We are ignoring a lot of what we know.

I had a great time reflecting on education, community and all things in between with @desia.bsky.social on this podcast.

Particulate pollution in the air down a whopping 22% in NYC’s congestion pricing zone.

Not only are the streets less congested, but so are our lungs.

It’s still hard to believe these clowns are running the government.

Congressional Republicans are a bunch of buffoons.

They are running out of time to put together a comprehensive health plan before the subsidies expire?

They have had FIFTEEN YEARS!

What “woke” really means: in-group language reminding Black people to stay vigilant against violent white racists and institutionalized racism

What conservatives and MAGA think “woke” means, and therefore why they hate it: act like Jesus

As they say, prove me wrong!

It looks like, contrary to the norm, the DOJ *is* having trouble getting a grand jury to indict a ham sandwich.

The “democratic socialist” countries with a thoughtful social safety net and high taxes are more democratic than we are.

This is the nexus of “socialism,” free enterprise and “not authoritarian” that I was told is impossible growing up.

Shouldn't this be like a IDK, national scandal kind of thing? We forced a president to resign for much less than this, or am I just old? We need to examine how we got here from the press corps of the 1970's, when Robert Redford made a hit movie about courageous journalists. IDK, we've lost the plot.

DHS claims that an accused murderer was released from a Charlotte jail and was “back onto North Carolina’s streets because of sanctuary policies.”

The local paper reported that was false.

So DHS quietly removed that statement—and never admitted they lied. www.charlotteobserver.com/news/local/c...

The moral of the story: people should never meet their racist heroes because they might be pedophiles who also hate them.

It’s good to explain that the CDC is lying and vaccines still unequivocally do not cause autism, even if it just reaches one person on here who has doubts. But the fight is out there, not in here; and the time to let go of the information deficit model of science communication was decades ago

a big runoff last night, in New Orleans:

Calvin Duncan was exonerated after spending *28 years* in prison; he tried to get his own case records from the New Orleans city clerk—but the office dragged its feet.

So Duncan ran to become city clerk himself, and yesterday ousted the incumbent.

Duncan, a political newcomer and former prisoner, defeated incumbent Darren Lombard by a wide margin in Saturday's runoff.
