Stop being gross, rapey pigs. Why do you have to get 1000% caught? Because you are empowered by all the others who get away with this same criminal, anti-woman behavior. The Epstein Files show this! Shame!
A new report from the University of California shows that the state's decision to raise the minimum wage for fast food workers to $20/hr didn’t hurt jobs, or raise prices much.
Data from over 2,000 restaurants shows that the $20/hr minimum wage didn’t reduce employment.

Surely your attention to detail would be invaluable!
Or regular public art/ art making gatherings too!

Thank you for posting these! I love them. I live in an exceedingly dry, largely treeless area, so I find these extra fantastic. Almost as useful as chapstick. 😊
Little moment of zen.
It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.
This is a kid getting breakfast with his dad. Put yourself in their shoes. This is America-home of the free and the brave??
It's been 3 months since the Justice Department was supposed to release the full, unredacted Epstein files.
I’d be interested in doing one on AI slop and inequality as a sociologist. I’m not an AI expert but I do work on inequality, nationalism, and lgbtq populations. Regardless, good luck w the project!
Mushrooms turn dead wood into food and medicine which is better than anything any tech start up has ever done
Academic writing-tip/recommendation (discipline agnostic): Have a summary figure.
It makes it a lot easier for the reviewers and editor to gauge your message and intention, and for readers to take the message you want them to take from your manuscript.

Worth noting that it takes *a LOT* to get science folks to make public denunciations like this. He is a serious threat and insurance companies will happily stop covering any/everything they can b/c of him.

Let’s see if his kids do this! Let’s put legislators’ families in these *great* situations!
Four USPS stamps marked Freedom, Liberty, Equality, and Justice forever.
Found some important stamps in my desk. I don’t like feeling that they’re turning into nostalgic collectibles.

It’s a good reminder we all have bad days and can still move forward to accomplish great things. Also, wasps=horrors.
Khanna: "Here we have a sitting cabinet member, Lutnick, who's all over the files as having a business relationship allegedly and personal relationship alleged after Epstein was convicted. He's allegedly lied about his relationship. And there's no consequence. We need to get real in this country."
we need to talk about that Ring Super Bowl ad
This Epstein drop is HUGE and utterly disgusting. I don’t see how this man is allowed to remain in office. Where are the evangelical leaders, the soccer moms, the folks stocking up on eggs, the farmers, the small business owners.
Decide. Who are you?
every epstein file drop underscores how elite power operates through shared socio-economic networks, regardless of people's ideological differences, populist posturing, or public feuds
Fantastic!
So sad she’s gone. RIP to a captivatingly hilarious legend!
