Strangely Trump got the media to say : it's because McRaven isn't a Clinton fan that he's credible.

Saying "Men Aren't Women" on Twitter Now Classified as 'Hateful Conduct'
Twitter is now classifying feminist speech that claims men are not women as "hateful conduct" and they are removing it and banning the users.

A good reminder that outrage is not new or driven by any single individual. Our culture has turned to one of uncontrolled emotional outburst rather than critical thinking, outraged reactions rather than considered responses.
@NPR
Sounds like a demand for a better, more objective documented way to confirm identity, but attempts at that are deemed voter suppression.

Student debt in the U.S. now stands at about $1.5 trillion. It's a number we often call a crisis, advising students to avoid borrowing if they possibly can.

North Korea says it will deport a U.S. citizen who entered the country illegally from neighboring China last month — a move seen as a conciliatory gesture aimed at maintaining ties with Washington.

Thanks for the instance. It is one of the nicest I've seen. And it may well be the most interesting local feed as well.
One small (and I think easy) suggestion I have is to change your favicon to be something a little different from the other instances. Maybe something orbiting the M like a planet or electron or something? That would just make it easier to click the right icon on my shelf and to find the correct tab when you are watching other instances simultaneously.

The next time you hear how Trump is a spoiled little rich boy who only pays lip-service to the military...

I wonder why people criticize mastodon and other social media outlets for being places where you listen to people's opinions. Isn't that the purpose of most forms of expressions?

Agreed. The problem is not Jodie, but it feels like the writers room is split between SJWs writing an after school special and one lone writer trying to write good sci fi.
It's not entertaining. It's barely tolerable.
Each episode could just be named : The Doctor delivers a condescending lecture about ___.
They could totally fix this in the writers room or with the director, they've ruined Jodie's doctor. I can see why Amazon sad giving away the season early on for $3. Glad I'm not out more.

@ClintSmithIII What’s more, providing universal basic income would lead to an explosion of entrepreneurship, creative activity and community work, is especially combined with universal health care. We would remake America within a generation
