And by the way, training your monster on data produced in part by my own hands, without attribution or compensation. To the others: I apologize to the world at large for my inadvertent, naive if minor role in enabling this assault.

Fuck you people. Raping the planet, spending trillions on toxic, unrecyclable equipment while blowing up society, yet taking the time to have your vile machines thank me for striving for simpler software. Just fuck you. Fuck you all. I can't remember the last time I was this angry.

RFK Jr is directly responsible for the deaths of 83 children in American Samoa from measles because he told them to stop vaccinating. Now, he's trying to kill trans kids. He's a fucking psychopath.

I don’t mean to sound extreme, but I don’t think we should have torture camps for people with criminal records either.

This was entirely about purging a trans instructor from the school and they succeeded. It was aided by a lot of dumb liberals taking it at face value arguing the minutia of grading rubrics while ignoring the obvious bad faith efforts behind this.

(11/10) Additional note: Senators Maria Cantwell (D-WA) and Ted Cruz (R-TX) have introduced an amendment to strike this section of the bill. The worry is that the Senate will turn it down in order to avoid a drawn-out amendment process. This must not be allowed to happen.

(10/10) If this bill passes as written, will you fly into DCA? Personally, I will have second thoughts.

(9/10) I’m posting about this to raise awareness of the fact that the US Department of Defense, over bipartisan opposition, appears to be attempting to stop or reverse any effort that has been made to rectify the dangerous situation that existed before the tragic collision.

(8/10) NTSB chair Jennifer Homendy gave a press conference yesterday urging lawmakers to strike the provision from the bill, and prominent lawmakers from both parties have voiced opposition to the provision. However, we still don’t know who inserted it, and the bill passed the House unchanged.

(7/10) While the right to waive ADS-B doesn’t mean the right to waive the requirement for a traffic collision avoidance system, TCAS is partially inhibited below 900 feet and fully inhibited below 400 feet, where the Jan. 29 collision occurred. ADS-B is not.

(6/10) Passing the bill with this provision intact will allow military aircraft to fly right through the DCA approach areas without appearing on airliners’ traffic displays.

(5/10) The provision doesn’t require that this risk assessment be undertaken by an expert on commercial aviation, nor does the assessment have to involve input from the FAA or commercial operators using the airspace. So it’s completely toothless.

(4/10) They may grant such permission if the mission is “in the national security interests of the United States,” which is meaningless because any mission can be deemed as such. Furthermore, it requires a “commercial aviation compatibility risk assessment,” a term that isn’t defined anywhere.

(3/10) This provision allows the secretary of a military department, or a delegated general or flag officer, to permit military aircraft to fly training missions through heavily trafficked DCA airspace without ADS-B anti-collision technology.

(2/10) Basically, the current draft of the National Defense Authorization Act making its way through Congress contains a provision to roll back the safety improvements made after the DCA mid-air and make the situation as bad as it was on Jan. 29.

So, if you're someone who follows the bureaucratic side of aviation safety, you probably already know about this, but if you aren't, you might not. This is something that I feel the need to raise awareness about. (1/10)

Thank you, Ahmed al Ahmed.

There is a well coordinated national campaign targeting a single trans professor at Oklahoma University to get her fired. It's part of a broader campaign to push trans people out of public life entirely. It was never about sports.

Jeremy Ben-Ami’s new column is a defense of showing up – even in uncomfortable spaces. Boycotts harden divides, while engagement is how change is made. 📖 “Why I Disagree with Peter Beinart’s Apology for Speaking at Tel Aviv University”: jstreetdotorg.substack.com/p/why-i-disa...

Republicans: "transgenderism must be eradicated." Trans people: "they're trying to eradicate us." Republicans: "Saying we want to eradicate you is violent extremism."

"More professors in the United States have been fired for controversial views in the past week than any other week in all of American history." www.insidehighered.com/opinion/colu...

Some people on the left think just repeating “Anti-Zionism is not antisemitism” frees them from the work of thinking critically about what is and is not antisemitic. And a whole lot of people on the right think being a strong Zionist functions as a “get out of antisemitism free card.”

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

it’s not lost on me that trump and his lackeys have been even more aggressive towards reporters in the past week than usual

Charlie Kirk is the Reichstag oh my God

Report: You To Be Fired For Reading This Headline About Charlie Kirk

Silly Jimmy Kimmel. He should have just called for all homeless people to be killed and he’d still have a job.

Just eight months in and practically every media conglomerate is welcoming a fascist dictatorship

the problem with media corporations negotiating with fascists is that the negotiation is never over.

Comedy is illegal again

There is something deeply amusing about some weirdo subtly implying they'll commit identity theft against me while advocating for scammers' favorite medium of exchange. Actually, I guess that's Tether more than Bitcoin. But what do I know? I don't do research :p

Dude I don't think there's even 5 podcasts I've listened to multiple episodes of Controlled Pod Into Terrain Crypto Critics Corner Better Offline Weird Little Guys

This gets to something that as a former stand-up I recognized but couldn’t name. A 31 year old professional content creator baiting 19 year old amateurs into the format of his choice isn’t debate, it’s crowd work. It’s debate-shaped crowd work farmed for content.

the thing thats so galling abt the whole “Charlie was just a sweet boy who loved good faith debate“ line is that he was the opposite! He took advantage of naive college kids who believed in good faith debate, baited them into emotional responses and posted them online to a rabid fanbase of rw haters

I'm worried this is a Reichstag moment :(

Breaking — FEMA Acting Chief Counsel Colt Hagmaier just resigned in an email to staff. He's worked at the agency for more than a decade. Hagmaier's resignation comes immediately after two FEMA employees were placed on leave for comments about Charlie Kirk. Text of his email shared with me:

I wrote my own Charlie Kirk obituary, and about valuing truth over manners: www.thenation.com/article/poli...

It’s long past time that I take responsibility for what I wrote on Israel/Palestine in ON REPENTANCE AND REPAIR. & with the Gaza genocide, our thinking about what amends & healing may ever involve is even more urgent. Even if there may never be “forgiveness” or “atonement.”

I feel like I'm losing my mind. Here is the transcript of what Zohran Mamdani actually said about the phrase "globalize the intifada." This is his "refusal to disavow it." This is what has people terrified. Just fucking read it. Source: podscripts.co/podcasts/the...

Worth noting that Zohran won Hakeem Jeffries district. Hakeem might not endorse him, but Hakeem’s constituents already have!

Prof. Max Strassfeld: "I want to say 2 things 1) some trans youth will likely not survive Skrmetti & the denial of medical care in their states. It is a horrible decision & these fuckers have blood on their hands....I curse the fascists w/every Yiddish curse my people have ever devised. AND +

Veteran photographer Michael Nigro was shot in the head with a non-lethal bullet while covering anti-ICE protests in LA. "It felt very very intentional," Nigro tells NPR, "a chilling effect to convince us to go away." Other reporters say they have been targeted too. My story below:
