The NewPipe application for Android is wonderful for this!

Unfortunately I don’t think there’s anything similar for PC (unless you use an Android emulator I suppose!)

The purpose of the Vice President is to be so off-putting and so inept that people decide not to XXXX the Big Man.
Joe Biden, for example, or Kam Harris. Mike Pence, or Dick Cheney. George Bush. Walter Mondale. Spiro Agnew.
Not saying some of them don't become POTUS, but they are sure Crappy ones.

Me, a 25 year broadband policy expert: Ezra Klein's complaints about rural broadband suggest he didn't do his research because he misrepresents some programs, and ignores others that accomplished exactly what he's asking for.

Klein fans: you just don't understand what he's saying!

Financial Times: "I feel liberated," said a top banker. "We can say 'retard' and 'pussy' without fear of getting cancelled...it's a new dawn."

Some Wall Streeters also feel able to embrace making money openly, without nodding to any broader social goals. "Most of us don't have to kiss ass because like Trump we love America and capitalism"

Such a great point, perfectly made.

Surprised I’ve never seen it made before, since it really is the obvious sensible response to this strange but extremely persistent argument!

This is such an informative and important video. @taylorlorenz.bsky.social’s excellent journalism takes us through the liberal response to MAGA fascism, showing how for many libs, it’s more about clout and money than liberation for all people.

I see similarities in the Canadian context too.

This entire thread. But also, as pointed out on the other site, Riley's family got due process. Her killer was caught, convicted in a Court of Law and sentenced to life in prison without parole. And we did it without violating *his* rights and without grabbing a random immigrant and shooting him.

People get so worked up about sports and then if you ask them, they don't even have a single coherent thing to say ABOUT sports.

Any time you see an article frame something as "took action against transgender sports," do more digging.

75% of the time, whatever they are talking about also bans trans people from bathrooms/medical care/targets trans adults.

Sports is just a way to frame it as morally acceptable.

DOGE Claims Credit for Killing Contracts That Were Already Dead Elon Musk’s group claimed credit for canceling procurement agreements that had been completed years earlier, the latest in a string of public errors on its site.

"Just a big mess": Musk's team claims credit for saving $53.7 million for "canceling" a federal contract that in fact was just for $144,000 and was actually completed 20 years ago. @Fahrenthold.bsky.social @sangerkatz.bsky.social @jsvine.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2025/03/02/u...

counterpoint: no they aren't, they're going to come up with increasingly intricate and convoluted explanations for why things aren't lining up with their expectations of reality. Stop waiting for people to "come to their senses", you're not going to get to say "I told you so" to anyone

Incubation period is 2-4 days & death can occur in less than a week.

Claims from raw food companies that their “methods” inactivate flu virus are FALSE.

Heating: pasteurization or cooking — are the methods to inactivate H5N1.

High pressure processing (HPP), freezing, & freeze drying do not.

The mortality rate of H5N1 influenza in cats ranges from 50-100%.

Cats, like birds, have high levels of the specific receptor this flu strain attaches to: α2,3-linked (SAα2,3) sialic acid receptor.

The biggest source of H5N1 in cats? Raw pet food.

Not being alarmist but it's really concerning me as I'm working on tomorrow's Threat Model newsletter to notice how many SCAN Covid wastewater sites haven't updated since Feb 12-14. The US overall is in a period of sustained high transmission.
