A new bill in Congress proposed by Morgan McGarvey of KY and Bonnie Coleman of NJ titled "The Young Adult Tax Credit Act" (HR 7547) would provide a basic income of $500/mo to everyone in the US age 18 to 24.

Would be nice to see Biden push this one for Gen Z.

If you don’t look backward, you can’t remind people how abysmally Trump dealt with the arrival of COVID-19 four years ago—that he bears significant responsibility for crashing the economy and would likely crash it again if confronted with another crisis.
Four Years Ago, Donald Trump Knew How Dangerous COVID Was—And Lied About It
He made life immeasurably worse for all Americans, and we can’t forget it.

Years ago I used online dating and spoke to a guy who described himself as a "quality driver". I thought he meant a job so asked what that involved and he just said he's good at driving. We ended up dating and he was in fact, an awful driver and I opted to drive where possible.

Like when people say “of course the media is focused on Bidens age what else should they talk about?” it’s this! It’s fucking this!
This would have been enough on its own not too long ago to kill someone’s campaign. Fuck all of this.

"I wish for impossible things. I'm very eager to be clear-headed, to continue having the joy for life that I have." That’s what one of the 72-year-olds says in a beautiful new photo project documenting 72-year-olds in our rapidly aging world.

Musk got really lucky in his "pedo guy" defamation case because the plaintiff had, unfortunately, chosen L. Lin Wood to represent him.

This plaintiff retained Mark Bankston, who previously gonged Alex Jones for $45m in a Sandy Hook case. 🍿

The Supreme Court's decision to hear former President Trump's immunity claim, and the timing of it, have enormous consequences--not just for Trump, but for the American political system, and for the court itself.
Will the timing of the Supreme Court's Trump case mean no trial before the election?
The court could have moved faster. It has historically done that in other big cases with political ramification.

Nearly every detail in the front-page NYT report on systemic rape as a weapon of war by Hamas on Oct. 7 is questionable. It was used to justify mass violence against people and children who were not even accused of rape, by people who never care about rape otherwise. theintercept.com/2024/02/28/n...

They…they knew about climate change fifty years ago and intentionally covered it up. They’re…upset about activists not letting them take the wheel on solving it?
The CEO of Exxon-Mobil also blames activists for climate inaction.

No, really:

"Frankly, society, and the activist—the dominant voice in this discussion—has tried to exclude the industry that has the most capacity and the highest potential for helping with some of the technologies."
