Lot of traffic on the roads considering the rapture n all.

They’re telling me there was this non addictive pain medication without Tylenol in it that was UNFAIRLY taken off the market in 2010. We’re BRINGING IT BACK TO STOP AUTISM AND MAKE AMERICA HEALTHY AGAIN

Can’t wait to call my 98yo WWII vet grandfather inlaw and tell him he’s a terrorist.

my mom took tylenol when she was pregnant, which made me super focused on menswear and now i have a million followers on twitter

Someone really needs to check on tom Brady’s dogs.

Can large language models stand in for human participants? Many social scientists seem to think so, and are already using "silicon samples" in research. One problem: depending on the analytic decisions made, you can basically get these samples to show any effect you want. THREAD 🧵

At 2:30ET today there will be a hearing on “the harms of AI chatbots.”Testimonies are now up. None of these are good for the companies. Big focus on kids. (I wouldn’t let my kids use Character.ai; my experience was ‘creepy product w/nasty dark patterns’) www.judiciary.senate.gov/committee-ac...

You want to be alive, but they want you dead. We’re a new, well, funded democratic group that thinks you can meet them halfway.

Whew. 15 min break. Let's recap: > CDC officials learned of Covid vaccine recommendation change via X post > RFK Jr. can't show scientific evidence for changing childhood vax schedule > RFK Jr. gets no briefing from agency public health experts > CDC officials "very nervous" about new ACIP

How the fuck does Schumer still have a job?

A new court filing alleges a similar scene has played out in recent months at probation offices in Santa Fe and Albuquerque: As probationers have shown up to meet with an officer or sign paperwork, they have been whisked away by federal agents to immigration detention facilities or even deported.

DUCK AROUND, FIND OUT! With our duck delivery in tow, we waddled up to the Hill to let our representatives know that it's time to send the Quack-In-Chief packing. #ImpeachRFK

If *your department head and your dean* can be removed for supporting your colleague in teaching in their area of expertise, then you have no academic freedom. In a functional sense, you don't work at a university at all.

Forget the national guard, send the army corps of engineers to Chicago to work on this god forsaken airport.

“I’ll approve and edit this manuscript proof quickly before I board my flight.” Opens online proofing software and entire computer proceeds to revert back to 16MB of RAM on a dial up connection.

Hold me back

People literally bled & died fighting against corporate interests, robber barons, corrupt local & state politicians, cops & hired killers, & the federal government & US military for better working conditions for the rest of us so reflect on that today for just a bit while you're doing whatever else.

Which just shows that abandoning trans people to cater to the far right is a losing proposition. It's not only morally bankrupt, it doesn't even help you win elections or stay popular.

wow

I got the complaint in the horrific OpenAI self harm case the the NY Times reported today This is way way worse even than the NYT article makes it out to be OpenAI absolutely deserves to be run out of business

🚨BREAKING: DHS Secretary Kristi Noem has just unlawfully placed signatories to the Katrina Declaration on administrative leave. See the letter below…🧵

$80K unlocks 3D texture on the album cover. I can almost taste the Ends hole

How do we convince the right wingers that ALL private equity is woke, not just Cracker Barrel? Do we just keep getting rid of pictures, forcing them to learn to read?

You’re not dropping a single, asshole. If you’re actually knew anything, it would be criminal not to reveal it now. But of course, this is a bullshit publicity stunt.

It’s like having the CA Prop 65 warning label on things when I don’t live in CA, but somehow even less effective.

Those pesky wires always needed repairs so we got rid of them. Sure, it’s 120° inside your home, but our “shareholders” made a fortune.

An M.I.T. study found that 95% of companies that had invested in A.I. tools were seeing zero return. It jibes with the emerging idea that generative A.I., “in its current incarnation, simply isn’t all it’s been cracked up to be,” johncassidysays.bsky.social writes.

I remember my dad leaving for a year to help rebuild the levees after Katrina. I witnessed first hand the massive destruction of Florence, turning Wilmington into an island as the roads were washed away by a coal ash ridden river. In a world of growing disasters, we need FEMA more than ever.

Full post from Jacqui Heinrich at Fox News of the next stage of military deployments for domestic law enforcement assistance. I will leave her reporting of the application of the Posse Comitatus Act to others who have analyzed the relevant statute. I need to go read up on it again.

If you've got some shit to say about Mark Twain's boat, now is the time

Several notes: 1. OVER 1000 QUACK-O-GRAMS ORDERED! 2. We will deliver them in DC in September! 3. We have a recycling plan! 4. Yes, we will have a full camera crew for delivery! 5. We are working on an adopt-a-quack scheme for specific districts. 6. I don't give a DUCK if you don't like it.

why is "Harvard dropouts launch" always followed by "a wearable Torment Nexus" and not "themselves into the sun".

I actually feel like the fact that not a single one of her colleagues remained in solidarity should be the biggest story at this point, particularly in 2025, because abandonment and capitulation is all we're seeing from predominently white and cis male Democrats.

Sometimes I see people like 20 tweets deep into an argument with Grok. Like, what are you doing brother? You are trying to win an argument with a vending machine.

We are on the cusp of AGI, definitely for real

Folks, I’m glad the authors have written it, but horrified that they had to

Not to be out done by Trump... New Mexico @govmlg.bsky.social declares a state of emergency for the city of Española & area pueblos in response to a 'significant surge in violent crime, drug trafficking, and public safety threats' Reports KOAT @abc7.bsky.social

If you're enraged by Trump ousting homeless people from DC, remember Albuquerque gave him the idea... 8 people thrown out of Coronado Park sued the city for violating their constitutional rights. Now the DA trying to get the lawsuit thrown out www.krqe.com/news/albuque... @krqe.com

A dark money group that campaigned against capping attorneys' fees and other changes to medical malpractice law in New Mexico and refused to disclose its donors was funded primarily by high-powered trial lawyers and law firms, recent filings reveal.

IMHO this is law enforcement and a violation of Posse Comitatus, full stop, no matter whether they carry out arrests or not.

I just can’t believe our Reichstag Fire is the Big Balls Beatdown.

As far as I can tell, Keir Starmer thinks "Labour" means "the UK can must shall and will become the country we are as seen in 'Children of Men'".

Likening PhD holders to a (non-functional) algorithm is a form of dehumanisation & anti-intellectualism that is a bellwether for contemporary fascism. Essentially it's a typical — if not the archetypal — first step towards fascism: to dehumanise, deskill, defund, and, ultimately, fire the academics.

Per multiple sources, the EPA will cease recognizing employee unions tonight, removing their ability to collectively bargain.
