I'm at an event with people from all across the country. I was casually chatting with a guy while we were waiting to be served at the bar. I asked him where he was from and he said New York. I told him I was from Oakland.
"Oh, so you're corn-fed!" He eagerly replied.

The ICE agent who shot Marimar Martinez in Chicago tried to goad her out of her car.
He said “do something b*tch” and shot her 5 times.
The ICE agent who shot Nicole Renee Good did the same thing. Stood right in front of her vehicle and yelled “f*cking bitch”.
They hate women & it shows.

"Get the principals on camera" is such a telling phrase here, because it tells us that for Weiss there's no world in which the victims of these horrific actions can actually be seen as the subjects of the story: They're background noise, and the people who matter are the ones sending them.
Weiss concluded: “We need to be able to make every effort to get the principals on the record and on camera. To me, our viewers come first, not a listing schedule or anything else. And that is my North Star, and I hope it's the North Star of every person in this newsroom.”

As I sit in my office, working (and skeeting) while the rest of my division is at the holiday party, I have a hot take: Scrooge was right. Who wants to play with a bunch of Dickensian youths when he could be enjoying time to himself?

I'm not (since my 20s) in the habit of sharing screenshots of other people's dating profiles. But this leap of logic is incredible.

I participated in an internal beta test of my employer's Gen AI platform. I'm a major AI skeptic but I posed it three questions that felt like they were reasonable use cases. I'm preparing a strongly worded email as a result of those prompts!

This may explain why I encountered a recipe for beef stew that included 1.5lbs of potatoes, yet only 6 teaspoons of liquid, total.
NEW: AI “recipe slop” is overrunning search and social. Food creators say Google’s AI Overviews and glossy fake food pics are drowning out real, tested recipes — collapsing traffic and setting home cooks up for disaster, especially this Thanksgiving.

Something I haven't seen talked about yet: Prop 30 is up ~64 to 36. Harris won CA at ~58 to 38, in 2024. There are some negative things you can infer about the electorate from this, but also: that is a pretty dramatic swing, particularly since it's not like gerrymandering is universally popular.

Jury nullification is good and it's a good sign for America's path out of authoritarianism that juries are recognizing their power to nullify.

For a long time, I believed that incremental change was possible, and the right approach. It's now clear that whether possible or correct, it didn't happen, and bigger change is needed. I think many people already knew that and I was in denial/wrong.

As with Charlie Kirk, Republicans are fiercely loyal to the general idea of Donald Trump but will furiously refuse to grapple with anything specific that he actually says or does.
I didn't see the tweet. I didn't hear the comment. I didn't watch the speech.
Republicans have been feigning ignorance about their mad king for eight years now.

Still thinking about last year when I saw a psychiatrist about my anxiety, and the bulk of the session was taken up by him lecturing me about how anxiety is really bad for your health so it's important for me not to be anxious.
