THE PAPER IS SUCH A GOOD SHOW. Fully delivers on the promise of The Office - specifically, the workplace it portrays is so accurate to modern working life in a dying industry that it almost hurts. (Almost.)
'The Paper' Episode 2: "The 5 W's" | The Weir'd Times
The Paper’s second episode did an excellent job at furthering dynamics they set up in the pilot, and filled in a lot of the ones I’d wanted more of. I see it clearly now: there are so many familiar ch...

He's also creating deadlier strains of tuberculosis. Pausing treatment allows TB to evolve drug resistance. Drug resistant tuberculosis takes months and even years to treat and if it gets more resistant we might not be able to treat it effectively with existing drugs.

Just received this photo from a friend of a warehouse in Kinshasa. These are tuberculosis medications--ALREADY PAID FOR--that aren't being distributed due to the Trump Administration's stop work order.
TB treatment is being interrupted in SO many patients around the world. What does that mean? (1/2)

It’s just wealth transfer from the government to Trump’s buddies. Crypto needs a liquidity pool of real money. The government is going to give the crypto market real cash, and all the people who bought crypto will be able to cash out for U.S. dollars. It’s 100% just theft of government money.
Wondering what the public interest is in diluting the US dollar to hold Bitcoin and assorted other cryptos in a "strategic reserve." A reserve for what purpose?
We have a strategic petroleum reserve in case we run out of petroleum. We have dollars and people still like them?

I'm personally rooting for the inverted flags about town.
People will start talking, feeling like they're on the same side, in intimate space, so they use real words & start to realize we all mostly actually agree & can unite against those who would hurt us.
Play the game, play it well, Soldier.

Do you find something racist about my appearance when I'm driving my Cybertruck? Everyone needs to drive a vehicle, even the very racist. This was the most racist auto that I could afford. Should I, therefore, be made the subject of fun?

Apparently the only way to get anyone’s attention in this country is with money, so let’s send a message that we’ve had it. Disrupt the economy, since it’s the only thing Elongated Muskrat and his orange puppet seem to care about.

“A person familiar with the matter… said analysts were verbally informed that they were not to follow or report on Russian threats, even though this had previously been a main focus for the agency.
“The person said work that was being done on something “Russia-related” was in effect “nixed””

Trump administration retreats in fight against Russian cyber threats
Recent incidents indicate US is no longer characterizing Russia as a cybersecurity threat, marking a radical departure: ‘Putin is on the inside now’
