"All is lost" narratives are popular because people generally do not want to take action. Taking action is tiring so if all is lost, you are off the hook. Nothing is more seductive than not having to do anything.

Veronica Ewers is stepping away from elite cycling ahead of the 2026 season. This mutual decision was made with her long-term health and well-being as the top priority as she continues to recover from RED-S.

We must keep calling out those that cave to the Trump Admin, and the latest is Northwestern.
As part of their "deal," NU will pay $75 million, stop vital research, renege on agreements with its students over the war in Gaza, and more.
Throwing your students under the bus to please Trump. Shameful.

If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

Q: Are you affirming that you think President Trump is a fascist?

TRUMP: That's okay. You can just say yes. I don't mind.
