A wave of large-scale studies is quantifying how early smartphone access and heavy screen use can harm adolescent minds.

The numbers suggest screens are taking a broader, deeper toll on teens than many expected.

I wish I could comment on this because a) Really good photography b) Her hair is amazing and c) I would love to see the rest of the photos because I just can't love this enough
I get really emotional around the wintertime because my husband and I got married in the snow and all I do is think about how much I love him and how lucky I am

I had never heard Chuck Redd's name, but I am going to remember it for a while. Redd was the MC for the Kennedy Center Christmas show and has pulled out after the Center was renamed for Trump. The Center is now suing Redd for pulling out based on principle. Funny that they brand him intolerant.

The real question is not "Why is Bluesky so left-coded," the real question is "Why can't the right exist in a social media environment without algorithmic assistance, where people can ignore them"

As Trump turns on the EU, its worth remembering that the president who called the Russia investigation a ”hoax” just said that Europe will no longer be guaranteed US support. Which prompted Russia to say American foreign policy is now EXACTLY ALIGNED WITH RUSSIAN INTERESTS.

Seems to me the problem is management and onboarding programs that have no clue as to how to handle a remote workforce, but let’s again make young workers the problem.

Someone should remind Megyn Kelly that anyone over the age of 17 who has sex with 15 years-old girls is subject to state statutory rape laws and trafficking them for sex is a federal felony punishable by decades in prison.

The furor over the death of a Colombian fisherman has ignited a feud over the huge U.S. military buildup in the Caribbean and the legality of the deadly attacks on nearly 20 vessels since September.

The entire world is waking to climate change and our Supreme Leader still says it’s a hoax. I can’t help but feel this is aimed directly at him.
For the first time in the COP process, the agenda has formally recognized the crisis of information integrity. Nations have signed a pledge to combat misinformation and disinformation about climate science and action.

There was a point at which media leaned liberal. Those days passed about 20 years ago.
As @rbreich.bsky.social notes billionaires and their families own X, Paramount, CBS, Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, the Washington Post, Amazon, MGM, Fox News, the Wall Street Journal and New York Post, and could soon own Warner Bros and CNN

And they are all Trump supporters

"Liberal media" indeed

Say what you will about Joe Biden and his presidency, but I did not wake up every day with a sense of dread. I did not fear that my neighbors would be raided and taken away by the Brown Shirts. I did not fear that the Presidents nonsensical antics would cause me financial ruin.

Now ICE agents shoot women just for being liberal and cry on the stand about being lightly hit with a wrapped sub sandwich
Remember 25 years ago when a photo was taken of a fed pointing a gun at a crying refugee child and the image was so shameful it dominated the news cycle for a year

What we are experiencing in America has never really happened to us before. We were the nation of liberty that defeated a superpower and showed France the way to freedom. Now we, much like the Israelis, have become the nightmares we used to talk about in history class.
Nuremburg trials is the moderate position
He said that the agents would throw food at them to eat. The agents threatened to withhold food for a week and to beat him up if he didn't sign deportation papers. He said he saw others refuse and get beaten/receive no food. He signed because he was afraid.

Australia has so much electricity from solar power that it is going to start offering free electricity to everyone for at least three hours during the day as the wholesale price of power goes negative

@mikenellis.bsky.social Hey, ask your father if he thinks kicking the press corps out of the Pentagon and then forbidding Congress from overseeing the Pentagon without Hegseth's approval - which is their responsibility - signals anything underhanded to him.
