The TikTok decision lets the gov attack press freedom under the guise of national security.

The Pentagon Papers case told courts to be skeptical of national security justifications for censorship.

This is the latest example of judges ignoring that instruction.
‘Who are we to judge,’ ask … judges, upholding TikTok ban
We warned that the TikTok ban forgets the lessons of the Pentagon Papers case. Last week’s court decision upholding the law proved our point

To decry the Vatican’s nativity scene with a now-removed Jesus in a keffiyeh is to deny the centuries-long history of artists depicting the Holy Family in Bethlehem as marginalized, forcibly removed, and diasporic peoples.
Nativity Scenes Have Never Been Neutral
To criticize the Vatican’s nativity with a now-removed Jesus in a keffiyeh would be to dismiss the artistic history of crèches centering marginalized people.

If taught properly, STEM can be absorbed and understood by young children. Instead of breaking down adv. concepts, we need to build them up and integrate them into their everyday and world view. Tots are in their own world, but it is full of STEM. We just need to open their eyes to it. 🧪👩‍🔬🥽🍎

It's deeply troubling to see Canadian leaders falling in line with Trump’s inflamed, bullying narrative about the border.

Suddenly Canada should be ‘safeguarding’ the border because Trump has said so. Doesn’t matter that numbers don’t even remotely bear out his hateful fearmongering

This is just moronic.

Obesity is a complex illness very much like an addiction. Obese people don't need lectures from dietitians. We need psychotherapy to help us cope.
