“…a kind of metacognitive mirage”
“When participants used ChatGPT to draft essays, brain scans revealed a 47% drop in neural connectivity across regions associated with memory, language, & critical reasoning.
Their brains worked less, but they felt just as engaged—a kind of metacognitive mirage.”🧪

It’s weird. You’re drinking your first cup of coffee, getting ready for breakfast, when all of a sudden your notifications blow up, so you throw some clothes on, grab your PPE, and run off to chase trouble with neighbors.
My latest is a love letter to Chicago. "I see you stumbling through the stubborn, awkward rhythm of showing up, again and again. I see you fighting alongside people who sometimes frustrate and confuse you, and defending neighbors you may have never met, because you know they’re all your people."
In Chicago, We Run Toward Danger Together
"Faced with unrelenting state violence, Chicagoans have refused to be cowed," says Mariame Kaba.

If MLK were alive today where would he be? If RFK were alive today where would he be? Where are our leaders? 7-8 million marched in the streets in Oct, tens of millions went to the polls on Tuesday, citizens in the streets in Chicago… where are the leaders? Right now this minute, where are they?
Chicago PD arrested several individuals on behalf of ICE after conducting a raid on an entire city block in the Little Village neighborhood. During the arrest, one of the detained neighbors was visibly choked by CPD officers and repeatedly informed them that he was unable to breathe

Federal agents’ use of force amid an aggressive deportation campaign in Chicago “shocks the conscience,” the Trump administration’s arguments “lack credibility,” and a top Border Patrol official lied while trying to justify the use of tear gas, a judge found Thursday. - @jonseidel.bsky.social

California voters just said F*CK NO to Trump’s authoritarian power grab!
Prop 50 is more than a ballot measure, it’s a blueprint for how we defend democracy. It proves that when voters are given the chance to stand up and fight back, they do — by huge margins and despite relentless intimidation.
