Happy St. Stephens's's's Day to all who celebrate!

This is impacting my district on Christmas Eve. PG&E is focused on investor profits over California residents. They have paid off Sacramento politicians. It's time to make it a customer owned utility.

Christmas pudding!

A little sunny break in a week full of rain.

Waymo needs way mo contingency planning for disaster situations. “They’re still building the plane while they’re flying it,” Ms. Nicholson [who served as San Francisco’s fire chief for five years until she retired last year] added, “and I think it’s irresponsible.” Gift article.

I don’t mean to sound extreme, but I don’t think we should have torture camps for people with criminal records either.

Absolutely horrifying. This is what Bari Weiss doesn't want the American people to see.

Wildly different things, tasks, techniques, subspecialties being lumped into "AI" and then being conflated with each other, doesn't help. Different types of models vs the techniques to train them vs the tasks they are supposed to accomplish, all under "AI".

The Dunning-Kruger Effect and the Streisand Effect, when merged, become the Bari Weiss Effect

Philosopher Kate Manne (author of Down Girl: The Logic of Misogyny) on the real and troubling conspiracy theory about Trump and Epstein. Worth a read. katemanne.substack.com/p/the-actual...

Perhaps we should film a debate between a concentration camp guard and an abandoned toilet over whether CECOT is good. Brought to you by Bank of America.

What a Freudian slip!! 😆

Neither is herpes, but I’ll keep doing my work without either.

Jake Paul losing on Friday and and Andrew Tate getting drubbed on Saturday is pretty great. If that other thing we’ve all been waiting for could happen on Sunday, I’ll start believing in God.

Their utter incompetence is astounding.

What a fiasco! Power goes out in the city and all the Waymos freeze.

'This was one of the worst fights imaginable, a grueling clinch affair that often resembled a crappy Greco-Roman wrestling match. Chase DeMoor makes Jake Paul look like Floyd Mayweather, and yet he pretty clearly beat up Tate anyway. For “Top G” nation, this was about as embarrassing as it gets.'

Can wait to light one of these bad boys on fire! It's my favorite Christmas custom.

"several experts liken to a sort of eugenics." Nah, not sort of like -ish. Dude is a straight out eugenicist.

Apparently, black is the new orange.

This is the shit that'll get them. We already have footage that all the public has seen (even the dopes) & photos of them together. A smart crook would leave a few photos/emails/notes in the files to show that what contact he did have with Epstein wasn't as bad as others, but instead they do this

It turns out the abyss was actually staring at someone it knows behind me. Embarrassing.

These fragments are all that remain I sing them now to keep from going insane A very merry Christmas to you, If you have survived www.youtube.com/watch?v=JlJ8...

The hypocrisy is the point.

The end goal is eugenicist. RFK and his ilk know that this will make vaccines more expensive and time-consuming — and therefore marginalized children are most likely to fall through the cracks. This is about killing kids who aren't born to privilege. www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...

100% agree. I just wrote to the new supervisor of D4 today asking him to respect the wishes of SF voters and leave Sunset Dunes alone. Also, enough with all the recalls! If you don't like their policies, vote them out in the next election. I'm so sick of SF's recall fever.

For the record, the law states that "No record shall be withheld, delayed, or redacted on the basis of embarrassment, reputational harm, or political sensitivity, including to any government official, public figure, or foreign dignitary." www.congress.gov/bill/119th-c...

Breaking: The Trump administration announces that they will not be complying with today’s deadline to release the full Epstein Files. They insist the files will be released in the next “couple weeks.”

This is not how math works. And Lutnik knows it. Is it any wonder that Donald Trump bankrupted several casinos and had to steal, lie, and cheat to ever make money

I respectfully disagree with the jury’s verdict in the Judge Hannah Dugan case. The trial evidence showed that Judge Dugan did not obstruct ICE agents from arresting an undocumented immigrant. Let’s see what happens on appeal. Meanwhile, our support for Judge Dugan continues.

I love my two blackout drunk Minnesota sons

She is and always will be a POS.

Press conference on Brown University shooting: —Suspect is Claudio Nevis Valenti, 48-year-old man, Brown Univ student, Portuguese national. Last known address in Miami. Took his own life tonight.

BREAKING: Man suspected in the shooting at Brown University has been found dead in a New Hampshire storage facility, AP source says.

We lost Kirsty MacColl 25 years ago today 💔

Lurie is a joke. It should be noted that neither he nor Trump are lawyers. “The request is for records between the Mayor and the President. That relationship does not constitute an attorney-client relationship... The president is not the mayor’s attorney. The mayor is not the president’s attorney.”

Important read, if you can stomach it.

perhaps going to be the most poorly aged tweet of all time soon

BREAKING MS NOW: FBI deputy director Dan Bongino has quietly told confidants he plans to formally leave his job early in the new year and will not be returning to headquarters to work this month, according to eight people briefed on his account. www.ms.now/news/bongino...

Ireland is the 4th freest country in the world according to the new Human Freedom Index 2025. 🇮🇪👏 Irish residents enjoy exceptionally strong freedom of movement, of religion, of relationships, and of expression. Only the Swiss, Danes and New Zealanders rank higher. www.cato.org/human-freedo...

COVID vaccine linked to lower risk of death regardless of the cause, large new study www.euronews.com/health/2025/... Very obviously this is a correlation study. Still, key message: NO big harm signal. On the contrary. NO "turbo cancer". NO "sudden death." Etc. #VaccinesWork

Hmmm.... I'm beginning to think they may not have even an idea of an outline for a concept of a plan.

I've tried and failed a couple times to write a post explaining how serious this would be. NCAR is globally essential to our climate change response. This can't just be replaced. Every scientist in the world will be doing climate research with one hand tied behind their back for at least a decade

Just read "an utility owner" and realized I would have written "a utility owner" instead. But I would also write "an historical event" instead of "a historical." I don't know if these differences are because I'm an immigrant in the US or just some idiosyncrasies of mine. How would you write these?

FBI Director Patel is busy talking about his romance with his girlfriend on Katie Miller’s podcast at 6pm.

I don’t understand how a guy with 360° peripheral vision can’t catch anyone.
