When people learn with ChatGPT instead of following their own searches, they end up knowing less, caring less, and producing worse advice, even when the facts are the same. Friction is an essential ingredient for learning! Convenience makes us shallow. academic.oup.com/pnasnexus/ar...

Maybe the thing that gives me a pulse-pounding throbbing headache is when I think of how techbros sold ChatGPT to universities as ‘revolutionizing’ higher education and our institutions just forked over money without even asking for actual evidence

As you see stuff like this keep in mind that Bari 100% believes she deserves this job bc she is a generationally smart person instead of a moron who puts her paymasters’ press releases into ChatGPT

A D.C. resident who was briefly detained and handcuffed last month for following a National Guard patrol while playing “The Imperial March” from Star Wars on his phone has filed a lawsuit saying his constitutional rights were violated.

If you are arresting someone for playing the Imperial March you are literally a stormtrooper!

This is gonna upset maga!!!!

A freedom-loving people will not stand for the corruption and the power grabs we’re witnessing daily in our country. That's why millions of Americans took to the streets a few days ago, and it's why elections like the Virginia governor race will show the path to a better future a few days from now.

If Kamala Harris had a year ago that in a year's time Donald Trump would tear down a third of the White House to build a gilded ballroom paid for by access-seeking billionaires, all while he demanded the US taxpayers pay him $230 million personally, she would have been called hyperbolic. And yet

BREAKING: Jack Smith is requesting that Congress and the Justice Dept. let him testify in public. In new letters to the House and Senate Judiciary Committees, Smith says he wants to testify "in open hearings" because of "the many mischaracterizations" around his investigations.

@marcelias.bsky.social Marc Elias is exactly right! The rules have changed and we Dems need to get over the nostalgia for the past! We need our blue states to damn well gerrymander 30 seats! Now!

A man was arrested for playing Darth Vader's theme music, "The Imperial March," behind National Guard troops walking through Logan Circle. Now the ACLU is suing on his behalf. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

If republicans are fine with this, is there any reason why he couldn't just... knock down the lincoln memorial? or the vietnam wall? What else might he want to do to arlington cemetary besides putting his big weird french arch with gold dingleberries in front of it? www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

This cuts to the truth of the East Wing demolition.

The East Wing demolition is messaging you couldn't pay for, a visual metaphor of ruin, ego and lawlessness that is just FALLING INTO OUR LAPS. This is not a distraction. This is a gift.

We’re demanding the Trump-Vance administration release records on its shocking demolition of the White House’s East Wing to build the president a ballroom. The People's House has now been fundamentally altered. This administration must be held accountable for it.

Spotify’s founder, Daniel Ek, is another techno-fascist billionaire. He’s invested in AI that specializes in war, surveillance and violence, so it’s no surprise he’s fine with running ICE ads on Spotify. If you haven’t already, cancel your Spotify subscriptions. Let’s make them feel like Disney+.

The only violence I’ve seen amongst photos of 7 million peaceful #NoKings protestors is ICE violence - state sponsored violence.

NYC is so "out of control and crime ridden" that NYPD had to arrest (checks note) exactly zero people today. 100,000+ protestors. ZERO arrests. ZERO. This isn't only a major slap in Trump's face. It proves YET AGAIN that the only violence ICE fascists are facing, is violence ICE fascists incite.

Moskowitz: We need $30 billion to extend, obviously, these healthcare subsidies, which allow Americans—Americans, not illegal—Americans, citizens, to afford healthcare. And the president’s like, “We don’t have $30 billion, but I am going to send $40 billion to my dear friend in Argentina.”

Viggo Mortensen - American actor, best known for his role as "Aragorn" in the Lord of the Rings film trilogy stands with Ukraine 🙌🫡🇺🇦 I like it😊

probably the most critical piece of information in the great Mills-Platner debate www.bangordailynews.com/2025/10/16/p...

My thoughts on Graham Platner and his old Reddit posts. blackgirlinmaine.com/current-even...

KENNY LOGGINS, on the Feces Fighter Jet: “.. I can’t imagine why anybody would want their music used or associated with something created with the sole purpose of dividing us. Too many people are trying to tear us apart .. We’re all Americans ..” kennyloggins.com/response-to-...

omg! "Demolition crews have begun tearing down part of the White House... "Construction teams Monday were demolishing a portion of the East Wing, with a backhoe ripping through the structure..." www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Obviously this sign was made by this lovely woman, not massed produced and paid for by George Soros. Kudos to the over 70+M people that used their creativity 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

We couldn't find anyone among the 7 million+ No Kings attendees who says they were paid to protest. But X user @crypto4u1488 says each attendee was paid $750 by George Soros and bused in from other states. The truth may lie somewhere in between.

Every time a MAGA says "George Soros," replace it with "The Jews" and you'll understand the motive.

Canvas, the course management platform used by my university (and many others), has been down all day due to the AWS outage. It has prompted some good discussions about how much critical infrastructure is now outsourced to a few companies.

Pensacola is famous for the Blue Angels and for clinic bombings. Today's No Kings crowd looked to me like 2500-5000 attendees. In Pensacola. Matt Gaetz country.

Not so funny now, is it. #NoKings 👑

Republican MAGA: Yes, I want Kristi Noem to abuse taxpayer money; I want people who "look" like immigrants to be kidnapped by masked armed men; I want Trump's family to grift; I want Trump press secretaries to wear big crosses and say Democrats are Hamas supporters paid by Soros.

This one's for you Karoline Leavitt, Mike Johnson, Adulterer Kristi Noem and Pedophile Protector Pam Bondi

In 2005, I wrote an article called "Inventing Akromiya" about how the government of Uzbekistan made up a group called Akromiya to justify a massacre of civilian protesters. Twenty years later, the US is more like Uzbekistan, and I wrote "Inventing Antifa": sarahkendzior.substack.com/p/inventing-...

Say it with me 👏 chatGPT 👏 is 👏 not 👏 a 👏 reliable 👏 source 👏

I spoke with the Winnebago County Executive, Gordon Hintz, and apparently those passing out the bracelets were volunteers who did so without official approval. He said there would be more oversight going forward.

I asked ChatGPT to describe Donald Trump in the style of late Henry James. Here's the result

Seriously you guys?? We ALL pay for this kind of stupidity. WHAT were you thinking? Or more accurately, WHY WEREN’T YOU THINKING? @winnebagodemocrats.bsky.social

We got $20 billion for Argentina though.

Definitely not America First.

Once it is is widely understood that THERE ARE MORE OF US THAN THERE ARE OF THEM, the actual mechanics of opposing and defeating Trump - institutions linking together to protect their interests and prerogatives - are much easier to implement.

Janet Mills is great, but she is 77. The Dem establishment has to be removed. We don’t need a freshman senator who will be 79 when she is elected.

What hubris by Janet Mills. We are way, way, way overdue for younger leadership. Not just in Maine, either. No more out of the Boomer (& older) generation. NO.

🚨 The DSCC — led by Kirsten Gillibrand, Mark Kelly, Adam Schiff, and Lisa Blunt Rochester — has formed a joint fundraising committee with Janet Mills. Mills, running against Graham Platner in the Maine Democratic Senate primary, would become the oldest freshman (79) ever elected, to a 6-year term.

Janet Mills and Susan Collins have been in power my entire life. Janet Mills was my district attorney growing up. I was in second grade when Susan Collins was first elected my senator. We need a fresh perspective in Washington. Time for the next generation to represent Maine.

Janet Mills has jumped into the Maine Senate race against Susan Collins. Recent polling we did with @ZenithPolls shows that Graham Platner is best positioned to beat Susan Collins, out-performing Mills by 6 points. substack.perfectunion.us/p/poll-platn...

AUFKM @dscc.bsky.social @democrats.org ???? The party is SCREAMING for generational change — and I’m 70 — we have a great candidate in Graham Platner and you get a 77 year old to run?? I WAS going to stay out of primaries where I don’t live but fuck that. Giving to Platner.

I recruited Janet Mills to run for Senate because, at 72, Susan Collins is too young for the job. by Chuck Schumer
