#Dax18 går ut av uka med et smell. Eller, vi skal i hvert fall diskutere jakt på ekorn. Og klimamål. Og personvern, politikere vs forskere og kutt i bibliotekene. Lytt og se:

I love how the Secretary of Health and Human Services, the guy in charge of our national well-being, runs away like a cartoon character the moment somebody needs medical help. The other Trump gargoyles at least attempt to look concerned. Kennedy sprints off camera.
holy shit -- one of Trump's toadies just passed out and the White House event is brought to an abrupt end

I don't know who this guy is, but I certainly hope he is okay. That was hard to watch.

I also want to agree with those who noted how bizarre it is that Robert F. Kennedy Jr., seeing a tragedy unfold before him, hauled ass out of the room like George Costanza during a fire.

What a nauseating man.

TRUMP: Bobby, you haven't changed your view on Tylenol for women that are pregnant?

RFK Jr: No

TRUMP: Because there's been false reports

RFK Jr: I'm not gonna change until the science changes

Incredible reporting from @carolinehaskins.bsky.social about a school Mark Zuckerberg opened on his Palo Alto compound and operated for years with no permits, permissions, anything at all

Neighbors complained about noise, security guards, and hordes of traffic. An unlicensed school named after the Zuckerbergs’ pet chicken tipped them over the edge.

Mark Zuckerberg’s Palo Alto neighbors complained about the noise, the presence of security and the hordes of traffic. Then, neighbors noticed that an unlicensed school appeared to be operating out of the Zuckerberg compound. They began a crusade to shut it down that did not end until summer 2025.

Vital piece of investigative reporting from Sky. They've uncovered the X algorithm which feeds users extremist right wing material from the moment they join the site. It is a far-right radicalisation engine, by design.

At forsvarerne til Marius Borg Høiby har hentet inn en professor i sakprosa som ikke svarer på spørsmål, men heller sitter og lekser opp i retten hvordan forfatterne burde ha skrevet boka, både med tanke på kildehenvisninger og språk, framstår som en scene fra en beksvart komedie.
