Our government illegally invaded Venezuela and captured their president and first lady to take over their resource production and to project power and control into South America, threatened to invade Greenland to do the same, and ICE agents harassed and executed an innocent US citizen. Get angrier.

Texas is banning Plato excerpts from philosophy courses. For context, Plato founded one of the first institutions of higher learning in all of Western civilization. 2,400+ years later, fragile conservatives are trying to censor him.

Politicians & lobbying groups have been trying for years to prosecute the low-level dealers, plugs, and even just friends-who-use-together for homicide when someone dies from an overdose. ChatGPT coached a kid to take drugs with it for months then gave medical advice that was so wrong it killed him

They are not buying the Trump administration's claim that the fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Good was somehow justified.

Almost like despite proclamations to the contrary, they are getting the message that they can use “vehicle as a deadly weapon“ as an excuse to fire on people

Last week @theverge.com published my essay exploring the limitations of large-language models. This week, that same essay is cited by a federal judge in Michigan to distinguish the process of human reasoning from what these models do. Very, very gratifying.

I saw a clip of Anne Hathaway today from an Amazon show portraying a woman with bipolar disorder who had been diagnosed at 15. It's based on Terri Cheney. The show doesn't at all engage with the fact that teen girls are overly misdiagnosed with bipolar disorder. www.healthline.com/health/bipol...

The movement that will deliver progress for all Americans will be born out of the fight for Black liberation. It will not come from anywhere else. The systems that hold all working class Americans back are rooted in anti-Blackness.

They’ve laid off so many people that the government is now getting its economic data from DoorDash.

They will make slaves of us come hell or high water

This is a very good book! @greenwell.bsky.social is great

Wow, a Long Island jury awarded $112 Million to 674 immigrants who were unlawfully held by county police so they could be handed over to ICE

Cher, why are you awake at 4am? Oh, my beagle was crying and needed something urgent. Oh, I hope she's okay! She's fine, apparently she desperately wanted to go for a car ride...

8 week classes are not for the feint of heart

Also, if you want gender neutral bathrooms, make all the bathrooms gender neutral or have men's, women's, and gender neutral bathrooms. Do not have men's and gender neutral bathrooms. Either erase gender or make it wholly inclusive. Do not ONLY erase the women.

If you want to have a gathering for women, call it a gathering for women. If you want to have a gathering for women & non-binary people, call it a gathering for women & non-binary people. If you want to make non-binary people sad, call it the Women’s Community Gathering and put us in the fine print

Thanks, Google.

Imprisoning children destroys their lives. It is inhumane and they are often abused while incarcerated. This is despicable.

This feels so utterly American

What is happening at Goddard is absolutely devastating. We are losing history. We are losing an incredible amount of human talent, skill, and knowledge. Rebuilding it will be impossible same for same. Industry can not absorb the people or the equipment. This is undoing space science in the US.

Rand Paul: "The reason we have trials & we don't automatically assume guilt is what if we make a mistake and they happen to be people fleeing the Venezuelan dictator? ... off our coast it isn't our policy just to blow people up ... even the worst people in our country, they still get a trial."

once again, when pressed on where trump gets the authority to take an action, vance’s argument is, essentially, that trump is sovereign

the betting platforms can't open markets on Trump's death for obvious reasons, but Kalshi just so happened to open up a "Trump out as President" market on Saturday

The Trump administration repeatedly claims they are all for "the American worker" and then continues to lie about, take away rights from, harass, intimidate, and retaliate against their own workers

It's been FOUR years since I filed an NLRB charge against Apple, which was investigated and sent to DC recommending charge issue within MONTHS. It took THREE years for charge to issue and a hearing to be scheduled. When Abruzzo was fired, and Carey nominated, the hearing was cancelled.
