There’s a big story everyone is missing—but this article hits on it. We aren’t just seeing public health dismantled bc we’ve been taken over by conspiracy theorists and lunatics. What we’re really seeing is the giant, predatory, underegulated wellness industry come to Washington.

A friend shared his letter to his family, from 1960, prior to joining fourteen comrades in destroying some 40,000 draft records, then signing hymns while waiting for police to arrest them. Such valor may soon be called for. May our actions now honor their sacrifices then.

The text generator generates text. If you ask it for persuasive text, it generates text that is more persuasive. The text generator cannot lie, or tell the truth—it just generates text. Every time we say “the bot lied” we are misleading ourselves.

State and local gov't could cut these numbers by about 25% in five years without any federal policy. Somebody solve this for me, what should we do? 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
