We don't have the disability education infrastructure to support a growing number of kids who are going to be disabled because their parents didn't get them vaccines against illnesses that can lead to the development of disabilities.

I’ve seen this dynamic at our law school (and beyond) and it’s very puzzling to me. Sadly, no longer surprising.

As a political scientist, I really appreciated how well they did politics on that show.

Thats just incorrect.
A couple of years ago = 2010-2021
A few years ago = 2000-2021
About 10 years ago = after 1990

We need to establish an acceptable proper timeline for the late 20th/early 21st C.

* 'Last year' = 2023-2025
* 'A couple of years ago' = after Lockdown
* 'A few years ago' = between 2004 and Lockdown
* 'About ten years ago' = 1994-2014

doing a quick lit review and wrote something along the lines of "this was published in 1994 so it is over 20 years old now" and then realised my maths error and did the oblig. crumble into dust.

The end goal of Grok sexual harassment is to make women afraid to be visible. It’s a punishment for daring to exist in a way the perpetrators can’t control. There’s no one solution to this, because the problem isn’t just technological. It’s cultural. It’s misogyny. This is just one expression of it.

These guys are complete incompetents in all the ways that matter, but they do understand data politics.

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), run by Oz and his boss, RFK Jr., will no longer require physicians to report vaccination rates.

Instead, they plan to start having doctors report if they’ve discussed “alternative” vaccine schedules.

How else can professors prove "merit" besides SAT scores? Wrong answers only. I'll go first: ability to do sixth-grade geometry homework (two professors in my house fail)

Yep. Many cities in Latin Europe have major avenues with this configuration.

Sehr kreativ, hier den Slogan “Alice für Deutschland“ statt der Nazi-Parole “Alles für Deutschland“ zu verwenden, nachdem Björn Höcke für deren Verwendung bereits zweimal verurteilt wurde.

Klingt ja sehr ähnlich. Absichtlich oder nicht, wer weiß das schon. Plausible deniability.

In 2026, we are taking back our science. You don’t have to love all our tactics, but please trust me when I say @standupforscience.bsky.social is on the right side of history and we will remain so.

The original call out remains: GET IN, DORKS!

Or he cooked it and then cut into it immediately without letting it rest, and all the juices poured out onto the plate. But tbh it doesn’t look like much of a steak, even if he did mistreat it.
