They thought we, being radical leftists apparently, would put a "DOGE sucks" type of message onto government websites or into government communication systems

My evidence for that: the right did exactly this to government websites. So they were projecting what they planned to do onto us.

If you're ever wondered why journalists seem so out of touch most of the time it's because in order to establish yourself you need to either come from money, marry into money, or be OK with abject poverty and daily financial panic

That third thing is unsustainable long-term

"this study provides robust evidence of significant cognitive impairments in PASC patients, with attention, working speed, and lexical fluency being the most commonly affected domains."

I once asked a bookseller at a large indie store how many people would have to buy a book for it to get the attention of the store buyer and cause an additional order and they said: Three.
I see some book piracy discourse, and, to make a positive argument in favor of buying books, your marginal ability to influence what books get published and support the careers of writers you like is massive compared to most other forms of media.

Not one, but TWO 95+ yard drives in a quarter and a half in Ypsilanti. One by each team. Eastern has also gotten a 50+ yard wheel route, and a 54-yard run on a 3rd and 18. That @sickoscommittee.org warning was spot on. If you're not watching on ESPN2, you need to be. #MACtion can't help being weird.

Firefighters onboard MV ONE Henry Hudson have taken the term surround and drown to a new level with 80% flooding of cargo hold #3 in which the burning containers were contained.

Crews are piercing any containers with hot spots to cool. The scene has been turned over to the salvage company.

Want to take a moment to support our Karen neighbors. The Karen are an indigenous population from Myanmar who faced devastating violence at home.

There are now 20,000 Karen people living in Minnesota—most in Ramsey co.—the largest population in America.

The problem with this article is they asked too many lawyers and not enough historians.

As a historian, I'd say the legality of Trump's immunity and pardons depends on how he leaves office.

At 40 over 55 approval? He's immune.

At 25 over 65? He's probably not immune & self-pardons aren't legal.
