"And remember, we are not descended from fearful men "Not from men who feared to write, to speak, to associate and to defend the causes that for the moment were unpopular "This is no time to keep silent..." —Edward R. Murrow (1954) Good Night and Good Luck youtu.be/vEvEmkMNYHY?...

Exactly my take on it, spot on.

Erm, so it’s possible then? Who new!

People producing documents full of AI hallucinations in serious contexts will only get worse as businesses embrace AI “productivity gains” in the era of cost cutting. They work faster but it’s really easy for people to skim over content they didn’t write when their employers are pushing for speed.

Message is clear to me but my suggestion on these matters is don’t use red (or blue) as people are very easily confused these days, seeing only what they want to see…

"When I was a kid, my mother told me I could be anyone I wanted to be, turns out 'Identity Theft' is a crime."

NEWARK, N.J. (AP) — Air traffic controllers for New Jersey's Newark airport lost radar again for 90 seconds Friday, FAA says.

"On Tyranny" is a #1 NYT bestseller again. I wish the moment were different. But I’m glad the book is useful. And grateful for all the kind words about putting the 20 lessons to work. snyder.substack.com/p/twenty-les...

A celestial whisper: a planetary nebula’s ring of ionized gas cradles a white dwarf star, as radiative shock waves etch delicate secrets, shimmering through a starry expanse.

In my English IV classes, we are studying 1984. It’s hard to pretend it’s fiction anymore. Reading about doublethink and the mutability of the past, and watching the principles of authoritarianism unfold in our society is terrifying. Make Orwell fiction again before it’s too late.

Absolutely insane. A billionaire just buying elections. We have to stop this.

So much for ceasefires. They never work unless the people directly impacted are involved directly and also agree.

Well said, @krassenstein.bsky.social

No one ever said they were creative.

Trump’s such a genius that he’s gotten us into a trade war. Congratulations, Republicans, you made this mess! apnews.com/article/trum...

This discussion about cutting Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid is all theoretical and full of big numbers. The impact for average Americans will be unreal even if you personally aren't drawing from those programs now. I tried to dive deeper in my latest: open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

Dicks Sporting Goods is one of the good guys! 🏆

At this rate I’m not too fussed if Twitter ever comes back online. TBH.

Seems very inefficient, wasteful. Just saying…

To quote FDR: "I ask you to judge me by the enemies I have made."

Public education is essential. The founding fathers knew it. Everyone knows it. So why don’t Trump and the GOP? We’re going to fight back and save public education. #DontDefundPublicSchools

Key takeaway from DOGE: There’s less government fraud/waste than expected.

Sure I get the idea of ‘efficiency’. But, I also find it hard to gloat over people losing their jobs too. However, is chopping a few park rangers really going to fix the economy? 🤔

BREAKING: Donald trump is actually doing something GREAT, promising to crack down on overdraft fees and to BLOCK medical debt from being listed on credit reports! WOW!!! LOL, just kidding. Actually, President Biden did all that stuff to help Americans, and trump wants to reverse it. Fucking idiot.

Bingo! 🎯🎯🎯
