Anytime there’s a good election outcome or a not-bad court ruling or a tariff is dropped I have a half-second of gladness and then I turn around and assess the continuing destruction of everything else.

If Moderna is no longer bringing vaccine trials for Epstein-Barr virus (good evidence that EB causes Multiple Sclerosis), herpes, and shingles because of Trump appointees, I want prison time for those appointees.

This might be dooming millions to disease they don’t have to experience.

We want to catch each other’s eyes and smh mock all this but look, they’re doing it they’re in charge and it’s corrosive not risible. Also, I hate it.

Noem “closely monitored how her national profile compared with other officials. Top of her list was Homan, with whom she has been in a battle for power.

“Noem routinely berated staff if she saw Homan on TV and kept track of both their appearances to make sure she was on TV more than him”

He’s 52. She’s… younger. And married. Her visa is expired bc of her husband. Leads you to think she’s having to do this in trade for protection.

“Wilkinson has been w CBP for almost 25yrs; promoted in ‘21 to a supervisory role [] overseeing enforcement of immigration laws...” Yeah, reform that.

Watching the reaction to the end of GPT-4o, the last thing I’ll say before I shut down this account, is that SV built the most effective and _well-documented_ project to manipulate behavior at scale and when you point that out to ppl in tech, they cry it couldn’t possibly influence *their* behavior.

Ring has done this before. They partner with cops, get backlash, withdraw a bit, wait for it to calm down, and then go right back to working with cops. Don't believe this spin.

Shout out to the student journalists that have tirelessly covered their professors' ties to Epstein. My job would be much harder without them. See thread for some of my favorite recent student news pieces.

Just for reference, it is very, very possible to have a civil and productive conversation about AI and LLMs on Bluesky, and I do it every day, and people who say you can't do so are either lying to further an agenda or just have a massive skill issue. Feel free to point to this post if needed!

Hilarious people are amazed at how well Italians have taken to curling. Oh the country that centuries ago took and refined and then made bocce ball an obsession? Enjoying a game of millimeters requiring finesse and bursts of strength with plenty of downtime for coffee and gossip? Let’s investigate.

Fwiw, in my reporting of the 2024 election I found the belief that the mass deportation stuff was just for show *very prevalent* among Trump voters. Including among naturalised, non-white citizens.

An odd occasion where voters assumed the candidate was lying and so didn't let it change their vote

We need to quit it with shouting down crit of women like Vonn and Emerald Fennell as antifeminist and sexist. Will people use these openings to be misogynistic? Yes! Of course! But they would and do anyway! There’s no reason to hold back legit critique of a bad movie or say it’s off limits.

So @elienyc.bsky.social and @strictscrutiny.bsky.social have speculated that Alito may retire soon. I agree. Elie lays out the case here—it'd be odd to release a memoir in October if he's (a) still serving and (b) unable to promote it because he's hearing arguments. www.thenation.com/article/poli...
Is Samuel Alito Preparing to Disrobe?
In this installment of Elie v. US, our justice correspondent explores the week’s big legal news, including a possible Alito retirement. Also, the anti-trans mob’s latest target: tight clothing.

We don’t have to project “wins” onto the enemy. They are not your secret long-suffering ally. This staffer works for Bondi—knowingly, willingly—and is rolling her eyes at nothing in particular, and maybe the gall of them having to be questioned or even there at all.
You gotta admit, the staffers in the background keeping it real are the best part.

“Be a neighbor, not a Nazi” proved too much for MAGA to overcome in yet another American city.

This is unquestionably a massive defeat for the regime.

Never forget: Trump’s authoritarian desires are limitless. But his ability to impose them on the country is not.

The line on this keeps getting sharper. It’s like the Mag7 stocks keeping the whole market booming — at some point things this narrow holding so much burden will buckle.
