Gaza death toll in early part of war far higher than reported, says Lancet study
Research suggests more than 75,000 killed in the first 16 months of conflict, 25,000 more than announced at the time
More than 75,000 people were killed in the first 16 months of the two-year war in Gaza, at least 25,000 more than the death toll announced by local authorities at the time, according to a study published on Wednesday in the Lancet medical journal.
The research also found that reporting by the Gaza health ministry about the proportion of women, children and elderly people among those killed was accurate. Continue reading...

"My wife and I absolutely forbid our children from reading those horrible Judy Blume books," he said. "And because we didn’t clean up our society back then, then we have to deal with absolutely horrific things today."
Yeah, THAT'S it.

This is the kind of thing white supremacists have been doing to Emmett Till’s memorial for decades.
It’s wild to see them do this to a white woman who the entire world saw extrajudicially murdered.

Someone doused Renee Good’s Minneapolis memorial and a nearby pile of wood with gasoline and started a fire at about 9 p.m. Tuesday.

Mamdani is restarting sweeps on encampments. He says they will be doing outreach every day of the seven day warning they get before all their belongings are destroyed. Extremely disappointing. Backtracking on too many promises has already happened.

What really needs to happen is better resources for parents with autistic children. Better education about the spectrum, how to aid your child to the best life they can live, and being ready for them to not be what you expected. Not some eugenics ass therapy that won’t work and will only harm kids
NEW: The FDA has removed a webpage warning about dangerous therapies claiming to treat autism. It’s part of a series of actions the agency has taken under RFK Jr. to discredit long-established science.

It surprises me how often I stun people with this writing advice, so I'll just remind you here:
You don't have to start at the beginning. It probably won't be the beginning anyway. You can write the part you can see/hear/imagine best and go from there.

In a society where everything seems to be getting worse and more expensive and more designed to isolate us and neutralize any sense of community or potential to organize that community, it’s a miracle that the library still exists AND is expanding its services to have stuff like 3D printers now.
Libraries are among the few public institutions that represent the kind of world we want to live in. They must be fought for.

My grandfather filled out a one-page form two weeks after his arrival here, raised his right hand, and was sworn in as a citizen.
The more of these fascist atrocities I see, the more I become an immigration maximalist. Let everyone in, give everyone work permits/green cards. Make it possible to get citizenship within a few months. Make it as easy as getting a driver's license.

one reset I'd personally appreciate: behind the insistence that we must offer the electorate a little bigotry is the idea that commoners are more bigoted than the richer and more educated, who can be appealed to with high minded policy. but then you Ctrl+F "phrenology" in the Epstein files
What strikes me is that 'the volk' have incredibly incoherent and everywhere ideas, but the people who claim to speak for them in the press are like clerics who think there are two poles for all politics and everything must fit between them. These poles are like, eight inches apart
