Here's PIRG researcher RJ Cross getting the Alilo Smart AI bunny to tell @savanahsellers.bsky.social about S&M, the FoloToy Sunflower Warmie telling me it is actually both a cactus and a teddy bear (???) and the Miiloo spouting the CCP line on Taiwan.

Listening to tonight's Federal Way city council land use committee meeting, where a councilmember was questioning the need to add a sidewalk to a street directly connecting Federal Way High School with the light rail station, "because it's a residential area" and would impact parking.

When I worked in WaPo Opinions in 2017-2018, senior editors specifically told junior editors not to factcheck Marc Thiessen and other MAGA columnists, otherwise they wouldn’t be able to publish anything by them at all, and “we need them for intellectual diversity.”
It’s very telling that opening your publication to MAGA “thought” requires a massive downgrade in quality control.

1/ A longtime Wired editor just wrote a mush-brained essay about how he totally missed the political rot of Silicon Valley (& still doesn't get it).
But in the late 1990s, a Wired journalist warned of a toxic ideology bubbling up from tech. Paulina Borsook has largely been erased. Let's change that

Charlie Kirk advocated for and promoted political violence every day of his life, and his work is a large part of why we are where we are.

This is so tragic. The endless horror of gun violence in this country should be unacceptable to all of us. And there can be no tolerance for political violence in America. I’m pulling for Mr. Kirk and thinking of his family and the survivors.
A person is in custody after Charlie Kirk was shot at an event at Utah Valley University.

Bookmark this moment, 11.31pm, June 30 - when JD Vance described sick Americans dying without healthcare as “minutiae”.
Because, if America remains anywhere close to a functioning society, his 2028 candidacy ended tonight.

Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.
