Writing is thinking Outsourcing the entire task of writing to LLMs will deprive us of the essential creative task of interpreting our findings and generating a deeper theoretical understanding of the world.

Should infuriate all of us.

If it were up to me, geriatric would-be invaders of Greenland would be sent out on an ice floe or maybe just rethink their life goals from an extended meditation retreat period atop the ice sheet. Perhaps a polar bear could discuss arctic life with him too?

Carney is bluntly telling the world, and Americans, that the post WW2 order is gone and America is left behind.

From a friend in Minneapolis...reposting because of Joanne Freeman's (@jbf1755.bsky.social) latest 'thoughts for those who can't sleep'! www.youtube.com/live/YyMht56...

THIS is IT. Community wins.

That definition is both false and the justification for constant pandering to white conservatism while ignoring the huge swathe of BIPOC people who are by income and type of employment a whole lot of the working class if not the hardhat lunch bucket industrial worker of a certain kind of fantasy.

Excellent. We need more religious leaders to speak up. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/19/u...

Ma'am? Yes? We're law enforcement and- Oh! What law are you enforcing? This is about Facebook mockery. There's a law of Facebook mockery? No, ma'am. But we worry that your mockery of the mayor might cross the line into untruthful depictions. So the law of aggravated exaggeration, then?

Trump cheered China for Tiananmen Square (violent crackdown on pro-democracy protestors) and cheered Russia for invading Ukraine (unprovoked aggression in pursuit of conquest). Minneapolis and Greenland shouldn't be a surprise. But for whatever reason, tons of people chose not to take him seriously.

If you're not seeing what's happening in Minneapolis... just like you did not see what happened in Chicago, or Portland... and you do not see what the fuss is about... you at the least shouldn't have to wonder why it is that the people around you are starting to recognize that you're a not-see.

That last sentence.

This. I know it’s easy to think the opposite. But the crazy grab, stab, and shoot? It’s panic driven. If these folks felt in control, this crap wouldn’t be necessary. Don’t buy the bravado. Stand up for truth. We are the majority.

ICE: We proudly murdered a woman, and we are going to continue to terrorize your communities. America: Uh, please don't do that. ICE: Oh, you want more? OK, here you go. Republicans: Americans deserve to have their skulls cracked for being insurgent!

@edrabinski.bsky.social Once spring training starts, it'll all be better, right? JFC, what a freaking 💩 show.

So far thousands of patriotic Americans have raised over $700k for the man who got suspended by Ford Motor Co for calling Trump a "pedophile protector"

Thank you, @eyelessgame.bsky.social, for these words of wisdom. They ring out over the decades.

Remember, Scott Adams won't see your posts focusing on his late-career bigotry, but J.K. Rowling might.

The “prosecute the former regime at every level” candidate has my vote in 2028.

The new Norfolk Iron Age carnyx find featured on #DiggingForBritain with @profaliceroberts.bsky.social is beyond spectacular, dating to that crucial period for the Iceni between Caesar’s expeditions & Boudica’s rebellion. Already my find of the decade, today is a day to worship the carnyx… 1/…

all this is both foolish and unnecessary

Now Trump says "we" need Greenland. Well done weak European leaders who tepidly criticized/welcomed Trump’s invasion of Venezuela yesterday. You're next.

The Epstein Files Transparency Act is a law, passed by Congress on November 19 with an overwhelming vote. Complying with it was not optional. The Department of Justice did not comply. I want to make sure this is very clear.

I think the key to this version of US imperialism is the interaction of 1 and 2 here

This is profoundly un-American. No—that's not right. It's *anti*-American. It's hatred of the United States and its founding documents and all its people and all its traditions. The person who wrote and approved this is a weirdo who detests everything that America stands for.

Wash Post conveniently doesn't mention that most of the spending is from the TOP 10%, many Americans don't own stocks, the growth in AI investments benefit billionaires, the Trump Admin is withholding economic data, & most people are negative on the economy. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

What the holy hell is this
