I'm cautiously more optimistic than Filipe but the "It couldn't happen here' energy among Dem party elites is startlingly strong.

There's this potentially weird dystopian cyberpunk future where the Internet Archive loses all its copyright battles while OpenAI wins all of theirs, and our only record of the history of the Internet-that-was is locked up inside the unreliable narration of obsolete large language models.

One of the reasons I decided I was never going to do a venture funded startup again is because once you take VC your choices about the future of your company stop being your own in a really profound way, and every decision from then on has to start with what will make the VC investment pay out.

It's disturbing seeing some medical and public health professionals trying to normalize RFK by saying "we have to meet him halfway." NOPE. RFK is a charlatan who has deliberately spread disinformation that has killed people. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back.

„ all of the chatter about the diverse new coalition supporting Trump, his actual support didn’t look that different from four years ago. Then, about 82 percent of his voters were White. This year, about 81 percent were“

I am seeing more and more opinions bubbling up about how throwing trans people to the wolves would be a winning strategy for Democrats, and I just want to quickly say: Fuck off with that absolute dog shit.

The threat of widespread noncitizen voting isn’t real. It’s a conspiracy theory with racist roots, the manifestation of a well-funded conservative activist, the fever dream of thousands of volunteers who meet on zoom. And it’s already doing real harm. www.nbcnews.com/politics/202...

"...A cut of that size would mean that the typical monthly benefit check of $1,907 in 2024 would be reduced by $629 per month, leaving recipients with average payments of $1,278." TRUMP WANTS TO CUT SOCIAL SECURITY should be in every Dems' ad. www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-s...

Honestly, as a lifelong Brooklynite, I must say it would be cool if we had an actual democracy instead of the electoral college and campaigns had to worship and respect urban culture a bit more but wtf do I know.

I'm not going to repost Megyn Kelly's toxic "why are Black women celebrating why they went to HBCUs" tweet, bc ... why? I'll just repost this instead. In case anyone had to wonder why HBCUs had to exist in the first place. And should be celebrated for what they opposed.

The NYT's motto should be "History Began This Morning," who else but a bunch of willfully ignorant click-chasers could forget that "Repeal and Replace" was the mantra for 15 years with the GOP, except they never came up with a replacement plan. Dogs with phantom tennis balls are harder to fool.

Win the election and pack the court, or face a generation of Federalist Society judges "discovering" that the way this country has run for nearly a century is entirely unconstitutional. Those are the two choices. There aren't others.

i maintain that trump v. united states has all the makings of the worst scotus decision since dred scott and for many of the same reasons: roberts, like taney before him, used the case to prosecute his ideological vision with no regard to the law or the constitution.

The reason why the weirdness messaging has staying power is that Republicans keep reacting to it by doing and saying even weirder shit. They simply cannot talk normally or neutrally about women and minorities.

A point about the real meaning of manhood: Look at how Mark Kelly has cared for his wife through years of recovery after she was shot. If that had happened to one of Trump's wives? You know that in a week he would have tossed her in an institution and divorced her. Tell me who the real man is.
