People say we can't compare this to the Third Reich because of the atrocities but we only found out about the atrocities after the fact when it was all said and done and we're not done with this yet so I am sure the worst stomach churning shit has yet to be revealed.
there's a lot going on right now but did you know a massive amount of the world's fertilizer flows through the middle east, and did you know that that fertilizer needs to be shipped to the us *right now* for planting season, and uh did you know we are at war with iran
there is no reforming this; firing and prosecution is the compromise position
Another wonderful article by Jess DeCourcy Hinds and I am happy to see so many librarians that I’m honored to know, being recognized!

Why do people still waste pixels claiming Kamala Harris supposedly ran to the right of Trump on something, which supposedly demoralized some group of people, which supposedly caused her to lose?
There’s no issue on which Harris ran to Trump’s right. Not a single fucking one. Quit making shit up.
Maybe we'll get lucky and have a double header the same week.
the thing is we need someone to do the things the ADL used to do/should do. Groups like @nexusproject.bsky.social are doing their best but they don't have the elite buy-in or name recognition to have as much impact.
The Musk salutes demonstrated that the organization has completely abdicated the fight against actual antisemitism.
No clue how anyone could take the ADL seriously after that farce.
I don't think American Jewish institutions like the ADL and the AJC have fully reckoned with how their behavior during the Zohran Mamdani mayoral election is going to prove to be the kind of generational mistake that will place American Jews in greater danger for years to come.
Not enough about this. 3 Dem incumbents in North Carolina who voted with Republicans to override vetos lost big time to primary challengers. Let that be a message.
Yes, greater linear velocity allows storing more information. Not sure how noticeable it would be here.
(Changing speeds from previously standard 78 rpm after WWII wasn't about better sound, it was that other advances in audio technology compensated for slower speed, allowing longer records.)
This reminds me of something Toni Morrison wrote.
Caitlin KALINOWSKI over X I resigned from OpenAl. I care deeply about the Robotics team and the work we built together. This wasn't an easy call. Al has an important role in national security. But surveillance of Americans without judicial oversight and lethal autonomy without human authorization are lines that deserved more deliberation than they got. This was about principle, not people. I have deep respect for Sam and the team, and I'm proud of what we built together.
OpenAI head of robotics just resigned over company deal with the Pentagon saying…
“Surveillance of Americans without judicial oversight and lethal autonomy without human authorization are lines that deserved more deliberation than they got”
The pentagon refusing to give a simple yes or no to this question is pretty telling of itself
This neatly encapsulates The Dipshit Paradox:
Any ignorance creating sufficiently damaging effects will become indistinguishable from malice. Any sufficiently damaging malice will be abetted by ignorance. We must never exonerate malice simply because it can easily be explained by stupidity.
I would argue they knew exactly what they were doing, which was deliberately sabotaging needed public works programs by offering snake oil they never had any intention of delivering.
How beyond sick that he lingers on the words "pure violence."
He wears his blood lust the way Noem wears costumes.
“A DOJ source told the Miami Herald that agents found her to be credible—and that they would not have interviewed her four times if they thought she was lying.”

This is serious and sacred stuff. This isn’t partisan or even political. He is out of his mind, he is irrational, he is vengeful and splenetic and delirious, and he controls the most destructive power assembled in human history — which, critically, he has successfully mechanized into *war* currently

Guardian: Analysis - ‘Operation Epstein Distraction’: Trump’s bloody Iran ‘hype videos’ seem to target niche audience

Both the TV remote control and the audio cassette tape have their origins as accessibility devices.
My latest on Russia assisting Iran in targeting U.S. troops and interests.
And a reminder on how Russia did this before in Afghanistan, when they offered bounties to Taliban militants to kill Americans.
I'm unsure how people really think people were downplaying a virus that can kill you, make you go blind, wipe out your immune system for years, and oh yeah come back and kill you a decade after you thought you'd shaken it.
I planned to share my report on the body cam footage early next week when I learned that a DC news station had obtained some of the footage as a result of my lawsuit and they were going to scoop me. After working on this for a year, I couldn't let that happen. Published 2 mins before they aired :)
Harper to the judge: "Your driver's license doesn't list your height and weight at birth. It doesn't list where you used to live. It identifies who you are now."
“I cannot hug him, I cannot kiss him.”
One woman, an aunt of a man who was killed during an LAPD interaction by bullets fired from officers. She says it was due to a pretextual stop.
Several aides in the back visibly laughing. Several councilmembers do not look up from their desks.
I'm not suggesting this is an open secret within the climate science community, but it's remarkable how little impact this sort of research is generating. Because if the rate of warming really has *doubled* then you can kiss goodbye to 2°C. www.carbonbrief.org/pace-of-glob...
Super shocking. Given that Russia helped our enemies during Vietnam, Korea, and both gulf wars, who could have guessed this would happen. www.cnn.com/2026/03/06/p...
