Every word of this. Except Vivian Silver is the easy one. The same should apply to *every single* Israeli civilian. And Palestinian children are the easy ones. The same should apply to *every single* Palestinian civilian. If you don't actually feel those losses, please, I'm begging you. Shut. Up.

Happy “Rapid Unscheduled Disassembly” Day, to all who celebrate 🚀💥

When we warn the real threat of AI is how it’s used against people in the present, not the fantasies that some day computers might think for themselves, this is exactly the kind of thing we’re talking about: health insurers using AI to deny care. arstechnica.com/health/2023/...

A report came out today from the UN that 20,000 Ukranian children age 0-17 were kidnapped by Russian soldiers (sexual assault never happens, right?) and shipped forcibly to Belarus. Belarus has them hostage. Nary a peep. It’s antisemitism.

Other than that Mrs. Lincoln, how was the show?

Ugh it’s all so terrible

“Let’s take up a collection for the world’s richest man.”

Demanding "no monkey pushing" and no lessons about fossil fuels that might "cast the oil-and-gas industry in a bad light," Texas education commissars move to block science textbooks from eight publishers—🎁:

🔥 YES! New EU law to send polluters to jail. European Union legislators reached agreement yesterday on a new directive that will see *jail sentences* of up to 10 years for the worst polluters and companies fined up to 5% of their global turnover. 👏👏👏

When they go low, we get high

The single best meme I've think I've ever seen.

Something to add to my #AdminLaw syllabus on Due Process

Brilliant Twitter Blue Check’s rebuttal: Well ACTUALLY Popehat Elon DOES have to wait until Monday to e-file in federal court — because his lawyers aren’t registered to do it yet?

A photo I took when I was photographing a protest in northwestern Syria. Victory for the Syrian revolution and for Ukraine 💚

another good one: "guard the cattle. don't tell me 'the gutians are invading, so i can't guard the cattle!'. i'll set up a patrol, you tell THEM if the gutians are invading. i don't want to hear 'the gutians are invading!'. if you tell me that the gutians have stolen your cattle, you're on your own"

To survive, I need Black people. And I need Black people to survive.

Great (very) Blue Heron in the early morning sun. This isn't true color. I was wearing thick gloves due to the cold and apparently fumbled the camera's white balance setting a couple of clicks into the blue without realizing it. That said, I like the effect.

Musk's anti-Semitism aside, if I were Apple or IBM or the local donuts shop, I wouldn't want to put my ads on a site where this sort of thing is considered acceptable. Old Twitter had many issues, but this would have been quickly nuked. Musk, meanwhile, calls it "free speech."
