Dropping this the same day as the sad white guy essay is diabolical work from Reuters and I salute it.

I'll just say it makes me really uncomfortable all these posts about Rob reiners son's addiction struggles. We have no idea what happened. Literally none. I don't like to see ppl struggling with addiction set up as inherently dangerous.

WE the users have to consciously recognize the bias when AI spits it out. And then we "need to make.our prompts more specifc". THAT'S IT

In the awful AI training I took at work, the only thing it said about bias was that, AI doesn't created bias!!!!! it will just replicate it sometimes as a result of bad data. The example was asking AI for a photo of a nurse (woman) and a photo of a doctor (man). The training offered only ONE "fix"

a dhs helicopter with its transponder on repeatedly circled the brighton park/back of the yards neighborhoods yesterday afternoon—clearly a harbinger of today's violence. globe.adsbexchange.com?icao=a19f67&...

border patrol agents, including greg bovino, are slamming chicago’s southwest side/near suburbs already today. at least one person abducted from tbe walmart parking at cicero/33rd in cicero—a frequent target for agents (photos below). also confirmed in back of the yards and brighton park.

This makes me sick

once I wondered "are @nytpitchbot.bsky.social 's mockery of The Daily too over the top?"

Supreme Court "guidance", eh?

"Let's take the win" 🙄🙄🙄

"Forget “best.” Sinners may well be the most movie of 2025."

Grading and googling hallucinated citations, as one does nowadays, and now that LLMs have been around for a while, I've discovered new horrors: hallucinated journals are now appearing in Google Scholar with dozens of citations bc so many people are citing these fake things

Immigration judges are "pretermitting" huge swathes of asylum claims on the grounds that the person can be deported to a third country instead — one of the explicit statutory grounds for denying the right to apply for asylum. This is now happening at large scale nationwide.

NEW: A major shift in underway in recent months kicked into gear this week, with ICE trial attorneys around the country asking immigration "judges" to toss out *nearly all* asylum applications on the grounds of "safe third country" agreements with Uganda, Honduras, Ecuador, and Guatemala.

I was in a tribunal a week ago where DHS moved to pretermit every single asylum case on "safe third country grounds." Every. single. one. At one point, a judge scheduled a second master for a man to prove he would be in danger in Honduras. Confused, he said "No, Peru. I'm from Peru."

🚨🚨 JUDGE DUGAN'S TRIAL GETS ITS SIGNALGATE The witness agrees that federal agents spoke to each other in a Signal group called "Frozen Water Group," indicating ICE. Dugan's lawyer notes that's not the preferred mode of ICE communications.

Whether it's an obscure adjunct professor posting that Charlie Kirk did some bad things or it's the president of the United States celebrating Rob Reiner's death, there's plenty of incivility on both sides.

My kids collectively have like 6 school potlucks this week

"In a corner conference room, it was time to party. They traded congratulatory speeches and cut into a sheet cake."

They literally said "post-grad" lmao

I made the mistake at looking at the NYT opinion and just please don't. Think of it as Never Read The Comments. Like, let's read the individual Bouie and dr. McMillan Cottom pieces but just do not read the page

I'm still spinning out about the ICE guys saying The Election to ppl protesting their presence in their community

This entire weekend

Part of the Chanukah tradition is to place the light menorah either outside or in a window where outsiders can see it. This is supposed to advertise the miracle of Chanukah. These days, it is also a way of saying, “This is a Jewish home.” Every year I think about how it is also an act of bravery.

Hello friends, I recently lost my health insurance + benefits & am currently looking at a bill of over $16,000 for which I cannot pay. This would not necessarily be an issue if I were not visually impaired and currently out of full time work, but I am humbly asking for assistance now. Any bit helps.

I’ve been speechless & despondent about all of the horrors this weekend that has been visited upon people & communities. The gun violence, the antisemitism, everything else. All I can really say is that I’m so sorry & I truly hope to live to see the day when we decide to do right by one another.

the last 24 hours have been nightmarish in their violence, and I just am so angry this is the world we are in and god damn it

After the disastrous 2016 election night, in 2020 I turned off all the phones and as a family we watched The Princess Bride and it really saved my sanity

One citizen said that federal agents in Idaho pointed guns at her children, ages 6 and 8, and dragged her 14-year-old daughter out of a truck and zip-tied her. The mother told investigators that an agent threatened to “fucking blow your head off.” By @nicolefoy.bsky.social

hanukkah sameach! (closed the blinds so i could post a pic online, but they’re open again now!)

It’s the first night of Hanukkah and the world seems like a very dark place. But we can bring light to the darkness. We can fight for each other and make goodness, love, and community shine through. Show me your menorahs and let’s light up the timeline!

Steve isn’t here anymore, but he always posted this picture on Hanukkah so I thought we could carry on his tradition and remember him.

Conservatives rebranded bigotry and every time the media uses “wokeness” as a euphemism they are helping a movement that it quite literally erasing the history marginalized people’s role in American life.

so far tonight msnbc has interviewed two students from brown university that are also survivors of separate high school shootings. insanity.

Oh government jobs are good now?

ICE quite responsibly arrested 8-10 randos, far less than the vicious left would have you think

A wave of gay-themed romcoms from Heartstopper to Red white and royal Blue is really giving ran the gamut from A to B.

Good work, Minnesota residents!

Marcos Charles is the acting "executive associate director for ICE’s Enforcement and Removal Operations" and both claims it's untrue that ICE is just grabbing random people, AND tells a story about arresting a guy from Honduras after breaking down a door to find a guy who wasn't there.

I was saying boo-urns

It's just me in front of a brick wall for 2 hours. It cost 80 million dollars.

On closer inspection these are loafers
