Google at its peak was basically the best information retrieval system in human history and they and every competitor decided going from there to “you didn’t want answers you wanted half-assed auto-complete 80%-wrong hallucinations” in a few years was the right idea

When the GOP calls every social safety net measure “socialism,” votes like this matter in a policy context.
House Minority Leader Jeffries voting with the GOP in favor of this resolution is showing his ultra-wealthy donors exactly who he fights for.
It’s not the people.

Prison guards rushing to take jobs with ICE. Almost like all of this is connected. I wonder which people have been making this case for a few decades.

The views of the average pro-Palestinian student broadly match what the academic literature says, what international courts say, what the relavant UN officials & orgs say and what the relevant NGOs say. It is views of Clinton and her peers in Western capitals which are largely divorced from reality.
What Hillary is saying here is a conspiracy theory and not even a tame, silly one, but a whopper. A more balefully consequential and widespread one than e.g. Trump complaining that the media lied about his crowds being big.

yeah why might it be harder for someone to break 50% in a three-way race versus a two-way race. obviously it has something to do with ideology.

I’m a third gen Dodger fan from East L.A. and I understand why people in the place where I grew up have been feeling weary of the team, especially in light of the history of Chavez Ravine
At the end of the day, I am on Team East L.A.
They better not shake his fucking hand

This ICE removal operated by Omni Air International is now making its second stop, in Sri Lanka. So far, migrants onboard have spent 34 hours in handcuffs, leg irons and a waist chain. There may be more stops.
Omni and its parent company were purchased in April by private equity firm Stonepeak.

Tonight at band practice @sam-morrison.bsky.social heard a drummer in another room playing the groove from Untitled (How Does It Feel) and just immediately played the keyboard part straight off the dome. He didn't even know D'Angelo had died. The man's music is permanently in our shared ether.

I’m told ICE attacked us—despite us being off the street, courtesy of the state police—to create a spectacle because Kristi Noem was present today. Here’s some footage of her and her team on the roof of Broadview. Everything is content creation to these fascists.

Today's executive order calling for "a standing National Guard quick reaction force that shall be resourced, trained, and available for rapid nationwide deployment" seems like a setup for a 100% Trump-controlled military force to be used against domestic enemies.
