"The border between content that glorifies eating disorders and content that is simply part of our culture’s fanatical fixation on thinness, masked as “fitness” and “health” advice, is not always clear." 😑 theatlantic.com/technology/a…

New: Texas AG Ken Paxton subpoenaed 404 Media for confidential reporting about an internal Google privacy incident database we pubbed in June. If Paxton wants the database, he can get it directly from Google. Our lawyers formally objected to the subpoena:

The Nuna TRVL LX is basically perfect for anyone. I love this stroller. There's another brand of stroller that's way overhyped (review TK) but Nuna, imo, is far superior consumerreports.org/babies-k…. .

Donald Trump has said (sometimes) that he would veto an abortion ban if Congress passes one. But if we see a national abortion ban, it won't come from Congress--and a Trump win alone could make it possible. Here's my latest with Reva Siegel in @politico: politico.com/news/magazine/2…

I was not the biggest fan of the Pockit stroller, which some parents have said can tip over easily consumerreports.org/babies-k…
I DID, however, love the new Nuna Swiv! I sent it back to CR HQ a few weeks ago and I actually MISS it. Despite having a trillion other strollers in my tiny house rn

If you need a new day-to-day stroller, whether you live in a suburban or urban environment, I think the Swiv is a fantastic option. It's pricey but worth the $ imo consumerreports.org/babies-k…

NEW: I obtained internal emails from city government of Springfield, Ohio. These emails show the absolute chaos caused by Trump and Vance after claiming Haitian immigrants were eating pets.
Threats, hateful emails, media bonanza. A nightmare.
