AG Letitia James Just Stood Up For Trans Youth In New York. Now, Will Mayor Mamdani Act? Attorney General Letitia James has demanded NYU Langone restart care for transgender youth. Will NYC Mayor Mamdani act as well?

And @erininthemorning.com reported that. Still nothing on Mt. Sinai, though: www.erininthemorning.com/p/ag-letitia...

And I thought the whole point of Mamdani being buddy buddy text bff’s with Trump was so the federal government wouldn’t fuck with him. If he can’t protect trans folks then that tactic is not worthwhile

I’ve tried to be as fair to Mamdani as possible. I’ve reached out, as have other journalists, several times. They’ve stonewalled us. It would go a long way if they could just say if they’re willing to direct H+H to absorb the patients, which is what she was asked about and she refused to say yes.

Scroll through Bluesky until I hit my daily limit of sad, annoyed, or both.

"explain it to me like I'm 5" well, to start, the earth isn't actually flat

Hmmmm wat trouble will Fiasco get up to today

Maher is an Islamophobe of the highest order. The fact that he has not been run out of town is a measure of how unseriously Islamophobia is treated in this country.

It seems bizarre to try and square the desires of evangelicalism and MAGA and fascism and all those related sects, but the key to doing it is to finally wrap your head around the fact that their purposes are inherently self-destructive because they are, and this isn’t exaggeration, death cults.

I am having trouble understanding what he is saying. Do you have a version with him speaking in the original German?

NY Times gonna call it a "hand gesture of historical significance"

When are people going to learn?

A two word horror story:

US strategic analysis of Iran:

Until the baseline public response is "I am certain this initial thing you are telling me is false," the lying will continue

And we will never get to that baseline response because there are legions of people who masturbate to the thought of armed government thugs shooting people they don't like

Not to repeat myself but: DHS lies brazenly because lying brazenly works

It's what police depts around the country do on a regular basis when they have unfavorable facts. Honed to perfection, amplified by media stenographers.

Recall, this is how they initially described George Floyd's murder:

"A U.S. diplomat who was in the embassy when McGurk arrived found his steady advance astonishing. “Brett only meets people who speak English. … There are like four people in the government who speak English. And somehow he’s now the person who should decide the fate of Iraq? How did this happen?”"

they lie every single time

it’s always murder, they’re always smearing the victim in order to cover for themselves

DHS statements should be treated, presumptively, as the exact opposite of the truth

not exaggerations, not inaccurate - brazen, total lies

Evidence Grows That Google's AI Overviews Have Eviscerated the Media Industry Google's AI overviews have eviscerated the media landscape, with some top publications losing up to 97 percent of their web traffic.

Welp. The internet had a nice run.

Some outlets have lost over 90% of their traffic since the "AI" summaries rolled out.

"...the four worst-hit publications [now] get less monthly web traffic combined than the r/ChatGPT subreddit gets on its own."

Dismantle DHS and haul every single agent into tribunals is the moderate demand

if companies don't want their data centers targeted, they shouldn't have sold themselves a war machines

if you're gonna keep bragging that you are using LLMs to target your enemy, your enemy is probably going to decide to take out the datacenters fueling those LLMs

WaPo is in disastrous shape, but this is a wild byline on a story like this.

My favorite bird shot from the rented Laowa 200mm f/2 that I had last weekend. Shooting a telephoto at f/2 is such a unique experience. I really need to get one permanently.

Fair play to the Quakers for being seen as a threat to the English state for a solid 375 years.
