We have to see the logic of the killings as well as the killings themselves. The horror is a truth in itself. But it is also a sign of a political logic, one known from the totalitarian regimes of the twentieth century. snyder.substack.com/p/lies-and-l...

@gaslightanthem.bsky.social I saw you guys in NH Wednesday. It was the first time I heard of your band. I am really sorry I hadn’t discovered you earlier. Great show I will catch you the next time you are in New England. I was very disappointed with Counting Crows.

The single biggest factor influencing academic success of children is if their parents read to them. I cannot even comprehend the ignorance of feeling that reading to your young children is boring. It doesn’t even require effort it was the high point of my day as a young dad.
Everything that requires effort can be boring to some people. Ignorance is a no-effort exercise. www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...

👀 "When faced with 46% tariffs from Trump, Vietnam fast-tracked a $1.5 billion Trump golf resort. Ignoring its own laws, Vietnam rubber stamped the project. Just 3 mths after paperwork was filed — and a few days after Trump’s trade negotiator met w/ Vietnam’s trade minister — groundbreaking began."
Washington has a major corruption problem. From accepting jets from Qatar to selling pardons, the corruption hurts all of us. If you know people who regret their vote or didn’t vote, try to gently educate them about the dangers of this administration. mindyschwartz.substack.com/p/do-republi...
Why aren’t these people suing the government for damages?

Good job, buddy! You finally caught up to the rest us from 3yrs ago. Putin doesn’t want peace. You’re his puppet, not friend, & you’re not smart enough (or at all) to think you can “deal” with him even if you’re both despicable criminals. #SlavaUkraini #MomSky apnews.com/article/russ...
