On the one hand, this woman dying is a tragedy, on the other hand, “dying in childbirth” is a problem that we had mostly solved in the west because of these things called hospitals

This is actually precisely the problem.

People find the beauty in poetry and art, but not in calculus or physics.

And this then reflects in our cultural values and pedagogy.
I agree that college students shouldn't be forced to study chemistry or economics (fake, doesn't matter) but they should be forced to study poetry and art (real, makes life worth living).

one way the media really fucked us over when it came to trump was portraying him as a big-time, powerful exec who had a ton of world class executive experience, when in reality he was an LLC king who got most of what he had by ripping off people he hired to do the work and cheating on his taxes
he went from having never held any office at any level straight to the presidency. he’s never even run a very large company — all of the trump org scams have been tightly held with a pretty small number of actual employees, they’ve always farmed everything to contractors who they then ripped off

CONFIRMED: Eileen Higgins, a Democrat, will be the new mayor of Miami.

She'll be the city's first Democratic mayor since the 1990s. She flipped the office from Republicans, and does so easily. She leads the DeSantis-endorsed Emilio González 59/41 right now with most ballots counted.

Oh yeah, get this guy on the stump.
Trump: "You can give up certain products. You could give up pencils. Because under the China policy, every child can get 37 pencils. They only need 1 or 2. They don't need that many. You always need steel. You don't need 37 dolls for your daughter. 2 or 3 is nice. So we're doing things right."

Last month, a former regional director for U.S. John Hickenlooper called a consultant hired by state Sen. Julie Gonzales, Hickenlooper’s new primary challenger. He warned of blacklisting if the campaign continued — but a “guaranteed” contract if it didn’t. www.denverpost.com/2025/12/09/c...

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

I feel like it's really obvious and in fact has been discussed ad nauseam that one of the main drivers of Gen Z's dalliance with the right, such that it exists at all, is that conservatism was *not* perceived as the dominant ideology being pushed by power structures
Happening now: Texas leaders announcing a rollout of a statewide program to put TPUSA chapters in high schools and colleges across the state. Gov. Abbott adds that schools that stand in the way should be reported to the Texas Education Agency.

Listen I hate Biden as much as the next guy, but for real reasons like appointing Merrick Garland or sending bombs to Israel. Every time someone says shit like "Biden promised he would be a one term president!" or "it's Biden's fault he had narrow legislative margins and an evil SCOTUS" I cry.

That's correct except they want their slave wife to still appear able to suffer. If you dug into this they'd say so. They do want a robot capable of being desperate and capable of being afraid.
that post of joe rogan talking about 'whats more virginal than a computer' made me fully understand that their misogyny runs so deep that they really would *prefer* to kill their their wives and replace them with robots.
