What if we vilified billionaires and their corporations the way the poor have long been stigmatized: as the "parasite class"—Musk's own favored term—trapped in an "endless cycle of dependency."

Given escalating attacks, many international students will not be traveling home this summer in the hopes of avoiding border violence, denial of re-entry & potential detention & deportation.

One thing alums can do is start mutual aid funds to help them cover unexpected housing and living expenses.

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die.

Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

If you're curious how a democracy transitions from a free press to state-run media, this is the kind of step you'd expect to see.
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt announces that the White House Correspondents' Association will no longer choose the pool reporter.

"Moving forward, the White House press pool will be determined by the White House press team."

Yeah, there’s something a little inhuman about the response to the United CEO’s murder.

People get a little inhuman when they’re profoundly, systematically dehumanized.

Anyway, thinking again and always about what our healthcare system stole from my family.
