You should not treat POLITICO as a truthful, unbiased source of information. Their management has banned their unionized workers from taking down generative AI tools that have been spewing lies from their homepage during the 2024 elections, forcing staff to carve out a standards exemption instead

Brightline's experience shows cost escalations aren't a sin unique to the public sector or specific design choices made by California High-Speed Rail. We need systemic reform so we can build more green infrastructure like electric, high-speed rail.

Most of the power authoritarians have is freely given. We should not comply with them in advance. Trump is far weaker than he looks. So is the GOP. We should draw them out, drain them at every opportunity, and fight for people’s wellbeing at every turn. We have been sent here to fight for people.

Rowling and Emma Watson's argument is painful to watch😢 Good-hearted transgender people never intend to hurt anyone else. They just want to love who they want to love and live according to their soul's direction. Chiitan stands by the hearts of good-hearted transgender people. I love everyone

THIS is political violence, by the way.

in case you missed it @milesklee.bsky.social came on close all tabs to talk about ai & religion & why people keep falling into delusions after asking chatgpt if god is real open.spotify.com/episode/664V...

I finally read the entirety of Ezra Klein's interview with Ta-Nehisi Coates and wow is the difference privilege makes so. incredibly. clear. Klein fundamentally thinks this is all about a political party winning or losing. Coates recognizes it's about who gets to be treated as fully human.

Okatsuka posted the censorship rules for the controversial comedy festival, noting how many "You can’t say anything anymore!" comedians have signed on. www.avclub.com/riyadh-comed...

These men really enjoy beating up women.

I want this game to exist so bad so I can play it. "Oh, just one more thing..."

@kenklippenstein.bsky.social with the receipts, actually talking to the shooter's friends. Surprise! Not the left, or even MAGA. Another white kid who spent countless hours online and "was an edgelord who wanted someone to get blamed … to rile people up.” www.kenklippenstein.com/p/the-ice-sh...

I want to do a little breakdown of this investigation I published today for @prismreports.org about gender-based violence in the H-2A agricultural visa program.

One of the best reasons to support 404 Media, aside from it being a journalist owned tech news site, is actual change happens because of their reporting.

The rumours– not rumours– are true. Ppl in the #animation industry are, still, at the receiving end of greed, mergers, job cuts, capitalism, AI, unfair wages.. I could go on and on. We're trying to make animation still happen in the indie space. FOLLOW US if you support the #IndieAnimation movement!

My brain melted halfway through. can someone tell me how it ends? nymag.com/intelligence...

Fucking hell we've already gotten a bunch of clearly AI generated pitches for @coyotemedia.org. Don't do this! We will automatically reject you! Also for some of these the pitcher clearly couldn't actually cover the story anyway because they're not local? What is the game plan here????

My latest for @51st.news: how masked federal agents are taking a toll on DC residents and communities

99% Invisible is nominated *twice* for Best Writing at the Signal Awards. This very flattering. However we are splitting the vote for People's Choice. So! I'm asking you, please vote for @vivianhle.bsky.social and her story "Nazi Block." Viv's the best! vote.signalaward.com/PublicVoting...

RAPTURE IS HERE! The prophesier himself Fab Five Freddy hath deemed everybody fly. DJ spinning, the time is nigh!

Sorry I'm just catching up on internet news -- are we celebrating the 45th anniversary of Blondie's rap song this week or something?

I'm taking my first poetry class ever through Grubstreet, Revolutionary Poetics, which is reminding me that art can't be divorced from action in these times, and art can move people towards that action. I went down a little rabbit hole tonight for the poems written about my uncle Vincent Chin:

In case this wasn't already clear:

LA Councilman Hugo Soto-Martínez said he would end sweeps, when he campaigned for office. Now, activists say he broke his promise. Read more about that @thelareporter.bsky.social: thelareporter.la/p/la-city-co...

Time to shift our anger towards Sinclair stations. They want to push a narrative towards killing free speech that America doesn't want and they need to be financially punished for it. Speak out. Make calls. Any small act helps.

new from @kylietcheung.bsky.social in @teenvogue.com: recently, men have impersonated plainclothes ICE agents to assault women—only possible, she argues, because state agents commit violence with impunity. "To be clear, men wouldn’t be posing as ICE agents and assaulting women if ICE didn’t exist."

this feature that reverse image searches tiktoks for dupes in the tiktok shop is sort of cursed as a concept already but somehow it gets even more cursed www.theverge.com/tech/782540/...

Be sure you take a moment today to remember Charlie Kirk for exactly who he was.

"Once you use ChatGPT, you don't want to rhink for yourself anymore." 😬

Trump administration's message to anyone who isn't rich and corrupt is pretty obvious: You Don't Count. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/20/u...

"Fuck this Nazi bullshit" is a perfectly acceptable editorial stance, in fact

more national publications should try this but until then maybe subscribe to local ones that do

NEW: Air Force jets are doing ICE flights to Africa with transponders turned off, making them nearly un-trackable. This includes the third-country removal to Ghana and another secret flight. We figured out where it landed. From me for @rollingstone.com: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

You cannot create a bread and circus society and then yank the bread AND the circus Yall gon learn

This FCC action is straight out of P2025 Nexstar & Sinclair drove this They said they wouldn't air Kimmel on their ABC affiliates They're the real villains here & hiding behind the more visible Disney & letting them take the heat. Stop watching your local affiliates if it's one of those 2 co's.

“Anti-trans harassment and violence is all the rage. Trans people are afraid to leave the country, let alone leave their houses. The right-wing ecosystem has gladly spent years creating these conditions, while Democrats have by turns avoided saying anything about them at all” 😞 👉🏻 archive.ph/ewBhT

cancelling Disney+ and Hulu is well and good but it’s not a huge hit on an individual level but Disney adults? people who spend real money at the parks? you guys can make a dent, call ‘em up and tell them your vacation is postponed until they pull their heads out of their asses

Free speech suppression over the most mild observations from comedy media. It's mind boggling, but I suppose weaponizing speech to make people lose their jobs is straight out of the deceased's playbook.

Reupping results from a recent @inn.org member survey: • 60% are facing revenue declines • 57% are seeking emergency funding •36% report < 3 months of operating reserves While authoritarian consolidation of corporate media continues unimpeded, nonprofit media is on the brink of collapse!

I owe my entire career to alt-weeklies, there's so much to revive here: www.coyotemedia.org/what-we-talk...

Becoming increasingly clear we’re gonna have to build a parallel infrastructure for all the media we really love. The reason all of this is happening under the color of law is hyperconsolidation, dissent being traded straight up for merger approval, or fear of harassment.

saw a post i liked on tumblr today.....didnt see that they'd posted it on their account here but i wish they would its a sentiment that resonated w me more than making "good" art it's just important to make art....thanks man

The fact that this company and pretty much all the AI companies rolled out their tech without first considering the harms to the most vulnerable among us is horrifying. Again and again they show us how little they care about harms except as reputational damage

once again reminding people to never RSVP for a protest

On June 24, I began my Election Night speech by quoting Mandela: “It always seems impossible until it’s done.” That's the spirit of this campaign, and our city. This is "Until It’s Done,” a new series about New Yorkers who refused to accept that a worthy goal was impossible.

this is, hands down, the best video I've seen on men's influencer content and it's not close either

This is also just a straight up lie! Kirk did NOT support free speech or persuasion, his entire political project was based around using organized harassment and threats of violence against people who spoke in ways he disagreed with!

tldr: they'll have to make AI say "I don't know" to at least 30% of the queries ("a conservative estimate") and it will drive users away, who by now are too used to getting answers for whatever they ask

KIM KITSURAGI - "What is it, detective? Can you make it out?" BULLET - "if you read this you are gay lmao" 1. "It, um, doesn't say anything." 2. "Transgender ideology. My old foe." 3. [Espirit de Corps - Medium 10] "I think you should read it for yourself, Kim."
