“Court packing is never ever something you should do” is not a tenable position. It’s trivial to imagine a court so extremely anti-constitutional (and yet 34 senators won’t convict) where court packing would be the necessary lesser evil. The only question is if the Roberts Court is that bad. (it is)

Mamdani just gained a bunch of fans…if they weren’t already. Living in a safe space should not be so much to ask. If you’re a slumlord, you deserve to lose money. Love that someone is finally doing what they were elected for. #SheShed gothamist.com/news/landlor...

You got to respect being willing to do stuff like this

1. States are not just allowing AI data centers to be built. States are spending BILLIONS to incentivize tech giants to build data centers. And its creating major issues for state budgets.

if youre not on the race riot app you are living in a bubble, you have to contribute financially and provide free labor to the race riot generator or else you are in a bubble

Uh so someone burned a cross in Grant Park yesterday. Grant has enormous amounts of security theater designed to keep Black children out of the park. But cops can't ID the perp or explain how they allowed this to happen: blockclubchicago.org/2026/06/09/b...

The Speaker of the House is not supposed to spread conspiracy theories based on vibes, believe it or not

Democrats should also be really thinking now about insane it's going to feel if we win in 2028 and Musk is babbling about the need for a race war and calling the president a satanic pedophile while also being the most important government contractor in the country.

An AI generated recession is going to hit like crack (feel great for about 30 seconds and then destroy our lives)

A 40% pay increase, the right to walk off the job if federal agents (i.e. CBP/ICE) pose a threat to them *and* the contract expires in April 2028 so they can demand more ahead of the Olympics. Shoutout Local 11, shoutout unions.

i'm pretty convinced that every brain dead and liar rightwinger is talking about the LA mayor race being rigged so they have "justification" to rig or cancel the 2026 or 2028 elections

Over on Elon's website @rokhanna.bsky.social is pouring gasoline on rightwing's paranoia and conspiracies around California's election. This is not just idiotic - this is disgraceful stuff from a Democrat.

kids are probably one of the easiest kinds of person to put in the hospital. you are not special

journalism is important, and it is accordingly important that the news is not controlled by billionaires.

Sure, fuck it

Talarico gave an absolutely bullshit, unacceptable, transphobic response to that trans rights question. Being opposed to gender affirming surgeries *that minors aren't getting* is nothing but playing into the bigoted fears of cis right wingers and feeding the "they're transing our kids" frenzy.

This is a place where every day you wake up, you could experience everything from a basketball player crashing into our old mayor to a person who's celebrating a new business that's opening

lol what an obvious conjob www.nytimes.com/2026/06/08/o...

Playing on their turf never ever wins, not morally, not politically. Here's a response: "this is a wedge issue targeting kids, getting into their doctors' decisions. Next, they'll come for your hysterectomy, your vasectomy. And it's because they can't talk about the economy." Say Fuck You back

Another big disconnect in the AI debate is academics/AIbros/AI pushers assuming they understand the methods, theories, debates, and philosophies of disciplines they are not trained in, and appear to have no desire to understand, but are POSITIVE gAI is necessary to those disciplines, nonetheless.

I think if companies want to acquire clean ingredient food brands and profit-optimize them into dogshit, then that’s their right. People should be allowed to crash everything good into ground for short term profits ❤️

hey quick question, am I having a stroke

I don't think Anthropic really meant it this way but what an amazing demonstration of why generative AI's energy consumption is only getting worse, and dirtier. "Improvements" only come from nesting chatbots within chatbots, rather than any fundamental smarter design. It's Bitcoin x 1000

BARS

Reminder, MSG is going to be filled to the brim with only people who can afford $7500+ tickets. Do not expect great things from that crowd.

I wish the vampire lestat existed. I wish he was a real guy

so happy for my LA friends and fuck spencer pratt 😭😭😭😭

The managerial class is being scammed in real time by their own egos. If this was a project introduced by an employee it would’ve been killed in a month but because the executive sect has AI psychosis they’ll tolerate the fact that Anthropic doesn’t appear to provide realtime token spend info!

My unpopular movie opinion is that most Quentin Tarantino movies are really bad

Hm. YMMV but I believe the Knicks and the White House are—what's the word I'm looking for? Oh right—lying

The Bears might as well be in the suburbs already for how bad transit is to that stadium.

Sources stressed the Bears don’t have to move to Indiana if the McCaskeys find the common decency they’ve lacked for most of my lifetime.

I've been to like 4 Trump-attended games and it's really a terrible experience for fans. It's low on the list of "atypical President stuff that Trump does all the time" but it's clearly such a huge waste of time, a waste of our money and a sign the guy has nothing to better to do

Why is the Sun-Times granting anonymity to Bears ownership people in this article? There is absolutely no reason for obscuring who is giving them "information" in order to try and leverage the city and state for public resources.

They’re really going all in on “AI” everywhere, huh? I haven’t seen this coordinated a push on anything in higher ed since every college & university across Europe and North America (public, private, HBCU, liberal arts, R1, big, small) cracked down on Gaza protests! www.ajc.com/education/20...

The Obama Center is obscene

AI and data centers leave goliath-sized environmental footprints globally

Not enough people on here talking about the vampire lestat coming out soon

Not really surprising given that 95% confidence intervals are super common in academic papers which are a substantial portion of the training data. It doesn't know what those 95% mean, because it doesn't *know* anything, just that this number should appear near the word "confidence".

Thought this was me for a second but I got blocked for a “WTF are you talking about?”

Whirlpool CEO is the most should have been fired years ago guy of all time

“The youth are doing this because they don’t have anywhere to go” and now we are criminalizing them for existing in one of the few places they could go. It is in fact not illegal to hang out on the beach. It’s kind of the whole fucking point of having them.

NJ governor Mikie Sherrill's only been in office ~4 months, but since she sent State Police in riot gear to arrest Delaney protesters—before announcing how she'd address hunger and labor strikers' demands—residents who just voted her in are talking about ousting her. my latest @us.theguardian.com

Basically every national story in politics these days is “unqualified person terrible at job, disaster results; person promoted”

People like Kane and many many others that do care about human art and the creative process have been a beacon of hope while trying to navigate making art in this current climate.

The absolute funniest irony of the Bears stadium situation is the same people who bitch about taxes in Illinois are the ones bitching that JB isn’t raising our taxes so a football franchise worth billions can build a new stadium

This is the obvious inevitable consequence of some people having way, way, way too much money.

lol this is beautiful
