I’m sorry, but it is disgraceful to be an academic who uses this technology to conduct research. It should be prohibited in all of our scholarly institutions, including universities and journals.

They're not waiting on the Supreme Court to tell them they can ignore the clear, plain text of the 14th Amendment that everyone born in the US is a birthright citizenship. They are trying to erase the citizenship of anyone with skin darker than Stephen Miller's through administrative action alone.
“They’re denying that any of her birth certificates, which are from Laurel, Maryland, her records of immunization, medical records — they’re denying the authenticity of them. It is something I’ve never encountered.” www.huffpost.com/entry/us-cit...
Trump Administration Says Maryland Woman's Birth Certificate Is Fake In Dystopian Move

One is the normie lib in me, sure. Two is my vulgar materialist side. I have to think those things can be reconciled, though. We’ll need a politics of shaming if we are going to get justice for this admin’s crimes. I think we can also present the materialist case for a better world with grace.

Every day, two thoughts go through my mind about the present government. One, the pervasive debasement of politics and political symbols is galling. The lack of any decency shocks me always. Two, maybe they needed to be debased, as our politics, for all its courtesies, was often debasing.

He strikes me as someone that has never once enjoyed even a book, movie, or piece of music. He seems devoid of the capacity for joy, aside from some satisfaction when he can put someone else down.

/2 Has Trump ever felt joy? Has he ever had a truly happy day? Does he have any fond memories at all? Has he ever experienced anything closer to contentment than gloating, or smugness, or fleeting satisfaction in demeaning others?

We can DEFINITELY enjoy the fact that Trump is miserable. He’s President and he’s miserable. He’s got supreme power and he’s miserable. He’s insecure, resentful, consumed by bitterness and rage and entitlement, incapable of being fulfilled.

I guess it’s possible to enjoy the disappointment and humiliation of Trump supporters even as we plunge over the edge of the chasm.

America has deindustrialized so much they can't even manufacture consent
I still can't believe they're trying to make a war happen out of thin air. Not just their abrogation of Congress's role in formally declaring a war -- that's been a slippery slope for decades -- but their total unwillingness even to go through the motions of drumming up public support.

The idea that enhancing surveillance in academic buildings will protect students from mass shootings is absolutely fucking preposterous. What it will increase is the criminalization of our students. Reject it!!!

Using genAI for concept art is so fucking stupid because like... that's where you get the cool shit. Thats the blue sky phase where artists make pieces of art that will be seen by a teenager later and change their life forever. Why would you want to start from mediocre. Why would you do that.

Hello friends, I recently lost my health insurance + benefits & am currently looking at a bill of over $16,000 for which I cannot pay. This would not necessarily be an issue if I were not visually impaired and currently out of full time work, but I am humbly asking for assistance now. Any bit helps.

This is my friend's cat. Its name is Cookie Swirl, and it disappeared in the American section of Charlotte airport on 11/10. We're asking for your help. She doesn't have any other socials, so if you can post it widely to see if anyone knows where it is. It's a little thing, but matters a lot to her.
