I asked a woman on the street for directions. She was very helpful but as I walked away I realized it was Liv Tyler.

Men are not constantly being told “you’re bad,” they are constantly being told “LEFT WING SJWS THINK YOU’RE BAD” by conservative propaganda. There’s a huge difference.
I have two sons, and I don't think I've ever seen messaging going "Don't be a boy" or "YOU'RE BAD."
Sure looks like that's in "I heard someone say that they heard..." territory, rather than actual direct experience.
Also worth noting, the main message from manosphere influencers is "YOU'RE BAD."

It's a brutal time for young men, and to be raising one. The primary message they now is get is "YOU'RE BAD" without any meaningful attempt to offer healthy pathways beyond "Don't be a boy."
Absolutely perfect time for right wing monsters to sweep in with shitty answers.

Real Genius was a formative movie for me. The best movie about physics and physicists is a raunchy 80’s comedy. RIP Val

One of those "I bought this before Elon went crazy" stickers but for your Columbia diploma
The president of Columbia agreed to Trump's demands to purge all academic freedom re Palestine but then privately said she'd slow walk them, which immediately leaked to Bari Weiss's outlet, so then the board purged her too

I think punditry would be a lot healthier if people made the case for their policies and position on the merits first rather than framing everything they advocate for as a good electoral strategy. 90% of the time, it's what they support on the merits, so just make that case.

We have had nearly two decades of panic about Free Speech on Campus and not a single case, not even the ones they made up, were as bad as what's happening now
This is the text of the email just sent to hundreds of international students telling them that their visas have been revoked due to activism or social media posts.

Yes. If DHS can barge in, say your visa was revoked, be told you have a green card, say it's revoked too, and then disappear you so that neither your lawyer nor your family can find you, then all the guardrails are gone. There is no policy, practice, or law protecting anyone.

In Zanzibar I saw a woman wearing a full everything-but-the-eyes burqa. She was also wearing a hardhat and a reflective vest and working at a construction site.

Sort of funny that an administration obsessed with cost-cuts wants to expand Guantanamo. It’s by far the most expensive prison in the world, costing *13 million* per detainee *per year*.

Congress writes the laws and controls the purse. If executive orders are law and DOGE controls the purse, then congress is just an advisory body.

It doesn’t make sense for the tech market to fall because of a Chinese AI competitor. What makes more sense is that some people learned about the upcoming tariffs to Taiwan a day early.

Last night I had a dream that involved the existence of “The Thin Green Line,” which was somehow like Terrence Malick’s take on The Grinch.

Democrats will often look at something that doesn’t poll well and think “oh no, better move away from that!” but they’re getting their role backwards. parties influence public opinion. if you’re purely reactive, you’re just letting the GOP frame every debate.
the lesson of the election isn’t “we should give up on trans rights,” it’s that the GOP took an issue that negatively impacted almost no one and made it a headliner. why would it help to surrender on an issue if they can create a grievance from thin air?
