The original sin of modern culture, especially but not exclusively digital culture, is conceiving of it as first and foremost about feeding the content maws. All other general sins are inextricable from that

One of the purest examples of a moral panic in our time. A clinic that had years-long waitlists and required an average of 7 appointments before providing transition care smeared and shut down for being reckless.

Politicians should quit their lazy pandering about the “real America.” Real Americans live in cities. Real Americans live in small towns. Real Americans eat children in their forest huts that stride around on giant chicken legs. Real Americans live in the suburbs. We’re all real Americans!

Late #Cretaceous Winton Formation, #Australia. A huge Australotitan cooperensis ploughs ahead, paying no heed to bothersome #pterosaurs (Ferrodraco lentoni) or a puny Australovenator wintonensis. A group of Diamantinasaurus matildae observe the commotion from a distance. #dinosaur #paleoart #sciart

Just our luck that we ended up with real world bad guys that possess all the unambiguous evilness of terrible action movie villains, but none of the intelligence, competence, or charisma of terrible action movie villains.

Chadwick Boseman and James van der Beek both died in their 40s of an illness that's treatable if a colonoscopy catches it but almost no insurer covers them for people under 45, this is what Engels meant by "social murder"

It doesn't explain his relationship to the rest of the human race but a big part of RFK Jr.'s broader damage is clearly trying to find out if he can die. I guess if I had lived a life like his and was somehow still around drinking out of puddles at 72 I'd have some questions on that as well.

Do you have to ingest, inhale, or touch her to activate the toxin? That girl is POISON.

Does she deliver the toxin via bite or sting? That girl is VENOM.

More than 10,000 Ph.D. scientists were fired by the Trump administration last year. Grant cuts affected more.

"A few dozen got jobs in other countries" is not a serious solution.

There are not enough jobs in the whole world. The result will be less science, not the same science just elsewhere.
Dozens of researchers will move to France from US following high-profile bid to lure talent
Large proportion worked at Columbia University, which had its grants cut and frozen by the administration of US President Donald Trump.

When I worked for Reason magazine during Trump's rise to power in 2016, I was explicitly forbidden by the editor in chief from writing about Trump's racism, or the violence and racism at his rallies.

It was a "sideshow," I was told.
Weird. I tried to warn libertarians about Trump

"Trump voters urge him to tone down the rhetoric and focus more on domestic issues, especially clearer pathways to legal status for law-abiding immigrants", proving they unaccountably had no clue who they were voting for.
