Turns out the most fantastical aspect of the new Superman movie is there being *only one* insanely wealthy tech guy bent on destroying society for his own personal gain.

Superman was quite good.

I had an enjoyable time.

As a trained social scientist I want to say… this is not data.
Makary: "We have a lot of data and it may not necessarily be the traditional 50 year randomized control trial follow up. It's data from families that say their kids have been acting with bad behavior ... and they eliminate the petroleum-based food dyes and the behavior improves. That is data."

This has been one of those “social media is not real life” controversies.
New poll of New York City's general election electorate:

Mamdani 40%
Cuomo 24%
Adams 15%
Sliwa 14%

Problem for Mamdani opponents: they don't have very high to go with. See fave ratings:
—Mamdani 49/40
—Cuomo 39/50
—Sliwa 32/50
—Adams 29/70

I just left the Everglades Immigrant Interment Camp. No, I’m not using their ridiculous name. It was a very tough to witness humans in those cages. Every Floridian should be ashamed that our taxpayer money is being used for this.

When I wrote I am Superman, I asked DC Comics if we could use “the American way” again. They happily let me. We’re all on the same team. Go see the movie. Believe in kindness. We need some good in the world right now & @jamesgunn.bsky.social delivers it. #superman #supermanmovie #nerd #hope
