I'm happy that Mamdani won. But I won't let that get in the way of my celebrating Cuomo losing.

The most important thing to remember about Bad Bunny performing at the Super Bowl is that Puerto Rico is a colony whose residents are US citizens and pay taxes but don't get to vote for the president, have no voting representation in Congress,

I have not seen one Spirit Halloween but plenty of empty properties... spooky but not the fun seasonal kind!

More workers were abducted today than pretty much any other single day over the course of the months-long federal occupation of Los Angeles.

We are still under siege. There is no other choice but to organize and fight back. Look out for one another and defend your neighbors!

I heard the trumpets of the rapture today (listened to the first 8 seconds of Hips Don’t Lie).

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...
Hundreds of Alligator Alcatraz detainees drop off the grid after leaving site
As of the end of August, the whereabouts of two-thirds of more than 1,800 men detained at Alligator Alcatraz during the month of July could not be determined by the Miami Herald.

Yes, this. You aren’t changing minds, you are merely participating in engagement farming which benefits them more than it does you.

It also sends an unfortunate message that their ideas are worth treating with *respect* and therefore socially *acceptable*. It suggests they offer a *legitimate* pov.
all i know is that normalizing debate with fascists has only facilitated the rise of fascism.

Do it.

Search your name.

Take their money.

It’s yours anyway.
Just a reminder to check for your name in this list of books that OpenAI trained from. If your name is there, they probably owe you several thousand dollars.

OpenAI cried that if everyone eligible author files, the company will go bankrupt, so I'm alerting every author I have ever spoken to.

The President of the United States is threatening to go to war with an American city.

This is not a joke. This is not normal.

Donald Trump isn't a strongman, he's a scared man. Illinois won’t be intimidated by a wannabe dictator.

heard google is measuring the success of AI overview partially based on whether people click on any links on the search page after querying so i’ve been clicking links even if i don’t need to, to show my displeasure.
I really hate AI overview. I always catch myself reading it before I'm like NO.

I will remind folks those images of Nazi book burnings aren't burning just any books. They're burning the library of Magnus Hirschfeld; a gay, Jewish doctor who created an institute dedicated to LGBTQ sex education and healthcare. And a man who pioneered gender affirming care surgeries.

Yes. But before we get to the primary process we should be thinking about who we don’t want to *end up* with. The way you end up with someone rather than choose is having “mean posts” stick in peoples minds and not “hates homeless people, doesn’t care about trans people”
hi Paul! Huge fan.

Understood, I guess I'm asking you to give others some grace. If people are feeling hopeful and that is leading them to be overly eager and frankly annoying... there is going to be a whole primary process and that is if we even still have a democracy. Eye on the ball and all that
