I struggle with the reporting on ChatGPT in education because it often confirms society’s negative bias against young people—oh no, this generation is unsaveable!—when it’s possible to just educate people to be less credulous about it. which is why I wrote this: so teachers could print and assign it

It's 2015. President Barack Obama has accepted a "sky palace" jumbo jet from the Qatari government, which he'll own after he leaves office. "Everybody relax," he says in an interview with the New York Times. Everyone does. The networks then televise the military parade in his honor on his birthday.

If you're going to watch Murderbot on Apple TV, consider adding it to your watchlist. It's kind of like pre-ordering a book, it tells the streaming service that you're there for our show. Link for US viewers: tv.apple.com/us/show/murd... (You can also search for it on the app.)

Occasionally I get questions about “how exactly was the insurance company Nate worked for responsible for his son’s death on the original LEVERAGE?” and it’s nice to have a current news item to point them to. The shittiness continues unabated!

Since the Trump admin continues to claim Mr. Abrego Garcia is a gang member, I thought I'd take the time to put together a timeline, based on all the documents filed in court, which lays out all the "evidence" the government has ever offered. As you'll find out, there's very little "there" there!

This is so deeply evil. Trump and his admin illegally moved him to Louisiana so they can shop for a judge and get this verdict. The precedent set here is one where anyone can be disappeared. Remember, the admin said multiple times they do not believe Khalil committed any crimes

I'd bet most Americans don't realize the six Nazi extermination camps during World War II also involved rendition to a foreign country. Auschwitz, Treblinka, Belzec, Sobibor, Chełmno and Majdanek were all located in Poland. Not Germany. Important historical fact.

Kidnapping. Capturing a person against their will without due process is called kidnapping. Transporting them to another country without due process is called human trafficking. A squalid extrajudicial prison for people found guilty of no crime is called a concentration camp.

The courts should put an immediate and unequivocal halt to all use of the CECOT prison in El Salvador, with or without due process. They may not do that. But the people of the US still can. Don't lose of sight of this atrocity amidst the other outrages. Make this a key focus of resistance.

I saw the video of the journalist being burned alive by accident and I'm reminded again that because so much of our government and "thought leaders" are deeply offline they can't really grasp the horrors people are seeing and wanting stopped

The more people talk about the lack of criminal records of people sent to el salvador the further I drift from thinking it matters. I began at "justice for the hairdresser". Now my position is "rescue every dude in there whether we sent them there, or not". Nobody should be treated like that, ever.

Friends, I know you're excited to try protesting, but under no circumstances should you ever sign up to attend one. I'm suspicious of any org asking people to put their name on a list that is easily accessible via warrant or may even be public. You can just show up day of.

I’m going to join this. Not because I think Booker is progressive enough for me or is perfect on all accounts, but because his courage and willingness to disrupt business as usual (as so many of us have asked) deserves credit and recognition. Appreciate this and encourage similar behavior!

I am not moved by politicians often, but I am moved by Booker today. I hope more dems callously see how much attention he's commanding today take his lead. I don't care if the reason they do it is craven-- I just want them to fucken fight. also fuck strom thurmand may he rest in piss

That's right, Cory Booker is thanking his staff who obviously have been prepping for several days and planning/preparing for this moment. They did a great job. No Dr. Seuss books needed, this man went out and PREACHED for a full freaking day and he had the receipts. All thanks to his staff.

Just so everybody understands, Booker has been speaking cogently about the issues the entire time and Strom Thurmond famously spent hours reading from the encyclopedia, because segregationists were and are dumbshits
