Whatever you do, please don’t stop reading.
Read for joy. Read for education. Read for resistance. Read banned books. Read books by marginalized authors. Read about experiences that differ from your own.
Just. Keep. Reading.

“You already have too many books.”
“You have stacks of unread books at home.”
“You don’t have space for more books.”
First of all, fuck your negativity. If you want a book and don’t want to get from the library or in digital and you can afford it, buy that book. Buy six. Be happy.

ICE just arrested Brad Lander, the NYC Comptroller and one of the leading candidates for Mayor, without grounds.
He was conducting routine immigration court work, escorting individuals from hearings.
He asked ICE for their warrant - well within his legal rights.
This is political intimidation.

Whoa! NYC mayoral candidate and current city Comptroller Brad Lander seemingly arrested at the NYC immigration court while attending to escort someone attending their hearing.
Lander just got detained by federal agents as he tried to escort a man out of the courtroom. Lander was taken in an elevator with masked agents, along with one member of his NYPD security detail.

They’re here to liberate this city from…the people we democratically elected to run our city and state? I would say make it make sense, but that’s too big of an ask for fascist Barbie.
Kristi Noem: "We are not going away. We are staying here to liberate the city from the socialists and the burdensome leadership that this governor and that this mayor have placed on this country and what they have tried to insert into the city."
Sen. Alex Padilla is then forcibly removed!

Facebook really bungled every single thing related to China and I am SO HYPED to get to the part of the book that discusses Mark Zuckerberg's Smog Jog. Potentially one of the greatest staged photos ever taken.

it's jolting how little AI skepticism has reached the general public. i've had many acquaintances ask whether i use AI for research and seem shocked when i tell them it's completely useless for that purpose. my wife recently told her colleagues about hallucinations and it was news to all of them.

My April reading wrap-up is a little out of sorts. I’m in the middle of a lot of books right now, and I finished up two books this month — Americanah and Careless People — that were both 5 stars.

Maybe it’s because I took the whole gummy before listening to Careless People on audiobook, but this book is laugh out loud funny. Imagine your friend’s special interest is “global policy at Facebook” and they read you their manifestos they wrote???

Listening to @nikiesq.bsky.social’s husband explain the Super Bowl pass interference flag plays in terms of parking tickets (you found a great spot but you got a ticket”), and thumbs up/down on each play to his wife’s non-football friends. Bless him.
