Today would be a good day for the media to ask leading Republicans whether they agree with Trump's repeated statements that immigration is "poisoning the blood of our country," language that evokes Adolf Hitler. www.justsecurity.org/92714/americ...

Fun reminder time! I worked for the largest homebuilder post-Covid and watched all of the new homes get bought sold in giant blocks of hundreds to shell companies while the company raised the prices in chunks at a time. It’s all one giant scam.

Now that it’s almost impossible for regular folks to buy a home, investors are looking for ways to re-squeeze current homeowners.

Wall Street's next big bet could revolutionize homeownershipwww.businessinsider.com US homeowners have stacked up trillions of dollars of home equity. Big investors are now ready to cut deals that could change homeownership forever.

This took far too long, but Blinken has overturned the “Pompeo Doctrine” and says Israeli settlements in the West Bank are “inconsistent with international law”. This a day after Israel announces thousands of new housing units in the settlements.

Publicly announcing an intention to ban the pill is the sort of thing you do if you feel so confident that your guys have so thoroughly rigged the system that it doesn’t matter that it’s a profoundly unpopular idea. Overwhelming majorities can just eat shit.

Just landed on a Wikipedia page with information that was obviously incorrect and followed the citation link which directed me to ChatGPT generated news garbage. Wikipedia has long been almost impossibly resilient, but LLMs are really reallllly going to strain this resource

I still don't think people are truly prepared for what happens when a corrupt supreme court and a handful of petulant billionaires turn all safety, consumer protection, labor, and environmental protection regulators into the policy equivalent of decorative gourds

P.s. this bill may attack “only” emergency contraception, but influential anti-abortion groups object to *all hormonal birth control*

An Oklahoma Republican introduced a bill that would ban emergency contraception—and using IUDs for EC. He said he wrote HB 3216 with Alliance Defending Freedom and claims his intent was to revert over-the-counter EC to Rx-only. They are coming for birth control. www.fox23.com/news/new-abo...

One of my wise friends once said of UNDERCOVER BOSS, “The final frontier of corporate greed is demanding to be loved.” I think about it a lot.

“I must regain the upper hand against the people I laid off without severance and left without healthcare”

I've often said that 'people don't care' is an insufficient explanation or frame. People actually care about a lot of things. But people also don't know what to DO about a lot of things.

Opinion that I don't know if it's popular to have: Comedy is a superior artform to any other kind of drama. People writing a scene like "X is mad at Y" can't even imagine the skill needed to write "X is mad at Y, but it's funny".
