I mean that to me the article isn't the analog of the album, but of the song, i.e. issue=album and article=song.

PETITION: Don't Let the Federal Government Regulate Your Reading Not one country's freedom and liberty has ever been increased by banning books.

The Federal Book Ban bill uses funding threats to pressure schools to remove books.

Federal control over local policy - and federal control of reading, writing, and publishing - is unacceptable.

Isn't the issue the album?

Zenodo is great!

The Texas Supreme Court just blocked the judge’s order that would have kept Democratic polls open until 9 p.m.

But don't let them trick you: anyone who was in line by 7PM STILL has the legal right to vote and have it counted. Anyone after will have their vote collected, but counting isn’t certain.

Israel/US killed 167 schoolgirls in Iran in an Illegal unprovoked attack.

Paperback edition of There Is No Place for Us: Working and Homeless in America by Brian Goldstone

Today the paperback of THERE IS NO PLACE FOR US is out.

It's arriving in a country once again waging war—a country that can spend tens of billions on bombs without blinking, while millions of Americans are one missed paycheck, one rent hike away from homelessness.

Let's take stock of where we are.

Misinformation in the Iran/US/Israel war.

The viral video below claims to show the aftermath of a reported drone attack on the US embassy in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, tonight.

But the video was posted last week to TikTok, and shows an unrelated car accident in Riyadh.

Please vet your sources.

I don't care if Congress authorizes War on Iran. NO WAR ON IRAN. I want people to fucking reclaim their morality.

ICE's alleged 'ruse' in Columbia student arrest may have violated law, attorneys say Agents are permitted to use "ruses" in enforcement actions, but they can bump up against constitutional protections.

The question here is whether ICE agents broke the law by pretending to be police officers and lying by saying they were looking for a missing child to gain entry to a residential building.

If the law allows this, how are people to trust any official if one can easily be impersonated?

Corporate Media destroy Biden over US military deaths in necessary & overdue withdrawal from Afghanistan (his approval numbers never recovered) but sits there and laughs with Trump as he talks about drapes as US military dies over Iran in war of choice that he has not even bothered to justify to US.

A line plot with the numbers of NSF awards for fiscal years 2021-2026. The curve for fiscal year 2026 is quite a bit lower than those for 2021-2025 while the curve for fiscal year 2026 (in red) is much lower than all through the same date.

But, as they say, there is no time like the present

[OK, maybe the 1930s if you want to nitpick]

But, with some data wrangling, my first NSF Funding Curves!
