But step back and look at the machinery and you see how sturdy this media/WH infrastructure is. If they want to make a humiliating Democratic scandal the biggest story in the country, they can do it. Dems who think it'll go away if they "win" with local media are going to lose.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has stated that the 1918 flu pandemic was caused by a lab virus from vaccine research, a defective influenza vaccine. Let’s analyze what a lie this is. First, in 1918, 107 years ago, virology was in its infancy

It's very curious that a thoroughly debunked cause of rising autism rates is driving government health policy, while one that has some evidence and is a profit center for the fossil fuel industry is just... never mentioned.
Almost like there might be profit in stoking culture wars

I appreciate what @juliusgoat.bsky.social is doing here, but I am so sick of having to debunk the self-pitying complaints of entitled white men. Grow up. Hell, man up.
Fact | You can't write something predicated in the utterly ludicrous assumption that white men are being excluded from publishing unless you are racist.

Painted cycle lanes are the non-smoking sections of today's urban landscape.

Both recognize a problem and the harms it causes, but are designed without the will or imagination required to implement a real solution.

Pope Leo said in a Christmas Eve sermon that the story of Jesus being born in a stable because there was no room at an inn should remind Christians that refusing to help the poor and strangers today is tantamount to rejecting God himself. For @reuters.com

Like if you’re rich you can actually physically fly to the places people are suffering and see the human stain on your soul, you can talk to experts about how to remedy it, you can change the world and you’re lecturing people because they sent you a gif of Kermit the Frog vomiting, GROW UP

This what true alphas do: they support, they encourage, they accompany, and they provide...love and kindness foremost. And when you're a dad that sometime means being there for your kids in the important moments and thanking your lucky stars they agreed to let you in for them.

48. That exception of course is the fossil fuel producer. They are hostile to energy productivity for the same reason John Henry didn't like the steam shovel. They can't compete with it. Wins for consumers come at their expense. Wins for the climate come at their expense.

44. I've spent my entire adult career in the energy industry. As a consultant, as a manufacturer, as a power plant developer/owner/operator and now as a legislator. There is something really optimistic about the moment we're in that pundits like Yglesias said was impossible 20 yrs ago.

The Abundance movement often points to environmental groups as the obstacles to building. But who actually files the lawsuits blocking projects? It’s not environmental groups. It’s been lawyered-up HOAs protecting property values all along. Regulation by litigation is the problem.

The Epstein stuff is such a good example of how elite evil works. The guy had zero actual skills outside of a sort of charm that was completely amoral, and zero capacity for feeling shame. Exceptionally greedy men sought his company because of his behavior, not despite it
