Can’t have humanitarian aid groups that tell the truth, deliver aid, save lives, and don’t randomly massacre people trying to access aid.
Israel says it will suspend several humanitarian groups, including Doctors Without Borders, in 2026 for failing its new vetting rules for groups working in Gaza. Some international organizations have said that Israel’s rules are arbitrary and could endanger staff.

DNA evidence is *very* extremely conclusive.
There is a problem though: even though the odds of a false match are like one in a billion, laboratory error is not.

Literally such as putting the suspect's DNA in both the sample slot and the suspect's slot: voila, it is a match, the odds are astronomical that it'd be a false match.
3,000 cases at least, she fucked with.

The murder rate dropped by 20% in 2025, the largest U.S. decline ever recorded
Crime in the U.S. fell in 2025. Will the trend continue?
Crime rates dropped across much of the U.S. in 2025. That was true for both property and violent crime. And it declined nearly everywhere: In big cities and small towns, and in red and blue states.

Ernst Röhm, Heinrich Himmler, and Josef Goebbels were all Gymnasium graduates who spoke Latin and Greek. Goebbels had a PhD in literature and wrote novels. Many extremely popular modern novelists are also massive nazis, including one who titled one of his books "my struggle".
I am beginning to develop a suspicion of national decline based in elevating STEM nerds to dangerously high social positions, because their tendency to believe that "anything that cannot be properly measured should not be argued for" is being more revealed by the day as an inherently reactionary one

A Hampton Inn in Asheville just canceled my family's reservation because our address (incorrectly) showed Asheville—and the hotel bars locals within 50 miles.
When I asked why, they said, "because of our homeless population," adding that most hotels here have similar policies.
This is outrageous.

The first thing ICE did when it was created was raiding meat processing plants in the Midwest and south to help quell labor disputes over safety violations and keep those who weren't detained from getting legal protections as many had kids who grew up locally and were citizens with political power.
