What's most amazing about this is the fact that the WSJ needed a “study” to figure it out.

The novel "Lolita" is a really valuable cultural artefact because within one sentence of anyone talking about it you can tell if their hard drive needs to be impounded

If you think that what ICE is doing is bad, you should see how many people the cops murder every year, then come to the realization that those two things are connected.

UPS has announced 78,000 job cuts since last year. Its CEO made $24M.

HP announced up to 6,000 layoffs in November. Its CEO made $21M.

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

We are all immigrants. Unless you came over on the Mayflower. I am an immigrant to Canada having grown up in the US. America was built by immigrants. Some people have forgotten that.

The Epstein emails should really end the debate over whether society should have billionaires. "Do you want there to be a class of people so powerful they can fuck your kids and no one will even try to do anything" seems like an easy sell if everyone in politics wasn't trying to get on their payroll

New Zealand generates huge volumes of waste and recovers only a tiny amount. A circular economy would be a way to redesign systems, cut emissions and build resilience. What would it take to get us there?

Marimar Martinez is a hero.

She was shot 5 times by ICE.

The agent told her to “do something b*tch” before opening fire.

He later bragged “5 shots, 7 holes”.

DHS tried to smear her reputation but video footage vindicated her.

Next week she will testify in Washington about ICE’s brutality.
