“some also point to a recent paper from Cornell […] a pretty strong counterbalance to a report from MIT earlier this year” @katie0martin.ft.com I recommend reviewing that paper. It has no citations & I suspect it was an alibaba collab, maybe conflict of interest there

This incident is spreading through Chicago running circles. A 67 year old man, driving back from a long run with his friends, is pulled from the car and thrown to the ground by ICE (or BP?) agents because he did... something.

Great ep. Particularly liked the phlegmatic post-mortem from @alastaircampbell2.bsky.social and @rory-stewart.bsky.social. Startling assertiveness from Pompeo, a frontal blast from outside our filter bubble.

Fucksake, this #discourse AGAIN?
Yes this platform is smaller, very observant. But I don't spend all day being force fed Nazi slop or getting harassed by Nazis on a Nazi platform specifically engineered to amplify Nazis. It's not a hard decision, let's all just move on.

One of the biggest mistakes left-of-center pundits and influencers made was decamping to Bluesky. They made themselves irrelevant, shrunk their audiences, and dramatically lessened the positive impact they could have on our public debate at the precise time we needed it most.
