“If you’re angry about THIS, but not about THAT—“

NYT put the largest protests in US history below the fold in two small photos and a story on page 23. One tiny line and no photo on its website (now gone). This is why people outside the US keep asking me why Americans aren't protesting.

Can the Manhattan Project avoid building the nuclear bomb?

Idaho Banned Vaccine Mandates. Activists Want to Make It a Model for the Country. The Idaho Medical Freedom Act makes it illegal to require anyone to take a vaccine or receive “medical intervention.” Leslie Manookian, the activist behind the law, hopes to make it a “societal norm” ...

Schools in South Carolina recently sent home unvaccinated kids, to stem a growing measles outbreak. Turns out 5 of them were infected and, if they'd been at school, could've unwittingly infected their classmates for days.

That kind of precaution is now illegal in Idaho.

pleased to announce that there seems to be a passive-aggressive conflict roiling the august pages of Cooks Illustrated, Fall Harvest recipes edition. allow me to explain:
