I wrote about how particularly ridiculous it is that Senate Democrats, led by Dick Durbin, think the priority should be repealing Section 230 and undermining the very open internet we need more than ever right now. www.techdirt.com/2025/02/21/w...

If you are a cis person please take 2 minutes to do this. Trans people with non-updated gender markers, historical gender marker changes, and X markers are terrified to travel right now; rolling back this policy would mean a lot.

Fuck. Off. Into. Space. Ideas are not the problem. Everyone has an idea. If you don't have an idea, GO DO SOMETHING ELSE. LITERALLY ANYTHING. IT'S OK! OTHER THINGS ARE ALSO GOOD!

I talked to developers about Microsoft's newly announced generative AI model, Muse, and its role in video games: "When we rely on this stuff we are implicitly empowering a class of people who own these tools and don’t give a fuck about how they reshape our lives." www.wired.com/story/xbox-m...

This is why I love encyclopedias (Wikipedia included) because I'll go to look up one thing and end up going down three or four adjacent rabbit holes along the way that I never would have otherwise. The hyper-fixation on AI that can tell you "the answer" or do your thinking for you is just...bad.

Sure, since you asked so nicely! 1. McConnell and the Senate GOP kept Judd Gregg from joining Obama’s Cabinet and blocked Tom Daschle — a powerful senator! — from being Obama’s HHS pick.

The Washpost, which is bleeding millions of dollars and shrinking its staff, accepted -- and then rejected -- a $115,000 ad that criticized Elon Musk. Anyway, here's the ad that the Post's business side didn't want its readers to see ⤵️ thehill.com/media/514849...

people are always baffled by how much some sonic fans miss sally as if she’s just some obscure character from an old cartoon and it’s like. well she was also the female lead of the longest running licensed video game comic ever. 24 years and almost 300 issues of that will net you some fans, perhaps

CBS is one of a dozen U.S. outlets that responded to authoritarianism by shifting coverage further right, which is why we're calling rounding up minorities in the middle of the night and dumping them in random countries they've never been to a "breakthrough"

The Partition of India displaced 20 million people, killed almost 2 million & created a refugee crisis whose effects are still in play over 70 years later, if you actually think it's a model for anything but massive catastrophe, you should not only not be employed here you should be in a padded cell

Tesla's stock is ridiculously overvalued, and even a modest consumer boycott could tank the company, which accounts for the majority of Elon Musk's wealth. The divestment movement weakened apartheid South Africa. Let's do that again. slate.com/business/202...

This story is wild. The Libertarian Party chair was allegedly caught embezzling money. When the committee began investigating, she resigned abruptly, took a job in the federal government & is asking for help from the FBI & the State Dept. The jokes. They write themselves. reason.com/2025/02/04/l...

One little known fact about my family is that my grandad predicted the Titanic would sink. He even went around warning everyone it was unsafe and was ignored and yelled at. Then when it actually happened just like he said it would nobody acknowledged him because he'd been evicted from the theatre

we're going to need independent, authoritative medical statisticians - probably having to compile data down to the level of individual hospitals in red states - to measure the rise in deaths as a result of this, because they're corrupting or removing the data at the federal level

Just a heads up that this isn’t an exaggeration and HB899 is terminating the Department of Education. It’s actually the title of the bill.

Tech media is leaps and bounds ahead of the traditional newspapers covering Trump. I highly recommend subscribing to @404media.co @techdirt.com.web.brid.gy (follow @mmasnick.bsky.social) @wired.com They are putting in the work and not dancing around what's really happening.

My first and definitely last time working with the Los Angeles Times. Editing out the most urgent point of an OpEd in the minutes before sending to press while then also assigning a title and image that suggest an argument entirely opposite to the author’s clear intent is pretty shitty.

Importantly it found just 10% of trans youth in the study had actually been allowed to access hormones, so all the terrible things you've heard about trans youth in the UK is under a system that isn't giving them health care
