SHERO 🦸🏻‍♀️ Not only for inventing Plan B, but for demonstrating prodigious creativity in her insults, “demonstrated the political instincts of celery.” 🤣

You just know that “Did Women Ruin the Workplace?” bit would have done NUMBERS in this little clique

in retrospect the metoo movement did not go too far and in fact should have been given spanish inquisition levels of power and authority

This isn’t even the stuff they’re trying to actually stop from getting out.

Also, just a reminder, anyone emailing Epstein regularly after 2008 knows he's been convicted of felonies related to sex with minors.

terrible things *at scale* indeed

Did Underage Girls Ruin Politics? Tomorrow in the @nytimes.com

Breast reductions aren’t feminist – just a new form of misogyny A trend for the costly cosmetic procedure makes it even harder for women to choose for themselves, writes @sarahmanavis. 🔗 Read: https://bit.ly/3JPN4wE

This is actually good spin, or would have been. But the fact that the Democratic cave happened without even a coordinated, agreed-upon message like this indicates the depth of the leadership void.

To "reopen the government" does that take a vote from the House as well? And if it does, does that mean that if the House is in session, Json has to swear in Adelita Grijalva @kimleonard.bsky.social @rhappe.bsky.social ?

@durbin.senate.gov Chicago native, I've voted for you several times, including in your last election. It's shameful that we couldn't reach your office tonight I know you're not up for re election but please don't vote with Rs here. Please vote No.

agreeing to make a terrible deal while your main opponent is quite literally being boo'd on live tv by an entire stadium of people is the kind of political instinct you'd normally only find in a 3 week old dead goldfish

Was able to leave a vm for my senator Duckworth. Durbin not accepting voicemails so wasn't able to make my voice heard for his team deargod

@slotkin.senate.gov @baldwin.senate.gov @schumer.senate.gov @duckworth.senate.gov @durbin.senate.gov Please please please don’t cave. Please.

"They want everyone to know these thugs they’ve deployed to terrorize cities are battle-hardened and impervious to pain. But in court, they're such delicate flowers that if they are, say, lightly grazed by a sandwich, they are entitled to justice because of the horrific assault they have suffered."

In my career in education I've long found students to be far more realistic about the impact of technology on their education than older adults. To students, the latest tech fad does not present as some radical transformation, it's just some thing they gotta deal with.

me at the end of class: here's a little speculative exercises; imagine you wake up from cryosleep in 2085. what's the kind of tech-society r/ship you'd like to see around you? students: no AI I honestly think students' views are missing from the 'should AI be integrated in classrooms' discussion

honestly kinda a litmus test for whom to take seriously going forward

Among the many messages from yesterday’s election results, I hope corporate leaders are paying attention. We don’t want the bland, passive, rote consumption you are selling us because we are not bland and passive.

i can’t believe a good thing happened we should do this more often

Really looking forward to the Speaker of the House claiming to be unaware of the election results.

Also excited for the billionaire + Cuomo exodus tomorrow. Will keep an eye out cuz we are in NY right now.

Mikie Sherrill "putting the common good above personal gain" a relief to hear again

Wow it turns out the entire country is not permanently reactionary because Trump won an election by 1.5%

Chuck Schumer is a sentence.

MARGINS ftw

I’m just a small-town political scientist, & it’s still relatively early, but it appears that The Actual Democrats did not Need To Do any of the Things or Learn any of the Obvious Lessons that Ezra Douthglesias said they Must Do & Learn.

Virginia/ New Jersey understood the assignment

just me right here crying over this

I'm really sorry to have subjected all of you to all this NYC posting but it's really been the most breathtakingly ugly race, particularly given that Mamdani has the affect and manner of a Sesame Street character

"By insisting on the term 'automation,' Bender and Hanna reveal that what’s sold as innovation is often just labor displacement with better branding." Erik J. Larson discusses "The AI Con" by Emily M. Bender and Alex Hanna: https://lareviewofbooks.org/article/the-return-of-the-luddites/

I’m really starting to suspect that most of the tech bros haven’t actually read Tolkien, as they certainly don’t understand it. The gentle hobbits save the “hard men” of Gondor, largely through compassion and selflessness. Not the other way around. The Christian parable is barely hidden!

Another exciting round of Lying or Dementia

With that much profit, there is so much opportunity to do great work w/even a byproduct of not slashing humans Legacy infrastructure everywhere causes compounding tech debt chaos, data & AI slop, bugs with global impact Tech foundations are so broken. Huge value in addressing

I cannot tell you how many tech journalists at prominent media organizations do not understand this

Bye spotify. "how you listen will change" indeed. I'll be listening via another platform. Premium cancelled. Account deleted.

More of this pls all Dems

🤔

This is very good

My signal is annabower.24 if any other United States Attorneys want to text me!

Couldn’t put this one down compelling to the kicker

It's almost as though she is a moron

So I realize I’ve reposted this all day, but I cannot understate the scale of this story. If Anthropic is spending this much on Google Cloud - or even 25% - the costs of running their business are never coming down. It’s a huge scoop, and the first real discussion of the true costs of AI anywhere.

Absolutely tracks.

This is what democracy looks like. #NoKings

London! Appreciate the inflatables theme from Portland and Chicago! #NoKingsDay @demsabroad.bsky.social @ofthebraveusa.bsky.social

Bravo! New Guard, pls

Britain must crush Musk. Democratic governments don't usually target individuals - but Elon Musk is acting like a rogue state - encouraging violence on our streets, and funding the far right. The usual incentives are broken - so we need to change what we do: www.libdemvoice.org/britain-must...
