Alexandra Petri: Every time JD Vance tells a story, a sinkhole swallows 30 people: This is the story I must tell to raise awareness.
"Sometimes, without warning, at the end of a speech or a cable news hit, JD Vance will activate his neck frill (picture one of those lizards, but taupe) and hiss. A corrosive acid will shoot from his throat and onto the faces of anyone he perceives as a threat. It is important that we keep saying this! It is important that we keep saying this, or people might not know that it was happening. It is not literally happening, but isn’t it a compelling visual? Isn’t it a powerful story?"

It's frankly disturbing that no one I follow is talking about Israeli state sponsored terrorism and how they implanted explosives in thousands of pagers imported into Lebanon and exploded them all at the same time killing at least nine people and injuring THOUSANDS. (As of 3 hours ago when this story was last updated.)
And... we're tired. So tired. Obviously not under nearly as much stress or exhaustion or danger as the people in Gaza and Lebanon and the West Bank that Israel is targeting, but we've been raising a ruckus and protesting for nearly a year, and we don't seem to have accomplished anything, and it's just so hard to keep it up in the face of so much resistance and seemingly zero progress.
And I know that's what they want, but... it's still hard.
The Times of Israel is reporting they were supplied 5 months ago.
"Al Jazeera quotes a Lebanese security source saying that the weight of the explosive placed in each device was below 20 grams, and that the pagers that were blown up were imported five months ago"

It’s Not New — It’s Our Legacy | Filosofa’s Word
Race-based hatred and violence are nothing new in the United States and did not start with J.D. Vance’s lies about Haitian immigrants. In fact, racial hatred and violence are a large part of our history, the history that some would whitewash away given half a chance. What we see today is just a continuation of centuries of intolerance, racism, and bigotry in all its forms that lead to violence and ultimately murder.
Trump Media, $DJT, breached an agreement with an investor that helped the company go public, and must grant them a larger share of its stock, per CNBC.

Ocean scientist, climate solutionist, and all-around awesome person Ayana Elizabeth Johnson is my guest editor today --and it's a big day. Her new book, What If We Get It Right, was just released!
She talks about how 40% of young U.S. voters across political affiliations say they will only support a candidate who prioritizes climate action, tens of millions of dyed-in-the-wool environmentalists aren’t voting, and to vote for candidates who get it on climate.

I keep praising Fedora Silverblue and its Universal Blue offshoots for their ability to simply rebase your customizations on a different OS release. In this article, Jiri Eischmann adds another great benefit of these atomic Linux distributions: being able to easily pinpoint the release when a regression crept in.
