Admittedly I’m not a skeptical person but when I saw that the recent piece in The Atlantic was by Liz Bruenig, I skipped it because I don’t trust the writer. Seems like that was the right call wapo.st/4tITiAC
The Atlantic’s essay about measles was gut-wrenching. Some readers feel deceived.
Some critics and physicians said Elizabeth Bruenig’s account of a mother confronting a child’s death from measles felt misleading once they learned the story was reported fiction.

Seriously, why are Newsom people so weird
Harris lost votes because she's short, because she's black and because she's a woman. She almost won. Newsom gets those votes back. Sad but true.

Fam I am so sorry if me disliking Jason Bateman is “why we continue to lose elections.” I don’t understand how that works but I apologize.
Look at Kat Z tripping over dollars to pick up a penny. People like you are why we continue to lose elections.

Snow removal this week has not gone as planned, and I share neighbors' frustrations. Here are the latest updates we've received from the executive. 👇🏾

PSA: if you hear someone say that they have a generator, ask them where they plan to put it while using it. Plenty of smart people genuinely don’t know why it’s critical to give it plenty of space.
A few people pointing out that their homes are all electric and therefore they do not need carbon monoxide alarms. Do you have a neighbor? Do you know if they own a portable generator? Do you trust them to not place it too close to your house?

They know "progressives" can't win anywhere except safe Dem districts (maybe). That's why they don't try to flip red seats, even though they are closer to MAGA when it comes down to it. They are both in favor of autocracy.

@ianlivingston.bsky.social any thoughts?
has anyone written up (reliably. I can't find reliably) something about how weather forecasting is not as good now? And is it related to Trump admin stuff? Or am I just seeing it different now because of all the everything?

It’s great that the Sabres are doing well and also it’s fun to see Sabres fans here because posting with hockey people was how I got into Twitter.

A week ago I think I knew maybe 3 parents at my kid’s preschool, and now I know almost all of them, and have steeled myself to give my life for their kids and their teachers if I need to.
