Imagine dreaming of a world where medical science could provide the right care at the right time thanks to increasingly accurate analysis... And then wanting to do eugenics against a group of people instead of helping them live the fullest life. As should be the goal of medicine for all people
The Trump administration, from top to bottom, is filled with spiteful malicious bullies who insist that they're innocent aggrieved victims.
@bsky.app David's account has been an unresolved problem for a while, WTF?
The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals is out with a new (very bad) decision, and it's a doozy.
The Fifth Circuit says that Texas can require the Ten Commandments in classrooms. But somehow it gets worse.

TINA SMITH: Secretary Kennedy, a trillion dollars in cuts according to the CBO, 7 million people losing their health insurance because of the Trump administration. That's not debatable
RFK Jr: There is nobody legally enrolled in Medicaid who is losing coverage
SMITH: That is just not true!
College Where Charlie Kirk Was Killed Revokes Graduation Speaker's Invite Utah Valley University was thrilled that Sharon McMahon, a best-selling author, would speak at its graduation. And then her old posts resurfaced. Listen • 5:02 min
You'll never believe what this speaker--now cancelled thanks to "free speech" warriors like TPUSA & Sen. Mike Lee--posted about Charlie Kirk.
She said she was "gutted" by his murder. She described it as "horrific" and said it "should have never happened." And then she went on to post Kirk's words.
RFK Jr: "President Trump has a different way of calculating percentages. If you have a $600 drug and you reduce it to $10, that's a 600% reduction."
If you “consult articles and books” written by someone else you are effectively appointing an expert, chaps.
Truth continues to have an unfortunate liberal bias.
Are the women back there somewhere? Yes, I think I see them.
RFK Jr. just said that immigration is to blame for the outbreaks of vaccine-preventable diseases in the U.S., not him.
"A new poll conducted April 10-14 finds 55% of U.S. adults say the House should vote to impeach Trump. 37% oppose, 8% are unsure. A surprising percentage of both Republicans and Trump’s own 2024 voters say they would support impeachment if a vote were held today."

Washington Post Editorial Board headline: “The Texas gerrymander freak out. What’s happening in Texas is not a threat to democracy.”
Washington Post Editorial Board headline: “Virginia plunges America deeper into the gerrymandering abyss. The redistricting scheme was always a power grab by Democrats. Voters went along with it.”
The Washington Post Editorial Board was fine with Republicans gerrymandering in Texas.
But when Democrats responded in Virginia, it’s a “power grab” that “plunges America deeper into the gerrymandering abyss.”
You can’t do that to rural voters! What are they, black people? bsky.app/profile/coll...
I hate to hand it to Hakeem Jeffries, but "maximum warfare, everywhere, all the time" needs to be the Dems' guiding principle for at least the next 6 to 8 years.
"Maximum warfare, everywhere, all the time"
If Jeffries wants to join Team Fight, he's very welcome.
The European Union has approved a €90 billion loan to Ukraine, as well as the 20th round of sanctions against Russia. The package is to be split 60/30 for military aid and budget assistance respectively.
The thing is you have a Secretary of Defense who quite literally does not think germs are real, he explicitly rejects germ theory
The question to ask isn't "why did pete do (x)," it's "why did roger wicker vote to confirm a guy who literally doesn't think germs are real"
the two positions i hold simultaneously based on my mood
optimist: things can't continue in politics like this

"The average IQ in Somalia hovers around 70, and that's the threshold for mentally handicapped ... they're a net drain on the society" -- even by MAGA standards, the unvarnished racism of this interview of Rep. Brandon Gill by Benny Johnson is breathtaking
this is why Dems need to go as hard as possible on reforms and actually fixing things rather than kick the can, because "people will remember how bad things were and not put these folks back in charge" is a demonstrably false statement
Is that bad? Seems bad
Short of fusion coming online; wind, solar, and SMRs are the future of power bc you can scale by region and demand w/ minimal impact to the environment. Only the largest metropoles and compute projects will be able to justify large reactors. Hydrocarbons probably have another 30-50 years left.
NEW: A US settlement/resolution that enables Iran to control traffic through the strait would represent a major US defeat and set a precedent w/ implications for global trade, given the strait’s role as an energy chokepoint. (1/6)

So I’m gonna say something mean here but if you find comfort in the computer as your therapist over a human, this may indicate some other issues and you should go see a real therapist.
Being anti-middle management is one of the dumbest positions that smart people take. I'm in an organisation that slashed middle managers and nothing gets done because execs are swamped with paperwork and there's no resilience when someone senior resigns
A screenshot of a thread on X (formerly Twitter). The original post is by Matt Walsh (@MattWalshBlog) and reads: "Gay surrogacy and gay adoption are predicated on the idea that gay men (or women) have a 'right' to become parents. This idea is not only morally insane but also logically incoherent. It’s exactly like jumping off a building and claiming that you have the right to fly. Nobody has the right to defy the laws of nature. Where would such a right even originate? Two men cannot be parents. It’s impossible. Doesn’t matter how they feel or what they want. It cannot be. The only 'right' at issue here is the right of the child. And the child has a right to be raised by a mother and a father, not two men masquerading as mother and father." Jenna Ellis (@realJennaEllis) replies: "This same logic is the reason Obergefell should be overturned. Two men do not have a 'right' to be married either." Matt Walsh (@MattWalshBlog) replies to Jenna Ellis: "Absolutely" The bottom of the screenshot shows the timestamp: 1:28 PM · Apr 19, 2026.
All the transphobic pick me gays will have it coming when they're done with us.
We told you so.
“Buy our home security package named after someone who was utterly destroyed by a back door break-in he didn’t see coming because he was focused solely on the front door.”
All the apps in like 10 years will be named "Voldemort" and "Avada Kedavra" because we live in a nightmare.
