The real sizes of continents. Most maps stretch places near the poles, making Greenland, Europe and the U.S. look way bigger than they really are. In reality. In reality, Africa is about 14 times larger than Greenland and around 80% bigger than Russia.

The Brits get it. I wish the other half of America could admit what they elected.

I must confess that when I was younger I expected the future to have more robot butlers and jetpacks, and less fascism and genocide, but here we are.

In a moment like this, when tensions are high, part of the job of the president is to remind us of the ties that bind us together.

Sen. Ruben Gallego: "Ashli Babbitt was a traitor. She was a traitor to this country. She was part of a violent mob that tried to overthrow our democracy...She didn't die protecting our country. She died trying to turn it down...She wasn't a martyr. She was and is a traitor."

RFK Jr. should’ve never been confirmed, & he’s proven that every day since. Children are literally dying from measles because of his lies & reckless anti-vax agenda. He is a threat to our health & our democracy. Public office has no place for deadly, deranged delusion. It’s time for him to resign.

I realize it's been 5 years but how is it no one remembers the early days of the covid pandemic and how scared we were? I was waiting for medical doctors and epidemiologists to do their thing and save us. I welcomed the vaccine after I almost died. Does no one remember how bad it was?!

This is so important…
Sharon has been tracking license plates on cars driven by ICE agents, and she’s finding they don’t match the vehicles.
In other words, ICE is using secret, illegal tactics—just like we suspected.
REMINDER: the DMV is not a federal agency.

Maybe it isn't ideal to have a crazy lawyer with no medical background who obviously doesn't look after his own health in charge of looking after ours.

From time to time I think about how wild it is that we have two fundamentally different ways of writing a lower-case g:
the open-tail g and the loop-tail g.
I see the loop-tail g every single day and yet I wouldn't be able to write this weird-looking variant without thinking very hard.

Secretary Robert F Kennedy Jr. has called off nearly $500 million in grants and contracts aimed at advancing mRNA vaccine development. This technology, first deployed during the Covid19 pandemic, allows vaccines to be produced rapidly and adapted as viruses evolve. His brain worms are getting worse!
