The Atlantic should be ashamed to have published Jamie Kirchick's "DSA is a 'parasite'" screed. Beyond that, though, no one should credit Kirchick's thoughts on DSA or the Dems. He is a bad-faith operator here, undermining those he has always sought to undermine — because he is a neocon.
of the dodgy odyssey takes, 'odysseus is meant to be a stoic badass unaffected by war' probably winds me up the most. in the text the king of the phaeacians correctly guesses odysseus is a veteran of the trojan war because he keeps bursting into tears whenever anyone mentions it
A few months ago I gave a public talk about satellites at a local brewery & afterwards one of the attendees asked me if I'd like to collaborate on an OpEd to spread the word about the growing problem of space junk. Long story short, today it's on the front page of the digital WaPo: wapo.st/4yqgbLn

Lindsay Graham was, I think, one of the most contemptible figures in US politics, a titan of respectable bipartisan foreign policy for years who displayed no principles, no insight, and no beliefs beyond a gleeful and vicarious love of violence. An indictment of every institution he served in. RIP.
This doesn’t so much “raise questions,” but rather answers them. He’s totally transparent about this!
PoliticoTrump denied disaster aid to four Democratic-led states. Yet two days earlier, he had approved FEMA disaster aid for six Republican-led states. The move is raising questions about whether he’s injecting political motivations into emergency management decisions.
lots of online “left” folks have what I call Amber Frost Syndrome: a sincere pro-labor stance corrupted by an anachronistic fantasy of who is a “worker.” they picture a strapping man who works in a factory and has Lenin’s politics mixed with Andrew Dice Clay’s personality. IE, a guy who doesnt exist
Garrett PetersenA lot of this fundamental problem comes from the friction points between "the average working class person is a minority woman working in health care", the pundit class deeply resents their spreadsheet jobs that don't code as manly, and how a lot of WWC voters have serious Hitler particle exposure.
I truly don’t see how this country can go on if we don’t ban online sports betting. This story is stomach-turning.
