A new study of 350,000 European adults screened for genes and surveyed for lifestyle determined that, other than being blessed with good genes, the 4 best things you can do to live past 75yo are (listed by the rank of the size of the effect estimate): 1. Don't smoke. 2. 150…
Beware of nihilism masquerading as leftism. There's a lot of that going around right now.
The argument that Trump would let states do their own thing--barring enforcing the Comstock Act as a national ban--reads differently when framed as letting red states monitor pregnancies and prosecute offenders--an ill-defined category that Trump suggests is broader than doctors.

“Hamas's political survival is all but assured, w/ or w/o Rafah. Why risk Palestinian & Israeli lives? Bring them home now!” Many who loathe Hamas won’t want to hear that. But it’s where pragmatic political realism & the humane determination to save 🇮🇱 & 🇵🇸 lives must lead us.

On October 7th and the days that followed, I was shocked by how many people justified the killing of Israelis by Hamas. I remember looking at some of the statements coming out of organizations that I respected and feeling horrified that they could glorify this kind of brutality.…

I want to emphasize the last part. Anti-Semitism hurts the protest movement, but protest leaders want to draw a sharp distinction between that and wanting to drive the Jews out of Israel. But wanting to drive the Jews out of Israel is an extremist, grossly unpopular position!
@RLangford18 @asymmetricinfo I've never said "the protests are driven by anti semitism". The point is that as long as there is a bunch of anti-semitism coming out of the movement (as there is) plus radical anti-Zionism that rejects the notion of Jews living in Israel, it is going to lose potential allies.
I don’t say this lightly. I think we exist in a culture of fear that cultivates an unreasonable paranoia about worst case scenarios. But it does seem to me that we are careening to a point where we are going to be lucky to get through graduation season without a Kent State.
I’m on the scene at UT Austin. Protesters sittting with linked arms in the center of the South Lawn as DPS surrounds them. Multiple arrests so far
Beware of nihilism masquerading as leftism. There's a lot of that going around right now.
@JillFilipovic has written the best thing you will read on the protests. jill.substack.com/p/leave-the-ki…
Another must read by @JillFilipovic. Don’t ignore antisemitism, don’t trust opportunistic politicians, don’t call the police on peaceful protesters, and don’t forget the horrors of this awful war. Leave the Kids (Mostly) Alone - Jill Filipovic jill.substack.com/p/leave-the-ki…
Just a thought, and ever so gently, maybe we are overly complicating this. Saying kill people who have political views X is affirmatively bad, it is probably (depending on context) protected speech but it is bad even if it is not anti-Semitic
For example, that Columbia "kill Zionists" student: I think the consensus is that his comments were antisemitic, yeah? Even pro-Palestinian Jewish protesters were quotes saying as much. But he never says "Jews," and *he* says he's anti-Zionist, not antisemitic. We all know that's…
@JillFilipovic While I have some issues with your conclusions, your wording in the last sentence in the 3rd to last bullet point may not be as clear as you probably want it to be. (I do wish I could be as optimistic as you re the whole of that sentence (re "many most?") but I am not.)
This is one of the best, most measured takes on the college protests I'd read since the whole thing started.
Against all of my better judgment I wrote about the campus protests and the very flattened conversation about student activism and admin response. A surely imperfect attempt to break through the black and white: jill.substack.com/p/leave-the-ki…
@JillFilipovic I disagree with some key points, but this is the kind of nuanced discussion that’s necessary right now. And yes, the focus *must* be on the Palestinians being killed as we speak 100%. There are also more in-between spaces, like many anti-Zionist organizers who oppose Hamas & war
No Motte, no Bailey. ‘Israel needs to cool it yesterday but no way am I joining up with this ‘anti war’ movement’ is a pretty big standard Jewish position
@JillFilipovic Why do we question the only Jewish country in the world? One very small country. Yes the occupation in the West Bank is a problem. But there are so many Muslim and Christian countries.
@JillFilipovic I take it on a case by case basis. Often the context says a lot about the intent.
@JillFilipovic This is a fair point, but why are people protesting? Is it because they are anti zionist or because of the treatment of the people of Gaza? I'd suggest the latter is true for most
They're primarily interested in traditional menswear as a reflection of bygone cultural values and can't actually speak to the aesthetics at work, which is also why they tend to dress poorly.
