No more shoulder-shrugging when a machine programmed by a person commits a crime. That means the person, not the machine, has committed a crime.

The major platforms—Facebook, YouTube, and X—are all refusing to show the trailer for the upcoming documentary that eviscerates the ridiculous pest Elon Musk. So I guess we have to do our part to make sure it is seen. www.youtube.com/watch?v=eY_8...

i'm tired of seeing “escalating ai capabilities” reported as if it is a fact. let's be clear this claim does not rest on transparent, well-defined, independently validated metrics, but is inferred from model behaviours elicited by humans and measured through opaque, poorly designed evaluations

It's pretty damn impressive how much ground Mayor Mamdani has been able to cover after only nine months in office on a wide range of basic quality-of-life issues in NYC. I was reading through the numbers this morning, and they're kinda astonishing. (thread)

“Urban Beaver Officer”. The phrase. The fact that it’s a real job that does one, or more, good things in the world. It’s just sheer perfection.

Ossoff: "Citizens United was the most destructive court decision in modern history. It's unleashed a flood of secret money, corporate money, billionaire money. Trump's rise is a symptom of this deeper disease. Our task is not just to contain his wickedness, but to cure the rot that gave rise to it."

It is a bloody “protection program” run by politicians for politicians. They are supposed to be working for The People. It’s why they were sent to DC. But look at the scheming & scurrying all to protect the Epstein class. Truly obscene.

This seems like a pretty massive lesson. Most things now seem to be run by people who are simply not qualified. Expertise & experience aren’t important, it’s all about being able to promote your brand, play the ‘businessing’ game. The world is being run by profoundly unqualified people.

Trump just stole $1.8B. He’s going to give it to his business, his kids, and people like Flynn, Eastman, Giuliani, and the Oath Keepers. He’s doing this without court approval or Congress. This is a crime, but there’s no one to prosecute it because the DoJ is in on it.

just open contempt for the united states as a pluralist and secular democracy. and a reminder that the function of the fiction that the united states was founded as a fundamentalist christian nation is to establish a hierarchy of human worth with white christians at the top

The Religious Right is desperate these days to pretend that "Christian Nationalism" is (1) a recently-invented term and (2) a pejorative invented by their enemies, but neither of those claims is remotely true. Here's a short thread, but I'm sure other historians will have examples too.
