Understates # of people. Marched from NYPL to 26th St in that crowd. Took abt 45 mins. Hung out for a bit. Then walked back uptown a block over. When I got back to NYPL there were still people joining the march. Just as crowded. So that many people marching south continuously for 1.5 hrs.

Educators and parents need to help young people learn to not anthropomorphize chatbots. These kinds of stories explain the possible psychological implications of doing so. But, there are also important *legal* reasons not to anthropomorphize chatbots.
Don’t think I’ve ever muttered the words “fuck me sideways” quite so much reading a story as this one.

I hope there are a lot of emails with exactly this tone being fired off around Washington, D.C. this morning.
An EEOC admin. judge sent a fiery all-department email this AM alleging:
1. Trump's exec orders & instructions to target private citizens with them are illegal.
2. the judge had sent an earlier email with a similar tone yesterday that later vanished from their sent folder & colleagues' inboxes.
