Just a reminder that George Conway is not fundraising right now to run against a MAGA republican.

He is fundraising to run against progressive Democrats.

🇫🇷🇻🇪 AGORA: Líder da extrema-direita francesa, Marine Le Pen condena ataque dos EUA contra a Venezuela.

Ela afirmou que, apesar das críticas a Maduro, a mudança de governo imposta por ação militar é inaceitável e que a soberania dos Estados é “inviolável e sagrada” e não pode ser relativizada.

I was at a cafeteria knitting and watching a CSI DVD on my laptop with earphones on a laptop when the communist senator who put an amendment in the national budget that allowed my college scholarship to be paid came over and said "oooh, you are using The Internet!"
Right folks. Feeling rather down at the moment so bringing back an oldie

that's still kind of a lot of deaths per week IMO!
It's remarkable how low COVID deaths have fallen in the last year. The 2024 summer wave peaked at 1,358 deaths per week; the 2025 summer wave peaked at 466 deaths per week.

Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up.

I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

The Brazilian government end of year message campaign is so upbeat and cute it took me a week to realize it's a petty as fuck "we won 😝" statement about Trump's tariffs. Even though it literally starts with the words "yeah, we won"

67 Senators could remove RFK Jr. today but there aren’t 67 Senators who care about Americans’ lives, health, or wellbeing. Babies will die. Our leaders hate us.

I feel like that makes it worse, bc it underscores that it's not just (using just loosely) RFK Jr randomly being a conspiracy addled eugenicist wackjob -- this catastrophe was coordinated and had the backing of the conservative legal movement
It is utterly catastrophic that RFK Jr. plans to end CDC recommendations for most childhood vaccines.

It’s a betrayal of science, ethics, compassion, and the people of the United States.

And it was also a specific goal of Project 2025 (page 254).

simultaneously a good news story on McBride's deftness and a real shattering account of how many Democrats still need to get punted into a hole in the ocean

Sarah McBride knew some Democrats would betray trans people, so she lobbied Republicans

When they woke me up in covid ICU after the ventilator coma, I spent the next 3 days awake, not even a nap. At some point I started to hallucinate Beyoncé, but I had read about ICU delirium and decided to watch the hallucinations as entertainment, because I knew they were not real and I was bored.
My bio mom is in the hospital right now for a COPD flare up and one of my spicy medical takes is that we have a lot research about how sleep deprivation is horrible for health and recovery but somehow this is totally ignored in clinical situations and waking you up every two hours is fine

I think this needs to be combined with an article in WaPo maybe a few years back about white people moving out of school districts if they become "too" Asian cause they didn't want to compete academically with them.
The fact that it at least anecdotally seems to be a semi-regular practice to tell white people a minority got the job in order to soften the blow of rejection really should put the elite woke panic into perspective.

I'm still stuck on this. I texted my friends who are also studying Administrative Law and we're all on a circle of WHAT ARE THEY CITING A WEBSITE INSTEAD OF A LAW
Amazing!

Sen. Lujan gets Brendan Carr to claim that the FCC is "not an independent agency," pointing out that the FCC's website actually says IT IS an independent agency and wondering if the website should be changed because of Carr's declaration.

Isn't there a law that defines that? In Brazil this is defined by law. Regulatory agencies are, by the Constitution, administratively & financially autonomous entities, created by specific law that establishes their inner working. You'd only ask to discover if the other person KNOWS.
And guess what?

The FCC immediately changed the website to state that the agency is not independent right after Carr's comments!
