Whenever I see men complain about the male loneliness crisis or unique emotional/psychological issues faced by men, it’s very clear that they just don’t see women as full people capable of experiencing the exact same emotions they do

This is your daily reminder that reading fiction helps you develop as a person and reinforces your ability to empathise with people, so no, fiction isn’t a waste of time. On the contrary, reading fiction makes you more human.

I am having a hard time reconciling "Charlie Kirk was a fierce advocate of open dialogue and free expression" with "we must identify and persecute everyone who is insufficiently mournful"
After Charlie Kirk's death, teachers and professors nationwide fired or disciplined over social media posts

though i don’t want to downplay how magical this is—i agree—but i don’t think it has to be unique. i think people are capable of great things even without profit incentives! in fact being freed from economic precarity would probably increase the production of art and lots of pro-social behaviors
“Wikipedia is this economic anomaly. In many ways, it’s sort of magical that people will just volunteer without explicit economic incentives to create artifacts that are meant to share knowledge with everyone in the world”

I've seen folks talk about how "in four years" they'll be able to get back to their planned projects and I really don't think that's going to work out. People & projects losing funding now will not be able to hit pause and come back once funding is restored. Hard-won progress & capacity will be lost
I worry that not enough of a big deal is being made about how long-term the devastation of these budget cuts to our scientific and health agencies will be, beyond the absolute ruin they will cause in the acute period.

Do I understand right that the Fifth Circuit's position is that a public library operated by the government can censor speech it doesn't like but a social media platform operated by a private entity cannot
En banc Fifth Circuit overrules decades of precedent and holds that there is no First Amendment right to receive information in a public library.
