gallup’s explanation for no longer tracking presidential approval ratings is mission compliance—and that should be understood to mean it did the work to boost its brand authority, and it’s no longer worth the trouble. why it is not worth the trouble now is not actually explained in any coherent way.
so they’re evolving because they’re realigning and realigning because they’re evolving. this is literally a loop.

I’m not sure how the mainstream media has been covering epstein but youtuber coffeezilla has been covering it and I think that’s going to have a bigger impact on young men and other forces than anything the nyt has to say

With the decimation of education and specifically higher education pipelines and professions in the US, folks should know one of the known objectives in AI field is to appear to have produced 'AI [extremely highly educated + trained worker]' whether that be doctor, scientist, engineer, etc.
My doomer-worry about AI is not that the LLMs become omnipotent and take over the world but that the wealthy and powerful use it as a means to consolidate power and marginalize or lay off skilled workers and also everything about our technological and political and social life gets worse

In the 1970s more than an estimated 70k Native women & women of color were forcibly sterilized. 1/4 of Native women of child-bearing age were sterilized. A proposed law in New Mexico could make the state the first to acknowledge & study this awful history.

Pam Bondi wants you to know that she'd let all the rich men rape your kids so long as it benefits her stock portfolio
Bondi crashes out over Epstein: "The Dow is over 50,000 dollars! I don't know why you're laughing. You're a great stock trader as I hear, Raskin. The Dow is over 50,000 right now. The S&P at almost 7,000, and the Nasdaq smashing records. That's what we should be talking about."

all I’ll add is Bondi, as Florida AG, used “fighting sex trafficking” to elevate herself—empowering cops at the expense of survivors. long before Trump she was like this

i am increasingly bothered by terms like "showdown" or "face-off" or "clash" when used to describe corrupt and fascist power coming up against resistance because there's an implied symmetry that does not exist.

an object lesson about how if you reject misogyny, you can keep yourself out of lots of bad situations!
Hey, my name is in the Epstein files! I've told the story before, but should probably re-up.
TLDR: never met the guy, never took (or asked for) any money from him, never visited the island. I was invited to the island, and said no.
It's not that hard to just say no.
