Unbelievable. This defense of Franco is in the Wall Street Journal, calling him “the best dictator.”
Meanwhile, a professor from University of Wisconsin is parroting Vox lines and saying that Pedro Sánchez is the most evil politician in modern times. Buddy, you’ve got Donald Trump in your backyard!

An Oregon pilot program giving cash to homeless youths sees a staggering reduction in homelessness. The program gave participants $1,000 cash payments each month for two years, and at the end of the project's first phase, 91% of participants reported being in stable housing.

We just launched a new series called Alaska Survival Kit, your guide to making the most of life in the 49th state. Think NPR's Life Kit, but with more advice for Alaska things like wildlife encounters and getting outside.

Our first story: Three tips for embracing winter, even if you hate the cold.

I attended a talk by a scientist at a Chinese University and realized that all the background climate data that she used came from the US (CO₂ Keeling Curve, global temperature time series, etc.). Although China funds a lot of research, the destruction of US science will affect science globally.

She needs to atone and makeup for the harm she has caused before asking for forgiveness
If Greene wants forgiveness, that is between her and her God. But that doesn’t mean she deserves political power, let alone our respect. www.ms.now/opinion/msnb...
You don't have to forgive Marjorie Taylor Greene

The "jokes" and general callousness in response to the Epst*in emails just affirms my belief that the gulf between survivors of sexual violence and those who aren't / or otherwise do not recognize their experiences as violent is WIDE.

The new batch of Epstein emails makes me ponder the folks deeply outraged by trans people who want to do sports because they think it harms women. Decades of hard proof that cis men who abuse their power to harm women in the worst ways are the actual threat can alter this counterfactual obsession.
