Education professor. Simon Fraser University. Vancouver. Hiking, skiing, gardening.
Yup. Virtually guaranteed. People like him are utterly delusional.

Infuriating. One of my academic heroes, the late Dr. Urie Bronfenbrenner, played an important role in bringing Head Start into being. He would be appalled, no, horrified, to hear this news.

Lichens are so cool! Thanks for the pic!

He's really admitting China is ahead ... and giving them access to these chips will allow them to get even further ahead.

No surprise here. Racists, all.

Would love to see the data from Minnesota he mentions. Wish someone would ask him or Trump to produce it.

Yeah, likely a troll. Drinking aqueous chlorine dioxide is such fun!

And, ah, rabies is such a fun way to die. Death preceded by paralysis, delirium, insatiable thirst but an inability to swallow. No cure once symptoms show. Death within about 10 days. Lovely.

The best in American leadership. Made my day watching this.

Absolutely and terrifyingly stunning that no one in House and Senate or the media can act powerfully enough to get RFK Jr. and his ilk removed from government. Incredibly sad that too many in the public are okay with RFK Jr.

Such an incredible failure of governance.

So he's gonna bring down agricultural costs by slapping an additional tariff on Canadian potash.

What a plan! Economic genius!

So tragic. As you said, Jonathan "Motivated reasoning kicks in … confirmation bias gets activated."

So they really, sincerely think they are doing the right thing. Awful to imagine how those poor kids suffered.

Did a quick look online. All kinds of folks who should know better hyping this diet.

Everyone I have talked to who came down with shingles said it was like walking through endless fire.

Shingrix vax a bit painful for a few hours. So worth it.

Ah, yes, Tucker Carlson, that great theologian! Carlson, of course, has the inside track on what makes a Christian.

From Bonhoeffer: Christ in community. Christ's presence in us all and in the world. Living for and service to others.

"Love, in its essence, means making room for the other."

Aside from anything else, these folks are supremely ignorant about global demographics and migration patterns. Their prejudice, their racist fears blind them to the obvious.
December 8, 2025 at 1:28 AM
Wow. Gonna share this with my grad students.
December 8, 2025 at 1:18 AM
Aside from the faux pas, the logic here is, um, impeccable.

What a great moral argument.

These people are worse than pathetic. They have opened themselves up to evil.
December 8, 2025 at 1:17 AM
I can believe that. They go around and around and around with their arguments. They are masters of circular reasoning.

Interesting, dat.

So then Barbabella is lying about his condition (which wouldn't at all surprise me)? Trump as an example great cardiovascular health? The guy who never does any cardio exercise and who eats junk food regularly?
December 8, 2025 at 1:05 AM
I think this issue is really central: it is exposing the deeply rooted violent, passionate, racist hatred that has infected so many of them.

Scary stuff.
December 8, 2025 at 1:00 AM
Gad, these guys can't even mount a coherent argument. Yes, we want to be supportive of immigrants ... but the country doesn't *really* want the immigrants and that's why we elected a disruptor.

Say what?!
December 8, 2025 at 12:55 AM
Yeah, it's their plan so of course they're "fine with it."
December 8, 2025 at 12:51 AM
No, you don't have a great relationship with Canada. We love America but we don't like or respect you.

And, er, what was the name of the Prime Minister you mentioned there, Donald? Edward Kennedy or Edward Carney?

Yeah, shows what a great relationship you have with us.
December 8, 2025 at 12:49 AM
Gee, ya gotta love Trump socialism!
December 8, 2025 at 12:43 AM
Um, I suspect he means all leftist leaders, feeling all of them have been 'feminized.' But if we're going to talk about the actual schoolmarms ...

Yes, Elizabeter Warren, AOC, Tammy Duckworth, Amy Klobuchar, Ilhan Omar ....
December 8, 2025 at 12:41 AM
But then will they just ignore the peer review process altogether and allow the hacks to make the decisions about what gets published (on ideological grounds)?
