If you have to put this much into convincing people that your bombing was successful

If a foreign power killed as many American children as RFK is about to, we’d bomb them into a flat sheet of glass

Beloit, WI revitalized its waterfront and chose this way to celebrate it: by bringing to life Georges Seurat's "A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte."

This is a Hall of Fame reader comment on a very reactionary op-ed about Zohran Mamdani's victory that was published in my local paper today.

Vaccination schedules on the CDC website have already started changing under RFK Jr. So we published a guide to the evidence-based vaccine recommendations in place *before* all 17 members of the advisory panel were abruptly dismissed by the new admin. www.scientificamerican.com/article/see-... 🧪

Three years without the protections of Roe v. Wade. Three years of cruelty. Three years of women denied care, criminalized for miscarriages, and forced to cross state lines in crisis. Three years of the GOP screaming “freedom” while snatching away our bodily autonomy. (1/2)

I miss him so much. M On the 17th anniversary of his death, I share some of his best work. - KCM

It’s wild that in the video DHS posted in an effort to make the beating of an innocent landscaper (with 3 marine sons) seem justified there’s a masked ice goon pointing a gun at a random car passing by and they don’t seem to think it matters at all

Color me unsurprised. These must just be the first three that made national news.

FAFO

This is great campaign messaging. No wonder the establishment is so shook.

I don't even go here, but Mamdani wins

A federal officer cannot be “doxxed.” The public has a right to know who is operating in our government, especially if they have the power to imprison someone.

Funny, that.

I hope someone slips those Marines the names and home addresses of the goons who brutalized their father. In the meantime, their GFM: www.gofundme.com/f/justice-fo...

Every 5 years, the US wants to bomb a country to “save its women,” while stripping away rights from women across the US

The American people were lied to about Vietnam, with tragic consequences. The American people were lied to about Iraq, with tragic consequences. The American people are being lied to again today. We cannot allow history to repeat itself.

If you vote for or endorse Andrew Cuomo you hate women

Cable news suddenly keeps mentioning “sleeper cells” in Iran. Heard it at least 3 times on CNN. Unbelievable 2003-style reporting malpractice, just spitballing ways of making Iran seem like a threat to Americans sitting at home watching tv

Amen. Always hated leaving parties.

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers. Reminder that Congress has the power to stop all of this. Where the hell are they? Hello?

Just working on my book and thinking about how LeVar Burton is probably the most beloved and unproblematic famous person alive in america today and I hope he’s doing well.

10/10 loved this book

“No Americans have ever applied… pick peaches in brutally hot Texas summers… if it weren’t for them there would be no peaches…” 🍑

ICE Illegally Tries To Impose Unlawful Rules on Congressional Visits

Two weeks you say?

Make sure to read and share Pascal’s sharp, important piece on what’s happening right now: It’s not getting the attention of other things but you can see a lot of forces are intent on wrecking devastation on Native voting rights. Tragic, but also crucial to see what tribes are doing in response:

Feel like this speaks to the idea that people who interact with LLMs a lot feel lonelier than people who do not.

Sigh

Yes. I am right. I am seeing how Chat GPT is ruining students critical thinking and writing skills in real time. It is not the future. It is a tool designed to render the populace helpless, to make people doubt their innate intelligence, and to foster overreliance on technology.

I expect that consumer-facing AI programs will continue to improve and they may become much more useful tools for everyday life in the future. But I think it was a disastrous mistake that today’s models were taught to be convincing before they were taught to be right.

The only reason Republicans have a reputation as "fiscal hawks" is that the press refuses to tell the public basic facts about what they do when they are in office.

the destruction of chattel slavery is one of the great accomplishments in our nation's history and the reason conservatives hate celebrating it is because doing so legitimizes the black counter-narrative of the united states

Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

UPDATE: “12 inmates indicted in Trousdale riot” It’s a Core Civic prison. They’ve failed every audit, death rates way up. We’re told there’s more to it, starving prisoners potentially at the root of it — yet every story only has CC or TDOC quoted. fox17.com/news/local/t...

"I asked ChatGPT" "I asked Grok" ok well I asked Gandalf and he said he has not passed through fire and death to bandy crooked words with a witless worm

Hell, birth control can be gender-affirming care and this latest bullshit decision is just setting up to kill BC access more easily.

I am a tourist in NYC but I have never been afraid taking the subway. it's hotter than hell's mouth on the platform but the cars have A/C and wifi and if you say "am i on the right train for the met?" a dozen people will tell you the right way to get there. They might debate it a bit

Currently facing this at work. Sorry not sorry i like writing die mad about it lmao

Mike Lee should resign (and be charged for inciting more violence against lawmakers).
