Exactly!

Yep. Those of us who have been watching this for years know that the Trumpies are trying to smear Walz for their own nefarious reasons.

What a surprise!

NYE, 2025: Who better to give us a message of inspiration and hope than Jane Goodall? I hope her last message gives all of you some perspective and motivation needed to look forward to 2026. 💙 CB

This is amazing! Piglet zoomies are great!

I still have a games subscription to the @NYTimes. Just discovered a form in which you can request they add words to the Spelling Bee game, so I’ll be doing that almost daily 1 / 2

It can be very enjoyable to know that you’re doing as much as you can not to hurt living creatures. I’ve been vegan since 2001 and am grateful that so many people have joined me or, at the least, cut back on animal products.

We don’t claim her ☠️😭

Why did they scrub this? Surely he’s just giving her investment advice. /s

Beautiful piece about Rob Reiner& his opposite from the inimitable @jojofromjerz.bsky.social jojofromjerz.substack.com/p/what-endures?

I don’t get tears in my eyes often, but…

A really well-put-together 15 min talk about how to be appropriately skeptical. Enjoy! youtu.be/o4I_hOz_MLw?

Nice news!

Feverishly working on this

When Republicans inevitably blame mental health and not the guns for yet another school shooting - kindly remind them that 205 of them voted AGAINST a bill to expand school-based mental health services.

I don't believe everyone who interacted with Jeffrey Epstein after his conviction was a pedophile, but I know all of them were able to excuse pedophilia and child sex trafficking if it benefited them

Some people are getting an error message trying to download the new Epstein photos from the @oversightdemocrats.house.gov Dropbox link. I downloaded the files before it was overloaded, so I've uploaded them to the Internet Archive if you're having the same problem accessing them:

Found the coolest website that takes random found cassette tapes people submit and digitizes them. I’m listening to an NYC hip hop station from 1994: intertapes.net

Hadn’t heard of this metric before but it makes sense.

I don’t use AI on purpose but, when it’s forced upon me, it seems to do about this well.

Know your rights. Protect your neighbors. New York is — and always will be — a city for all immigrants.

So succinctly expressed - wish I'd written it.

Well, that’s terrifying.

How exciting!!!

Wow. Sure am glad we have this tech-savvy, undistracted, and professional federal government to regulate AI and keep us safe! /s www.nbcnews.com/tech/securit...

Secretary Pete Hegseth, a Princeton graduate, was unable to comprehend that photographs create mirror images of their subjects. Here's why affirmative action has lowered the standards of Ivy League admissions.

I had no idea, and I doubt this will get a lot of media coverage.

No I don't want the AI attachment, no I don't want the AI tool, no I will not download it, no don't give me the option, no I don't want you to save me time, no I don't want your fake "thinking," no I don't want your mid technology, yes I reject your downgrading and de-skilling, please fuck off.

Murdoch and Musk are controlling the narrative on two of the biggest platforms and pushing disturbing propaganda.

@demlabs.bsky.social Is your page all AI? Why do you repeat posts three times?

That’s how it’s done!

Also: by definition, LLMs include the work of many stupid people. I resent the use of AI even more because it contains such bad thinking and writing.

How do Dems pick their consultants? How do the norably awful ones keep getting rehired? It makes a huge difference. www.thebulwark.com/p/trumps-eps...?

The two marquee winners from Tuesday night were different in many ways, but they had one thing in common: They fought. And they both were willing to say discrimination is wrong with Mamdani going further to say, by me standing up for EVERYONE is how you know I'll stand up for you.

I have a background in financial crimes detection. Krugman is absolutely right. There is no reason to want an unregulated financial system other than crime.

Tan dulce.

Excellent thread about supporting REAL newsgathering, not the house organs if the oligarchs.

Having one of those “put on new sneakers and immediately step in dogshit” sort of days. You?

Swell. Let’em eat televisions.

Perhaps he’d been nailed to the Resolute Desk!

Hey, WaPo: No one needs you to suck up to Trump. Plenty of other media are already on that beat. I bet this op-ed was written before the speech, with spaces to fill in a few words here and there. Disgusting. www.msn.com/en-us/news/u...?
