Overthrow the Tyranny of Morning People Leave the clocks alone.

My annual plea to leave the damn clocks alone, and why morning people are the worst:

BREAKING: Furloughed employees at CDC just received an email about the shutdown, but has REMOVED language about backpay that appeared in a similar email sent out a month ago. On the left is the Oct 1st email with the backpay language, on the right is the email they received today.

Screenshot of a Facebook post featuring three of the Portland protesters wearing inflatable frog costumes with the following text: Episcopalians on Facebook Elizabeth Rose Elrod • 22h • Exodus 8:2-6 "But if you refuse to let them go, I will plague your whole country with frogs... The frogs shall come up on you and on your people and on all your officials."

you fucked around and now the Episcopalians are doing memes. are you happy now. are you

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

There's no excuse for the Vice President of the United States to use a heinous killing as an occasion to baselessly frame political opponents as accomplices to murder while threatening to use the power of the government to attack them.

This dangerous rhetoric will only fan the flames.

Los Angeles child dies from rare measles complication years after recovery The county health department said the death is a "painful reminder" of how dangerous measles can be in unvaccinated people.

What is SSPE?
Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE) is one of the most feared complications of measles. It is rare, but always devastating: a progressive, fatal brain disorder that emerges years after a seemingly normal recovery from measles. 🧵

So maybe the problem wasn’t with the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics?

Hi, immunologist here:

(a scientist who studies immune & inflammatory processes)

RFK Jr is talking absolute bullshit when he says he can “see in kids faces that they have inflammation”

That’s NOT how immunology works.

He is an anti-science profiteer.
Start calling him such.

Stop what you're doing and listen to this warning from @marcelias.bsky.social about the real reason for Trump's National Guard deployment in DC.

Lol you beat me to it!

Live look at me sitting through yet another meeting that could have been an email:

Early summer snow melt up there on the plateau… You can just make out the Bear’s tooth over there on the distant horizon 🏔️🐻

Mike Johnson just said if you are for reducing the deficit, this bill is for you.

The bill adds 3-4 trillion dollars to the deficit.

They just lie.

WATCH: “If Biden answered any Q like this can you imagine how long @jaketapper’s book would be?”

Asked how long detainees will stay at “Alligator Alcatraz”, Trump spent 3 mins on how much time he plans to stay in Florida.

The media didn’t even cover it.

Why are we like this?

If we trust genetic engineering to save a child from leukemia, why reject it when it could save a child from blindness, malnutrition, or death?

We cure cancer with genetic engineering but ban it on the farm.

Celebrating one but demonizing the other fuels disinformation that costs lives.

A map showing what BLM and USFS lands would be up for sale in the western CONUS.

An image taken of Colorado's Maroon Bells from the still lake before it. In the foreground is the glass lake mirroring the landscape and sky above. A long log on the water reaches out from the left of the frame toward its center. On the other end of the lake is a lush green forest, with the forest stretching up the steep hills that bracket the image. Sitting right in the center of those hills are the Marron Bells - mountain peaks - partially coated in snow, and bathed in the saturated orange glow of the just-rising Sun. Overhead are blue skies with numerous puffy white clouds, some of which are still in the shadow of other mountains.

Millions of acres of public lands are eligible for sale in the Senate budget reconciliation package (as of 6-14). This would be the largest public lands sell-off in US history, and would bypass traditional safeguards such as public hearings & environmental reviews. 1/x

Families can stay 24hrs a day in ours. We do have them step out or shut doors during shift change and rounds.
