The extraordinary damage that this putrid person causes with his anti-vax ideology is one of the most insidious parts of this Administration.

*But separate from that,* it will never not be funny that RFK Jr.—who looks visibly unhealthy and has a literal brainworm—considers himself a health expert.
RFK Jr on what he'll eat during the Super Bowl: "I am on a carnivore diet so I just eat meat and ferments, and I'm very happy with that. So I'm probably going to have yogurt."

A certain thread in the Valve subreddit today reminds me that there is still a very vocal group of misogynistic incels who really hate the idea that a woman might be fighting for their rights.

They can’t fathom that a woman suing a gaming company might actually be good for them if she wins.

It says a lot that the GOP think being obese is worse than being a rap**t.
Worth noting that this response actually concedes that what Pritzker said is true.

This galaxy is VERY tiny—much much smaller than our own Milky Way—& incredibly distant. But we can see it AND distinguish its shape!

How?

The light we see from it is from SO LONG AGO that the Universe was MUCH smaller at the time: we see it as it was when it was close enough to us to look big!! 🤯
This is what the most distant confirmed galaxy looks like. The light we're receiving was emitted when the Universe was ~15x smaller in linear size than today, and right now it's ~30 billion light-years away from us. The light was emitted when the Universe was <300 million years old. Pretty amazing!
News from the edge of the visible universe:

JWST has confirmed this galaxy, MoM-z14, as the most distant one yet studied. We're seeing it as it was 13.5 billion years ago, 98% of the way back to the beginning of time.

(MoM stands for "miracle or mirage.") 🧪🔭

This will be like gas prices and he will just lie and tell everyone all drugs are under $2 a gallon.
📈TrumpRx price for acid reflux drug Protonix💊= $200, with no generic options offered. Generic version of this common acid reflux pantoprazole drug at Walmart and Safeway= just $10-12. Price inflation => 18x. Don’t fall for the scam.

I'll never forgive the US media for thinking their job was to cover an exciting horse race rather than tell us the truth about the candidates.

It’s all lies. All of it. From every company.

And we all know Musk is doing the exact same thing.

Imagine being this inhumane and cruel as this DHS employee. Imagine being the neighbor of this DHS person who is truly evil.

I hope they eventually get names and every one of their friends, family, and neighbors knows exactly who they are living with.
Metry and her husband of 4 years go to DHS to get their I-130 in motion. "Good news" a DHS employee told them, the form to start her naturalization was approved.

DHS employee asks the husband to follow him through a secure door. When it locks behind him, ICE detains his wife to deport her.
EXCLUSIVE: Terez Metry was 13 when her family fled to Tennessee from Egypt in 2011. Then, they left her behind. She only recently discovered she had an order of removal from 2011. But she was following the legal path to citizenship. On Monday, at a routine DHS meeting, Metry was detained.

Reading Valve hardware delays b/c of RAM pricing — When the AI bubble pops, I’m not so convinced it’s going to be this massive blow to the economy.

It feels like AI is holding back a lot of industry and there is going to be a breath of fresh air once all of that hardware frees up for innovation.

Let’s just get it out of the way. No matter how popular this story about this gutter racist gets:

as i keep saying, the things to do to secure elections are to volunteer to work the polls or to serve as an observer, & to pressure your *state representatives* to take steps to further secure voting locations and ballots. you should also learn about how election administration works in your area.

My expectation is that before this meeting, Trump pulls the security clearance from every single democrat invited to the meeting.
Whistleblower puts Tulsi on notice that he will go to Congress himself if her office doesn’t respond by Friday.

Douthat proves again and again that it takes no skill, intellect, or expertise in a matter to become a NYT opinion writer.
👀 Apparently, Ross Douthat invited Seth Harp to debate him on Douthat's "Interesting Times" NYT podcast. Harp says that the episode was recorded, Douthat got crushed, and RD/NYT decided not to publish it.

What? x.com/sethharpesq/...

And RFK will do nothing to stop this. Because it will require him admitting he was wrong.

He would rather these kids die than do that.

Dear giant SUV with the “choose life” license plate: you just blasted through a school zone and then sped up to at least 20+ MPH over speed limit on residential streets.

While on your phone.

Fuck you and your hypocrisy.

1. Build huge subscriber base by telling them their $ supports democracy.
2. Don’t establish other revenue sources.
3. Rug-pull subscribers by pushing opinion side to the right.
4. Subscribers leave, revenue falls.
5. Enact crippling newsroom cuts.
