In the 1600s, thousands of people were buried in crypts under a Milan hospital & preserved by unusual conditions. “What is striking is how much you can extrapolate from an ancient body,” says one researcher, “and how much you can understand from that about the period they lived in." @science.org

Your regular reminder that we desperately need to overturn Citizens United and get big money out of politics.

It is among the worst Supreme Court decisions in history.

It corrupts our political system every day.

Attempting to rig elections on his behalf.

Turning the military on citizens.

Toying with the idea of declaring martial law.

Attacking political enemies and punishing those who speak out against his regime.

If this were happening in another country, what would you call it?

Shoutout to @bethesdastudios.com for replacing my bricked Chronomark watch. After the original died in just a few months after the game came out, it’s cool to see the studio still supporting those of us who splurged on the CE of Starfield 😎

I’ll never understand how this is legal 🤦‍♂️
Now this is unusual.

Representative Tim Moore has disclosed purchasing at the end of June up to $30,000 of Direxion Daily Small Cap Bear 3X ETF, $TZA.

It is literally 300% of the inverse of the daily performance of the Russell 2000 Index.

He is playing a highly leveraged product while legislating

I said the same thing to my wife several times. I feel like I'm actually learning about the past living through what we're experiencing now. There WAS so much that was weird and hard to understand about earlier (similar) eras that I currently say to myself "oh...I get it now."

A case study indeed.
the hypernormalization of *gestures broadly at everything* has really been something to behold.

It would make for an interesting study if it wasn't so absurdly cruel and damaging to millions of people.

If Democrats want to regain working people, they must disavow Big Money.

They must hammer economic populism — and have a laser focus on the cost of living crisis in America.

There’s no way the party can speak for or represent the working class in America if it's beholden to corporate interests.

The disparity btwn what’s actually happening in Los Angeles and the way it’s being mischaracterized is one of the biggest stress tests of modern media in recent memory. Botted socials, AI, old clips, declining literacy—it’s like seeing a broken emergency response system hit by a storm.
