mRNA research helped develop COVID vaccines in record time - saving millions of lives.
Cutting half a billion in mRNA funding, as HHS Sec. Kennedy proposes, isn’t just bad policy - it’s dangerous. As a physician & recipient of mRNA vaccines, here’s what people need to know 🧵

If you’re peddling myths about how the origins of agriculture set humanity on an irreversible path to inequality and self-destruction: (1) don’t ask me to endorse your book (2) don’t pretend you’re interested in the findings of archaeology or anthropology (3) maybe just don’t.

I need to tell you something unsatisfying: your personal consumption choices will not make a meaningful difference to the amount of enshittification you experience in your life.

This will have to count as my Supreme Court term review.
I make that point that there is no point in reviewing what the Supreme Court has done because the rule of law is dead in this country anyway.

The Rule of Law is officially dead in the US. How do we know? Here, @ElieNYC explains what the rule of law actually means and how we know it’s stopped functioning.

"If your customers are too happy, you're leaving money on the table": it's the rallying cry of the enshittifier, and it's also what a friend of mine was told by a respected professor in a top-tier MBA program.

There's a terrible 5th Circuit opinion I'd like you all to see. Lots of people say we should "use conservative arguments against them," but you have to understand, FedSoc judges do not care about their own hypocrisy. They just write their way through it.

I think there's still more than a chance that AI is overhyped as a world-altering technology and the mega-expansion looks silly in a decade, if not sooner

Trump world will never allow justice for Breonna Taylor.

My latest in @thenation about how the 33 month sentence for one of her killers is still crap.

Funny how all that protect women’s sports energy goes right out the window when women ask for more of the revenue they generate.

[Nancy Jane Moore @WriterNancyJane]

@EclipzEditz @EvilMopacATX Yeah. I need to come to Austin but I know better than to come in August.

[Elie Mystal @ElieNYC]

The Supreme Court's emergency docket decision to allow Trump to gut the Department of Education is maybe the most pro-Trump, pro-Authoritarian ruling the Court has made in service of Trump thus far, and I've read them all.

This is the perfect moment to incorporate the word "kakistocracy" into your active vocabulary.

If the Emperor has no clothes, and chooses to walk down the Main Street of the city, it may very well be indecorous to call him out as buck naked. But the real wrong in that scenario is in the naked parade down Main Street, not in the call that points the nakedness out.
