Wow that’s so cool that executive orders can modify the constitution if the corrupt Supreme Court says so :) I love liberal institutions they work great :)

The thing people should know about ZZ Top is that those early records, like Tres Hombres for example, are the gold standard for how rock records should sound. Immaculately recorded records, true auteur stuff, albums that set out to be exactly what they are

It doesnt exactly inspire confidence to Crowley if Evers is doing interviews in his place and telling Hong voters to get in line as its unity message, especially when Crowley doesnt stand for anything. Like, as contradictory as it sounds, the guy is a fuckin loser.

The Democratic Party’s mega-donor class is horrified by the rising tide of progressive populism. Too bad. It's time they recognize the real choice is between democracy and tyranny, between an economy that works for all or one that works for a small sliver at the top.

One time I had an order delivered to a hotel and it arrived at a different building entirely that was across the street and around the corner. I was not thrilled but I zooooomed out and came to the conclusion “It’s okay if whitey has a bad day sometimes”

Democrats stop standing in the way of progress challenge: impossible. The primary for WI governor is in 3 weeks. Tom Tiffany is the trump backed Nazi. There are many Dems in the race. Last week, an establishment Dem dropped out cuz he was polling in 4th/5th. This week, the other 1/3

OK, sure. The CDC should have prevented the diarrhea lettuce. But I think it's more damning to our government's credibility that no agency prevented "Mountain Dew Dunkers".

Hi. So like, we can’t eat fruits or veggies, we can’t breathe the air, we can’t afford anything. When do we all get sick of this nonsense and rip the system to shreds? I’m so tired.

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.

My coauthor Jay Falk's postdoctoral fellowship was terminated by the Trump administration for documenting the hummingbird example in this paper.

FIGURE 2 Open in figure viewer PowerPoint Operational biological sex definitions applied to hummingbirds (Bleiweiss 1992; Bleiweiss 1999; Bleiweiss 2001; Diamant et al. 2021; Falk et al. 2022; Falk et al. 2021) where sex is operationally defined by binary plumage phenotypes in the field. Each row depicts a wild individual hummingbird with morphological traits (beak length, plumage coloration), behavioural traits (territoriality) and their unobserved gamete type. This example illustrates how the same individual can be operationally defined as one sex in the field (based on external phenotypes) but classified as a different sex based on their gametes (which cannot be easily observed in the field), highlighting how definitional choices shape scientific reporting of sex.
Andy Lee, PhD@andylee.bsky.social · last mo.

In our Viewpoint (onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1...) we synthesize the gametic definition (outlined by Janicke et al below) and other definitions of sex (e.g., multivariate definition). We contend that is NO consensus on “biological sex” (maybe a consensus isn’t actually necessary…)

NEW: The six opinions in the birthright citizenship ruling have a lot to teach us about the U.S. today. The 5-4 decision was the least the court could do to keep the United States of America on a constitutional path. Tonight, at Law Dork:

This country was one person's vote away this morning from putting any birthright citizen in danger of being deported tomorrow. We are so much closer to the abyss than we think. Man oh man.

I would like for America to do something about the fascist trillionaire who runs an AI-generated child-sexual-assault-material and revenge-porn factory pretending to be a social media site before he topples another government or kills another hundred thousand children.

I know the list is endless but I genuinely think trashing the legitimate congressionally chartered org for celebrating the 250th to instead hijack our national assets and taxpayer funds for his personality cult grifter crap should, in and of itself, be fully sufficient to merit removal from office.

linuscatt · 1d ago I worked at Smithsonian, specifically raising money for 250th. What I want people to know is we secured millions of private philanthropy to host a month long Folklife Festival on the mall, "The Festival of Festivals". Was going to feature well known festivals, think Burning Man, Farm Aid, Grand Ole Oprey etc. as well as smaller local and regional festivals from across the U.S. and territories. Goal was to feature truly the best and most beautiful creative expression in music, dance, arts and craft traditions, food, community etc. Can't name names but plan was to have headliners every night for free concerts.... Think the types of names who might be affiliated with the aforementioned large festivals. Stars were willing to perform because was under banner of Smithsonian. It had to all be scrapped bc the administration would not release permits to host on the mall. The money went elsewhere, but our nation was robbed of what would have been a once in a generation cultural moment.
