I have to admit, attempting to build a populist illiberal autocracy around the least popular president in modern polling seems like pretty bad strategy. But then I guess if you've already crossed the Rubicon in a clown car, what else is there to do but keep driving even as the body panels fall off.

6 weeks ago today, planes flew a few hundred people to El Salvador, where they’re being held at CECOT — a place from which Salvadoran officials brag no one is ever released — at US expense. Their continued detention there is our continued shame.

I think we should reinterpret “natural born citizen” to be two separate things, “natural born” and “citizen,” and “natural born” just means “not a foul creature begat of science and witchcraft.”

Glad Oklahoma got a refund for the hydroxychloroquine. It sure would be nice if the officials responsible for such an idiotic purchase could be held accountable.

If OpenAI had never launched ChatGPT they would have remained a curiosity for academics and motivated software developers to play with, instead now half the population thinks they're literally prophetic and oracular in their output and the other half thinks they're completely worthless.

This person I follow on the other place keeps a running thread of Trump administration shenanigans paired with episode titles in the style of It’s Always Sunny and I think “The Gang Files a Letter” might be the funniest one yet
