In one of the most notable moments in sports history, Kenyan runner Abel Mutai was just a few feet from the finish line, but became confused with the signage and stopped thinking he had completed the race. A Spanish athlete, Ivan Fernandez, was right behind him, and after…
Woke professor Albert Einstein going out of his way to promote diversity, equity and inclusion during the Jim Crow Era
I'd love to give y'all some examples of what I heard at doors in rural Missouri to help you understand what folks out here say when confronted with a progressive message. I will say that we knocked over 5k doors and made as many calls. Also, we had near zero data to go on...
THREAD. Two Harvard professors published an academic article calling for 500,000 more armed cops, who they say will arrest 7.8 million more people per year. The article reveals alarming flaws in elite academia at a time of rising fascism. This is one of my most important posts.
Yesterday, I attended a conference at which an influential financier shared this unpublished map. Look at it. The estimated death toll is 2-3 *billion*; the timeframe is 20-30 years (previously: 50). Segments of the elite have simply 'written off' large parts of the Global South.

From the calcium in our bones to the iron in our blood, we really are made from starstuff. It's even in our DNA – carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen and phosphorus were all forged in ancient stars and distributed throughout the universe to become planets, puppies and you!
I still don’t think people understand what it means for 33 million people to be displaced. That’s 6 times more people than those internally displaced in Ukraine from war, that’s roughly 90% of the population of Canada. That’s how many people are internally homeless right now
We see the healing effects of Merrick Garland’s most modest statement. Sometimes, saying nothing is not neutral when it leaves a void for perpetrators to fill with lies and mind manipulations (so as to design their own exoneration or impossibility of prosecution).
A problem with the way objectivity manifests in U.S. journalism is on display as our news system uncritically passes on GOP outrage about the Trump raid. Statements are just stenography and rarely strained with an eye on credibility. (1/4)
If you didn't watch the trial, your understanding of this case is backwards. medium.com/veer/justice-o… #JusticeForJohnnyDepp #StopEnablingNarcissists #JohnnyDeppDeservesAnApology #PutAsideIdeology
Just a reminder that the Oscar winning feature film PARASITE was edited with a 10 year old copy of Final Cut Pro 7. It’s never been about the tools.
Pay attention: Big data loses to good data. “A survey of 250,000 respondents can produce an estimate of the population mean that is no more accurate than an estimate from a simple random sample of size 10… data quality matters more than data quantity” nature.com/articles/s4158…
NEW: Over the past week, @JuddLegum and I have tried to identify the individuals behind “United for Clean Power” - a purported “pro-climate” group saying Dem’s climate legislation isn’t good enough. Here’s what we found: popular.info/p/the-people-b…

Where did the whole “Herbert likes bigger WRs” thing come from? Been seeing it around and I’m not sure it’s as much of a Herbert thing as it was a Tom Telesco thing
Travis Kelce: Vaccinated and heading to the Super Bowl. Aaron Rodgers: Not vaccinated and hurt 4 plays into the season.
I'm running to replace Rep. Ilhan Omar in Congress, but with all due respect, you just endorsed a Presidential candidate who incited an insurrection. I'd recommend sitting out all arguments about loyalty to our country for a while.
Expel from Congress, denaturalize and deport!
I’ve never seen 99% of the Chargers fan base so unified behind the idea of one major move. I think we collectively know this could be the biggest positive impact in franchise history. This could be a moment that brings us all together. Or, if they somehow fumble this…
@H_Wohl @Katja_Thieme Sabotaging an existing, reputable academic journal — when you could just start a new one — might be the pettiest thing I’ve ever heard of.

The first week of the strike, a young actor (early 20s) told me she was a BG actor on a Marvel series and they sent her to “the truck” - where they scanned her face and body 3 times. Owned her image in perpetuity across the Universe for $100. Existential, is right.
The greed is almost a legendary comic trope - one fun fact - when I was a youngin- I did a film (with a boom box ) and somehow I got points - net not gross. Never expected to see any money - but the film became quite famous - so about 10 years ago - I looked again at…
