Again, people keep saying this as if we haven’t been seeing the same thing play out at Columbia smack dab in Harlem.

We staffed the entire FBI with guys who only make memes and podcasts, hope that doesn't affect our ability to respond to major crimes

Happy Hanukkah everyone!

I’m gonna keep posting menorahs the timeline needs light.

speaking of “you should never trust Meta and no one should have ever trusted them but there’s no time like the present to start”

When this "AI" bubble pops, the men pretending they weren't pushing the hype, like "critics" whose position is "AGI is real but LLMs aren't the way," who were in eugenicist and "AI existential risk"🙄 circles, will get specials discussing what they saw coming, when its the women who told you so.

SCOOP: The Trump administration is providing the names of all travelers passing through U.S. airports to immigration officials in search of people with deportation orders, a substantial expansion of government efforts to draw on data to hunt down immigrants. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/12/u...

one thing that doesn’t get enough coverage or comment with regards to this administration is it how much it hates the actually existing united states

you ever think about how buck wild it must have been to be the first European colonizer to see a hummingbird? “i saw a tiny bug that was also a bird, and it had hatred in its heart.”

Most white people simply cannot grasp that AAVE is a separate language, not “broken” English. This is partly due to AAVE’s more-complex, stricter governing rules—which were originally curated to confuse white people; Black people acquire these rules naturally. [I’m Black with a Linguistics degree]

Can't bring myself to share the story of how this awful regime has misgendered Admiral Rachel Levine. I credit her for saving many of our lives in Pennsylvania and around the country in 2020. She was our Chief Health Officer and I welcomed her briefings during the lockdowns. Transphobia is vile.

Anon account commenting on a video of my new sumo lift: “you’re built like a truck.” Which is true. Now consider if you stand in front of a truck and let that knowledge guide you…

We are in a bad place, but we have the tools and the opportunity and the courage to find our way out. A year ago, I feared that would not be the case. We still have to DO it, of course. But now, I have faith and belief that there's a path.

My constituent, Wilmer, was mauled by an ICE attack dog despite the fact that, as he has consistently explained, he was not resisting arrest or trying to flee—his wife and young children, all U.S. citizens, were forced to watch helplessly as Wilmer was violently attacked and dragged away.

The easiest thing for Democrats to do would be to stop confirming Trump judges, but they can’t even be bothered to do that. Just failure all the way down. I really hate these people.

I don't consider the Supreme Court to be legitimate. I also know that the Democratic party is not up to the challenge of disempowering the court so the illegitimate court will continue to exist for years to come. Folks will have to figure out how to move with this in mind.

Everyday people continue to show up where leaders and institutions falter and fail.

bringing back shame and consequences would not by any means be the ballgame, but it would certainly be something

It turns out that the folks at Anthropic used two of my books to train their Large Language Models. I've gone and submitted my claim via the class action settlement. If you're an author whose work has been stolen, you should too

Email just went out on my campus that the Immigration Goons ("federal immigration agents") will be in town (Raleigh). Inter alia, it says,"International students, faculty and staff should carry evidence of their immigration status with them at all times." The fuck kind of country are we living in?

Simon's mother is Emily Bazelon, the NYT journalist and his father is Paul Sabin, a Yale professor. Simon was a legacy student nepo baby at Yale who graduated this year and was born with a silver spoon in his mouth and yet he thinks he knows best for the Dem party.

If you can, you should join an organization. Your random "advice" on social media is just that, random advice. If you are part of an organization, then you can convince others to execute those ideas with you.

Or better yet, “I will continue my job that puts me in contact with piles of young women, and will certainly continue attempting to victimize them, but I won’t give as many speeches.” What a deal! No. This man should lose everything.

“Olivia Nuzzi is on the phone, she wants to do a profile” starting to approach Isaac Chotiner levels of danger

Cool journalists would never actually want to live the life that Nuzzi or Lizza leads because it is so ridiculous. Just a total hellscape of gossip, crimes, and sociopathy. Money is great though. That's the part we got to work on. Non-sociopaths should get paid too.

my aunt did exactly this to me as a teen and good on her (I had been told by boys that feminism was the belief that women are always better than men)

This is how you know that it's not about the money. Because if it were, then libraries would not keep being defunded.

Imagine escaping the literal Nazis, making it to America, living three quarters of a century there making your life, and then this:

Are we “Great” yet?

underrated bit of handwaving in the lizza blog

HE WILL KEEP TEACHING COLLEGE A JOB THAT INVOLVES PROXIMITY TO YOUNG WOMEN

Servants of the donor class are protected.

I will say again that it has been just *beyond* hammered home for me that not only do we not live in a meritocracy, we live in an economic and sociopolitical order that actively rewards avarice, incompetence, unkindness, dishonesty. And tbh that makes me feel better about my lack of success.

I filed my claim.

i’m gathering my thoughts for a piece about All Of This and the word “rot” just keeps popping up

So Harvard is keeping this guy, but Claudine Gay had to step down over ginned up plagiarism accusations and bad-faith accusations of anti-Semitism. Got it.

everything makes so much more sense now

Looking for what you can do to make you voice heard? This campaign is gaining traction. The enablers have to feel it. weaintbuyingit.com

I love mess but man this whole thing underlines how much it sucks that all the worst journalists somehow end up with flashy high-paying media jobs

Anti-DEI is just pro white supremacy.

Well, I'll be damned. The War on Christmas is real.

It's actually the confidence of a *mediocre* white man, the race matters. And Olivia Nuzzi isn't channeling that confidence. She's channeling a specific kind of white femininity that's normalized in white supremacy.
