My colleague points out here that possibly one in seven requests to our library now may be assisted by LLMs.
When those point to fictional documents, that's a huge staff time drain. There's often no quick way to check if an undigitized primary source doc exists beyond physically pulling some boxes.

I recently saw a comment that basically said "Maga gain comfort from being lied to" and I'm not sure how you're meant to counter that.
Most discussions about “misinformation” treat the problem as if people simply don’t have good enough critical-thinking skills. It sounds intuitive, but it’s not entirely accurate. The problem isn’t just individual ignorance, it’s the structure of the information environment people are placed into.

Been there, done that, waved the miniature American flag. I went in thinking it was a mere paperwork task and ended up pretty moved by the end of the ceremony.
If you've ever been to a naturalization ceremony, you know they're filled with people whose palpable love of this country is twenty times stronger than the pinched "patriotism" of any native-born MAGA chud.
Just unspeakable assholery.

Yes but also redrawing those maps doesn't come with a guarantee. We've just seen a 15 point shift in Tennessee. You're skimming of one district to fill another. If people turn up instead of treating it like a normal midterm it could get interesting.
Why aren't Democrats rushing to do the same? The failure of Ds to move to effectuate counter gerrymandering in many blue States should be facing huge public pushback.

Republicans in Indiana’s state House approved a new map that would give the GOP up to two more congressional seats. But the state Senate might not sign off on it.

If you want to feel really smart, try reading some comments under an Apollo moon landing video.
Even if you assume a large proportion are just trolls doing it for the lulz or bots, it's depressing as hell because the flat earth/moon landing conspiracy to far right pipeline is a real thing.

This is the third newsroom (at least) with an FBI leak about the suspect being a Trump supporter. Seems some FBI folks — presumably not the political hires —are very eager to get this out there.
BREAKING on MS NOW:
Brian Cole Jr., the suspect accused of being the Jan. 6 pipe bomber, confessed to agents that he planted the bombs and has indicated he supported President Trump, according to two people familiar with his interview.
