Hannah Arendt On Standing Up to the Banality of Evil | Philosophy Break For 20th-century German philosopher Hannah Arendt, most evil is committed by people who never make up their minds to be good or evil.

The sad truth is that most evil is done by people who never make up their minds to be good or evil.

Agree or disagree?

The 2026 park pass is… cringy.

Sit me next to the folks who can talk openly about Bigfoot being an interdimensional being that can teleport *only*.

It’s not a great deal if you don’t need it. And especially this year, others really need support. So for all of us who have enough, let’s refuse to get sucked into the holiday shopping frenzy and share instead of shop. We don’t need more stuff, we need communities where all our neighbors are safe.

The Trump administration’s decision to apply pressure to the most amoral cowardly members of American society, big law firm partners and college administrators, is paying big dividends.

newsGP - Australia set for world-first cervical cancer elimination Vaccination programs have played a key role, and GPs remain ‘instrumental’ in boosting screening rates to reach the 2035 target.

Australia recorded ZERO cases of cervical cancer in women under 25 for the first time since they started tracking the cancer in the 80s.

This is the power of vaccines.

The HPV vaccine is extremely effective at preventing cancer.

Viruses can be oncogenic. Get your vaccines and protect yourself!

137 women and girls killed every day by partners or family, U.N. says Every 10 minutes a woman somewhere in the world was killed by intimate partners or family members in 2024, according to a U.N. report.

Every ten minutes.

Let that sink in.

Women are killed every ten minutes by intimate partners or family members.

This is why we call out misogyny and patriarchal values.

This is why the President shouldn’t get away with calling female reporters “pigs”

Enough.

Abortion And DEI Policies Now Considered Violations Of Human Rights, U.S. Says The Trump administration has overhauled how the State Department conducts its annual Human Rights Report.

Countries that have abortion access, DEI policies or protection for LGBTQ+ people will be considered “human rights violators“ by the Trump regime

We’re in the upside down.

A Neandertal recipe with lentils and grain Looking at a fascinating new study that finds mixtures of different plants within ancient morsels of charred foods.

Coming together to eat the food we share has been part of humanity from the very beginning. I wrote this post after a Thanksgiving week lecture on evidence for Neanderthals and other ancient people making prepared mixtures of grains, lentils, and other foods.

Was there any reason to decertify the nursing profession besides misogyny?

Imagine hating immigrants more than pedophiles

That MAGA Account Might Be a Troll From Pakistan How X blew up its own platform with a new location feature

I wrote about the fake account blowup on X this weekend. A genuine post-truth nightmare and proof that these companies have polluted their platforms so thoroughly and traded reality for profit that they've undermined the very idea of what the internet is supposed to be.

The motherhood recession — Artefact Why some women don't want to have kids in their 20s, or ever.

Nice article quoting the right voices on low fertility: "we should be asking questions to certain organisations about why some of them are making it harder to raise children....we shouldn’t be blaming women for not having children and instead focus on what kind of society we want to live in"

Trump Has a Recipe for War and Corruption, Not Peace Who would benefit from the White House’s 28-point proposal for Ukraine?

This is not a peace plan. It is a proposal that weakens Ukraine and divides America from Europe, preparing the way for a larger war in the future. In the meantime, it benefits unnamed Russian and American investors, at the expense of everyone else.

The dismantling of public health systems is also a reorganizing of the public health economy to Christian grift. It’s the parallel track of dismantling all public social services especially education

It’s fun to think about the surgeon who will botch your surgery 20 years from now and what he’s doing at this moment. He just ran all his homework through ChatGPT. He just read that article about vaccines and autism at the CDC website. He just watched an Instagram video about the moon landing hoax.

“The Department of Education said what now? Nursing is ‘no longer a professional degree’? Tell that to the nurses who kept this country alive while half of Washington was playing political cosplay.
