Rudy Giuliani looks like a wax figure half melted from the sun

Nearly ONE-THIRD of children in rural Wisconsin rely on BadgerCare for health coverage.

Republicans plan to slash federal funding to pay for the MAGA Tax Scam for the ultra wealthy is a direct threat to the health of America's children.

This is really important for a lot of people to read, specifically in the context of “leftists” who defend Putin and Assad.

But it’s also, in my reading, part of the mindless binary adversarialism that infect politics across the board.

You’re with us or against us.

That’s dead, deadening politics

“We sound like a broken record but only because the records keep breaking,” said Gavin Schmidt, director of the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies, which monitors global temperatures. “They will continue to break until we get emissions under control.” www.nytimes.com/2025/01/10/c...

In theory- so close. What’s to stop big, rich, mega-polluting companies from buying up allowances in “disadvantaged areas” and running them to the ground?

New York looks poised to move ahead in the coming weeks with cap and invest, a major and long-promised plan to put a price on emissions.

can't get over the audacity of a company that's gotta be worth at least a billion paywalling its news articles

College campuses are a canary in a coal mine. They literally introduce the most powerful people in our society to the norms of adulthood.

If we tolerate sexual violence there, then we teach men in positions of power to tolerate it—and engage in it!—everywhere.

if you're reliant on platforms to make money, i'd strongly encourage you to learn to be light on your feet, not too dependent on any single platform to the extent that it's possible, and prepared to lose your account on someone's whim. (a lot of sex workers have been saying this for years and years)

Shoutout to the Los Angeles Times reporters who are doing essential journalism under very difficult circumstances.

They’ve dropped their paywall, but their ongoing coverage is a good reminder of why local newsrooms need support — and what we lose when those outlets are hollowed out.

Does ‘Eat The Rich’ include the Bridgertons?

Easy, breezy, beautiful, ERRATIC
