This is the only politician I've ever given $ to.

She is so touching

“You can vote..to end this conflict & show you..care about putting America first, like you claim. Or you can vote to put Trump's ego first.”
@duckworth.senate.gov
served a #CupOfJoe full of truth & honor. No Repubs, nor Fetterman listened. History will remember.

Outstanding!

Why not compete on helping the poor? Missing ingredient here must be "thinking the stripper likes you"

Like running a pigbutchering scam on yourself. Your ego scams you and pays the stripper

Outstanding! You should be so proud...and are inspiring others.

Unfortunately, this is not an isolated story. These things are prevalent in a lot of homes. Women really get a very, very unfair shake, even in this country.
Nobody takes it seriously.

1/ Thibaut Arpinon is a big fan of open science and is *doing something* about it. Here is a list of economics journals that accept registered reports: Development & experimental econ are well-represented, and a twitter promise for JPE:Micro.

Behind Trump’s Public Bravado on the War, He Grapples With His Own Fears The president’s impulsive style has never been tested in a sustained military conflict, and he’s been ruminating on Jimmy Carter’s failure in Iran.

Props to the WSJ, they managed to pack almost every Trump decision-making pathology into a single story. It’s all here:

1) Short attention span
2) Impulsive behavior
3) Knowledge deficits
4) Gambling for resurrection
5) Belief in the madman theory

Perfect 2mins on the hard fact that 1-1 use of tech in schools around 2010 was bad for learning

Pancreatic cancer mRNA vaccine shows lasting results in an early trial Scientists caution that more research is needed, but nearly all of the patients who responded to the personalized vaccine are still alive six years later.

My father survived a year with pancreatic cancer but it was a year of terrible suffering. This is very encouraging news.

Brilliant!

Insane, insightful 2023 Atlantic article about luxury weddings.

An interesting point: there are 13,000 weddings each year in the US costing more than $1m.

Why not give the $ to needy people?

They do! (Sort of) cost is mostly labor on infrastructure (many immigrants)

The Iranian Speaker is reporting about Trump more truthfully than most legacy MSM.
Let that sink in

LA-area politicians cross paths w/Scientology-connected groups all the time because Scientology is headquartered there.

I found no evidence of policy favoritism.

Getting tired of legacy media ripping us off. What gives, @nytimes.com ?

This is perfect. He said nothing

Proud of my hometown
Many savages live there

Yes, please!

Yes!

With an undergraduate degree in philosophy a career in tech may have looked unexpected. But that study gave me better tools than many of my peers. These days a lot of my tech work involves deeply philosophical problems around intentions and meaning. Never underestimate the humanities. #FreelanceLife

"The food is tasteless and there’s not nearly enough and they’re hungry all the time," Erskine-Valentine said. "That kind of breaks your heart."

Our own sailors are starving

Very Senior Officer Visits. Has only 3 questions.

1) How's the food?

2) Boots fit?

3) Mail getting through?

The last one is the one that really matters. Mail affects morale. Lack of mail means morale is in the shitter and that you will lose.

That's why, in the past, mail always got through

These Trump admins are so bad at testifying. Don't they get media training?

Bisignano is bragging about chatbots. IRS chatbots are *terrible*

1/ The threat if high net worth flight from taxes, imo, is a classic example of a not-credible threat based on anger v deliberation.

Similar to teens who are mad at their parents and run away from home...but make it back for dinner and stay

Exactly

Some wonderful news

Once hunted to near extinction, humpback whales are rebounding

"We've stopped killing them," said wildlife photographer Chris Fallows. "Since the late 1960s,the population that was reduced to just a couple of thousand animals has come back to several hundred thousand animals"

IMPORTANT: Under federal law, it's very hard, at times near-impossible, to sue federal law enforcement officers for civil rights violations. But legal theorists have said for decades that there is a possible way to sue under state law instead.

This is a VERY big test case.
