Hey look, it’s The Atlantic continuing to marginalize people who don’t want to get infected repeatedly with COVID. You know, this patronizing story pairs well with new reporting about long-term damage from multiple COVID infections. www.theatlantic.com/health/archi...

The point of Senator Booker's filibuster is to be INSPIRED by this man to go find YOUR ROLE, not to wait for them to go save us now. That is not this assignment. Thread of places to go to get started. More coming out of LiST this Thursday.

Booker: "I confess that I have been imperfect. I confess that I've been inadequate to the moment. I've confess that the Democratic Party has made terrible mistakes that gave a lane to this demagogue. I confess we all must look in the mirror and say 'we will do better.'"

every little bit of contribution to or normalization of fascism helps fascism. “i’m on substack because that’s where the network is.” every little bit helps! “i’m on x because that’s where my followers are.” every little bit helps!

the bummer of all of this is that it is happening to everyone who makes anything creative all at once across hundreds of LLMs and companies so it feels very difficult to fight back in any meaningful way www.404media.co/hayao-miyaza...

the speed at which these guys have broken everything has given a lot of folks who should know better the impression that they are an unstoppable force and the only option is to negotiate the terms of surrender just because the clown car goes very fast does not mean it isn’t full of clowns

NOTUS is not a site I trust generally, and I should have stuck to my gut on that yesterday. I do not agree with many of McBride’s tactics, but it’s clear her quote was badly manipulated to present its exact opposite. This was bad journalism, not a representative selling us out.

So proud to contribute to the #IGiveARod fundraiser every year. This is a new single year record and the running total since 2019 is now over half a million dollars. It helps classrooms across Alaska, as well as nonprofits doing great work. The #UglyDogs community is the best.

Public comment is now open for passport gender marker changes. You can go here to go to each of the three proposed passport rules, and submit comment. My suggestion: be unique, argue for trans-inclusive policies, against the constitutionality of the changes, etc. www.reddit.com/r/Passports/...
