the USA built a system of higher education so good that smart/rich people from across the world came here, spending billions to learn here, subsidizing education for Americans while spending money to live in our cities and towns. our government arbitrarily decided we should stop doing that

COVID Contrarians Are Wrong About Sweden Trying to โ€˜let it ripโ€™ in early 2020 was a disaster.

The conventional wisdom swing on non-pharmaceutical measures during COVID has tilted toward "doing nothing, like Sweden did, was good." @ryanlcooper.com puts this through the ringer: prospect.org/health/2025-...

stop saying โ€œthis looks like it was made by AIโ€ or โ€œwas this written by chatgpt?!โ€ when you donโ€™t like something.

devaluing human effort like that sucks.

I donโ€™t care if itโ€™s bad cgi or a formulaic script. if itโ€™s made by a human you show it some fucking respect and just say itโ€™s dogshit.

the lesson of this isn't that tucker carlson is actually good but that you should ask these people basic factual questions instead of bullshit about politics

An NBC News article headline reads: "New images could change cancer diagnosis but ICE detained the Harvard scientist who analyzes them." The article is by Jean Lee, published on April 21, 2025, at 5:34 PM EDT, with a 7-minute read time. It has 86 comments. The summary states: "A groundbreaking microscope at Harvard Medical School could lead to breakthroughs in cancer detection and research into longevity. But the scientist who developed computer scripts to read its images and unlock its full potential has been in an immigration detention center for two months โ€“ putting crucial scientific advancements at risk." The NBC News logo is at the top.

If Jesus had focused more on kitchen table issues and less on unpopular outcasts like lepers and prostitutes, he might have won more support from white working-class Judeans.

Newsom is pure politician through and through. Itโ€™s unclear whether he has actual beliefs. Just another dude who wants power and does the tactical shit he thinks will deliver that to him.

A cartoon by Cori6 compares two scenarios. The top panel, labeled "PROJECT 1938," shows a group of people, including adults and children, disembarking from a train with a ramp, reminiscent of historical deportations. The bottom panel, labeled "PROJECT 2025," depicts a similar group of people disembarking from an airplane using a mobile staircase, suggesting a modern deportation scenario. The cartoon is signed "Cori6" in the bottom right corner.

Every thing you do, no matter how small, to remind people that the wannabe dictators are actually sad, scared, fallible little boys is helpful. The more we laugh at them, the less fearsome they are and the easier it is to wrest power back from them.

Also? These messages are effing hilarious.

Rising global temperatures can influence the timing of events, such as when crops are ready to plant and harvest and when flowers and trees bloom.

One example is the timing of the peak cherry tree blossom in Kyoto, Japan, where records stretch back to the ninth century โ€” thatโ€™s over 1200 years.
