Trump says the Epstein Files are a Democrat hoax, but only Democrats were guilty of crimes with Epstein.
He says the DOJ should stop releasing files and everyone should stop talking about it, but also the DOJ should charge Democrats with crimes.
This is how you talk when you’re guilty as hell.

As we enter the New Year remember fear of making bad art is holding you back. Fear of people not liking your work is holding you back. Rejection is holding you back
You'll make bad art, you'll have people not like your work, and you'll be rejected. Moving past it is half the job of being a creative

In Yoshi's "Loves Me...?" minigame in Super Mario 64 DS, there is a 1 in 4,294,967,296 chance to get 32 consecutive "Loves Me Not" results in a row. While this is astronomically unlikely to have ever happened, a player receiving those results would likely become very distressed.

In the Mario Party series, an item's name was changed from "Cursed Dice Block" to "Creepy Dice Block". While it may appear to be an unnecessary change to make it more "family-friendly", it is actually an effective localization of the original Japanese name's double meaning.

This sentiment/argument was then repeated in the SCOTUS decision upholding state level bans on gender affirming care for youth, citing the NYT as its citation.
The nyt’s first story on the Cass report didn’t come out until the next day, when it portrayed the document, falsely, as part of a movement in Europe to restrict care. No such movement existed.

Now, an organization says they've prepared, have private clinics and financial aid ready for families that need them.

One of my greatest worries about climate was “countries will not trust each other enough to do this” but that’s actually become somewhat moot as renewables have become way preferable for many growing countries precisely /because/ they do not trust temperamental petrostates.

It's incredible to me how the mainstream press will be incredulous and skeptical when RFK Jr and other HHS officials push they're quackery around vaccines but suddenly become credulous when they go attack trans healthcare. Anti vax and anti trans beliefs are all the same quack pseudoscience.

At the HHS announcement yesterday announcing proposed rules to ban GAC, they said trans people are "at the root of the evils we face" and are "a hatred for nature as God designed it and for life as it was meant to be lived.”

Whoa, vindication for my hot take that my English teachers in high school who graded us on how many annotations we were making in our books doing the opposite of helping people understand what and how to cite things.
I had two teachers expect at least three written annotations per page.

I think this post nails the actual problem, for researchers at least—AI hallucinations would simply not be a problem in academic work if we’d not normalized citation-as-signaling rather than actual engagement—you can only cite a fake paper if you’re not in the habit of reading the papers you cite
Do not cite an academic paper unless you’ve read it

Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewlett casually confirming that 2D of Gorillaz is non-binary now is not what I expected from this album promotion cycle but y’know, yeah, cool, good for them!
![Albarn: That's the lovely thing about Gorillaz - it's still committed to everything existing in its own world. It's why l put that sound on my voice to separate me from [cartoon lead singer] 2-D. He…. Well, I actually don't think he's much of a he, he's more of a 'they', isn't he?
Hewlett: They're definitely more at home in that [non-binary] world. They're a sweetheart, they're open and accepting new information.
