I feel like this is a problem with kids shows too.

When I was 9, I could watch the Batman cartoon and that continued through Justice League when I was 23.

Fetterman, unbending on Israel, confounds his progressive brethren Those who know and have followed the senator say no one should be surprised by his recent posture. But still, many are.

He was always pro Israel. It just wasn't salient in 2022.

This only makes sense if you believe "moderate" = "weak". Which I'm sure is the overwhelming popular position here.

Wow. Kristi Noem’s dog-killing story may have cost her a shot at VPβ€”but it also might've helped land her the role as head of DHS. www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

One of the most interesting ways to see the true 'center' of social media was this graph of meme origins from KnowYourMeme.

YouTube + 4chan dominated early internet culture, Tumblr had a few influential years, then Twitter was the center of everything until the rise of TikTok.

Remember, john roberts' logic for weakening the medicaid expansion was that it was "too coercive" to give the states money to pay for medicaid. bsky.app/profile/apne...

New Mass. Municipal Association Report: Mass. Cities and Towns Reaching a Fiscal Breaking Point - Massachusetts Municipal Association (MMA) FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: John Ouellette, Communications Director BOSTON β€” A new report released today by the Massachusetts Municipal Association (MMA) documents the convergence of severe factors...

The MA Municipal Association has issued some detailed reports on the fiscal challenge of meeting growing need for city services while MA state law holds us to an inflexible revenue cap that doesn’t account for high-inflation years or rapidly growing healthcare costs ⬇️

I very much believe in public investment for highest quality of life. Must also fit within budget constraints. State law Prop 2.5 limits City revenue growth to less than inflation every yr & resulted in huge public jobs cuts when 1st passed. MA cities can’t add revenue sources w/out state approval.

Not entirely sure it's wrong.

Review: 'Scrubs' is a rare sitcom revival that works Zach Braff and company have returned, older and sometimes wiser

The Scrubs revival isn't at the level of the original run's early years, but it's the rare sitcom revival that understands how to change its characters to reflect their age and how much the world has changed since we last saw them. My review:

As we hit the first state primaries of the election cycle this year, I want to wish a hearty congrats to all of the babies born during the 2008 election season who will be voting for the first time this year!

Gov. Healey just banned road traffic in Bristol, Plymouth, and Barnstable counties due to the blizzard and dangerous road conditions - so let's hope that guy driving around Sandwich in his 4WD Ford Maverick is back home.

I’ve really been struck lately by the parallels between this and the lead-up to the 2003 Iraq War. Complete inability of the administration to grasp the situation from the other country’s leaders POV (which doesn’t prioritize US), despite it being clear to IR experts.

I foolishly assumed that this Trump post tonight made no sense to me because there is some medical situation in Greenland of which I am uninformed. But so far all the news reports I’ve seen are saying that it is unclear what he is talking about.

Ok but we know how plays out in practice right? Trump mails out a bunch of checks with his name on them and says β€œBehold the bounty I your benificent leader bestow from my wonderful tariffs!”
