The YouTube channel 3blue1brown has a fantastic set of videos on the basics of calculus. I used to tutor calculus and I think it really helps to get a good high-level view before digging in. youtu.be/WUvTyaaNkzM?...
Repulsive.

Literally more than 1 out of every 5 people in this country.
Trafficking the boy after using him as bait, pinning someone in the snow to spray into their mask, shooting Marimar Martinez, murdering Renee Good—Bovino and Miller are asserting the right to harm anyone they want. The only acceptable response is to make sure they can no longer harm anyone at all.

Lies about vaccines. Lies about Tylenol. Lies about immigration, crime, tariffs. Lies about media bias. Lies. Lies. Lies.
People who embraced cruelty have caused tremendous death and suffering in 2025, but those opposed to cruelty have banded together, gaining so much strength across the year. We will continue to rise, and our power increases each time we do.
Democrats in Iowa tomorrow are seeking to defend a seat in the state Senate to keep the GOP from regaining a supermajority. Without that supermajority, the Senate can no longer confirm the governor's nominees on party-line votes.
Except that we won’t. The social Darwinism and eugenics are a huge part of MAHA. After all, a key idea behind the antivax movement is that vaccine-preventable diseases can’t harm you if you’re healthy and that if you’re not healthy it’s your fault.
Really fascinating to see antivaxxers continue to blame Biden for the COVID lockdowns and school closures that started under the first Trump administration.

You're the dipshit liver doctor who voted to confirm the dipshit. You owe America an apology, but even then, no apology will ever be enough. #medsky
This is the scandal. Trump isn’t targeting dangerous people. He’s targeting peaceful immigrants. Almost exclusively.
Seattle’s mayor and city attorney were both elected in 2021 on promises to crack down on crime and homelessness. They lost their reelection bids this month to candidates promising to undo the incumbents’ punitive practices.
