terrible move. history tells us the correct play is to abandon the city and defeat your adversaries at sea
Kimberly Giulfoyle is reportedly "holed up" at the official ambassador's residence in Athens after being asked to resign by President Donald Trump, as new allegations emerge about her efforts to get wealthy businessmen to cover a luxury SUV debt.

"In the states examined in this analysis, a drop of approximately 20% in inflation-adjusted rents—as happened in Austin, Texas, and Minneapolis after those cities made reforms—could reduce poverty by 18% to 26% and child poverty by 21% to 38%." www.pew.org/en/research-...

I will never get over the absurd arguments people made regarding aesthetics and neighbourhoods to oppose the REM de l’Est. And how cancelling it did not bring about some hypothetical better project. The east end is languishing in long commutes and uncertainty more than four years later.
Montreal rejected a REM expansion project because it would have put elevated trains on this road. After seeing it in person, this road is an abomination and would be greatly improved by elevated trains down the middle.

So-called “inclusionary zoning,” the practice of requiring home builders to rent new apartments at a loss to low-income tenants, is a tax on new housing that worsens the housing shortage and raises rents overall in exchange for a handful of means-tested units. It’s bad policy!

If DOJ can extract $8.5m from Langone under bogus False Claims Act assertions relating to gender affirming care then I expect the next Dem admin to extract nothing less than $850 billion from GOP slush fund vendors like Palantir and SpaceX.
They keep dropping these on Friday afternoon for a news dump. www.justice.gov/opa/pr/doj-s...

Absolutely lost my shit at this co-op mode for Hearts of Iron, which you play as the Army, Navy, Emperor, and Government. All have their own win conditions aside the Government, which lost the game automatically in 1925. docs.google.com/document/d/1...

The only reasonable thing here is to never allow another TPUSA speaker on campus. Liability is too high
Attorneys for Charlie Kirk's family say his death resulted from a string of "reckless decisions" by Utah Valley University officials that left him exposed to a rooftop sniper in a wrongful death notice that signals a possible lawsuit. https://cnn.it/4yFGoFd

Bottom line: We need better messaging, but we can't message our way out of this. We need a political system that incentivizes elites to support the democratic process and penalizes those who seek to undermine it.
Extremely impressive field experiment by @nmalhotra.bsky.social et al. had few effects on election attitudes among conservatives in TX despite being "exposed to an average of 20 online videos, 18.5 cable TV videos, 23.9 display ads, 3 text messages, and 3 postcards" www.science.org/doi/full/10....

This is seismic news for fisheries scientists. Northern cod is *the* iconic symbol of total fisheries collapse due to overfishing (and other factors) *and* the iconic symbol of a complete failure to recover for decades afterwards. This is like announcing the complete recovery of bison on land.
For the first time in over 30 years, Newfoundland and Labrador’s Northern cod stock has been deemed “healthy” by Ottawa. www.canadianaffairs.news/2026/09/05/i...

there are many serious reasons to follow scientists on here but also for “it glows in the dark, like all lantern sharks”
There’s a species of shark called the ninja lanternshark. It glows in the dark, like all lantern sharks. It’s called ninja because the scientist who discovered it was explaining her discovery to family at Thanksgiving and then her young cousin shouted “ninjas are cool, call it the ninja shark!”

Sorry it just occurred to me that there may be people who haven’t seen clip from the Quibi show where Rachel Brosnahan plays a woman dying because of her golden prosthetic arm and I needed to fix that
You cannot kill Quibi, unlike Rachel Brosnahan’s character in the Quibi show about a woman with a golden arm

so according to the CDC, *foodborne illness* is responsible for about 930 deaths a year. "food-induced illness" is a made up term RFK is using for basically every cause of mortality minus suicide.
RFK Jr defends measles: "In 10 years, there have been 3 measles deaths in America. There are now about 1.2 million deaths every year from food-induced illness. The media and certain demagogic politicians are constantly trying to scare us about infectious disease."
