If kids don't become proficient in AI now there's a real risk that they'll become proficient in actual tangible skills

Ensuring that all students are proficient in the use of Divining rods would be a better use of their resources

The crucifixion of Jesus is the most famous state execution in history, but he was not the only person Rome subjected to this excruciating punishment. This video (our most popular one by far) details how crucifixion was a tool of imperial domination and intimidation youtu.be/Emk21WbOFo0

The more you read the NYT, the less you will understand about the world

Really worrying development when even Trump (perhaps the least religious person to ever exist) begins invoking holy war language

One year ago since @drchristinah.bsky.social dropped this epic takedown.

you, a naive fool: i do believe there are some things the nytimes won’t both sides the nytimes:

Think that this guy’s crash out had more to do with frustration that he is making no headway trying to advance conservative talking points using liberal jargon than it did any “rude” feedback. 8k followers and precisely 0 likes on his pro-voter ID post lol

This guy’s temper tantrum is even funnier when you check his profile and see that he already tried turning himself into a martyr over his brave anti-DEI stance to absolutely no fanfare

“Young people”

Caesar, Augustus, Trajan… there’s no shortage of famous (and infamous) Romans. But every Easter we remember that one of the most well-known Romans ever was just a provincial governor who oversaw what he thought was an inconsequential trial of an itinerant preacher youtu.be/7zGY3CY3lzE

I don’t listen to Fearless Movement nearly as often as I should because it’s a quite lengthy double album and I can’t stop it once I start but each play is a treat. Highly recommend if you’re interested in very modern genre-defying jazz

Really dreading the 2028 cycle where 75% of the candidates and 100% of the media/professional chattering class will claim that asking candidates to take a position on anything beyond “I am not Donald Trump” is a divisive litmus test that we cannot afford

Someone do a wellness check on Tyler Cowen

I'm not a historian or whatever but is this seriously the first time a ruling class has dehumanized THEMSELVES like this lmao

I do truly believe that this man has no interior life

Dying empire embroiled in a quagmire of its own making attempts outlandish conquest to restore faith

Just got the first legit non spammy sponsorship offer from the channel that wasn’t for AI slop or a blatant scam and it was for a “traditional masculinity” supplements company lmao. Not opposed to selling out in principle but like come on please not right wing grift shit

What I wouldn’t give to know Trump’s inner monologue as he sat in the Supreme Court today and had to listen to people talk about not him

Cautiously optimistic based on live reports coming out but it looks like Trump overplayed his hand here and a court that is desperate to cling to legitimacy by pretending it doesn’t serve him had no choice but to trying looking independent as Trump put his thumb on the scale

Is “Fewer have more” a good way to run an economy or does that sometimes come back to have profound consequences?

Very exciting episode this week as the great Adrian Goldsworthy joins to talk about the Crisis of the Third Century youtu.be/adC9oCBo90Q

Do you ever think about how every piece of satirical cyberpunk media was actually too optimistic?

The @economist.com looks at the ancient Roman history of global currencies—as compared to Trump (and using Eichengreen's new book). I still don't think Christianity undermined Roman governance (cf. Constantine who invented the solidus! This was frustrating reading). www.economist.com/finance-and-...

The current strategy of the centrists in the Dem party is to vilify Hasan but praise Reagan. I’m way too old to have any opinion (positive or negative) about a streamer but if you think Reagan is less objectionable than Hasan you aren’t to be trusted

Not surprised that this kid has connections to the Claremont Institute, pretty sure that’s who facilitated the interview with the NYT as the paper looked for a “concerned bystander”

The Tea Party was awarded its own response to the State of the Union (in addition to the Republicans) by major networks who were desperate to pretend it was an organic movement of grassroots activists and not just an arm of the GOP. Can anyone imagine them granting a No Kings response to Trump?

See you on Sunday at the Twat Church

Yes there are tons of braindead Nazis who treat Germanic migration as a threat to civilization! But there's another strain that claims that "racially pure" Germanic migrants saved Europe by destroying the degenerate "mongrelized" Roman empire and restoring whiteness. This is the more dangerous idea

Do you ever think about how every piece of satirical cyberpunk media was actually too optimistic?

uh, why do you ask

It is pretty funny to be such a braindead Nazi that you call Germans irredeemable uncivilized barbarians in your quest to defend the honor of white people.

Tribunate X Goldsworthy - the collaboration you’ve all been waiting for drops on Sunday

He opened an email titled “You have been accepted into the Having a Girlfriend club! Open to set up your account”

Me on my way to sign "having fun" into law

Still true BTW

This video is having a mini-crest over on YouTube right now - if you could watch, comment and like that could help push it over the algorithmic hump and I would really appreciate it

Declaring war on the god neptune ass president

You always know the war is going well when the GOP starts talking about space.
