You want to know what its like to live through this? Every day is a week long. Whatever motivations you had about work, about art, about love feel meaningless. The grief is overwhelming. #usa

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

It was learning about Rosalind Franklin’s story at Cambridge that prompted me to consider the impact of 1950s academic misogyny on the intellectual development of the field of archaeology: www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

I see James Watson has died.

What did Watson discover?

Rosalind Franklin's lab notes.

Only we spell it 'S-T-E-A-L' these days.

Imagine asking whether women ruined the workplace while our nation is being run into the ground by some of the most unqualified, toxic, mediocre men in politics.

I always find it interesting how the story changes when a lawyer gets to court. They can say anything they want outside of court without accountability but the rules are vastly different in court where you can get seriously penalized for lying.

An awesome thing about being a journalist, and not a politician or advocate, is you can say true things even when they’re unpopular. For example, climate change is real, perpetrated by specific actors, harms many people, and should be resolved as fast and thoroughly as possible.

I owe an apology. I said earlier "We won't win them all tonight".

It looks like we will.

I'm going to take some time away to learn, reflect, and grow, with apologies to everyone I have harmed.

Elected Democrats spending more time today praising Dick Cheney than Zohran Mamdani is a great case study in abject fucking moral failure.

My dad knew Cheney since he was fords chief of staff and would always say “i liked him then. Idk what the hell happened”
In the run up to the second Iraq war my dad wrote an article comparing it to the gulf of Tonkin and Cheney himself made sure my father was fired from his gov job

Anyway he’s dead

Very very good piece, applicable everywhere.
Vibes Aren’t Everything. They Are the Only Thing.
To survive in this political environment, Democrats must stop thinking and start feeling.

I was kind of looking forward to Election Day. Now Dick Cheney has ruined it because Dick Cheney ruins everything

This "great American" talk on MSNBC is making me ill. I'm sorry for his family, but you can't erase war crimes and mass murders. How many widows were created by his lust for power?

Aileen Wuornos will be remembered as a hero in my book. I see nothing wrong with ending the lives of predatory men. The justice system did NOT care she was a victim.
