All you need is a bit character to tell Idris Elba in passing that some white failhard was pretending to be him.
Spoiler: it’s because he died. The writers of a franchise whose main character has been played by seven actors across sixty years think they have to come up with a plot explanation for the character coming back after dying in the previous movie. radaronline.com/p/james-bond...

Perhaps the highlight of #APHA #APHA2025 for me was the presentation tucked towards the end of getaway day, where George Pro at U of Arkansas talked about how private equity has acquired 25% of existing publicly- or non-profit-run recovery centers were acquired by private equity since 2019.
Finally got around to reading @greenwell.bsky.social's BAD COMPANY. Turns out I DO I have room in my heart for more incandescent rage!

Okay someone remind me when the people at the rally are annoyingly aggro and when they're most likely feds?
(It doesn't help that I asked the guy next to me, "Are those two fuckin feds?" before realizing I was at a public health rally in DC and EVERYONE was fuckin feds.)

I strongly recommend everyone do research sometimes 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘧𝘶𝘯.
Look something up on Wikipedia. Go to the little citation. Follow it. Read the article it's referencing. Follow links to the original interview. Read the paper written by the interviewee
It genuinely makes you appreciate journalism

And I should emphasize, every time Newsom has accidentally sidled up to leadership, within six months he's hurled himself in the opposite direction in the name of some demented entitlement.
Selling out trans folks isn't new, it's just the latest symptom of his pathology.

This is why Gavin Newsom is a non-starter for me.
Sure, he's "a fighter" who's landed a few good punches on Trump, but that's not the same thing as a leader.
A real leader doesn't fight back against an authoritarian takeover by using the most vulnerable as his shield.

I keep seeing people say, oh, trans people must take a hit for the greater good and, first of all, no, you don't get to discard someone else's rights and second, we know from past experience that marginalized communities like theirs are merely the first to be targeted. They'll come for you next.

Lots of "and Freeman takes a strike, possibly one of the most brilliant not doing anything so alls in what has been a truly legendary postseason performance" to unsay.
Mainstream baseball analysis basically consists of people pretending to have memories of goldfish and acting as if their insights are significant. The genre does not allow for simple "hey, that happened, wasn't that a hell of a thing?" observations, which basically cover it all in the postseason.

APHA poster is off to the printer and I'm devastated to announce there are no references to '90s the Berkeley music scene in this one. (But I do have a policy brief coming out next week titled "Take Warning," so that's my consolation prize.)

More than that: peer review is done out of a sense of ethical and professional obligation, IT FUCKING SUCKS.
And it is the very pinnacle of racist-ass bullshit to suddenly treat it as a rarefied honor only when you see Those People getting asked to do it.
