Kate also is doing something I mentioned earlier on my piece on newstubing and the risks of independent journalism. The goal of a journalist is not to make you happy, it is to make you think hard about important things. If we are doing opinion stories, you should not always agree with us

Hear me out, what if AI is a good thing for political discourse. Anytime your crazy uncle starts ranting, have him “talk to grok about that”. Get it out of his system and he comes back and talks about family stuff.

Sally and David always agreed that the first rule of parenting is unconditional love. So when their then-21-year-old daughter told them she was trans, there was no question they would figure out how to support her. But that didn’t make it easy.

I’ve lived through this before. While I’m sure there’s a long future ahead for AI and the value created, this is truly an irrational bubble that will have to deflate at some point.
NVIDIA, $NVDA, marketcap equals 16% of the US GDP.
It has a larger market cap than all the banks in US and Canada combined.

centrists will tell you to your face that we all need to abandon identity issues, and focus on kitchen table issues instead and yet when a leftist candidate runs a generational campaign based on kitchen table issues, it's the centrists weaponizing identity politics to smear the leftist.

We are one of our darkest days. I cannot for the life of me understand how this gets the FCC chair to threaten ABC's licenses while quietly ignoring a Fox anchor saying that homeless people should be killed. EVERYTHING people feared is coming true.
1. Just so we’re clear, this is the clip that got Jimmy Kimmel’s show shelved by ABC.
If I’m missing any other clips please let me know.

RFK Jr. rolled out that old chestnut again about how healthy Americans were in the 60’s, so here’s a fact check.
In 1965:
-42% of American adults smoked; it’s 11% now.
-The infant morality rate was 24.7/1000; it’s 5.6/1000 now.
-Overall life expectancy was 70 years; it's about 77 years now.
