I think often of the women in the Louis CK story—how they all left comedy and never went back, but he’s still going. It’s everywhere and it’s such a loss for them and for us—for things they’ll never make that we’ll never see.
the Epstein files are really devastating because they remind me of how many girls and women miss out on professional opportunities, mentorship and careers because of how many powerful, rich and influential men only view girls and women — and interactions with them — through the lens of sex

This is why I can't understand the incrementalism. There's horror shit happening to kids in these places. Horror shit. OK? That has to matter. The longer we wait the longer these kids suffer.
I was just denied entry to the Dilley detention facility while my constituent, seven-year-old Diana, remains inside.
What kind of sick, horrific conditions are children being forced to endure in there?
I will be back tomorrow. Accountability can’t wait.

Among the folks involved in the atheist/skeptics movement from a a couple decades ago, Rebecca Watson was one of the ones I least expected to see in the Epstein files. But she is. In a good way. There are several others involved in a not-so-good way, and a lot of them are unsurprising. (1/2)

These 2 kids detained last week were brought back to MN today. But school officials say many others from the Columbia Heights district are missing. They're not sure if they're in ICE detention or have moved away with their families. www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

So the issue here is the same as it is for many conservatives: He doesn’t consider anything he does to be “political” because he believes that all reasonable people already agree with him.

A lot of religious persecution. Either to get away from it or to start some more of it. One fleeing an induced famine. One sentenced to Transport. One indigenous. One eventually most likely traces back to a slave ship. The Mormons weirdly didn’t have good genealogy records on those last two…

I would like to wholeheartedly apologize for helping teach rhetoric to undergrad logic classes. I think I probably caused net harm. I had to switch careers and go into medicine just from consequentialist principles.
