At the time of Maher’s detention, disability advocates warned that taking away Wael’s caregiver put his life at risk.
Wael died on Friday at age 30.

Grocery. An old-fashioned word. But a beautiful word.
Grocery prices were up 0.7 percent in December, the largest one-month gain since October 2022. They were up 2.4 percent from a year ago.

The way MAGA voters have isolated themselves into a media echo chamber is truly astonishing. I suspect religious childhood indoctrination is a root cause, as it effectively disables natural skepticism at an early age, and prevents development of epistemology.

U.S. military spending is set to hit a record $1 trillion.
Roughly half of defense spending goes to private contractors that routinely price-gouge the government.
Meanwhile, the Pentagon has failed seven straight audits.

One more thing about the Black Friday sales data—total money spent went up, but people bought fewer items. So the growth was driven by inflation, and nearly all of it was financed.

They used to mock Baltimore's Brandon Scott as a "DEI mayor" but now that homicide rates have plummeted they're just pretending he doesn't exist.
