There are reports of ICE activity on the north side of Chicago happening now. Please share so people in the area can be aware and take precautions. If you’re in the area please come by our office at 7016 N Clark St for ICE whistles. We protect each other. Chinga la migra.

So, I'm currently reading The Rosewater Redemption by Tade Thompson and I just came across a passage that stuck out to me: He wants Rosewater razed and the soil salted so that nothing can grow there again. He has said as much. He has declared the population traitors for not fleeing or defecting.

Democrats may not be able to prevent Mullin's confirmation, but they can certainly turn his track record of offense and stupidity into two days of televised humiliation so spectacular that he is wounded in Trump's eyes from day 1. That is the job.

Keep saying "slop" in reference to AI. At every opportunity. The techbros are listening, and this word makes them so sad on the inside that they'll hoist themselves on their own Streisand Effect petard.

Looks like the original has been swept away by the sands of time.

Name your tools. Physical tools, like wrenches, are easier to deploy (and much easier to deploy in a multi-user environment) if they have names. Logical tools, like "humorous recontextualization" are the same way. Know their names and they'll be easier to use. Thread? Thread. 🧵

BREAKING: A push to name one of Chicago’s snowplows “Abolish ICE,” clearly linking the humorous pun to efforts to oppose President Donald Trump’s mass deportation effort, won the city’s annual snowplow naming contest, officials announced. @wttw.bsky.social

And that brings us to the crux of my opposition to GenAI: by using it, artists of all stripes are denying themselves the opportunity to become the next Jack Kirby, or Shakespeare, or Mary Shelley. The next generation of inventors of artistic styles and forms will invent nothing if they use AI.
