1. They're asking the wrong q., imo. I‘d answer every question (of the full survey) "not an issue of 'morality.'" Humans tend to human; outcomes are individual & situational.
2. Judging fellow countrywo/men: LOOK at that difference between 🇺🇲 and both 🇲🇽 and, wow, 🇨🇦. Maple Magic-even with Polievre.
Join me in shopping in my own closet before hitting the thrift store. The longer it’s been, the more entertaining it gets.

Public name-the-team contests in MiLB ⚾ have brought us The Rancho Cucamonga Quakes, The Asheville Tourists, The Lansing Lugnuts, The Richmond Flying Squirrels, The Albuquerque Isotopes (home field: Isotopes Park).
That's *before* the 1-5 game-per-season alt identity trend in this 🧵.😆 #Baseball
She hadn't done her homework. Few topics are off-limits in an 🇮🇪 pub, and conversation is a big reason to spend time there.
In my ignorance, I've thought of SC as uber-red. Thank you for dispelling that!

Thinking about a new pedagogy of all in-class writing to combat AI, and realized we should do it like art classes do, hire a nude dude to sit on the conference table and everyone writes a flash piece about him in bluebooks
Might be a latitude thing. Overall, when it comes to morning light exposure, Northerners get shnuggered from mid-Oct. till the return to Standard Time in early Nov., and again from now until mid-April. Except those who live far enough north that there's no escaping morning darkness Oct.- March.
A corollary to an earlier question. Are there immune system development risks for the (rare) homeschooled rural U.S. kid who isn't exposed to a parade of respiratory (and other) viruses as a result of school attendance? Can it be OK for a 7-year-old's future if she seldom catches colds?
2026's 🇺🇲 mano-🤡-sphere obsessions get stoked in multiple Web-tv-radio pass-throughs.
Remember: 1993-1994 broadcasts of hate-propaganda over one Rwandan radio station incited Hutus to murder 800,000 fellow Rwandans. #MTPol

Ahead of International Women’s Day: riveting oral history from some of the Tehran women whose revolution got hijacked - and their crucial place in official Iranian history erased - beginning in March 1979.

😱 Oh, no. May their replacements grow quickly.
Down-🧵: "When there's a lower volume of big dumb photos and videos of folks like Noem and Bovino preening like cartoon Nazis, public attention does wane, but people still get disappeared, targeted, etc..."
(And a random, periodic apology for 🇺🇲-centricity in my posting...)
It always comes down to “…pastor Doug Wilson, a Christian nationalist who co-founded the ID-based Communion of Reformed Evangelical Churches…does not believe women should hold leadership positions in the military or be able to fill high-profile combat roles.” #ID www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m...

Tech security guidelines for organizing 🇺🇸 dissent: Assess your threat model and decide what you need to protect. Consider in-person meetings & circumvent digital spying.

Climate change coverage fell 14% globally in 2025, while the world endured record heat, raging wildfires, and devastating floods.
The crisis intensified. The headlines didn’t.
Less coverage = less urgency.

There was a similar tragedy in Texas last summer that killed a 12-year-old girl. More shenanigans involving missing dive computers and clueless aspects of the investigation. (Same lawyer as in Linnea Mills’s case.) divemagazine.com/scuba-diving...
When "How To Kill a Mermaid: The Linnea Mills Story" comes to a film festival near you, see it. I'm acquainted with people in the film, have followed Linnea's story since 2020 - and the film still cracked me open. #LinneaMills #Scuba #Diving

Tea: the middle way. 😁 Pu’erh ahoy - in moderation.
You've heard of Kent State (1970) & maybe Jackson State (1970).
Did you know #tdih 1968, 28 students were injured and three killed (one a HS student) — most shot in the back by state police while involved in a peaceful protest in Orangeburg, SC? 💔 🧵

Thanks for the nudge! I waited for the Super Bowl to begin, brought up Shir Tikvah’s donation page, and gave my portion of the settlement from a class-action lawsuit against Facebook (for privacy violations). 🤣 Ah, symbolism.
In case it’s handy: “todah rabah” is Hebrew for “thank you very much.”

I created an app where you can browse people who are struggling with overdue bills/rent/evictions/groceries in the Black Community. It’s cleared the goals of 230+ people so far. It’s called Miiriya. From time to time you can open the app & easily give to someone in need. Please help raise awareness
