I just found out that around 20% of the neanderthal genome still exists today in living people!!
No individual person has more than 3 or 4% but we don't all have the same bits. If you add up all the bits we've found, about a fifth of the Neanderthal genome is still present on earth today.

Trump pardoned a dozen drug traffickers, bypassed & ignored DOJ input, pardoned dozens of Republican elected officials, business cronies, lawyers, friends, donors and campaign officials. Promised to pardon J6ers who beat cops. I don’t care about Joe pardoning his last son.

Those saying Joe Biden’s pardon of his son gives “permission” to Trump to issue wild pardons forget that Trump never asks or needs permission to do anything wild.

It’s kind of incredible how long we’ve been forced to accept social media platforms that are openly hostile to their own users, suppress political content, and throttle third party links.

“Don’t feed the trolls” also extends to bad opinion pieces in papers of record.
They run them bc people react to them the most.
If we stop linking to bad columns and instead post thinkers we find valuable (& generate convo around it), incentives change.
It’s not easy and takes constant practice!

Does anyone really believe Trump wouldn’t have abused the pardon power if Biden hadn’t pardoned Hunter?
Trump’s going to be unhinged either way.

i think this understates the case, given that the DOJ and courts both went beyond their normal lengths to throw the book at hunter biden for reasons that were entirely political and biden has every reason to believe a trump DOJ would double down on those charges if they were still outstanding
I don't love it either, but I'm not sure how you tell a man that he should let his only surviving son rot in prison to respect norms, institutions, and the rule of law, when the country you devoted your life to serving just pretty comprehensively voted they don't give a shit about any of that.

Trump is still running all his businesses while selling random junk. He has a publicly traded company, and he can easily be bribed. He once again will be in violation of the Constitution day 1. Corporate media should do their damn jobs and focus on it, instead of sanewashing him and his nominees.

Democrats make a mistake by fixating just on Joe Rogan. It is about a mentality that going on a Sunday show with 50,000 viewers is more important than talking to a YouTube influencer with 3 million.
