Columbia, the school that once arrested Darializa for peacefully protesting, is now likely going to be represented by her in Congress.

Abdul for Senate is out with our new TV ad, featuring voices from communities across Michigan and the three ideas driving our campaign: money out of politics, money in your pocket, and Medicare for All.

This is a hard article to read, but I hope you'll do so. I've spent some time reporting on widespread rape and other sexual violence of Palestinian male and female prisoners by Israeli authorities, and the article is now published. The assault victims were warned not to give speak of what they endured -- they were sometimes told they would be killed or raped if they gave interviews -- but they found the courage to do so. One man described being raped three times in a single day in Israeli prison, the third time after he tried to protest. A young woman said the guards would come in at the beginning of each shift and strip her naked and abuse her. Another reported that she was shown photos of herself being raped and warned they would be released unless she cooperated with Israeli intelligence. Even three children who had been detained told me they had been sexually abused. Look, whatever our position on the Middle East, we should be able to agree on being anti-rape. Sexual assaults were horrific when Israeli women were targeted on Oct. 7, and they're equally horrific when Israeli authorities use them against Palestinians day after day after day. We should be able to find common ground in opposing rape. Here's a gift link to the article: https://t.co/aMMHId49OO

A truly terrible idea. It's like there's an "arm the Kurds" button in the CIA director's office that must be pressed once every few years

Right next to a similar "screw the Kurds" button

This is super helpful: 'peer reviewers are driven by “fund / don’t fund” binary and summary statement is a justification than a quantitative addition of strengths and weaknesses.'

Is it an outrage if your NIH grant score goes from nearly funded to ND after you revise it? https://t.co/TvX09MZxme via @drugmonkeyblog

Even in Russia, they don’t shoot protestors on the street. They do that in Iran.

All of this is fucking senseless. Minnesota did not have an immigration problem. Trump sent his Nazi thugs here because he's racist against Somali people and to own libs like Tim Walz. Now two Minnesotans are dead and Minneapolis is on the verge of going up in flames. None. Of. This. Was. Necessary.

Jane Goodall had a remarkable ability to inspire us to connect with the natural wonders of our world, and her groundbreaking work on primates and the importance of conservation opened doors for generations of women in science. Michelle and I are thinking of all those who loved and admired her.

Many studies suggest a major cause of autism is the mutated sperm of elderly fathers, but in a centuries old tradition (see everything from schizophrenia to eating disorders), men have decided to blame women for taking Tylenol while pregnant (despite no valid supporting studies).

Ya hu bu topraklarda "tombul tombul memeler" diye türkü var. Türkünün birinde "Konyalı'dan başkasına bastırmam" diyor. Burhan Çaçan yıllarca "liseli vardı ya ah o lisesi, kısacık etekli dar elbiseli" diye şarkı söyledi. Bayıra karşı yatır beni parçasını herkes bilir! Bir başkası; "Halime'yi samanlıkta bastılar. Şalvarını gül dalına astılar."

Daha yüzlerce müstehcenlik içeren şarkı türkü var. Mabel Matiz söylediği şarkıdan dolayı niye ifade vermek zorunda kalıyor. Hasta mısınız ? Başka derdiniz mi yok!

IT'S OFFICIAL: Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York State, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island & New York City have formed the Northeast Public Health Collaborative.

The collaborative will issue their own vaccine recommendations and coordinate public health efforts.

Illinois is currently exploring the possibility of purchasing Covid-19 vaccines in bulk straight from manufacturers to make sure everyone will still have access.

[Dr. Lucky Tran @luckytran]

New Mexico has issued a public health order that removes federal restrictions to COVID-19 vaccine access so that pharmacies in New Mexico can vaccinate people of all ages and risk profiles. Every state needs to do this!
