Frank Gehry's first big project in New York City was this building. I worked there for ~7 years. The place was insane. The walls curved, and came together at odd angles. The rooms were the strangest sizes. You'd find a balcony or whole other wing to a floor where you'd least expect it. It ruled. RIP

“The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the convinced Communist, but people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction and the distinction between true and false no longer exist."

Judge Immergut quotes James Madison from the
Records of the Federal Convention of 1787: “A standing
military force, with an overgrown Executive will not long be safe companions to liberty. The
means of defence [against] foreign danger, have been always the instruments of tyranny at
home.”

Another ICE "assault" case unravels. Border Patrol and ICE are arresting US citizens and then after they find out that they are US citizens, they are charging them with "assault" to justify their actions. This is clearly DHS policy at this point. We've seen it repeatedly now.

In Victorian 4ngland people ate all natural food, no pesticides, hormones, or plastic. They got plenty of exercise, and their immune systems got exposed to all sorts of interesting germs.

Life expectancy was about 33.

Goodness, this is all so stupid. We f'd around, now for the finding out.
WTF is this - why is NPR quoting some obscure health policy guy from a think tank both sides-ing miasma theory?
