The struggle of being the chronically online person in all your relationships: when somebody sends you some breaking news, you are (internally) like, “Yes, I know. Indeed, I’ve reacted, I’ve processed, and I’ve already read about 5000 words on this, as this was 20 minutes ago.”

I don’t care whether you majored in humanities or STEM, I care whether you have the motivation and capacity to be a lifelong learner and when I think about AI jobs threats I think about the millions of people who shaped their knowledge-work careers around task completion instead of problem solving.

Her culture is not a costume!!

So people are so excited that TS&TK donated $26M. With their combined wealth over $2B, this is just around 1.2%. in real human terms, it's as if a couple making $100K, donated around $1200.

😓🤮

Ten years ago, you might've gotten some funny looks if you stepped out in Metro merch. Now? People line up around the block for it. @curiouskurz.bsky.social on the transit system's renaissance: 51st.news/wmata-metro-...

ChatGPT-ass speechwriting.

I can't wait for this motherfucker to die. I hope it's painful.

Ave Maria? Wtaf?

A $3 @mta.info subway fare and some good Q train timing can buy you one hell of a view of the July 4th fireworks and the Brooklyn Bridge light show! Huge shoutout to the train operator for slow rolling over the Manhattan Bridge and the conductor for announcing it.

How do you build a movement if you assume everyone joining you is just doing it opportunistically?

So what’s everybody tipping the president for July 4?

There is no perfect 250th commemorative ev-

In a new op-ed for @forward.com, Brad Lander responds to Rabbi Elliot Cosgrove's prediction that an emboldened left will consider him an expendable Jew and vote him out the way he defeated Dan Goldman.

He's gonna get crucified. And people will say it's political retribution. It's not. It's a culmination of weak leadership allowing unforms to creep into political discourse and be used as props in rallies and sports games.

Disgorgement. Lustration. Defenestration.

Alright I found this posted publicly so I’ll just expand on this here. Dawg I think McConnell is Done. 84 y/o male dispatched as unconscious first advanced life support unit finds him pulseless and apneic and requests a supervisor for CPR in progress? Let’s talk about resuscitation real quick.

Got frustrated striking out at pitching opeds to media orgs and couldn't have done this piece within their word count constraints anyway. So now you Blueskis get to read it. Friend told me my superpower is explaining complex and dry law and legal history clearly. I try. You can be the judge. Thx.

The only good social network.

Today the good people of the world commemorate the passing of Google Reader thirteen short years ago on July 1, 2013. To honor their memory (and in lieu of flowers) please add an RSS/Atom/JSON feed to your web site and keep building a web that connects people in meaningful and positive ways.

My husband sings country road as “western Virginia” ever since he learned it’s not actually about West Virginia.

Has this been done

Really not sure why the shepherd's race is relevant.

Former @orlandohockey.bsky.social Solar Bear.

$300 million. Explicitly prohibited in the Constitution. The emoluments clause functionally does not exist.

Talk about taking the ultimate plunge.

it is truly incredible that this passes for intellectual rigor at Jacobin. astounding.

cursèd thought: What are the odds JD takes communion this week from former Catholic priest Michael Goldade?

Good thing this is only for Canada otherwise Ted Cruz would need a new diaper

this meeting could've been a slack

$100 for the intern who pubs a "Nina Totenberg Retires" story on the NPR homepage right now.

If the law can change arbitrarily, it's not law.

AIUI, experts estimate there are potentially tens of thousands of loose MANPADS out there. Ho hum.

hey but the good news is we will get proof* of alien visitors soon *not proof

Tim Walz was right about them being weirdos.

An administration of just the shittiest people.

what a dick

Court watchers seemed very sure birthright citizenship was going to be 7-2 or even 8-1. It should have been 9-0. Instead it's 5-4. Folks really need to update their priors. This "court" has no bottom as long as 6 depraved far right operatives are the majority.

Chris Rufo is introducing neo-Nazi beliefs, like Great Replacement Theory, to Americans the right way.

literally one day apart. goldfish would scoff at this lack of object permanence

Can't wait for the 'founders surely foresaw AR-15s (but not citizenship)' ruling that's sure to follow.
