Just gonna once again tap my “Banning actual porn is ALSO bad, y’all” sign

Yes, defining sex education & any acknowledgement of the existence of queer & trans folks as “porn” is very bad

But banning actual sexually explicit media that people consume primarily bc it turns them on is ALSO BAD

Home insurance is supposed to be a safety net for people. But as disasters like wildfires increase in scope and severity, insurers are cutting back coverage and raising rates.

We need public insurance that works to protect people, not profits. Here's how:

We must reimagine our disaster risk finance system so it reduces exposure and provides protection fairly.

Important study that demonstrates the danger of “false balance” reporting on misinformation.

“These results suggest that political misinformation should be understood as part and parcel of the current wave of radical right populism, and its opposition to liberal democratic institution.” 🧪
Misinformation isn't random - it's strategic. 🧵

In the first cross-national comparative study, we examine 32M tweets from politicians.

We find that misinformation is not a general condition: it is driven by populist radical right parties.

Red state life. Over 20 years of Republican majority rule in Missouri means that three days after one snowstorm major roads are still not plowed and safe. MODOT says they are short 200 plow drivers. MO has lowest state employee pay in the country. These clowns can’t handle basic governance. #moleg
