I imagine it starts with not having actually lived the conditions one opposes. It's hard to imagine enduring hardship for decades and generations when one's own difficulties are largely optional

Current NIH leadership want you to think they are using rigorous, consistent & scientific processes to screen studies to align them with agency priorities.

But the process that they have put down on paper is a sham.

It’s important to know NIH is not following its own guidance. Here’s why:

It's not just Platner himself, it's the particular type of supporters he attracts. It's like how Trump attracts Nazis who are pretty sure he's on their side.

I'm not willing to collaborate with Nazi tattoo and podcast enthusiasts either, Lysander.

Judge Blocks State from Enforcing Abortion Ban Against Religious Objectors A judge has handed down a ruling that prevents Indiana from enforcing its near-total abortion ban against women who say the procedure is a requirement of their religious faith.

A narrow but important win in Indiana. Cracks in abortion bans start small, then they grow.

I just heard @leonadato.com pronounce it "Chat Jippity" and that's how it's pronounced now.

Please update your style-guides appropriately.

This piece is referring to SCOTUS*, but:

The Speaker of the House is an evangelical Christian, as is the Senate Majority Leader.

The threat to Hormuz was never Iran's ships. Iranian sailors had halflives shorter than a WWII German submariner even before this, Poseidon protect them. How has Trump not heard of anti-ship missiles?

I like my transformative thinkers without Nazi tattoos.
I find that people with Nazi tattoos tend to transform things in ways that are not good.

He's a nepo baby with a Nazi tattoo and a fondness for far right podcasts and media.

You should definitely stop doing Nazi apologia, but you should also TRIM YOUR BEARD

Anglo-saxons: Heroes are fragile things. The constant urge for glory and war will lead to nothing but a dead, buried heap of old metal.

Celtic epic: Rage and hypervigilance are a path to the doom of all around you. The land has its own rules; do not ignore them. Be very careful what you promise.

It's always funny what gets left out of "tradition" and "the West"

Mesopotamia: Reams of poetry written by a trans woman, epic about trauma, grief and failure.

Greece: Queer loss and the futile brutality of war, societies brought to ruin by aristocratic pride. Also everything Sappho wrote.

The Russians spent decades ahead of it researching and deciding on specific plans for distribution of land and assets and things that varied based on stuff like soil quality. It's a marvel of civic engineering. And it still sucked

I read this a while ago. What struck me is how much preparation and planning and research went into it, and it was still a clusterfuck in many ways. Reconstruction never stood a chance.

There was a thread some months ago that got a lot of hate about the consequences of political violence that didn't outright condemn it as an option, it just said "make sure you're ready for what follows; make sure you think it's actually necessary"

Imperial Russia had just canceled the remaining debts resulting from the abolition of serfs, and I would like to know what would have happened with a better head of state and a less world war one

Let's talk about this!
1) one of the costs of several wars was that the French basically bankrupted themselves to support the American Revolution.
2) agreed about the tax system and inequality.

but that doesn't tell the whole picture that this kinda poists as a history lesson! So ...

lmfao Thomas Keller showing up to a community meeting in his chefs jacket to complain about affordable housing being built near his 3 Michelin star restaurant is just beyond parody. what a piece of shit
