Imagine how cool it would be for the SEC to be, as it should be, a wholly independent agency that would actually look into what was no doubt MASSIVE insider trading by Trump favorites today.

It's wrong to send Americans to an overseas megaprison. It's wrong to send non-Americans to an oversea megaprison. It's wrong whether they committed a crime or not. It's wrong whether they have been sentenced for a crime or not. Cruel and unusual punishment is wrong. Concentration camps are wrong.

it’s weird that we’re staring down the second unprecedented economic catastrophe in five years and instead of a novel coronavirus that will go on to kill millions of people this one is just “no one was willing to tell him no”

Having my book stolen by Meta to train their large language models doesn't feel great. But it does present me with another opportunity to declare how much, and how vehemently, I hate everything that Big AI's snake-oil peddling hypemen stand for. www.irishexaminer.com/lifestyle-co...

I love this story by Keith Uhlig, and particularly the ending: "I think for a lot of us LGBT people, the message resonates," Mountain said. "Maybe people tell you you can't do something, but you can go ahead and do it anyway.""

This is real, and it's awful, and if ever you weren't sure that AI brainrot slop is both metaphorically and now literally a tool of the fascists -- welp. There it is. So! Don't use gen-AI. Not for anything. Not even as a joke.

Dear fellow academics, hope today's hilarious news regarding mind boggling incompetence of the white male 'meritocracy' has permanently cured your imposter syndrome. You all know that you've never been nor will ever be THAT BAD at your job.

The HHS rule banning trans care from many ACA plans is open for public comment now. Only 3 comments so far. Embarrassing how the media is completely ignoring this. There's likely over 200,000 trans people on ACA plans (1% of 24 million) www.federalregister.gov/documents/20...

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House. We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication. They own what happens next.
