Just started reading "The Freaks Came Out to Write," a book by @tromano.bsky.social about The Village Voice. The "cast of characters" at the beginning includes this entry... 😆

I used to think they were all nuts when they’d carry on non-stop about deep state cabals, powerful pedophile rings and highly connected sex traffickers.

It turns out they knew exactly what they were talking about.

They were talking about themselves.

Attorneys for Larry Bushart, 61, allege in the lawsuit that those responsible violated Bushart's First and Fourth Amendment rights.

One of the most sobering stories of 2025 was the explosion in cases of Parkinson’s disease, which have more than doubled globally over the past 20 years.

A neurologist who leads a globally recognized clinic and research team told us the reason.
‘Parkinson’s is a man-made disease’: How a chemical Europe can’t quit may be driving the disease
Europe’s flawed oversight of pesticides may be fueling a silent epidemic, warns Dutch neurologist Bas Bloem. His fight for reform pits him against industry, regulators — and time.

Something missing in all these obituaries of Jimmy Carter is his book Palestine: Peace not Apartheid. He wrote it in 2006 and, sadly, it still holds up.

Arguably one of Jimmy Carter's greatest achievement is bringing the world to the brink of eradicating the Guinea Worm.

From 3.5m cases a year in the 80s to less than 15 the last few years. It's an astounding public health achievement.
