    I got some pushback to the idea of replacing The Fish Tweet (my only good tweet) with a pitch for my eventually-to-launch-newsletter about conflicts between social-justice activism and science and how to cool them, so this pinned quote-RT is a compromise.

    The Trump administration argued court Tuesday that the government is not required to give soap or toothbrushes to children apprehended at the U.S.-Mexico border and can have them sleep on concrete floors in frigid, overcrowded cells.

    there is some serious jouissance in this quote

    "Don't use words too big for the subject. Don't say 'infinitely' when you mean 'very'; otherwise you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite." C.S. Lewis

    I loved this bit in the article, which seems exactly wrong. Like, if a certain type of ad "no longer resonates with our social world," presumably it wouldn't work (it's an ad!) & there'd be no market for it. You wouldn't need regs.

    2/ "It's okay, just for today," to like-police, even though I'm usually against it. Someone hop in there and check out all the white liberal and lefty types cool with using a racial slur to describe a black conservative.

    3/ We're such a rickety disappointment of a country in so many ways, and I recognize that some of our own communications regulation is silly, but still: Thank God for the American free-speech system. It's just way better than anything else out there.

    2/ I love the sooooooo thin veneer of science behind this. The Science Says that these ads are harmful, and therefore they must be banned. But the Science Also Says that being attractive does, in fact, bring social/romantic/professional benefits. But you can't say that anymore!

    Bonkers! Among other new guidelines, it's now *against the law*, in the UK, for ads to "connect physical features w/success in the romantic or social spheres" So suggesting that something which apears to be true, empirically, is true is now banned. Okay!
