Now if you ask how they like their skis, they will universally tell you THEY LOVE THEM!… I figured out the answer back in the sixties… THEY PAID FOR THEM! Furthermore, they probably haven’t been on anything else. And believe me, every ski has a different character lefsetz.com/wordpress/20...

“Someone who says I’m against abortion but is in favor of the death penalty is not really pro‑life. Someone who says I’m against abortion but I’m in agreement with the inhuman treatment of immigrants who are in the United States. I don’t know if that’s pro-life” vitrok.substack.com/p/pave-leo-o...

I have been riding the DC metro, alone, since I was in middle school, and brought my children on it when they were even younger

Först Rysslands ambassadör, nu detta. Man börjar ju nästan fundera på om det är någon slags trend.

“ABC7 spoke to Pertissue Fisher, a woman who lives in the building. She said ICE agents took everyone in the building, including her, and asked questions later….’They was bringing the kids down, too, had them zip tied to each other.’” It can’t happen here, you say. But it is happening.

On average, people with a poor sleep profile had brains that appeared nearly one year older than expected based on their chronological age… late chronotype and abnormal sleep duration stood out as the biggest contributors to faster brain ageing theconversation.com/poor-sleep-m...

– Vissa menar att keffiyeh också blivit en symbol för palestinsk identitet och frihetskamp. Men generellt har den använts av praktiska eller identitetsskapande skäl. Det är som att säga att Davidsstjärnan är politisk www.etc.se/inrikes/poli...

Something to make you smile. This is the sweetest thing I’ve ever seen. 😊

Noterar hur ofta tidningsrubriker innehåller falsk information eller talepunkter som tänjer sanningen - och hur spridningen och upprepningen av rubrikerna bidrar till att skapa associationer som inte stämmer. Artiklarna kan vara hur välgrundade som helst, men rubrikerna befäster misinformationen.

Within ten minutes of my parcel disappearing into the wrong hands, I phoned the Royal Mail, and waited 30 minutes to get through… I ask how I, the customer, find out what’s happened to it. ”If you’d like feedback, you have to request it – that’ll be another ten days” johnjsills.com/2025/10/02/a...

Years before Hitler invaded the USSR, Nazi agents planted fake disloyalty rumors about Stalin’s top generals on Vienna phone lines they knew Soviets had tapped. They convinced Stalin to purge & shoot his own best generals before the outbreak of war. Imagine Putin’s FSB planting gossip today…🤔

Jane Goodall was my first childhood hero, as I loved animals as a kid and was inspired by her story. I still remember the National Geographic specials about her. RIP.

Opytne had been stranded between frontlines since 2014. For eight years, residents lived without electricity, water, gas, heat, groceries, or access to health care and other essential services. The only way in or out was by a mud road through a minefield www.theguardian.com/world/2025/o...

“With all due respect to current world leaders, football is bigger than them and football will survive their regime and their government and their slogans” www.theguardian.com/football/202...

Iteration and innovation are both valuable, but they’re not the same. Iteration makes things better. Innovation makes things different. And if you want to be truly remarkable, you need to know when to iterate, when to innovate, and how to do both well guykawasaki.substack.com/p/the-differ...

Your old system told you what it counted. The AI tells what similar analyses typically conclude… The AI completes the task in 30 seconds… But your team doesn’t learn anything in the process… the AI never developed a feel for what’s typical in your data nickpotkalitsky.substack.com/p/when-ai-an...

Trump posted an AI-generated video that touted purported “medbeds,” a non-existent healing technology that people falsely believe will miraculously cure all maladies… Even before Trump re-shared the video, the medbed discourse was extremely active on Truth Social www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

I was pulled from the car… My wallet with my identification was in the car, but the agents refused to go confirm I was a citizen. Instead, I sat in the dirt with my hands zip-tied with other detainees for four hours… I was taken away and thrown in a jail cell www.sfchronicle.com/opinion/open...

A bus of Bronx middle schoolers pulled up to the Capitol this morning for a long-planned field trip just a few hours after the government shut down. All Capitol tours were cancelled as the guides can’t work in shutdown. So I escorted them in myself and gave them a personal tour. They were great!

Vance: "If you're an American citizen & you've been to the hospital in the last few years, you've probably noticed wait times are especially large & very often somebody who's there in the ER is an illegal alien. Why do those people get healthcare benefits at hospitals paid for by American citizens?"

I’m not thinking the way I used to think. I can feel it most strongly when I’m reading… As Marshall McLuhan pointed out, media are not just passive channels of information. They also shape the process of thought www.newcartographies.com/p/is-google-...

Solar and wind power have become important sources of energy in recent years. But the reason they have grown rapidly while coal has declined isn’t that the chardonnay set considers coal unfashionable… coal is no longer cost-competitive, wind and solar are paulkrugman.substack.com/p/fossil-fue...

3,340 adolescents aged 11 to 19 who used social media were interviewed face-to-face… teens with conditions such as anxiety and depression report being particularly negatively affected by social media, and also have lower self-control regarding time spent online www.bps.org.uk/research-dig...

LLMs cannot be trusted to do something correctly, or even consistently, every time… a user that pays $20-a-month could run multiple queries that eat up eight GPUs a month, and there's no real way to stop them… the dumbest shit the tech industry has ever done www.wheresyoured.at/the-case-aga...

Nigel Farage announced that if he wins power he will deport hundreds of thousands of people living legally in the UK… None of the responses from the liberal political or media class labelled the plans a moral abomination, an afront to basic humanity or fairness www.donotpanic.news/p/house-negr...

One of the simplest and most reliable ways to stay current is through journal table of contents (ToC) alerts… use platforms such as PubMed and Google Scholar to create a personalized surveillance system… follow the researchers themselves www.nature.com/articles/d41...
