Oh there are some really good and fun answers in this. I have to ponder!
okay if you could magically become the greatest figure skater in the world for a day and deliver one banger performance that would live on forever, and if you could truly let your freak flag fly to choose ANY music you wanted, what are you skating to

On this day in 1923, the U.S. Supreme Court *unanimously* decided that people of South Asian descent could not be American citizens, and retroactively stripped citizenship from many who had already been naturalized. Years of organized persecution followed. www.saada.org/explore/publ...

I was at a DOJ conference in 2009 which became a multi-week scandal for allegedly serving $16 muffins.
(There were no $16 muffins, btw. The hotel billed a continental breakfast as "baked goods," which also included fresh fruit, coffee, tea, soft drinks, tax and tip.)

![Third, when asked specifically about whether she used Al and how she verified the accuracy of the case citations, Hersch finally admitted to the use of AI, though she neglected to do so in her initial show-cause response. We do not find it credible that Hersh used AI solely to "help organize and structure [her] arguments and to break up overly long paragraphs." Even when asked directly, Hersh did not explain the steps she took to verify the factual assertions in her brief, so the court concludes that she took none.
Fourth, when asked about inaccurate assertions of record facts, Hersh provided no explanation of how "publicly available sources" could have caused record facts to be inaccurate. She had two such factual misstatements in her reply brief.'
Fifth, when asked how the paraphrased summaries caused the inaccurate citations and quotations, Hersh continued to attribute the inaccurate quotations to "paraphrased summaries," which she claims to have "mistakenly believed... reflected the actual language of the cases." However, Hersh did not point this court to a single one of those summaries.
We have put tremendous effort into attempting to find where these summaries could be located and have been unable to find them. To the extent Hersh is referring to a case summary generated by Al as a "paraphrased summar[y]," her response is evasive, misleading, and sanctionable.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ssxnmhdtz6le6nxu7jfhglz6/bafkreigv7hawdkvyjbrlqdgyopxqma6jtzcouumhrqm2tnjeploxnyelbq@jpeg)

Since every poll shows that Republicans are going to take a beating in the midterms for many reasons, they are looking for every possible way to rig elections everywhere. bsky.app/profile/blue...
Greg Bluestein on SEB taking over elections in Fulton County: It's a five-member state election board, and the three-member majority is very MAGA, very pro-Trump. And two of those three have told me that this is this idea is very much on their radar.

Crying over the end of Horizon Zero Dawn is pretty vivid in my mind.
Just saw an ad that started out "your kids won't remember their best day of screen time" and while I of course broadly agree with the sentiment that you should do activities with your children, don't tell me i don't remember beating zelda a link to the past

I got a great question on my Ramadan thread: do Muslims also need to avoid consumption by proxy in videogames? Does consuming in-game food or drink break the fast? Basically: does your character have to go fast?
The answer is no, unless you happen to be playing Sonic the Hedgehog.

Normalize checking people‘s accounts before you reply to them. If they’re replying to you with incendiary shit and you see that they have no posts on their feed — block them. they WANT the engagement & your reaction. They want to sew Discord. They are, in fact, both a purposeful agitator and a plant
