A reminder that the @nytimes.com told New Yorkers to not rank Mamdani at all, & instead endorsed former hedge fund manager Whitney Tilson. Tilson sits at a whopping .8%. Corporate media trust is dead. They killed themselves by failing to fulfill their promise of holding the powerful accountable.

the political lesson everyone should take from Iraq is that you will regret being in favor of this sooner or later and the earlier you were against it the better off you’ll be ignore the media frenzy and stake your position now, it’s the right thing to do and it’s the ambitious thing to do too

It takes 3.5% leading a mass uprising and shutting down the Capitol for weeks at a time. Waiving a bunch of signs in public parks for a single day isn't going to magically do it.

Periodic reminder that every day is STFU Friday Also, sharing the location of cops in the public performance of their jobs is ironclad First Amendment-protected expression If you're concerned something you've said has you on the Government's radar, call your lawyer instead of posting through it

Oh fuck literally every single part of this; not only removing privacy protections, but ACTIVELY INCREASING PRIVACY HARMS by giving Federal Preferences to the data brokerage industry??? No. Fuck this, no.

This kind of thing, by the way, is exactly why a ten year moratorium on "AI" regulations would be a FUCKING TERRIBLE idea. Without meaningful regulations backing up an ability to sue for damages, there's not much to quickly force these people to stop making harmful tools.

It’s not just the New York Times, obviously. You will never be opposing Trump in precisely the right way for these people. They insist on the Goldilocks protest movement that has never existed in history.

@npr.org for every minute spent talking to a non-autistic person about autistic people's needs, you should be giving at least 2x that amount to actually autistic people— & not just in written stories, but on-air. Apply said rubric to any other group under attack right now for their lived realities.

If any 3 increasingly disgruntled republican congresspeople are reading this, just a small reminder that enough house members can force mike johnson to put articles of impeachment up for a floor vote, and it only takes a simple majority to adopt them. Don't worry about the senate, just count to 218.

The Massachusetts governor, the city, and the university needs to drop everything to locate and free this girl and make sure this doesn't happen again. This is DEFCON-1. If they do this to someone who wrote an op-ed in a college newspaper, they will do this to anyone they don't like.

Being snatched off the street for your opinions. I'll say it again. We are deciding, right now, whether the aspirations we hold for this country are finished. Whether we're going to let these hoodlums and grifters throw what's left of the American idea into the garbage for their own profit and gain.

Yep, it sure is. Just like a lot of people warned it was likely to be. Racism, sexism, ableism, and other prejudicial biases are just… all up in there in all "AI" and the creators of these systems have never really done anything to foundationally address that fact: scholar.google.com/citations?vi...

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave. Tell them: 1. Vote NO on Cloture AND 2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill. Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it. TODAY is the showdown. 🤳🏽: (202) 224-3121

i keep seeing the right argue that the nazi salutes are "trolling." i think there's some truth to that, but know what exactly is being mocked. they aren't mocking the idea that they could be nazis, they're mocking the idea that they should care one way or the other.

I really really need you guys to make a conscious rejection of generative AI tools part of your ongoing political resistance. Don't use ChatGPT. Turn off Gemini. Don't read the AI results forced upon you at the top of Google search. Don't use AI art generators or support anyone who does. Please.

Every single report on the Trump funding freeze — every report on Medicare portal, Head Start, homeless veterans programs — needs to mention immediately WHY. The freeze is in order to complete an ideological purge of so-called “woke” programming. This is IMPORTANT, y’all.
