So the fact that we bombed a girls elementary school, while likely using AI for targeting, is going to be a major headline story dominating American news coverage when exactly?

Never forget that this what The Washington Post said when Noem was nominated.
finally watched Casablanca. wild in this day and age for something to actually live up to the hype
Over 160 schoolgirls are dead. Anthropic and Palantir executives must immediately testify and tell the public whether their AI is responsible.
I wrote about how the US and Israel carried out an attack on an Iranian girls school on par with the OKC bombing and US media relegated it to a back page story. No stand alone evening news segments, no front page stories, it made A11 in the NYT then everyone moved on.
We shouldnβt be so concerned that Mullin doesnβt have a bachelorβs degree
Plenty of smart, successful people never went to college
We should be concerned that Mullin is unqualified, particularly stupid and ridiculously arrogant-a dangerous combination which is unfortunately very common among MAGA
Met this fine chap on my morning walk
My school district is being forced to lay off several educators and a librarian because of a $500,000 budget gap, or roughly the amount spent on the war while I was typing this post.

There is a saying that when plans for war are made, the enemy has a say. Well, in this case, so do allies who are disproportionately affected.
Energy market analysts say the impact of the Iran War on supply could be bigger than the 1973 oil embargo.

Itβs so cool how weβre in a large-scale military conflict and the President is spending his time building a ballroom.
This rocks. I finally know what being a Roman must have felt like.
Bernard LaFayette, the advance man who did the risky groundwork for the voter registration campaign in Selma, Alabama, that culminated in the passage of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, has died.
frankly, i think all of the celebrating over Kristi Noemβs departure is premature & not just because sheβs in there for the rest of the monthπ€·ββοΈ
Secretary Markwayne
The new head of the Department of Homeland Security, everyone.
(He also previously confused Ayatollah Khomeini with Ayatollah Khamenei, so he has his finger on the pulse. Weβre clearly in good hands.)
This is a big win. Kristi Noem was a disaster, and people speaking up got her fired.
But Kristi Noem is not the architect of Trump's dangerous mass deportation policies, and we can't let up the pressure.
Fire Stephen Miller.
Proving yet again one of my basic rules on navigating Trumpism: He will always replace an incompetent person with someone more incompetent.

Jesse Singal tweet: Yada yada. Someone i know & trust at the New Yorket says she has this right. The people who mindlessly amplified Overbey should rethink stuff
lmao, this was a badge of honor. Weird transphobe Jesse Singal attacking me because I dared to publicly reveal the New Yorkerβs awful diversity & equal pay data and Gawker claimed I did it because I lacked βjoie de vivreβ (Iβm literally not making that up). Ppl always think they can come for meβ¦π€
