"The Texas race to me is the most interesting Senate race in both parties," David Brooks says. "It gets at the core debate right at the middle of both parties." https://to.pbs.org/4r4EYQu

“We put them in our agreement” means there are no restrictions in the underlying models, unlike Anthropic, and you’re relying on *checks notes* the Trump administration to hold to this. So. Yeah.

Seems worth noting that ChatGPT Health failed to identify medical emergencies more than half the time in a recent study. The company that made that product just signed a deal with the "Department of War" and said trust us, it's all very safe and ethical.

The Paramount and Warner Bros. merger could make one of the largest media empires in the world, controlling two key movie studios, multiple streaming platforms and two of the biggest news operations on television. https://to.pbs.org/4s9f9iW

*sigh* if you or someone you know is a military member in one of these graduate study programs or recently finished one, I'd like to hear from you @taskandpurpose.com . I'm on signal at nslayton.12

This draft Trump EO on voting is even nuttier than you imagined. Zeroing out all voter rolls and making everyone re-register in person. Mandatory annual online re-registration. Requiring anyone casting an absentee ballot to find a notary. No dropboxes. All post-election disputes federalized. 😟

Paramount should enjoy its growing news monopoly while they have it because when Democrats win back power we are going to break up these anti-democratic information conglomerates. All of them.

HAPPENING NOW: Thousands of DC high schools students have walked out to demand ICE OUT of our communities. They’re gathering at the Lincoln Memorial in an incredible show of power and unity. #ICEout #endtheoccupation #stopcooperation

"They unleashed an army of highly talented, skilled, and competent public servants that now have the motivation and the time to fight back,” she said. “They've tried to break our souls. They tried to break us down, but they're not going to take that fighting servant spirit. They're really not.”

I have been mistaken for a foreign drone and shot down alas

GPAHE has to be one of the most under-rated research orgs in the game right now. So many groups have been skittish in the second Trump era, afraid of criticism or partisan attacks, but this team keeps calling balls and strikes without fear of ruffling feathers.

After Jason Lee opened a camera shop in Eagle Rock, I thought, man, that'd be a fun story to do. I did not know that it would eventually lead to him threatening to take me to court. For @defector.com, the whole bloody affair: defector.com/a-compliment...

I am sad about this. I have always appreciated that a white male Olympian made run/walking acceptable and popular. Thanks, Jeff! www.espn.com/olympics/sto...

Five alarm fire. The entire cable news ecosystem and the largest online outlets will all be center-right to full-on Nazi: 100% mobster/oligarch propaganda, lies, and censorship, and nothing else.

Far right voices in Colorado, including GOP gubernatorial candidate Joe Oltmann, have long called for this step as a prelude to military tribunals and mass executions.

I think one reason I’ve been pro-Palestinian or w/e u wanna call it for a long time is because my politics are primarily “you take the side of the victim.” I don’t really understand people who wouldn’t and it seems like a commonsensical,easy principle to hold. Even setting aside the body counts, it…

Again: trans people are a very small minority. If your *KNEEJERK* reaction when you encounter these rare & beautiful butterflies is *ANYTHING* other than “What can I do to make your life a little brighter?” you need to interrogate yourself. Impede the life of trans ppl & you’re in danger, from me. ❤️
