Donald Trump gives people permission to be their worst selves. His politics are not just representative, they are generative. His words seep into people’s souls and slowly corrode whatever potential for human decency ever resided there.
Floridians are taking pictures of themselves next to the sign for their new death camp
As I've said before, giving this concentration camp a cutesy name is reprehensible

The red state/blue state framework is an inelegant ruse to help people turn against each other and our collective interest.
We'll never get the freedom we deserve by targeting places where local governments have disenfranchised and suppressed Black and Brown people.
Cut it out.

Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

When America awarded 49.8 percent of the popular vote to Trump, they were crying out as one that they wanted it to be June of 2020 again, and then to just hang out in that vibe for as long as possible. And on that front you absolutely have to hand it to the guy for getting us there so quickly.

Absolutely. And the fact that it’s a calculus you have to do in every part of life. Personal, professional, doesn’t matter.
Constant do I buy that or wait. Am I safe for now or not? Is this a worthy investment given tomorrow might present a whole other reality.
It’s too much.

It’s weird to live in a time when basic principles like cruelty is wrong, cheating is empty & the idea that curiosity, generosity, originality, the satisfaction of earned accomplishments & loving intimacy are the center of a good life feel like countercultural concepts

Exactly. The Pope adheres to ancient, straightforward Sunday School teachings about helping the needy and not being cruel to the vulnerable.
That this is being portrayed as radical and partisan says way more about the ones making the accusation than it does about him.
