Call it what it is The Trumpstein files

US Olympic Curling Team member speaks out against ICE: "I'm proud to represent Team USA. But we'd be remiss if we didn't mention what's going on in Minnesota and what a tough time it's been. What's happening is wrong. There's no shades of gray."

I have zero doubts that this is the first time this has happened. MAGA is a CULT.

🚨Buckle up!🚨 Poland is investigating potential connections between Jeffrey Epstein and Polish victims, as well as possible involvement of Russian intelligence in his activities. The Polish government has set up a special task force.

LISTEN: There are a lot of folks out here working tirelessly to get the truth out there. Replying to us that nothing matters because there'll be no consequences is not only incorrect, but it belittles the work we do. It's insulting and shortsighted. Stop following us if you don't want the info.

1/ ProPublica collected handwritten letters in mid-January from children held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the same facility where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken. Hundreds of kids are still detained. We’ll let the children’s words speak for themselves. 🧵

Time for some billionaire perp walks 😒👍

Hope this helps

THIS 👇 IS TRUE.......

I. NEED. to see this.

Have you written to your Lawmakers? Your Representative and Senators need to hear from you! Urge Them to: ✔️Oppose any further expansion of immigration detention and hold facilities accountable. ✔️Conduct in-person oversight visits to ICE detention centers bit.ly/Redress_Imm_... bit.ly/ICE-Out

Q for my Skeets with grade school children in both Canada and America: is the scientific method still being taught to littles? I think it still is here in Canada (okay, maybe not in Hellberta) but I don't think it is in America. Genuinely interested/curious.

My brain at 1am: Climate crisis, democratic backsliding, preparing for the rumored ICE invasion tomorrow Also my brain at 1am: hey LLM friend, what’s the difference between dark matter and antimatter?

May his memory be a blessing.

Trump doesn’t rule out staying in power for a third term. Like any autocrat, he wants to die in power to avoid accountability, entrench a dictatorship to preserve his cult after he’s gone. #oligarchy #dictatorship #dictatortrump

Trump has a top-secret weapon called "The Discombobulator" that he can’t wait to tell you about

I think this is key to fighting corporate capitulation. It has to come from the people who are doing the actual work that is making the billionaires rich

I just had to rescue my apartment's vacuum (using that term loosely here) robot from the clutches of a doormat. This is not the future I signed up for. Where are my flying cars?

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again. #Pinks #ProudBlue

Just a gentle reminder to celebrate your wins, even the ones people don't see. 👇

also this country was started by psychos, but mostly violins

It's always frustrating to me how the term AI has evolved. AI was an umbrella term from 1950s. Then Machine Learning (a subset of AI), Deep Learning (a subset of ML), and modern generative AI (a subset DL). Now LLMs are used synonymously with "AI". So I made these graphics of the "AIroboros"

Quick round up: - the government is covering up evidence the president is a pedophile - he’s openly taking bribes from foreign governments - his masked agents are shooting citizens in the streets - the FBI is helping him steal the election - he’s threatening war against multiple allies 👍👍👍

I know this is small potatoes, but I really, really hate that Amazon has rights to Tolkien IP, and that this douchebag is going to continue to make money off of it for at least 3 more seasons.

Lots of follows lately from Star Trek and Lord of the Rings fans lately. Guess I'm doin' something right here. My brand remains strong.

The EduTube company Complexly has gone non-profit! This move completely makes sense. Complexly is a societal good, and I'm excited to see what this new chapter holds for 21st century informal education. www.youtube.com/watch?v=eziN...

Last week the story was that TikTok censored anti-Trump/ICE/Pretti videos after the U.S. ownership change. We investigated with a large set of US TikTok data and found some interesting results, short thread...

Everybody's talking about how to root out ICE agents infiltrating your resistance groups. You're overthinking it. Just ask everyone these simple questions: 1. What does the First Amendment say 2. What does the Fourth Amendment say 3. What was the last book you read 4. Tell me about your feelings

Somebody posted this in the Thielmarillion group on the Crooked Friends of the Pod Discord server. This is multiple layers of hilarious

there’s a training coming up for those of us in other states 👀

This is the way. Be creative.

The title of this preprint sounds like something I have definitely heard said on the bridge of the USS Enterprise

If you are stupid enough to take research money from *checks notes* a "50-something year-old bachelor/businessman/philanthropist who had been arrested for solicitation of a prostitute,” you are too stupid to be a scientist. www.sfgate.com/bayarea/arti...

I'm tired of preparing for my neighborhood to be invaded by a masked lawless paramilitary group instead of doing science

Don’t worry everybody. I already searched for Carl Sagan’s name. Our childhoods are preserved.

they should make a movie series about how it’s irresponsible to use technology to mess with the natural order of things for profit

I look at boobs a lot more than the average person, yet it has taken me 5 years to realize that my profile pic looks like one. I just manifest boobs, I guess.

Go Texas!

Palantir is creating a digital panopticon and Peter Thiel is a fake nerd who can’t spell “Palantír.”

“Stop talking about ‘normalizing breastfeeding!’ It’s already normalized!” The Epstein files:

I am really enjoying having the Eastern Bluebirds here for the winter. They seem to be very social and full of personality. It's a shame they are not here year-round. North Texas #photography #birds #birdphotography #nature #naturephotography #Texas #backyardbirds

Men aren’t born with a propensity to commit acts of sexual violence. It is socialized behavior, often learned through abuse itself. Take fraternities and hazing as one example. The slightly older students beat the younger ones and the cycle continues year after year. Sports teams, armies, the same.
