RFK is undoing human subjects protections so he can conduct placebo trials of vaccines. That means infecting people knowingly. I wonder who will “volunteer” for these trials? If history is any guide, a lot of incarcerated and other powerless people.
Dismantling the Institutional Review Board (IRB), that oversees all human subjects research, is bad. Really bad.
The entire HR department at the CDC is gone. Everyone at the IRB, which makes sure studies are conducted ethically and rigorously, and the ethics office, which oversee conflicts of interest for CDC leaders and advisory committee members, were also let go.

Something maybe worth noting is that all the frog costumes and signs and good-natured memeing came about because a wide spectrum of Americans saw someone in direct, brave confrontation with ICE—getting pepperballed and standing their ground—and thought “that’s awesome. That person is a hero”

Can report back from the Charlotte No Kings that "free Palestine" is now, if not the normie lib position, then at least fully accepted among the normie libs. Lots of signs and flags scattered about, no apparent drama at all.
Similarly, billion -> bajillion. These numbers are goofy, we need to meet the moment.
I think we should start pronouncing it Jigawatt. Economic collapse is looming anyway, we can get a little fun and quirky with it.
Premium newsletter: OpenAI promised to build a gigawatt of data centers for AMD, NVIDIA and Broadcom by the end of 2026, and 9GW more for Broadcom by the end of 2029. They need $400 Billion in the next 12 months - and to do several impossible things at once.

Yes it’s a hilarious emblem of male stupidity but the grim detail for me in this story is how much kids seem to unironically love Elon musk.

Greta Thunberg: “Israeli soldiers hit, kicked, starved, and tortured me”

• They placed a flag next to me, and anytime the flag touched me, they kicked me
• Whenever I raised my head to look at Ben-Gvir, I was kicked
• She was filmed while stripped naked

Al Jazeera is doing videos of the Palestinian releases and they're heart wrenching. One man was detained for over a year and was released to find out that Israel had killed his two kids. The youngest was three. Her birthday would've been on Saturday. He'd made a small bracelet for her in prison.

"We are still not being allowed to leave by ICE officers.” an EMT said on radio

Computers should detect if there’s a cat on the keyboard and disable it until you do a captcha. Imagine the Apple ad campaign.

Nobody wants it as a story but I have multiple NYPD sources who voted for Mamdani, are eager for his win in November, and who say their colleagues quietly feel the same.

They like that he wants NYPD to focus on crime, not quality of life enforcement.
Lmao is this supposed to be a bad thing?
Someone make a cartoon of Bruce Harrell telling AI Martin Luther King, “Now is not the time for hope.”
Downtown could have "like, a 10-foot wall" where people could talk to AI versions of historical figures. "How cool would this be if we had like, a 10 foot wall. It's interactive and it's historical. And you could talk to Martin Luther King."...

every single dem should be taking notes. this is how you message around trans issues

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.
I was wrong about this, alas 😔
I love the backlash to the Riyadh comedy festival because one of the free speech comedians is going to react to it by saying something they’re not supposed to on stage. And then MBS is gonna kill that guy!
