For the Love of God, Stop Microwaving Plastic. A study of baby-food containers shows that microwaving plastic releases millions upon millions of polymer bits.

Not just bad for babies, bad for all of us. Plastic is such a double-edged sword, I swear.

The U.S. and its partners have tried to use aid conditionality to modify the Taliban’s policies. A different approach is necessary, writes Romain Malejacq and Niels Terpstra in this week’s Foreign Policy Essay: https://www.lawfaremedia.org/article/why-international-leverage-has-failed-with-the-taliban

What is pissing me off about armed nazis in Watertown #Wisconsin trying to shut down a #drag #pride event is the utter silence by most of the media about it.

“A neo-Nazi group have protested a Pride event in Wisconsin calling for "blood" while waving Swastikas in a vile display, Daily Express US reports.”

This is what threats of hellfire and damnation sound like to non-believers. Why use weak arguments?

Nice to see the US economy decoupled from the recession in China.

5 years ago, a recession in China would have directly effected the US economy.

Not so much now.

It's now TWO YEARS and 204 days since Donald Trump's Jan 6 terrorist attack. In any other first world country he'd already be charged. Instead Trump is running for President where he's spewing more lies to delegitimize our democracy. Long past time to Indict trump for Jan 6!

Karen Agnifilo Friedman’s best guess: the two cases to be heated before the election are AG Bragg case and the Jan 6 case in D.C.

I am so pissed off this morning: our prime minister is prepared to burn the planet on the off-chance it helps him get re-elected. Today's action are what he should be condemned for come the 2024 election.
