the ceasefire deal happening now with “moderate pressure” on the israelis points to the biden administration being in favor of the 50,000+ deaths of palestinians. i’m really not sure how else you can interpret this

Seeing American and Chinese people interact and compliment each other on Xiaohongshu might be the cutest thing ever. We're all humans who don't have to hate each other because of arbitrary borders drawn before we were even born.

Don't you dare turn your eyes away from history, even the awful, scary parts. If you don't watch it with your own eyes, you rely on others to tell you what you saw. We must all bear witness to what's coming.

Republicans are now blocking an effort to allow new mothers in Congress to vote remotely shortly after giving birth.
GOP Rep. Chip Roy says, “I don’t give a crap who you are or whether you just had a baby in the last six weeks.”

it seems trump's economic plan is to attempt to tax other countries. is this why he keeps talking about annexing canada? is he trying to do the mafia bit where he demands payment in exchange for "protection"?

Maybe I was raised weird, but I'm of the opinion that people who do nothing wrong and definitely didn't sexually abuse anyone don't need to keep NDAs ready and waiting for people to sign in exchange for stacks of money.

Actual pro tip: the best way to break into any creative profession is by helping to support and advance other creators. Your peers are not your adversaries. They are your support group.

I’m convinced the “do audiobooks count as reading?” argument all derives from those mid-90s summer reading pizza challenges.
Folks - we’re all in our 30s and 40s now. It’s no longer a competition.
Go buy your favorite pie with your adult money and let people enjoy books however they want.
