Just as porn creates unrealistic views and expectations for sex, AI chatbots will create unrealistic views and expectations for relationships overall. adamgrant.substack.com/p/what-ai-co...

Dr. Brittany Penner, an author and practicing family physician in Manitoba, joined me to talk about her new memoir, "Children Like Us: A Métis Woman's Memoir of Family, Identity and Walking Herself Home." #podcast #betterme #adoption #Métis podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/e...

I actually don't really care if AI is useful/interesting/good for some things in education actually - it is besides these things clearly a big problem already that maybe need listing yet again:

Portland is ... right there. It's a real place. People live in it. People can go look at it. You could call someone there right now.

This is going to end up like the subprime disaster in the U.S. apple.news/AdcVuhlvSRrS...

9/11 The rising rate of autism diagnoses over the past decades is not a mystery. It's the result of two main factors: 👉 A broader, more accurate medical definition of autism. 👉 Greatly improved screening and greater public awareness.

It's not about the money, this costs $1 million a year. It's because the Trump admin is filled with malicious eugenicists. This brings them joy.

As John Mayer warned: “When they own the information, they can bend it all they want.”

Marjorie Taylor Greene doesn’t want you to know her opponent’s name. That’s how desperate she is to keep her seat. I’m Shawn Harris. I am a Democrat, husband, father, Retired Brigadier General, and farmer. I’m running against her. Share my name.

“It is simply easier for some people to believe that the United States government has concocted a vast conspiracy to take away all of our guns than it is to believe that it is too easy for a mentally ill person to acquire one and shoot anyone they want.”

Is she talking to Groypers? Because dems just want her to have good health care.

An apology is insufficient. Everyone email [email protected] and tell them Kilmeade must be fired immediately. #GoodTrouble

I am having a hard time reconciling "Charlie Kirk was a fierce advocate of open dialogue and free expression" with "we must identify and persecute everyone who is insufficiently mournful"

This 👉 There are plenty of academics, unfortunately, who also believe that AI will not damage the critical thinking skills of students. They've got a surprise coming. AI will not damage & even be useful to those who already have sufficient critical thinking skills. It will damage everyone else.

A friend of mine was on Charlie Kirk's "watch list" of Black professors. She received so many death and rape threats that her university offered her a security detail for the walk to class. This is Kirk's legacy. You would never know it from reading all of these legacy newspaper op-eds about him.

Billionaire Trump donor Elon Musk owns X. Billionaire Trump ally Jeff Bezos owns The Washington Post. With this acquisition, both CNN and CBS News would be owned by billionaire Trump donor Larry Ellison. Oligarchs’ monopoly over our media is spiraling out of control.

Just to be clear: Brian Kilmeade *did not* endorse euthanizing homeless people. He advocated MURDERING over 700,000 of them. And on a network that has been *beside itself* over the murder of just one man this week.

The fact that Matthew Dowd lost his job for pointing out Charlie Kirk’s hate speech, while Brian Kilmeade openly suggests we should euthanize the homeless and there is zero outrage, shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.

It really seems like this season has had a lot more broken bats, catcher interference, and stops in play to fix the pitching mound. #mlb

Matthew Dowd fired from MSNBC for Charlie Kirk comment….but…. Fox host Brian Kilmead says we should kill homeless people and he gets to keep his job 🤔

History repeats itself

Unreal. A good percentage of the population is one medical crisis away from being broke and/or homeless. It could be anyone.

Remember when Republicans said that the Affordable Care Act would have death panels deciding who would live and who would die. First, that was a big lie. Second, conservatives these days have no problem saying the U.S. government should determine who’s going to die.

And if something happened to this guy tomorrow a bunch of centrist pundits would say "I don't agree with all of his ideas, but open and honest debate is a good thing so his loss is deeply felt" bsky.app/profile/atru...

This is all just being said out loud now on the air on Fox “News”, instead of away from the cameras like before. That’s what’s changed. They’re testing the response and normalizing the idea at the same time.

You know what would really bring the country together right now? Release the Epstein files.

I think it's important to remember that just because someone disagrees with Kirk's views doesn't mean they're left-wing. Reagan, Bush, and Bush Jr. would have disagreed with him on immigration alone.

Mainstream media's Charlie Kirk narrative: Sure, he believed LGBTQ people should be stoned to death, black people are inferior and unqualified, women are only meant to serve men, 10 year old girls should be forced to give birth. But he meant well.

No, Charlie Kirk was not practicing politics the right way Read @davidcorn.bsky.social on the sidestepping of Kirk's full impact on American politics.

Remembering MN house speaker Melissa Hortman, her husband Mark and their beloved dog Gilbert. Murdered in June at their home by a rightwing Trump-voting evangelist, who also shot another MN lawmaker and his wife at THEIR home, 9 and 8 times, respectively (miraculously, they survived).

Baby was too young to be vaccinated but we don’t just get vaccinated for ourselves but for everyone—especially the most vulnerable—around us.

@altuk.bsky.social I’m hoping to attend OER2026. Do you know the dates and location?

For everyone saying political violence has no place in this country… Remember two Democratic legislators were shot in Minnesota just this year. And America shrugged and moved on.

You know who was also a young husband and father—not to mention ex-Marine—who died, not attacking others to make himself rich and powerful, but to save the lives of others? David Rose, the officer killed by the anti-vax domestic terrorist who attacked the CDC. apnews.com/article/deka...

“In the wake of those shootings, an industry has emerged to try to protect schools — and business is booming. According to research, the school security industry is now worth as much as $4 billion, and it's projected to keep growing.” The school shooting industry. “American exceptionalism?”

The murder of Charlie Kirk was criminal, wrong, and should be condemned. And Charlie Kirk was a horrible, hateful man who spent his life radicalizing young people to embrace their worst demons by targeting women, people of color, immigrants, and the marginalized. I refuse to sanitize him.

There was a lot of violence today across the country. Our hearts are with the families in Colorado who lost their children as well as Charlie Kirk’s family. Violence is never the answer. We must come together to build safer, stronger communities, and take decisive action to address gun violence.

NEW: “Minutes after right-wing activist Charlie Kirk was fatally shot while speaking at an event in Utah on Wednesday, far-right influencers and extremist communities lit up social media with calls for violence against the left.” @davidgilbert.bsky.social reports www.wired.com/story/far-ri...

It is weird that the assassination of essentially a celebrity influencer is a bigger deal than the shooting of two top state legislators + their spouses

Thank you, Senator Warren.
