If you’re listening to Taylor‘s coverage of any health issues, please reconsider. She wildly misrepresents studies to fit her own narratives (and is incredibly weird about it).

Post-acute infection syndromes & their underlying mechanisms are incredibly complex. People who take them seriously and work to address them, including remarkable former labmates of mine at Yale, are some of the strongest voices *against* Taylor’s brand of oversimplification & fearmongering.

The number of people Trump says he'll deport keeps going up. It's now 20 million, 50% higher than the largest estimates of the undocumented population. It's clear sign that distinguishing legal from illegal won't be a priority. They're just going to round up people they don't want to be here.

Founders: as I have written **extensively**, it is very important that the country not elect Trump and presidents are not kings Judges in 2024: hmm if I squint at the text very hard looks like maybe the founders expected--nay, even demanded--that the president be a king, so long as he is Trump

I’ve said this a million times, but I’m genuinely frightened about what Musk’s fascist propaganda network is doing to do to our politics. I really wish someone, anyone, would come up with a collective strategy to get journalists, organizers and elected officials off the platform.

Dipping back into Twitter to lurk on assassination stuff and truly, from the bottom of my heart, unless you have massively curated lists, no one in media or politics should be microwaving their neurons on there.

Same. I have no desire to inflict pain on MAGA or make them suffer. I’d just prefer they not obtain the power to achieve their stated goal of inflicting pain and suffering on me, my colleagues, and my family.

This is insane.

I learned at an engineering conference recently that one crypto mine in TX, 100s of MW, makes more money off ERCOT demand response markets than it does off crypto repeat: TX ratepayers pay them more to sometimes stop mining than they make by actual mining just bananas misuse of power markets 🔌💡

It seems dicey to have a pseudo-primary there’s no process to establish whether we even should, and everything is channeled through polls and opinions Sure the need is there but yikes. I hope we’re not collectively torching our ability to coalesce b/c that will ultimately be super, super necessary

the editor of the New York Times reacting to a potential Trump second term with “fasten your seatbelts” is so deeply vile i can’t wrap my mind around it. these people have detached themselves so completely from the things they cover that the rise of fascism becomes just something exciting to watch

I'm no ivy league fail upward brunchlord news professional, but I feel it's generous to call conspiratorial fascism (managed by a sociopathic manbaby with a fourth grade reading level) "disruptive" that's kind of like saying nuclear annihilation is "modifying"

I'd like the days to be less stressful please, like barely holding it together here

Abortion access is under attack even in California. The city of Beverly Hills made the work easy for antiabortion extremists, starting with a councilmember asking “how did this get through?” when she learned about the clinic.

How Beverly Hills became an unlikely battleground for the future of abortion rightswww.latimes.com The campaign by an antiabortion group to block the opening of a specialized clinic in Beverly Hills may offer a playbook for similar efforts in other cities and states.

My guess is that Trump knows very little about P25 *and* it will be the blueprint for his administration. He’s famously bored by policy. He’ll appoint these people because they’re loyal. They’ll then go to work on the plan while he grifts, golfs, and gives two-hour speeches at rallies.

Whether Biden goes or stays, there's going to be a huge amount of anger and hurt. But it's really important to remember that the vast, vast majority of people arguing about this stuff right now share a common goal, and a lot of common values.

Man, if it turns out that the right winger telling NY Times readers that they should follow his example and not vote did in fact vote in the last two elections, the Times should add this to the piece. Better than a retraction, since it illustrates a willful hypocrisy.
