Pushing to the Edge?

The upside? The tired person reading the files will have a much needed laugh!

'She also documented how few women were in federally sponsored clinical trials for AIDS drugs...
That was significant, she told The San Francisco Chronicle, because “the clinical trials are the only way you can get treatment.”' Long helped save so many lives.

Great smile, Tulip!

Lovely statement on what it means to lose Hampshire College…. From a town official.

Mother Nature is having hot flashes…

SUPPORT THESE DATA CENTERS SCHOOLS LIBRARIES BOOKSTORES

This was a very satisfying watch

University of Georgia goes for 18 weeks. It’s unthinkable!

Hey, meant to ask how you are verifying gender. How did I not get to hang out with you last weekend?

Devastating news. My condolences. It’s a huge loss for the valley but also higher Ed in general…

This is how you do it!

Missouri town fires half its city council over data center deal Residents of a St. Louis suburb turned out in droves to unseat four incumbents just days after the council approved a development agreement for a $6 billion data center.

I choose a new word daily too, if only as a reminder that there’s a good deal of luck to this game!

Monstrous.

On Tuesday Mr. Trump’s threat to wipe out the Iranian civilization if Tehran did not agree to open the Strait of Hormuz, a key global oil route, prompted a rare direct rebuke from Leo. The pope called the threat “truly unacceptable” in remarks to reporters, and added that Mr. Trump’s threats to blow up bridges and power plans went “against international law.”

I take it that this is the “punch” that Trump supposedly countered. Why not take Trump’s genocidal threat to be the punch, to which the Pope responded?

Yeah, the central demand the US is making of Iran, the core sticking point, is "please god just go back to February and let us forget this all ever happened"

monster. a true monster.

We cannot risk the world nor the wellbeing of our nation any longer,” she wrote. “Whether by his Cabinet or Congress, the President must be removed from office. We are playing with the brink.”

Now do the Department of Defense.

The only reasonably reaction, from one of my senators

he won in 2016 on handling of classified documents and 2024 on not starting foreign wars, which is proof that God is real, hates us, and has a sense of humor about it

Noooo……

I'm not sure how you can be against removing this man from office right now. What will it take? A nuke being dropped? It's too late then. The purpose of impeachment and the 25th Amendment is to prevent that type of thing from happening, not just to react to it.

It’s hardly the beginning or end of what’s wrong, but a big part of what’s in the middle is social media. No previous technology or platform—not radio, not TV—had the affordances that allows a single demented individual to command world attention so casually, so continually, and without consequence.

Oof. I’m so sorry! I know that feeling when things Pile up and Pile on. Take a deep breath and a night off if you can!

Happy to be added!

The war is very bad but so much stuff before the war was also very bad. So many people sick or dying due to the closure of USAID. The ICE detainments. The mass government layoffs. The destruction of the East Wing. The decimation of science research and funding. Fluctuating tariffs. Travel bans.
