This is exactly what Vance means when he tries to spin childcare plans as supporting "families to choose whatever model they want" for childcare. Listen to them. They are showing us the world they want to create.

Can NBC hire @michaelhobbes.bsky.social to mutter along under JD Vance, sarcastically repeating every stupid thing he says, through this whole debate? "Just let law enforcement do their jobs at the border. All we gotta do."

It is absolutely unhinged to bring your sparkling water maker with you on the commute to work. Buy a second one for the office. Pre-fill a few bottles. Anything. Except don't bring the damn machine in your bag. This is chaos.

An experimental intervention in the 1980s raised certain test scores by two standard deviations. It wasn’t just tutoring, and it’s never been replicated, but it continues to inspire.

Yes!! The casting decision made me uncomfortable, especially given that it felt like the primary queer representation. Made the "be who you really are" theme feel brittle, and seemed to play into "libs want to turn your kids gay/trans and brainwash them into the woke hivemind" rhetoric.

Okay Uglies is not a good movie but is it just me or is it particularly fucked up that the main villain who wants to force everyone to have surgery to fit in and not be themselves is played by a transgender woman
