🇦🇹🇮🇱🇯🇵🇺🇸 Trump has a King 👑 Midas 🤴complex. He even dies his hair and face to look like gold. And he surrounds himself with it. … Just listen to him. Gold. Gold. Gold. …. Ridiculous. … n.b. Liberals can be just as toxic as MAGA.

「欠」の読みは「ケツ」にあらず 漢字学者・阿辻哲次 www.nikkei.com/article/DGXZQO... 戦後に作られた当用漢字表に入っていない漢字は、法律や公用文、新聞・雑誌などでは使えなくなりました。 その字が必要なときには「漏えい」(漏洩)のように仮名で書くか、「奇跡(奇蹟)」のように意味や発音が近い他の漢字に書き換えることに。 温泉地にある「間欠泉」もかつては「間歇泉」と書きました。 ただ、これを「歇」と同音の「欠」を置き換えたものと考えるのはいささか早計なのです。

Let’s hear from President Trump about what kind of president would start a war with Iran.

After a great game we get a drunk, jock-sniffing fanboi in the locker room on our dime, then misogynistic belittling of the women’s team who accomplished the exact same thing by the president and men’s team. What a way to kill a vibe. Enjoy the pedophile’s speech, boys.

Wow! This is some top-notch investigative journalism. The report claims the 3 million Epstein files released are only 2% of the total. The massive scale of what’s still missing is hard to comprehend.

Getting rid of DEI is establishing the new Jim Crow. When you aren’t legally obligated to have everyone at the table, you will purposely exclude those you don’t like from the table.

Today, work on the Gateway Tunnel Project goes "shovels down" as Trump illegally withholds funds for this critical tunnel. This is about thousands of jobs and over 200,000 commuters. There's no time to waste on this project.

Last night, Trump posted a video to his social media platform that contained a racist clip showing Barack and Michelle Obama as monkeys. It's still up:

This temporary restraining order is just the first step in restoring funding for the Gateway Tunnel Project. We will continue fighting to hold Trump accountable and get the project up and running again, and New Jerseyans back to work.

Wishing for a recovery and good treatment.

A few weeks ago, my dad was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. I won’t lie—it's been incredibly challenging for me and my family. Now, I’m embarking on a journey to answer the questions so many of us face when it comes to providing care for our loved ones. I hope you’ll join me.

Die Veröffentlichung der Files in dieser Art und Weise ist eine Verhöhnung der Opfer - und erschwert gleichzeitig die Wahrheitsfindung, weil so viel bereits online kursiert. Journalist*innen werden vermutlich Monate oder Jahre brauchen, um durch alle Dokumente zu pflügen und sie auszuwerten.

Many routine procedures were designed for male anatomy & are uncomfortable or take longer in women. Colonoscopy. Urinary cauterization. Spinal procedures. Airway management. Venous cannulation. Difficulty is often blamed on anxiety, tension, low pain tolerance. theconversation.com/routine-medi...

It’s not how much work you do necessarily that matters. It is the breadth of knowledge and alternative ideas that you are exposed to. The diversity of the student body. Having the opportunity to learn about something you otherwise would never have exposure to: Kurdish & Finnish studies. PLO history.

How much work you do at university - not just which university you attend - matters to your future employment prospects. One reason why we, as educators, must find ways to encourage our students to use their brains and learn, not defer all their thinking to LLMs.

Nasra Ahmed, a 23-year-old US citizen, was arrested and detained by ICE. She was held for TWO DAYS. ICE agents handcuffed her, called her a racial slur, and she was knocked to the ground so hard she got a concussion. This cannot continue happening. ICE needs to leave.

It’s come to this: “Catholic members of the US armed forces could in good conscience consider disobeying orders to attack Greenland if such orders were issued, according to Archbishop Timothy Broglio, the bishop responsible for the pastoral care of US military personnel.”
