“Sleep and circadian experts generally advocate for permanent Standard Time… Change between Standard Time and DST is not simply loss/gain of sleep, but rather misalignment between circadian and social clocks…”

If men with guns and masks tried to pull me out of my car, I'd fight back. Courts should reject any claims by the government that this is aggression by the person being detained, resisting arrest, or that they're a flight risk.

In order for the United States to become a party to the International Criminal Court and have our officials be subject to trial at The Hague, the US Senate would need to ratify the Rome statute by a two-thirds vote. Let’s start running on that.

Yes, because our training was based in the idea that people’s depression, anxiety, etc. is based on faulty cognition, and what we are seeing now is that these symptoms are the rational response to the environment we find ourselves in.

Easy to mock rapture folks but I wonder if part of human nature is that it is easier to imagine the world ending than yourself ending & the world going on w/o you. There've been tons of these cults over history & the anti-nuke & climate horror folks are similar in some ways.

New rule: no criticizing the way others choose to resist unless you have a better, actionable idea and kind, constructive feedback. New ideas are good! Performative contrarianism is useless.

The idea that we can "easily" overthrow the regime in Iran is a fantasy of people that have never served. Afghanistan is back in the hands of the Taliban after 20 years of slaughter. Iraq still isn't peaceful. Libya is a war zone that's been in civil war since we dropped bombs. History is screaming!

Avoid the violence/nonviolence debate. It’s a trap.
The only thing that matters is what actions lead to more justice and less harm.
Inaction and complicity in the face of brutal oppression is the worst form of violence. Never forget it.

I have a lot of respect for her and some of the things that she’s done, but she’s part of the reason why we’re here today. She should’ve stepped down during Obama’s administration. People were urging her to. The refusal to give up power when you should is a problem on both sides.
