AOC: "I think we have to recognize that we are in a new day and in a new time. But that does not mean that the majority of Americans are ready to walk away from a rules-based order, and that we're ready to walk away from our commitment to democracy."

JFC I've heard that Fetterman is considering supporting the SAVE act. It's a disaster of a bill that would create sweeping disenfranchisement.
Whoever your senators are, I don't care, call them. I don't wanna hear if you think they definitely will or won't support this, take 3 minutes & call.

Re: Minnesota I think it's important to both recognize they're lying about a full retreat and recognize it as a victory that they're cognizant enough of the PR disaster to feel the need to lie.

I genuinely still do not understand why the pharma lobby didn’t unload with both barrels on RFKs confirmation. They had to know this was the inevitable outcome.
This is troubling for multiple reasons, but one big one is companies won’t want to invest in R&D and clinical trials if they don’t think they can get a fair regulatory review—which is at the end of a long and extremely expensive process.

Relooted is not only a neat puzzle game with grand heists and a charming cast, but also a challenge to who owns and tells African history. Plus, it's one of the few games to capture Africa's diversity well, pulling artifacts from all across the continent. My review:

Fallout has gone from a small side project to a worldwide phenomenon. We spoke with many of the people behind the various eras of the franchise to tell the story of the series in their own words.
