A good reminder that Musk has no interest in American or European security.

If you are proud of Canada’s support for Ukraine over the last three years, Chrystia Freeland is the person to thank for that. I am not sure we would have seen the magnitude of response to Russia’s illegal assault on Ukraine without her in the Trudeau government.

One of my favourite things as a history teacher is finding out new information that makes me rethink what I’m doing. Time to update my Mughals scheme of work (again!) thanks to this wonderful series on the Mughal emperors. Thanks @willdalrymple.bsky.social and @anitaanand.bsky.social #historyteacher

Good. It’s horrific how other platforms abused their reach to strangle local, independent, and national outlets alike. I WANT to see news and actual vetted work and I WANT journalists to get rewarded for it. Because I want to live in a thinking human world over some AI generated slop dystopia

One thing I find interesting about the echo chamber complaint is that an echo chamber just won a presidential election. Put aside the convo of whether it’s “good” or “bad” for a moment. The far right has devoted enormous resources + time to building echo chambers & loathes spaces they don’t control

There is now some hard evidence that X boosted the Trump campaign and suppressed the Harris campaign. What's to stop Musk from doing the same in other countries? www.threads.net/@profsander....

New computational analyses from the University of Queensland on algorithmic bias suggest that the X algorithm substantially boosted Republican accounts right after Elon Musk's endorsement of Donald Tr...

I'm still not quite all the way through Rings of Power s2 - its a slog - but it is fascinating to me how much substituting GRRM morality for Tolkien morality basically breaks the story and characters, so that a story that was about hubris is now about, like, magic mind control.
