This is devastating. This is horrible. This is the very antithesis of what America is. Every Republican should lose in 2026 because of this. Every single one. This is on them. This is on all of them.👇

It's all just so stupid, isn't it? You may be feeling overwhelmed by the flurry of crises – and that's by design, writes @AmyRemeikis.

This is a good, thoughtful, measured, non-hyperbolic evaluation of Charlie Kirk from @thejohnpaulhyde

Don't let anyone gaslight you.

Everyone saw what happened.

Scotland has NO children under 18 incarcerated. Why can’t we do that?

By far my favourite paper I've led! Drawing on immunisation schedules as a framework, we set down a series of evidence-informed policies, & interventions to address SDoH across the life course to prevent mental disorders at a population level https://t.co/qTYwSQZdOP

@Constababble @binarythis I spent a decade on that campus and there were protests, rallies, demonstrations, etc at least weekly, and I never saw a security response anything like that.

A very good thing I've done with two hours of my time recently is listen to the two most recent episodes of The Ezra Klein Show.

Concerned about health? Indoor air quality is a big deal. If you have polluted air coming in, you can DIY an air filtration system that performs well compared w/ fancy expensive systems: a Corsi-Rosenthal box https://t.co/0hCITKpjMP @CorsIAQ @JimRosenthal4 #Decarb4Good #NetZero

@pastorwill @davenewworld_2 Get sent to prison and used as forced labor doing work that’s cheaper than automating?

@Peter_Fitz Of course Dee is right that Perrottet knew that wearing a Nazi uniform is deeply hurtful and offensive to many people. But he was confident that none of those people had been invited to his party.

@tallyhoez So the closest she's come to being a resident of the ACT is while she's incarcerated? 😆

#COVID Day 11: Released from isolation days ago, but all symptoms persist. Whole family has tested positive now. Today’s great accomplishment was scrambling a few eggs. All by myself. 😅 Baby steps. #CovidSucks

[@[email protected] @wil68]

@bern62 So far, yes. The fam all tested neg with RATs on Mon. Got PCRs on Tues, boys all neg, still waiting on one result.

[@[email protected] @wil68]

Well fuck.

#COVID Day 3: Extreme fatigue. Takes more time to recover from 10 steps to and from the toilet than it takes to pee. Less coughing until I pass out. 👍 I think. Sometimes it’s hard to tell. Lost 100% of smell and 95% of taste yesterday. No support from health system. COVID sucks.
