Adam Liptak should be fired for this. It's not some sort of minor technical error or a debatable issue. He's simply lying.

This deserves a quoteskeet because this will not be business as usual: this will be worse. In the event Biden drops out and Harris becomes the nominee, the republicans will launch a coordinated campaign of misogynist racism (misogynoir) against Harris, the likes of which we have never seen.

"Among other things, the law stipulates that contracts can’t include or allow for tuition sharing and can’t grant an OPM ownership over faculty members’ intellectual property." Minnesota's Democratic trifecta continues to do great things for the state.

America's farcical pier will be "permanently removed" from Gaza in a few days. It cost $230m, it lasted for less than two months (and it was functional for only half that time), and in that time it delivered the equivalent of a mere ~500 trucks of aid.

So a thing about AI is that, not understanding the material itself, it cannot understand what the gap is in someone else’s understanding. Students already have access to materials that will repeat important points over and over. They don’t need more.

permit me to add tobacco trade and traffic in enslaved Africans to this 'mix', the scale of which was enough to attract continuing interest, of course (including the Crown intermittently) but must remain unknown? Bloody people have no consideration!

Unsurprising given that the Crown couldn't even 'manage' the Sussex coast? I suppose we must be content (for now) knowing that 'smuggling was ubiquitous'?

Yes, the NYT crusades against Biden's age. Beyond Trump being unfit for office, they could write a thousand stories about Dobbs losing at the ballot box. They bury any real reporting in fucked up headlines and dozens of dogshit op ed hit pieces.

Venn and MT had sway over the City Artillery Company, but Sir Paul Pindar and Sir Nicholas Crispe were also members in the 1630s (Adamson, Noble Revolt, 65-82). They were also on the 1647/8 Ordinance creating a Militia Committee for Tower Hamlets, AOI, 1057-8.

Measles is endemic & resurfaces whenever vaccination rates drop below 95%. Until Covid, measles was the most infectious disease known. Measles is not trivial. Vaccines save lives. Do not go unvaccinated & vaccinate your children!
