Well .... did it work?
It continues to be really wild watching Trump make the Iraq War look well managed and well thought put by comparison
The question then is obviously why Marco Rubio didn't tell Marco Rubio to prepare for this...
Losing losers lose again.
Although no one looks worse than the early rush-to-comply caucus.
Fighting back works. Please take notes university leaders.
Trump has offered effectively zero rationale to the public and the result is confusion and diffidence - 68% say not justified or not sure; only 62% of Rs say justified
Trump administration to every vendor:
If folks are using GenAI to search for info, might be important to know what's returned and how consistently. Neat application here to political candidates. To me the variance across LLMs in what sources are included and how regularly is fascinating.
I really feel that a major failing of APSA is that there are no opportunities for us to all watch musicals and classic movies together at least one night.
"The central plot idea is that the Phantom and Christine have slept together. If people don't buy that, then they're never going to come onboard with the show, they're never going to respond to it."
Oh God what on earth...
Yeah but I think you are supposed to feel like he is a tragic figure instead ... you know .... horrible.
Whaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!???!!!!!!
@sgadarian.bsky.social I think i need your guidance on this issue.
Like I think at the end we are supposed to feel sympathy for the Phantom? But mostly I was kinda hoping that a#@%ole was actually dead.
The Phantom of the Opera as a precursor to the contemporary incel movement, a praxis in three parts ....
Took my oldest to see Phantom of the Opera, which was very fun and the songs still hold up. Although ... the plot is much more deeply problematic than I had remembered.
that seems very bad.
Was thinking more about AI lit reviews, so I gave Opus 4.6 a shot to do a lit review I know well (marginal structural models in the social sciences). Looked pretty good until it credited me with a paper by @smtorres.bsky.social
Unfortunately, Google AI overview confirmed by authorship...
I know we are well past this but …..
… just imagine if Obama had done this ….
Treating this as a debate worthy of discussion over the last several years is a huge part of the problem, as it has been for things like "do tax cuts pay for themselves?" & "does mass voter fraud exist?" & "can the United States of America afford to pay its debts?" since about 1980.
Weird how holding politicians accountable when they try and illegally subvert democracy seems to work everywhere in the world, but in America it is just too extreme.
Opening band for the university summit to "restore trust in higher education" (probably)

A powerful call for university leaders to live up to the moment. And I am once again embarrassed to find my own university lining up on the wrong side of history.

Between the ads for AI and the AI ads I feel like this is some sort of cultural inflection point.
Love that open AI just put up Bayes theorem in their ad like it was some kind of new invention.
Kaitlan Collins @kaitlancollins President Trump now says it was Attorney General Pam Bondi who insisted DNI Tulsi Gabbard attend the FBI raid in Georgia. Last night, he told NBC he didn't know why she was there. And Gabbard said in a letter to Congress that "the president specifically directed my observance of the execution of the Fulton County search warrant."
I want to reiterate that this shit is nuts. A federal invasion of state-run elections, an intelligence community invasion of federal law enforcement, a White House invasion of a criminal investigation, and a president’s insane treasonable sore loser obsession all rolled up and muddled together.
Oh yes, that seems right. There is a big basked of people who see all of this violence and democratic decline and think it's awesome. Someone should come up with a technical name for them ...
