“MAGA,” whatever that even means now, demands that you lie to them. Say anything truthful about outcomes, no matter how constructive, and they get angry, call you a doomer. Never seen anything like it. They demand dishonesty. A delusion bubble.

They will do literally anything except pass an election integrity bill.

This is one of the best college football signs I’ve ever seen and it’s 100% true.

I'm obsessed with how people just disown this film.

A lot of the people virtue signaling about the need to preserve Down syndrome would leap to use this technology on their own fetus. This sort of luxury belief fades away quickly when your own child and family are affected by it.

There's fifty Muslim countries in the world You wouldn't give up your life in the Christian west to live in one of them That means our civilization is a failure You can deny it as you wish, as most Muslims do, but this is the important part for us in the West: When we clamor for change in functional societies we now call home, the native populations will think: who are these people from broken countries with these ideas? If they're so helpful, why didn't they fix their countries? If their countries are unfixable, what about their countries are so broken, and how will this culture we have imported break our country?

This video is probably the best explanation of Israeli people that I have ever seen. It’s Lior Raz, the Fauda actor, discussing his experience of coming back home to Israel on October 7 to help. But this is who they are as a people —

I was told the LGBTQ community was under attack here….?

ed sheeran, your silence on greenfield lesbian bar is deafening

I'm very grateful that I completed my formal education before the age of generative AI. I feel bad for kids going through school right now.

It is extremely clear at this point in AI development that, regardless of risk or revenue or any of the other stuff discussed on X all the time, things are just going to keep getting weirder. Just super, super weird.

I am happy to join 6,000 prominent scholars, legal experts to sign a letter rejecting Gaza genocide charge. jpost.com/israel-news/articl… include historian Niall Ferguson, Israeli historian Benny Morris, Holocaust historian and former US Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism Deborah Lipstadt, Tel Aviv University professor emerita and former Yad Vashem chief historian Dina Porat, historian and author Simon Sebag Montefiore, UCLA professor Judea Pearl, and Brandeis University professor emeritus Jonathan Sarna.

So if I have this Nikole Hannah-Jones story right, she actively campaigned to keep a failing, overwhelmingly black school segregated and then sent her daughter to that school as some sort of weird racial justice sacrifice and now her daughter can't read at a high school level despite attending a school that spends an absurd $50,000 per student because the wildly overpaid teachers never bothered correcting any of her assignments All I ask is that Democratic Thought Leaders not behave like a disingenuous right-wing parody and they can't even manage that these days

Saying "Zionists" instead of "Jews" doesn't make the hate any more acceptable. The Government of Canada now says it plainly: antisemitism includes anti Zionism. We didn't need a report to see it. But now it's on the record. publicsafety.gc.ca/cnt/rsrcs…

Come on, man. Are we going to pretend that Down syndrome is anything other than a tragedy and devastation for families? Anyone pretending otherwise is coping. We can love people with Down syndrome while still being grateful if we can eliminate anyone from ever suffering from it again.

This woman is completely detached from reality. She is literally living on a different planet.

I’m just gonna say it: dual credit is destroying high school with crummy off-campus versions of high school classes, for college credit of dubious value. High schoolers should take high school classes (including AP for college credit) at high school.

Woke 2 is here

"Najya didn’t fail to learn fractions because her classmates were black. Her teacher didn’t repeatedly fail to show up because the school was segregated. Assignments didn’t go unread, unassessed or ungraded because affluent children attended elsewhere. Leadership failed to ensure that the basic functions of schooling occurred reliably. These are failures of institutional competence and a devastating challenge to Ms. Hannah-Jones’s theory of change." Yours truly for the @WSJ wsj.com/opinion/good-schools…

If I am forced to choose, I’d have to go with F. I can manage living in LA or SF for the rest of my life despite my problems with those cities.
