This is your daily reminder that Randy Fine is a disgusting, bigoted piece of garbage and should resign in disgrace.

Your reminder that AI companies don’t care if their product is accurate, they just need it to be as profitable as possible.

They Live hits different on a rewatch because what felt exaggerated in 1988 now feels… barely heightened.

I think the biggest problems with humans and technology, especially as it relates to AI is that.. AI is always gonna be an extension of its creator and there is not a single perfect or infallible human among us so anything we create will be flawed in ways nobody can predict completely..

"Stupidity is far more dangerous than evil, for evil takes a break from time to time; stupidity does not." Anatole France

There really wasn’t much News about this walk at all. I sometimes think that if it wasn’t for some of us promoting this on social media, it would have been missed. Thank you PBS

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

"But if we prosecute everyone in the Epstein files, the entire system will collapse" Yeah, that's the aim

Flyovers at sporting events are objectively terrible, and I wish the money would be spent on veterans' healthcare and housing instead.

It's Judy Blume's birthday. She's 88 today. Back in 2013, she said, "It’s not just the books under fire now that worry me. It is the books that will never be written. The books that will never be read. And all due to the fear of censorship. As always, young readers will be the real losers."

"AI is built on the collective knowledge of humankind." No. Nononononono. It is not built on _knowledge_, it it built on _data_. And not everyone's experiences are available as data, many communities are excluded.

February 11, 1926, 100 years ago: Leslie William Nielsen is born in Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada. From the 1950s until 1980, he was considered one of North America's best dramatic actors. I am serious. And don't call me Shirley. www.youtube.com/watch?v=iiO3...

Postcard to my idiot MAGA congressman was succinct today: "I wish you cared about justice for rape and SA victims as much as you cared about Bad Bunny singing in Spanish." #Justice

The SAVE Act is a literal poll tax for married women who changed their last name.

“But I didn’t understand a word he said.” Guess what, that’s the experience of many immigrants when they arrive in a new country, including the United States. You get humbled. Then you work hard and start understanding. We could all use that experience

Love is the way. #ChooseLove

Happy Superb Owl Sunday to all who celebrate. #WWDITS #SuperbOwl

kind of funny that an olympian said they are here to represent "compassion, respect, and love for others" and some people automatically knew that was a statement against them

“If our country does manage to save itself, it will be because people just like these librarians say enough is enough. We the people have a right to read what we want, and no billionaire or self-appointed prophet will take that right from us.” @la-cac.org open.substack.com/pub/contrari...

me, librarian: I think information should be organized and structured logically so that searches are high in precision and recall tech industry, 2000: nope, keyword searching and opaque relevance rankings are what you’ll get … tech industry, 2026: now you’ll just get fake hallucinatory text

Harriet Tubman risked everything to free 70+ enslaved people & never lost a passenger. In the face of authoritarianism, we honor her courage & resistance. Freedom isn’t given—it’s fought for. #BlackHistoryMonth #HarrietTubman #Resistance #Democracy #NeverAgain #FreedomFighter

the Epstein files are really devastating because they remind me of how many girls and women miss out on professional opportunities, mentorship and careers because of how many powerful, rich and influential men only view girls and women — and interactions with them — through the lens of sex

This is for anyone!

Refusing to be numb is a radical act. Caring about the earth while they destroy it. Caring about strangers while they deport or bomb them. You’re not ‘too sensitive.’ Don’t let people make you feel ashamed of your empathy and humanity. You’re still human. Stay that way.

Friends, we're thrilled to announce #Comics4Liam to encourage artists to draw pictures for Liam Conejo Ramos and share links to help Liam's family and other immigrants persecuted by ICE! Check out comics4liam.com and please do feel free to pitch in! Images by the great @trungles.com!

Sometimes the bravest thing you can do is stay soft in a world that keeps asking you to harden up. Pay attention to what steadies you — a quiet moment, a voice, a song — and keep those things close. They ain’t escapes; they’re anchors.

How strong are those of us defend freedom and democracy? Strong enough to be kind. Those who can't be kind to others...are the weakest among us.

One of the best things I’ve read in a while:

If you're wondering what you can or should do today...start by helping someone who needs it. A neighbor, friend, family member, complete stranger...doesn't matter. Mutual aid is how we're getting through this together. If you think you can't help in some way, that's incorrect. #Peace #Justice

Boycott the World Cup. Boycott the Olympics. Boycott any and all companies which support this and the outlets that promote them. Our wallets are our power.

Martin Luther King Jr. devoted his life to fighting for justice and equality. Today, as divisions in our world deepen, his vision is not just inspiring, it is urgent. The work he began continues, and it is up to all of us to carry it forward.

I miss the evil billionaires who'd try to buy their way into heaven by funding massive public libraries

"Angry people want you to see how powerful they are. Loving people want you to see how powerful you are." Chief Red Eagle

I'm glad to see poetry and zines undergoing a renaissance of sorts. They have the power to change hearts and minds. The pen is and always will be mightier than the sword. #Peace #Justice
