Again we did this in January you'd think people would remember. Was January's lack of an end of the war about Trump's will to peace being weak then and strong now, or something else

Guess you never grow old of chatting with your pals while holding a machine, or set of weights.

These dudes just talked through a whole set and did nothing while I did mine.

there's genuinely quite a lot of 'christianity is a religion for losers' stuff on the new right and well yes! that is the point! it was a faith of slaves and women, as the romans sneered.

Donald- So I just admit that I was wrong and I get to go into heaven?

Jesus- Yes my child. I paid the price for your sins when I died on the cross

Donald- But I have to admit I was wrong?

Jesus- Yes my child.

Donald- I like messiahs who weren't crucified.

I wonder what new thing they explained, as I clearly remember in college being taught how some economic models use technology as an endogenous variable of growth

The New York Times @nytimes.com · 1h

Breaking News: The Nobel Memorial Prize in Economics was awarded to Joel Mokyr, Philippe Aghion and Peter Howitt for their work on how technology drives growth.

The thing about the top 1% wealthiest is that they are generally not taxed on earned income, instead more on capital gains.

#ICYMI: Critics of raising taxes on high earners often warn about “tax flight”—migration out of the state—a fear the Fiscal Policy Institute calls a myth.

Data challenges tax flight claims in New York

New York State’s 2021 tax hikes on wealthy residents did not trigger a mass millionaire exodus, as the top 1% of earners are actually likelier to stay in New York than people in any other tax…

A 13-year-old boy was arrested by ICE in Everett and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia.
A 13-year-old boy was arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in Everett after an interaction with members of the Everett Police Department and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia, according to his mother and immigration lawyer Andrew Lattarulo.

The boy’s mother, Josiele Berto, was called to pick her son up from the Everett Police Department on Thursday, the day he was arrested. After waiting for about an hour and a half, she was told her son was taken by ICE, Berto told the Globe in a phone interview.

“My world collapsed,” Berto said in Portuguese.

From the police department, the boy was taken to ICE’s holding facility in Burlington on Thursday evening, where he spent a night before being transferred by car to the Northwestern Regional Juvenile Detention Center in Winchester, Va., on Friday morning, his mother said. The juvenile facility is more than 500 miles away from Everett.

The boy is a 7th-grader at Albert N. Parlin School in Everett, his mother said. The teen and his family, who are Brazilian nationals, have a pending asylum case and are authorized to work legally in the United States, Lattarulo said.
