Yesterday, we learned that Jane Goodall has died. She was 91. Such a loss. I’m struck by the difference between her research, which was with primates in their natural habitat acting normally, as opposed the the “research” on wolves which studied only wolves in captivity, who do not act the same way or even close in their natural habitat. If someone did a study on humans but did it inside a prison using the prison population as subjects, we would instantly reject it. But if it’s on wolves – we just swallow it whole.<\/p>\n
Obviously I am not about to be able to go do the kind of stuff Robert Reich<\/a> describes here. But it does point to ways that younger, stronger, and more phone-literate people can conceivably get involved.<\/p>\n Press Watch<\/a> on Trump’s occupation of Portland. Dan says his question “raises questions about his mental competence.” To me, it actually suggests he may have some. Can you imagine any Fox-Sinclair-OAN watching cult-brain-frozen MAGA asking this? They seem pretty unquestioning to me. But I may be missing something.<\/p>\n A guest video from Robert Reich<\/a>. I can’t embed it because it’s in the “Shorts” format (More analysis on the shutdown tomorrow.)<\/p>\n
