Some hopeful studies featured in @sciam.bsky.social suggest that today's children and young people are more empathetic and accepting of others' differences than previous generations. We love to see it. 💙

Mamdani: I am in support of abolishing ICE… I'm tired of waking up every day and seeing a new image of someone being dragged out of a car, dragged out of their home, dragged out of their life.
Father of the 6-month-old being taken to the hospital because of flashbang ICE threw at his car. From Instagram.
"If that was Black Lives Matter, they'd have tanks rolling down Pennsylvania Avenue! But they let these fucking crackers take over the Capitol!"
Thanks for clearing that up Grandpa🙄
Moments like this, I wish Bluesky had a laughing emoji🤣🤣🤣
Given the terrible options... I'm hoping Netflix wins in the end. Maybe it will make them rethink their Theater Release strategy. Could be a good thing if they start ACTUALLY trying to release their films in theaters FIRST... and then put them on their streaming platform after a month in theaters...
If the Venezuelan sailors were enemy combatants, then the 2nd strike is a war crime.

New in PN: The sordid origin of 'America First,' explained by a historian
“Mainstream opinion in the '30s wasn't pro-Nazi but it wasn't anti-Nazi in any meaningful way either. People would say, ‘Germany for the Germans — what’s offensive about that?’ Nationalism has a certain accepted sensibility."
71 years ago today, the Chuck Jones/Bugs Bunny masterpiece, Long-Haired Hare, premiered.
Leopold! Leopold! 😂
Corporate America, Democrats, feckless media institutions, law firms and others --- MAGA isn't that popular. Stop bending the knee, conceding, being cowed, and assuming they are a massive force.

W.E.B. Du Bois on Robert E. Lee:
“Either he knew what slavery meant when he helped maim and murder thousands in its defense, or he did not. If he did not he was a fool. If he did, Robert Lee was a traitor and a rebel–not indeed to his country, but to humanity and humanity’s God.”
"Few prominent figures talk more often about urban crime than the president himself, whose view of the city he grew up in seems frozen in the New York of Charles Bronson’s 1970s 'Death Wish' movies, in which an angry white man goes around the city blasting away at black and brown toughs."
Screenshots here of an amazing exchange on X. Axios reporter Alex Thompson's new book on Biden claims (with no sources) that Biden shook DNC chair Jaime Harrison's hand without recognizing him. Harrison posts "it never happened". Then Axios editor Jake Wilkins - wow - tells Harrison he's wrong! 1/
