Ready for a wild statistic? Nearly 10% of the United States' population has died since 2018 when Donald Trump started promising that he had a healthcare plan that he'd reveal in four weeks. Since that first promise, he averaged 6 similar (broken) promises per year. Yes, even over Biden's term.

25% of "disapproving" Trump voters now say they didn't vote for him. 12% of them now say they voted for Harris. www.theargumentmag.com/p/the-trump-...

The US President, which does not offer free healthcare to his own people, wants his own people to offer free healthcare… to Greenland… which already has free healthcare. Maybe it is time for another brain scan for the US president.

So why argue that an LLM might actually be more energy efficient than a human at a particular job? The only way that energy efficiency actually results in any savings is if you start eliminating humans. Not eliminating human JOBS. Eliminating HUMANS.

Two things are simultaneously true: 1. The Iranian regime treats its people with extreme brutality and cruelty, and we should honour the citizens seeking to overthrow it. 2. A US attack on Iran would turn a crisis into a catastrophe.

Firms are gearing up for the Refund Wars now. We're likely to see billions transferred from government to corporate coffers. And good! The taxes were illegal. But *consumers* shouldered much of the tariff burden. And won't get those refunds. A massive wealth transfer from consumers to investors.

Getting shown up in the arena of elite impunity by *the British monarchy* is an incredible “America at 250!” achievement

UK: Prince Andrew arrested. South Korea: Former President Yoon sentenced for life. Brazil: Former President Bolsonaro serving a 27-year sentence. USA: President Trump demands $10 billion payout from taxpayers.

Found an additional graphic that gets even more of these quotes together. I've kept "I hate myself, I hate clover, and I hate bees" pinned above my desk since I first started studying evolutionary biology as an undergraduate. So relatable to get extremely frustrated with your study system.

The most common response I get as an Irish- American is "we did it legally" and then they have absolutely no interest in learning about historical trends in immigration. Ellis Island had a checkbox for stowaways and they think they're the product of some highly vetted process.

Today I remembered how @mowillems.bsky.social led art classes on YouTube in spring 2020 when we all went into lockdown. My kids loved drawing the pigeon. What a hero. 💚

You know who really ought to pay attention the result in TX Sen 9? Democratic leadership in Congress.

"A ceasefire in name only. Another dark day with 30 people reportedly killed only today. Enough. People in Gaza deserve a genuine ceasefire - a much overdue ceasefire." - UNRWA Commissioner-General Philippe Lazzarini

According to these figures London is safer than many if not all major North American cities. In 2025, there were 1.1 killings for every 100,000 residents of London, compared to 2.8 in New York, 5.6 in Los Angeles, 10.5 in Houston and 12.3 in Philadelphia www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

I understand it's hard for some to use the term concentration camp, even for those horrified by what's happening. And there are settings (e.g., court) where it may not be helpful today. The key thing to realize is that there's an arc of how detention regimes tend to go, and we're recognizably on it.
