The two agents who murdered Alex Pretti - Jesus Ochoa and Raymundo Gutierrez - have been with Border Patrol for 8 and 12 years respectively. You can't reform CBP. Abolish ICE/CBP. www.propublica.org/article/alex...
Epstein’s economic power among academics was made possible by a capitalist system that makes higher education dependent on the charity economy rather than a public good supported by taxing the rich
When they say Me Too "went too far," they mean "got too close."
To be fair, every time I hear Oracle I think of Bryan Cantrill.
A stage with lots of cast and audience members, some in hats and coats. A screen is at the top half of the photo. There’s a shadow of a girl and trees, and other ambiguous shapes. There’s a layer of red color. Below the screen is another smaller screen with the same image, about as tall as a person.
Just saw The 4th Witch, by

Got my second shingles shot today.
Someday corporations and technology companies will pretend they were always against this
MLK Jr. said America suffers not just from "the vitriolic words and actions of the bad people but for the appalling silence of the good people."
Remember this.
“There is extreme consternation that your president appears completely immune to data, facts, arguments and common knowledge…We cannot understand what is happening. We wonder what is next.”

Pritzker: The Insurrection Act is designed for circumstances where your rights can’t be protected by local authorities
This is exactly the opposite.
Your civil rights are being infringed upon by CBP and ICE, and then they want to call in troops claiming that they’re protecting CBP and ICE.
On Fox 9 just now they interviewed a woman at the scene in Minneapolis. She says she’s not an activist but felt a call to action like she hasn’t felt since 9/11. She says she was raised to love America. She says she’s never felt scared of the government in her life, until now.
I do almost all my reading via audiobook because the amount of time I am available for uninterrupted holding and staring is much less than the amount of time I am available for listening
Ok all sarcasm aside, what these white supremacists are really talking about is when they are asked to apologize for doing racist things. Which happens. Because racism is something to apologize for. What they are saying is that no one should have to apologize for racist actions or statements.
This year produced the single largest mass mobilizations in the country's history. Its entire history. I think that there are people who would say that this isn't true EVEN AS THEY ARE LIVING THROUGH THOSE MOBILIZATIONS. It's something to see.
“While the true intent of the person or persons behind the account cluster remains a mystery, the mechanics of their deception are relatively transparent: convincing authentic users to mock or refute outlandish claims simply enhances their reach in a given digital ecosystem.”
Over and over.
