A good cautionary tale for when someone claims that trusting data analysis done with an LLM is good because it’s “objective.” In this example, Copilot apparently decided to ignore the data it was given and just run with all the subconscious biases its (human-made) training data inevitably gave it.

OBAMA: A good policy that I'd like to see followed is that the president shouldn't have a bunch of side hustles that companies and foreign entities can invest in COLBERT: How much of that is just jealousy that you didn't think of selling sneakers?

If I want advice about the best way to strip the dick off of a dead raccoon I’ll consult RFKJr and his pack of psycho woo merchants, otherwise they can fuck right off about how I say healthy.

“Kimmel’s hateful and violent rhetoric is intended to divide our country. His monologue about my family isn’t comedy- his words are corrosive and deepens the political sickness within America.” -FLOTUS Meanwhile…

We might disagree about the viability of city-run grocery stores, fareless buses, and the Sin of Empathy. But I'd like to think that we can overlook divisions of class, ethnicity, and basic decency, coming together to offer a hearty #HoorayForCaptainSpaulding !

We should be learning from other countries...

Orbàn should keep a room open in his dacha for Trump, who no doubt will soon be following him there.

"To put it bluntly, an X post today receives less than 3% of the views a single tweet delivered seven years ago." If you think it is necessary to be on Twitter to communicate your fact-based worldview, the reality is that worldview is being smothered.

CNBC: “Is Trump destroying a civilization a bigger upside risk or downside risk?” incredible stuff

The President is threatening genocide and possible use of nuclear weapons against Iran. It’s clear the President has continued to decline and is not fit to lead. The members of his Cabinet must invoke the 25th Amendment immediately.

Trump: “It will take [Iran] 100 years to rebuild... the only way they’re going to be able to rebuild their country is to utilize the genius of the United States of America.” Like Napoleon, who got to Egypt by looting and monetizing the chaos he created. Except even more of a megalomaniac.

Moynihan: Don't look to DC for moral clarity Mockler: I could have looked up to Obama and actually learned patience. If I look to Trump, I don't even know what I learn from that. Be an absolute asshole to anyone who interacts with you. What's the lesson that I'm supposed to take from this guy?

I'm going on Krugman's substack in a few to talk energy, so I've been trying to wrap my head around a 30K view of the domestic energy landscape. It has brought to mind one of my favorite rants, which I will rant at you once again here. Let's talk about a contrast. 🧵

There ought to be a law…

Mifepristone is not polluting your tap water, but sure, let’s roll back women's healthcare just in case. This is EPA cosplay to gut your rights. Share this before they decide your uterus is a Superfund site.

The United States is contemplating threatening to kill people with HIV in another country as leverage to get that country's minerals. We have become a sick nation, just as depraved and disgusting as its leader.

Crazy crazy story. Times of Israel reporter ( English language Israeli news site ) gets escalating death threats to change story that’s at center of big polymarket bet. www.timesofisrael.com/gamblers-try...

If you are watching Trump's presser right now, you are seeing beyond reasonable doubt a person not mentally suited for any position of responsibility. Even running a small store. GOP members of the House and Senate: You are seeing this too.

New in PN: The bombing of Iranian children is an unforgivable crime "American disinterest in the lives of people abroad is a resource politicians use to justify cynical wars. It's hard to see on what moral grounds we claim a right to decide the fate of those about whom we clearly care so little."

New video footage shows a US Tomahawk missile hitting an IRGC facility in Minab, Iran, on Feb 28, showing for the first time that the US struck the area. The footage also shows smoke already rising from the vicinity of the girls’ school, where 175 people were reportedly killed, including children.

This is from the NEH's call for Funding Opportunities for Individual Fellowships. Only Western Civilization (whatever that means -- west of... Teheran? Constantinople? Vienna?) Because the only thing worth knowing about comes from the cultures of countries that the whitest Americans come from?

I hate how accurate this tweet is.

House Oversight Committee: Subpoena Melania Trump.

Right, because men don't care about what other people think of them? (Seriously, men kill women for laughing at them or rejecting them, which can serve as a measure of how much they care.) Insert picture of Hegseth and RFK jr. doing pushups.

This serial killing spree has been completely normalized. I consider this in many ways the single worst thing going on because it’s getting zero resistance from the media, Congress, everywhere. Everyone has seemingly accepted he can commit mass murder on boats for… fun, basically.

Making up a cite from the seminal “making up cites” case, you simply love to see it

This response to Trump announcing the Kennedy Center shut down is everything. A true tour de force.

Free speech in America continues its death spiral—just like Trump and MAGAs wanted.

Trump's "you can't carry guns" statement might mean we're finally be ready to talk about how the very first gun control laws targeted the Black Panthers and how badly tyrants would like their people disarmed and helpless And how MAGA isn't pro gun, they're pro themselves having guns

Wow! This read-along of the NYT moment-by-moment leading to the murder of Alex Pretti should shake everyone awake. He was a Good Samaritan. Agents fired at least ten shots in roughly five seconds. DHS and Pam Bondi claim Pretti approached them armed and intent on a “massacre.”

Alex from our time working together, while he was in nursing school. Later, he moved to ICU, working as a nurse to support critically ill Veterans. He had such a great attitude. We’d chat between patients about trying to get in a mountain bike ride together. Will never happen now

Federal law enforcement agents shot and killed a man in Minneapolis on Jan. 24 according to local police officials. DHS told Fox News that the man was “armed with a gun”. A video of the shooting appears to show that a gun was taken from the man before the first shot was fired. x.com/BillMelugin_...

This guy became a hero to MAGA world. The police gave him a bottle of water after he killed people. In a state he didn't live in, with a gun that was illegally purchased. All charges dropped!

Liam Ramos. 5 years old. Photographed here being kidnapped by DHS/ICE/CPB on his way home from school. Now held prisoner in Texas in a "detention center". Alone. No family. No friends. A baby. We are committing unredeemable acts in the US.

This is insane not just the explicit "go break the 4A" substance but how they knew how bad it was, acting in guilty paranoia to cover it up and suppress the written evidence. This isn't how running a government agency works. This is what a criminal conspiracy looks like, because that's what it is.

Let this radicalize you.

Terribly uncanny how relevant this is to today.

interesting! here's a video i took yesterday of federal agents ramming community members with their car

About god damn time.

Trump quits pivotal 1992 climate treaty, in massive blow to global warming effort

I am impeaching Secretary Kristi Noem, who is an incompetent leader and a disgrace to our democracy. She wreaked havoc in the Chicagoland area and has brought her reign of terror to Minneapolis. One of her rogue ICE agents shot and killed an innocent woman today. It must come to an end.
