At last night’s candlelight vigil for Renee Nicole Good, Bishop Rob Hirschfeld of the Episcopal Diocese of New Hampshire announced he had asked the clergy of the diocese to get their affairs in order and to make sure they have their wills written ...,

Same script…different country

Nailed it.

Alabama had 717 murders in 2023, with a population around 3.5 million less than NYC.

Me: I don’t see the appeal of boxing TV: OK but what if it’s professional boxers savagely brutalizing influencers Me:

Happy 100th Birthday Margaret Thatcher.

Not only this is amazing because part of fascism is the destruction of joy but it also makes it look ridiculous that the military is being deployed to put a stop to this

Rowan's own college admission story is: he was pre-law at Cornell but didn't like the coursework so he called Penn and they said sure and put him into the Wharton undergrad program. Maybe that explains why he thinks university admissions are a joke: his was. web.archive.org/web/20240314...

this made me genuinely laugh out loud twice. and the bit about swords felt like a teacher talking to kids.

Critics including Elon Musk have assailed my @cato.org colleague Alex Nowrasteh's study finding that most politically motivated terrorist killings in the U.S. since 1975 have been done by persons on the right. Alex responds to the critics here and explains his methods and classifications.

Thanks so much for reading ♥️ For people who haven’t read it, in 2021 I wrote about the last men’s only “flophouse” hotel in Chicago, co-published in the Chicago Reader x New Republic: chicagoreader.com/news/the-las...

Being interviewed by Terry Gross ruined all other interviewers for me. "Well prepared" doesn't even begin to cover it, and she is just so generous in the conversation. It's like playing tennis with Serena Williams but she only wants to keep the volley going as long as possible.

Sean T. Collins dives into one of the strangest, yet most stylish, episodes of THE PRISONER to mine swingin' '60s style for all it's worth! buff.ly/ZhpDfvS

everything is terrible so here’s the swedish chef doing rapper’s delight

Everyone loves this mf he's a rockstar to the people. no wonder the Democratic Party and the NYT hate him. He's having fun and he's likeable, two things they absolutely can't relate to in any way

Here’s a thread of cheese fries you can get at soccer stadiums in the U.K.

You'll notice that a key trick of Trump's immigration psyop is Miller's lie that Trump was only going after "criminals." I know why you didn't believe it. However, these people did, which is why they appear in court. And so did ICE, which is why Miller screamed at them to target Home Depots.

Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

So unemployment up. Jobless claims up. Inflation up. GDP down. Dollar plummeting. More wars abroad. Soldiers on the streets at home. By every objective metric, this administration is a disaster.

There are more of us than there are of them. There are so many more of us than there are of them. That has to be worth something. That's worth something right? You would think someone could do something with that fact. www.welcometohellworld.com/there-are-mo...

This is Manhattan specifically which is the largest rally. But there were protests in all 5 boroughs

First, this is correct. Second, notice how Pete runs us through the stases: -what is it -what do we call it -is it good or bad? -what do we do about it? Clear thinking is persuasive thinking.

INSTANTANEOUSLY subscribed to this!!!!!

I don’t think this dude will win— I don’t think the bosses of Capitalism will let him— but it would be awesome if he did

@gregsargent.bsky.social is doing important work on Trump's deportation gulag. But this misses a key point. Stephen Miller lied his ass off to get Trump elected. He lied abt TdA, he lied abt number of criminal aliens, he (obviously) lied abt Haitians, he funded a shit-ton of false ads abt migrants

again, this staggering idiot — this living monument to gross stupidity — is basically the intellectual guru of the sitting vice president

as a #simulation dork this is already catnip but it's also just *artful*.. I want to have a 4k stream of this and leave it up all day, it's difficult it is to get a sense of the scale, but supposedly hundreds of feet.. I really like the raindrop-like drops of lava as it hits the rocks

This is a view from the surface of Comet 67P. The busy particles in the foreground are cosmic rays or bits of dust and ice. The dots moving in the background are stars.

Amazingly slimy piece of shit.

Key takeaway from the AI conference I attended - 10 years from now we'll wonder how we ever functioned without AI agents and we'll chuckle to ourselves. Then we'll pick up our machetes and continue across the wasteland, keeping to the shadows to avoid the roving gangs of cannibal raiders

Tech bros genuinely want us to only have three friends because when we exist in community with each other we heal and help and share resources and assemble collective power and when we are burned out and isolated and lonely it's easier to sell us solutions wrapped up in the siren song of convenience

This whole clip is truly unbelievably great. I am genuinely astounded by how good this is.
