These are the redactions we're dealing with. My 1st grader could do better. #EpsteinFiles

Climate change in the Alps, proudly sponsored by the fossil industry.

Here's something for people interested in #18c history. The personal archive of a member of a global merchant family, with connections in different points of the Spanish and British empires. War between Spain and Britain affected their operations (Nicolás was captured by a British ship).

Something often not factored into climate change projections: the amplifying feedback between climate change impacts, governance failure, armed conflict AND serious impacts on health care and human health. We are not prepared.

Hundreds of millions of Chinese will be displaced, at least for part of the year, by climate change impacts in coming decades. The temptation to migrate across borders and resettle, under armed PLA protection will be great. Significantly increasing the risk of nuclear conflict.

Here is a snippet of the 60 Minutes segment on Trump's barbaric CECOT concentration camp that was pulled by editor-in-chief of CBS News Bari Weiss. 🥹👇

President Obama and these posts alone are going to get us through until MIDTERMS 💙

What will be the economic impacts? Those that pay more will have less disposable income, those that opt out, face losing everything due to medical debt. www.cbsnews.com/pittsburgh/n...

The concentration of wealth in the hands of an elite few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy. When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, the American people don't have a voice. The result is demagoguery and corruption.

I see the Panthers are being invoked. I like to remind people about what the U.S. government and local police forces did to the BPP. This recent book is useful. press.princeton.edu/books/hardco...

Little Stephen Miller probably doesn't know that Sinatra was an early advocate for civil rights. Refused to perform in segregated venues. Was instrumental in the integration of Las Vegas hotels. And was a donor to MLK and the Southern Poverty Law Center headlining fundraisers.

As a 20 year child abuse prosecutor veteran, most states have no statute of limitations on child molesters! There is a reason for that. Children are afraid to outcry. Molesters are adept at covering their tracks. Trump is an idiot.

Hi, I'm Frank Sinatras' great niece. Stephen Miller can suck a $&#@. He doesn't get to sit at our table. Racist mfer.

"Actually, the Constitution is best understood through the framework of Roman Law" is just "Charlie Brown had hoes" for bobbleheaded law dweebs. No it isn't. That isn't true.

This is perfect. The DOJ's embarrassing snafu with disappearing redactions was the fault of Elon Musk. Musk cancelled government subscriptions to Adobe programs that would have made the redactions permanent. What a pack of fools.

Me, reading the article: I sincerely doubt Trump is familiar with the geopolitics of Somaliland. The article:

My least favorite new design pattern in websites is how they dynamically load in content, but it never really finishes loading in and the elements on the page jump around, so I either can’t read it or I click the wrong links over and over. Sites that did not used to do this have started doing it.

I prefer to think of her as more proactive...

Salt water laced with cancer-causing chemicals, a byproduct of oil and gas drilling, keeps shooting out of the ground in Oklahoma. Experts say it means even more wastewater is spreading underground, poisoning the state’s water supply. Published Oct. w/ @readfrontier.bsky.social

A white Afrikaner thought he could seek asylum in the U.S. after Trump offered them refugee status.

Very rich people who live in big, cosmopolitan metro areas live there because of cosmopolitan metro area stuff. If they wanted to live somewhere else, they would’ve moved already. The people least troubled by cost of living will upend their life for marginal increases in cost of living? Come on.

The guy who was a complete douchebag in Greg Bovino's Chicago depositions got a promotion.

“Today’s algorithmically driven, attention-hungry information ecosystem does more than distort reality. It also stokes anger that divides society along political or social lines.” www.nytimes.com/2025/12/25/t...

I'm looking forward to Melania cutting a PSA in her heavily-accented English about the urgent need to halt all immigration in order to save America from ruin.

It’s pretty wild that the most rabidly anti-immigrant administration in recent memory is comprised of a President married to an immigrant, a VP married to the daughter of immigrants, an assistant AG in charge of Civil Rights who’s an immigrant (Dhillon), & it was all funded by an immigrant (Musk).

Minnesota Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagon donned a hijab while touring the Somali community in her state to express solidarity — and it triggered a meltdown among far-right activists, Newsweek reported on Friday.

we’ve been over this we just did this in Massachusetts they’re not gonna leave, they’ll whine and bitch and moan and eventually this will raise more money than expected because nowhere they go is actually like the place they’re leaving

Ceci n’est pas un état police

Fuck. It just occurred to me that I’m on a round table in a few months assessing the effects of the American Revolution on today’s politics and I’m going to have to address the “Heritage Americans” bullshit.

It's almost as if the Enlightenment figures who founded the US had learned the lessons of Europe's wars of religion and created a secular state that would both protect worshippers from political interference, AND protect the polity from becoming dominated by religious sectarians.

And if there's one thing we learn from US religious history, it's that American Protestants always find it very easy to work together and never bitterly fall out with each other over matters that seem trivial to outsiders. s/

Ah, but you're talking about Roman History, while he's talking about Statute Avatar RETVRN

This is extremely dumb for a variety of reasons but perhaps the most obvious is that the Romans didn't apply their adoption law to grants of citizenship. I cannot communicate how basic an error he is making here. Staggeringly elementary, a thing you learn in Roman Civ 101.

Sorry but who cares? Chase them state to state with things they don’t like until they are forced to retreat to their bunkers in New Zealand and try to live their lives from that time zone - good luck and Godspeed

Precisely what rural white working class Americans voted for

Well what do you want. It’s not like he’s a Harvard Law professor or anything like that…

It's 1945 for Trump and from his tacky fake gold bunker he can begin to hear the sound of the Red Army approaching

“Weiss is still remembered for her horror-filled weeping when Trump was elected in 2016. “Less than a decade later, she finds herself saddled with a reputation for seeking to appease him journalistically, which she will probably have to defend for the rest of her life.” www.wsj.com/opinion/bari...

One reason to care if they use GenAI in their own practice: one of my major teaching goals is to teach students to grapple with difficult readings, and my options for getting them to read stuff instead of using AI summaries are all limited and introduce suboptimal trade-offs

Academics don't have to make it go away. They can revert to timed handwritten exams or on airgapped laptops in supervised spaces for students who can't write fast by hand. Who cares if they incorporate GenAI in study, so long as their own output is up to scratch?

My amateur self has this crazy fucking idea... What if people STOP using fucking Chrome extensions? I mean like I might not be a professional whatever, but I know that extensions can be altered, corrupted and end up installed before someone realizes the problem. Does nobody remember this?

Remember when we never even needed to think about this stuff?

The third paragraph reads as if the Russians wrote it. Maybe they did. In any event, it is an atrociously big lie; 1984-grade, as Aaron Rupar rightly says.
