i read stuff like this and can genuinely angry at guys like jd vance who insist that this country belongs to some narrow vision of the "native born"

“I brought this horrid creature into the world, and now I must take him out!” Winfrey said

"Stop this nonsense. No one wants this."

Once you see it, you can’t not see it.

I'd love a browser/general software extension that adds a "No, fuck off!" button to any pop-up suggesting "AI" "help" with something --- and the option to send exactly those words to the company producing the software.

rfk jr wants to kill your kids, it’s really that simple.

1. They want us sick and dead. 2. They want to destroy the very idea of empirical evidence.

Those boots must be super tasty.

LEAVITT: PRESIDENT TRUMP'S HUMORS 'INCREDIBLY' BALANCED

Put me squarely in the “loathe” category.

Senator Kelly is correct. Plus a Public Service Announcement: KEY section of Department of Defense's Law of War Manual is 18.3.2.1. The VERY rule on the "requirement" to refuse illegal orders gives as its paradigmatic example of what is "clearly illegal: "orders to fire upon the shipwrecked."

There aren't really shortcuts to writing, the process is bumpy, you take the thing in your head and try to explain it to others. You can't delegate that to a machine that can't really see into your head. 🧪🩺 #ScienceSky You must struggle through it because the struggle is the point.

Hey @nature.com, have you got an explanation for how the hell THIS happened? & especially why you accepted a paper with such a bizarre piece of genAI slop in it?! & more to the point, why we should take you seriously at all going forward? www.nature.com/articles/s41...

A bit too on the nose for thanksgiving

Can’t say I’m surprised, but great job by Bloomberg getting the receipts.

Dear Mr. Pope, I will go back to church if you excommunicate JD Vance.

Keep in mind that this serial liar also promised a hundred times during the campaign that he would be able to end the war “in 24 hours” with “one phone call” to Putin because he has “a great relationship” with him, “knows just what to say to him,” & “it won’t even be that hard.”

There was civilization in the Americas before the settlers arrived. The other work being performed here is to erase that and present settlement as the arrival of civilization instead of the annihilation of another

🕯 Eternal memory to all victims of Holodomor. A moment of silence.

Why does everything have to be SO FREAKING WEIRD

Poor lampreys.

This “peace plan” sure sounds like the end of Ukraine’s sovereignty.

You ever just sit down and realize that the rise of 21st century fascism is capital's answer to climate change?

It’s good to explain that the CDC is lying and vaccines still unequivocally do not cause autism, even if it just reaches one person on here who has doubts. But the fight is out there, not in here; and the time to let go of the information deficit model of science communication was decades ago

I learned the word “healthism” today—the idea that health and illness are solely a matter of individual morality and willpower, rather than the complex outcomes of biological and social processes, most of which are beyond individual control. In practice, this is what healthism sounds like.

Vaccines based on mRNA can be tailored to target a cancer patient’s unique tumor mutations. But crumbling support for cancer and mRNA vaccine research has endangered this promising therapy

We should get 10 months of federal taxes refunded.

Editors have a really hard job, and the good ones can make something unreadable readable, and the great ones can make something unreadable into something good. But they're basically invisible, until someone tries to write without one.

$2k is less than a lot of people’s deductibles but ok

This moment demands fighters, not folders.

Every. Damn. Time.

No, please. Don't strain yourself. We'll do it. 🙄

Man, I can’t wait for a new generation of leftists to absolutely run these moderate quislings out of office and just rip to shreds these bogus reports and studies that billionaires paid hundreds of millions of dollars to corporate-stooge strategies to produce.

Great article from @virginiagewin.bsky.social showing that across the Federal science ecosystem, research that benefits the American public is being delayed or completely halted, and remaining programs are being consolidated under close partisan political control. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

How is this real life?

Flip This White House

democrats of all stripes should be rallying around kat abughazaleh asap. it doesnt matter where you stand ideologically. trying to jail dissenters is fundamentally unamerican and 100% fascist. democratic leaders at all levels should be making noise about it. you dont need a poll or focus group.

Just replace the CEOs with AI and save a lot more money.
