Meta has "no plans to end fact-checking in the EU", the company clarified and "will review its EU content moderation obligations before making changes" www.politico.eu/article/mark...
Zuck goes full Musk, dumps Facebook fact-checking program
Meta will replace it with so-called community notes like on the X platform. The content moderation changes won’t be rolled out in the EU for now.

My father would womanize, he would start land wars with Denmark. He would make outrageous claims like claiming ownership of Greenland. Sometimes he would refer to the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of America.

Check the prediabetes rates among our generation. So many cheap sugary drinks. Followed by unlimited mimosas on the weekends for brunch.
We dressed up in our finest business casual, and left the club sweaty. We used to have to bring our own towel because we danced all night long and drinks were cheap and colorful and had fun names like incredible hulk. And camera phones sucked so people brought actual digital cameras into the club

An excellent, sobering letter that emphasizes the broken nature of Congress, which IMHO is an existential threat to the USA.

I am once again asking writers to engage with how the campaign actually operated, and not just the right-wing fantasy of the election cycle.
Kamala Harris and the Dems focused on bread and butter issues: health care, the economy, worker rights. Every anti-immigrant or anti-LGBTQ ad was by the GOP.

Most Americans agree racism and sexism are problems. Yet identity politics were not salient enough to swing the election, writes Conor Friedersdorf. “If Democrats renounce identitarian stereotyping and discrimination,” their coalition and America will benefit:

Highly competitive sounds great on a school brochure but the net result may be more black students being squeezed out of college enrollment altogether. The other interesting development will probably be on the graduate school level. Lots of PWI grad schools building pipeline partnerships with HBCUs

In 1998 when the UC system struck race as a category of consideration the black population at Berkeley and UCLA plummeted by 40%. They remain roughly half of what they were prior to that decision. This decline did not only reflect fewer black students being admitted but fewer even applying.
