I've given it some thought, and I think the funniest possible outcome is if they somehow decide to impeach Bill Clinton again

People who weaponize this dont ask “how am i supposed to explain school lunch debt to my children?” Or “how am i supposed to explain how pregnant people are dying of sepsis from miscarriages to my children?”
‘How am I supposed to explain this to my children?’ is one of the laziest copouts that bigots have been allowed to weaponize against social progress.

“I don’t know.“ is perfectly acceptable in any situation and “Let’s find out together.” is one of the most precious ways to engage with your child.

The hits keep coming. “The departments that won’t be accepting Ph.D. students now include art history, cinema and media studies, classics, comparative literature, East Asian languages and civilizations, English language and literature, Germanic studies, linguistics, Middle Eastern studies…”
More UChicago Ph.D. Programs Will Pause Admissions
The arts and humanities dean said “nearly all” faculty leaders preferred “a broader pause for the division.” Some social sciences programs also aren’t accepting new students.

Well, if you were wondering exactly which parts of history the Trump regime is going to purge from the Smithsonian museums, they've helpfully listed it out. It's exactly as fascistic as you've feared.

President Trump Is Right About the Smithsonian
The National Museum of African American History and Culture debuted a series to educate people on “a society that privileges white people and whiteness” —

there's "charitable interpretation" and there's "being a mark" and the inability or refusal to distinguish between the two is practically a credential in some circles
The adamant elite refusal to call bullshit is a big part of How We Got Here.

The prevailing cultural attitude for years is you must not, under any circumstances, treat anything as bad faith. You are obligated to find some reasonable idea and engage with that, even if you distort to get there.

The root problem is anti-socialism, but it's telling how they're mobilizing ageism here.

The notion that people in their late twenties / early thirties are too young to develop city policy is absurd.

An interesting subtext here. We do indeed spend vast sums on our military. So the idea here appears to be that without "forever wars" we need to occupy our own cities.
Comer: "We're gonna support doing this in other cities if it works out in Washington DC. We spend a lot on our military. Our military has been in many countries around the world for the past two decades walking the streets trying to reduce crime. We need to focus on the big cities in America now."

because they don't tell you in the head or sub-head: the brand is DermaRite. there are specific products & batch numbers in the article
Hand soaps are now being recalled because they can cause serious infection including sepsis and death.

In “healthy” individuals with minor cuts they will likely cause localized infection, but in immune compromised people it could be fatal.

Truly the worst timeline:
Hand soaps recalled nationwide over potential for 'serious and life-threatening infections'
A number of soap products sold nationwide are being recalled over concerns that using them could result in "serious and life-threatening infections."

Being right wing is so hard bc you’re not allowed to acknowledge any actual phenomena that shape the world, so when you try to describe something you just end up sounding like if a person speaking in tongues worshipped the internet instead of god

The funniest part is that his entire driving force for every decision he’s made in the last ten years is to become the most liked, most popular little birthday boy of all time. And it’s literally made him despised around the world.
