This is huge: “A drug that provides near-perfect protection against H.I.V. with shots just twice a year will be made available at $40 per patient annually in low- and middle-income countries, offering new hope… making lenacapavir a realistic choice in countries with constrained resources.”

Sorry to lib out, but seeing a major network TV personality look straight into the camera and say "this is authoritarian bullshit and you should be disgusted and be part of making it stop" has me feelin a certain way.

A sleeper political issue of the next few years is the rising costs of electricity. AI & data centers are driving up demand & the Trump Administration is making it harder to add clean energy supply. I joined @chrislhayes.bsky.social on #WITHpod to talk about it: open.spotify.com/episode/32ps...

Again, I note the huge overlap between 1) cancel culture terror about supposed totalitarian speech rules of the left, and 2) very rich, powerful men being enraged to discover that social media could be used to accuse them of the sex offences that they have in fact committed

I do just have to say (there’s so much in here about baseball, you guys): The Mascots episode of Bob‘s Burgers is the single best depiction of minor league baseball in recorded history. Field Of Dreams was trash.

It’s impossible to explain minor league baseball to anyone who hasn’t gone, and impossible for anyone who has to not know exactly what you mean.

I have a lot of thoughts and opinions about baseball, but chief among them is that a sparsely attended minor league baseball game on a warm afternoon that slides into a cool evening is America. Argue with all the people sitting near you, eat ice cream out of a hat, briefly fall asleep.

This may have been the most insane and incoherent four days of his presidency. Tylenol, the U.N., I hate my opponents, other countries are going to hell, this escalator's broken, I'm mad at a TV comedian, I like Ukraine now. It really feels as if some minimal tether to reality has snapped.

If it can be believed, the details of this story are actually *worse*. The girl apparently has autism, is a US citizen, and ICE had been chasing them on public roads. The father lived in the US for 22 years. Local cops had to intervene and return the girl. He was arrested two days later.

If Dems put up real candidates in strong R districts next year -- both Congress and state legislatures -- I bet they pick up a bunch of surprising seats. This has the potential to be a highly unusual wave election. But we need horses to have a horse race. Better ppl have to run. For everything.

I don’t want to dog on any enthusiasm but the first widely-read case on autism in the U.S. was published in 1943 (Kanner et. al), the term introduced in 1911 (Bleuler), and cases described as early as the 1700s (Tos. Fuller, 1710-1790). Acetaminophen was discovered in 1878 (Northrop Morse).

The whole premise for upholding that regime as constitutional was it's this uniquely important and scarce public resource, and now it's basically irrelevant but that's become the tail wagging the dog.

It's really rather dumb that the ownership and market structure for video content almost nobody actually watches over the air is still built around the legacy regulations for restricting vertical integration in over-the-air tune-your-dial-to-the-right-frequency local broadcasting.

A question for the crackpot heroin addict with a worm eating his brain in charge of HHS. If Tylenol causes Autism why was Autism first identified in 1912 and formally named in 1943 But Tylenol was not invented until 1955? Nor was Tylenol widely available until the early 1960’s. #ProudBlue

There it is. My advice is to hold off on resubbing for a month or 2. It's incredibly hard to get people back on a monthly sub, especially when they don't have a specific draw. They're going to be desperate in a few months and it'll show in the deals.
