Just spoke with my CDC sources: a new COVID-19 variant, NB.1.8.1, is spreading across Louisiana, NYC, LA, DC, Colorado, and more. It's also fueling surges in China, Hong Kong, and other parts of Asia.

It’s have been cool if Nice Pope had had the judgment to NOT say “both sides are equally bad” running up to the 2024 election
Text screenshot excerpting a BBC article:

Pope Francis has called both major US presidential candidates "against life" and advised Catholic voters to choose the "lesser evil" when casting their ballots in the November election.

The pontiff said not welcoming migrants seemingly referring to Trump- is a "grave" sin, and compared Kamala Harris's stance on abortion to an "assassination".

"Both are against life, be it the one who kicks out migrants, or be it the one who kills babies," the Pope said in rare political comments at a Friday news conference as he wrapped up a 12-day tour through southeast Asia.

The Pope did not refer to Harris or Trump by name in his comments.

That AI animated video of the guy in bed under a comforter with an orange cat pawing his face (or rather, a disembodied head with flesh teeth rolls about while two spiderhands roam across fabric with no body beneath, while a cat with five legs morphs near the head) actually nauseated me. HATE IT.

Also, if it wasn’t clear, this isn’t some sappy “just hang on” kitten clawing for the last scraps of its life on an office motivational poster post, this is a direct rebuke of Democratic elected officials who think a strongly worded statement is the extent of their power. Fuck you, go do something.

I’ve taught 20 yrs of students Constitutional rights like due process & equal protection. Now, I’d be lying to them to say these laws, literally written into our Constitution, are followed. These basic rights prohibit shipping people off with no due process. All Americans should be outraged.

what they said ⬇️
Tumblr post: generative AI literally makes me feel like a boomer. people start talking about how it can be good to help you brainstorm ideas and i’m like oh you’re letting a computer do the hard work and thinking for you???

Tumblr reply: There are many difficult things that were replaced with technology, and it wasn't a bad thing. Washing machine replaces washing clothes by hand. Nothing wrong with that. Spinning wheel replaces drop spindle. Nothing wrong with that. Generative AI replaces thinking. The ability to think for yourself will always be important. People that want to control and oppress you want to limit your ability to think for yourself as much as possible, but continuing to practice it allows you to resist them.

Screenshot of text reading:

Professor William T. Kelley taught Marketing at Wharton
School of Business and Finance, University of
Pennsylvania, for 31 years, ending with his retirement in
1982.

Professor Kelley told me 100 times over three decades
that "Donald Trump was the dumbest goddam student I
ever had." I remember his emphasis and inflection - it
went like this - "Donald Trump was the dumbest
goddam student I ever had." Dr. Kelley told me this after
Trump had become a celebrity but long before he was
considered a political figure.

He cosponsored the Laken Riley act, which took due process from immigrants accused (justly or no) of a crime, then told NYT that offshore concentration camps were fine because due process would keep innocents from being interred. If you want a response look for the next $5k/seat Sedona fundraiser.

Screenshot of a tweet from the other place by @TimothyDSnyder:

“If you accept that non-citizens have no right to due process, you are accepting that citizens have no right to due process. All the government has to do is claim that you are not a citizen; without
due process you have no chance to prove the
contrary.“
