Three months ago, Zohran Mamdani confronted Trump's “border czar” Tom Homan — as most Democrats simply twiddled their thumbs after Mahmoud Khalil was taken. "How many more New Yorkers will you detain?!" "Do you believe in the First Amendment?!" Today, Khalil is freed.

Juxtapose the manhandling of @padilla.senate.gov with the apathy he and his fellow Democrats have for thoroughly vetting Trump Judicial nominees. ballsandstrikes.org/nominations/...

its funny that "the dastardly progressives closed in person learning!" has becoming a rallying cry for the reactionary centrists since the pandemic when they used to be huge on closing schools and promoting MOOCs (remember those?) and other alternatives to traditional schools

If a colleague had the reliability rate of an LLM, they would be fired. If ordinary* software did, it would be uninstalled. LLMs require the chat format, because chat makes us party to the conversation. We insert the meaning ourselves - and hold it to a different standard. It's the mirror effect.

Joaders, as I stare down the barrel of 40, I'm seeing the results of mental stagnation on people my age and the long term results of it in people older than me. It's grim. People who fully stopped learning 20 years ago, and are just guttural, reactionary monsters now. AI is gonna turbocharge that.

we often say "the cruelty is the point" regarding the past few years of transphobic policy onslaught, and it is, but it's important to understand that the point of the cruelty is because they know they have lost. they're pulling every lever down for a hail mary, but people will keep transitioning.

There you have it. Popularism demands Dem leadership replace themselves. To deny the people's will would be electoral suicide

No American outlet would hesitate to describe them as pro-regime paramilitaries or an irregular militia and similar terms if this was happening anywhere else.

my kids asked who Daft Punk was, and i braced myself for a difficult explanation, but as i talked, i realized it's actually easy for a kid to understand two guys who pretend to be robots and dress in robot costumes and sing like robots. the hardest part to explain was the statement "they're french"

Came across this TikTok about "obscure books I read as a kid" and it was full of shit by Beverly Cleary, Judy Blume, R.L. Stine, and Louis Sachar, so I had to come here to be obnoxious about it because my inner book nerd 9 year old is like "are you fucking kidding me with that basic ass shit"

Earlier this week, I asked which tie knot you think looks better. Of course, you can wear whichever you like. But here's the social history behind both knots and why some people consider one better than the other. 🧵

AOC played ball and did everything Pelosi told her and was rewarded by being passed over for a 75-year-old who died four months later. There have now been four House votes this year where Dems lost by the margin of members who died in office. No one has more right to say this than her

What were they actually gonna do here? Ask every brown-enough person for their papers to go to the fucking baseball game? This is the most slam-dunk, anti-American thing I can think of. You need a passport to go to a Major League Baseball game now? Malpractice not to make a huge deal out of this.
