Another thing: the people lining up to say “but he was nice to *me*” are to a person white guys in powerful positions. I got news for you: he did not respect your ideas, he respected your power and enjoyed proximity to it. Of course he was nice to you.

This is simply untenable. There is no way forward with media and political classes captured by the right. Every time someone commits a crime you have to pray it's not an undesirable or it's purge time, then when it turns out to be themselves again they just shrug and wait for the next one.

Your legacy is the way you made people feel. Your words and actions and rhetoric.
It’s how you’ll be remembered. It’s your lasting impact on others.
We should be helpers in this world, not only because it’s right and good and just, but because it is the legacy we leave for others.

"Political violence" is a term that exists to suggest a moral distinction between "violence against politicians" and "violence by politicians" - so that one can be condemned while the other can be normalized. Obviously, no such distinction exists in reality: violence is violence.

Feels like Silicon Valley has truly gone insane and should go back to making simpler stuff: wooden cuckoo clocks, novelty back scratchers. And for their own sake, have most of their wealth seized. What an opportunity for them to learn! A cuckoo clock, delightful.

Donald Trump incited a violent coup to overthrow the 2020 election and hold onto power. It will never be ok that he was not held accountable, including banning him from ever again holding public office.

I’ve seen so many people spreading the misinformation that PBS is shut down or is shutting down.
The Corporation for Public Broadcasting has been shut down and PBS has been defunded.
HOWEVER!!! PBS still exists. It is more important now than ever that you donate to PBS if you can.

My 80-year-old aunt told me she "got tired of streaming" and is borrowing DVDs from her library again.
So I checked it out and they have an amazing selection. Blu-rays too, from Criterion, Kino Lorber and other boutique labels.

A lot has changed since Zelensky’s last Oval Office visit — and no, I’m not talking about the golden decor. It’s the unity: EU leaders stand firm that Ukraine’s security is Europe’s and the world’s security. Meanwhile, Ukraine just tested a 3,000 km missile (hello Russia, we see you!)

This is a great summation about what LLMs ("AI") actually does, which is actually pretty amazing (except for the problematic stealing of all the IP and data and massive use of energy and water), but maybe not actually very useful, so I suppose it's obfuscated into something else to interest.

Fascism is here. We are not “getting closer” or “in danger of.”
This matters because it frames our discussion: We aren’t trying to prevent it, we’re trying to defeat it. It’s not taking over our institutions, it’s taken them over.
Otherwise, we’re always behind, fighting a past we’ve already lost.
