A grim reminder: these people will never be satisfied. There’s no point at which they will say “we’ve won, let’s enjoy life.” They will always be looking for someone else to punish, to revile, to dehumanize. They’re empty without that.

President Trump’s federal takeover of D.C.’s local police is unprecedented. “The last person who asserted the authority to use military personnel for routine law enforcement anywhere in the country for any reason was King George,” a legal scholar said.

That Kamala interview was heart breaking because it's one of the few times that I've ever seen a national political figure say the system is broken and that trying to work within it to change things probably wont work.

Trump is planning on firing the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Politicizing agencies that collect employment and economic data is exactly what the Soviets did to conceal an economy that wasn’t working. And it looks Trump is headed in this direction.
Corrupt. Dangerous. Deeply deeply damaging.

This is the world generative AI peddlers long for, one where people are incompetent without their service.

i think a lot about how zotero is actually one of the technologies academia actually should be pushing on students and faculty versus the lake-guzzling, town poisoning, and labor exploiting chatbots
Zotero has changed my life for the better. What a marvelous piece of software.

I do firmly believe that refusing to outsource your basic cognitive functions to LLMs right now - as so many are stumbling over themselves to do right now, like hogs trotting to a pile of slop that’s been set up inside of a butcher’s delivery truck - will very much pay off in a few years.

Pay attention.

If you let these fucking LLMs into high schools and colleges, a Nazi billionaire can tweak the bigotry dial and funnel Nazi propaganda into the classrooms.

One man cannot, overnight, change a fact as written in thousands of copies of hundreds of different books across the world's libraries.

But under pressure from the politicians or guided by his own depravity, he can rewrite history overnight by altering the output of the LLM he owns.

Popping in to remind everyone Trump is just a figure head and even if leaves tomorrow American fascism will still march on without him and most likely without popular pushback as he is being pushed as a singular threat when the real threat is the republicans and the systems they are building.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

THREAD. A lot of attention is rightly going to Medicaid cuts and other very bad things in Trump's bill passed by the House, but there's something else that isn't getting enough attention, that is very difficult to find in any news coverage, but that will fundamentally alter life for all of us.

If you want to do searches that don't use AI, you can search on DuckDuckGo instead of Google or your can enter your search terms into Google and add the phrase -AI before hitting "search". That will it will return results without using AI.

I don't know that I could think of a better illustration of a journalist following the authoritarian's playbook than this description of Trump's first 100 days. I'm not just criticizing the journalism, here. I'm saying journalists are playing the role Trump wants them to play.
