Looking forward to what she does at CBS, despite the reductionist doom quote you picked. Funny, I read 5 pieces on her today, including this one, and I got more than one dimension. I’d expect more from a “journalist”.

A key federal prosecutor in Virginia, where James Comey was indicted, is resisting bringing charges against Letitia James.

I wish journals would put the species in the title if main conclusions aren’t from humans.
This study was mice, one human panel showing exercise induced an increase in 7 of the conserved microRNAs in human sperm.
Mice live two years, humans live decades, more work needed to assume conservation.

Insensitive?
"His intention was to instill a feeling of gratefulness for the modern day comforts many may take for granted but his words did not achieve the effect he was aiming for because references to lynching and hanging are insensitive."

The Klein philosophy is that for democrats to we should dehumanize women and treat them as vessels, subject to white evangelical views of religion, and erase trans people as fully functional and deserving human beings.
Democrats didn’t compromise on race equality in the 60s, and shouldn’t now.
