I refuse to cede to these goons that the premise of America was about creating a land for white people. We have a lot of ugly history. The nation was also born with a lot of beautiful ideals.

Kelvin has strangled Memphis's dreams so many times that you know it hurts me to say he's consistently brilliant in every aspect of his job. Here the master is again, using complaints about having to hold out his hat for big donations to hold out his hat for even bigger donations.

Only someone this wealthy would so flippantly suggest you uproot your life, sell your house, pull your kids out of school, quit your job, request a transfer — all to save 50 basis points on CPI. 🤡

… is a reference to Russian tv propagandist Vladimir Solovyov, and the fact that state tv used to show the ballet “The Swan Lake” as a prelude to the announcement of the death of high ranking leaders.

She got 13 days in jail.

My hero this week is Diana Loginova, also known by her artist name Naoko, who gathered a couple of hundred young people in Saint Petersburg while singing songs banned by The Kremlin.

One line in the song goes [quote:]

“Get the fuck off the screen Solovyov — let the swans dance”

Which…

Studies show, for example, that triggering someone's "civic" identity can help them evaluate information more objectively. So someone who is fiercely political actually has the capacity to be more impartial once they are empaneled on a jury and see themselves as a "juror" 3/

In honor of Larry Summers, I asked the female members of my college class (1987) to say if they had any experiences with sexual harassment by teachers/professors, back when this was tolerated as, I dunno, the cost of attending college, and OH MY GOD.

Absolutely incredible; after shooting Marimar Martinez 5 times and arresting her on claims that she rammed them and pulled a gun, prosecutors have now moved to dismiss ALL criminal charges against her and her codefendant.
New: the govt has moved to dismiss its assault case against Marimar Martinez and Anthony Ian Santos Ruiz, two people accused of "box[ing] in" a Border Patrol vehicle in Chicago on Oct. 4.

One agent shot Martinez, with evidence presented to the court that he later bragged about in text messages.

A Trump supporter started murdering his way through an assassination list of Democratic law makers FIVE MONTHS AGO. He murdered my colleague Melissa Hortman, and her husband Mark — and attempted to assassinate my dear friend John Hoffman and his wife Yvette. I was also on the hit list. WTF

This is almost unreal incompetence.

Here's how this area of inquiry was discussed in Monday's opinion.

In short, this is the afterthought, the ~it couldn't be this, could it?~ moment in the opinion: "If this procedure did not take place, then the Court is in uncharted legal territory ..."

My fave undergrad class by a gravity-welled mile was Science in Literature, tbh a secret philosophy class. We experimented with Relativity Visualized, analyzed the math hidden in Alice in Wonderland, and argued over Blade Runner’s personhood questions. I’m so jealous of the students in this class.👇
First day of my Philosophy of Cosmology class! I'm interpreting "cosmology" pretty broadly. There will be three main topics: 1) Anthropics and the multiverse; 2) The arrow of time; 3) Quantum foundations, especially Many-Worlds. The idea of self-locating uncertainties will be a common thread.

Last Thanksgiving, two Dallas Police officers knocked on my door, citing a tip from the FBI national threat operations center that I was beating my girlfriend. The incident report confirms this. Today, I obtained a file from the FBI via FOIA that states the FBI has no record of receiving such a tip.

Yesterday in car, Fat Bottomed Girls came on & my 5 yo daughter made me play it 3 times. When we got in car this AM, she immediately said “play the fat bottom song” & we listened to it 4 times. She was singing along after the second play. Dropped her off, then I listened 3 more times on the way home

Deep South ‘25: We need more trad wives, babies, and doctor prisons!

Deep South ‘30: Whay all the single ladies?
A new article with @mjnelson.bsky.social in PRQ, using a conjoint, CPS ASES and medical residency application data, finds that abortion bans make states less desirable places to live for young women, college graduates and doctors.

This law is more extreme.
