The comments on this video on TikTok are so interesting to me because it is a lot of people saying that we can’t do this because what if Republicans try it to or what if Republicans reverse it. “We have to change the court the traditional way.”

In federal court in Greenbelt, MD, where security is noticeably stepped up, perhaps b/ Kilmar Abrego Garcia is present in person. This is the first time he's appeared before Judge Xinis across the two cases of his she's heard starting in March b/ he's no longer detained by ICE or El Salvador.

yeah, I grew up and starting parenting in those decades. While I generally sympathize with young low end middle class white people I have have a hard time comprehending their expectations especially re the economic rationale for not having kids. You figure it out.

humans as the gatekeeper for AI (and pick your setting) is doomed to failure, there's a great (and short) paper out there called The Limits of Clinician Vigilance as an AI Safety Bulwark and here's one of the authors on a podcast.

Closing out my year with a journal editor shocker 🧵

Checking new manuscripts today I reviewed a paper attributing 2 papers to me I did not write. A daft thing for an author to do of course. But intrigued I web searched up one of the titles and that's when it got real weird...

I'm remembering the first time my mom (divorced secretary) got a credit card
I love to be told that feminism has failed women by women whose careers and ability to flourish in public life, let alone have a credit card, only exist because of feminism

I still don't think there's a single flag all these yahoo's can rally under once Trump is gone. Deep down they hate each other as much as they hate everyone else.

He is a liar. The demon is a liar. He will lie to confuse us. But he will also mix lies with the truth to attack us. The attack is psychological, Damien, and powerful. So don't listen to him. Remember that - do not listen.

yeah, I was there for the oil shocks and stagflation and the Volcker recession. Maybe Krugman is on to something with his thoughts about inclusion and fairness. Granted I was young at the time but in those days I think it's fair to say there was more of a "we're all in this together" feeling.
I’m sorry but you just cannot explain this. You can’t. It can’t be done. It defies comprehension.

luckily I learned to separate the art from the artist a long time ago so I don't feel weird at all about those 46.5 fantasy points from last night, it's for the championship after all

The Bluesky Book Club got this book on my TBR list and it was fantastic. The movie looks like a ton of fun! 🐏

Property and Casualty Insurance is one market the government should not participate in. Regulate sure. Who believes that you have a right to live risk free in a fire zone in the same way we think you have a right to good healthcare even if you have some bad habits?

honestly, if i were trying to design a place for the political opposition to take a stand against trump, i couldn't have done better than abrego garcia. by trying to destroy basic constitutional protections, it was *trump* who made this a dispute over due process and the Constitution.
