A prof I knew in grad school once sat on a committee with someone who flat out refused to hire anyone who wore a cross body bag to an interview because "lifting a strap over your head is unprofessional"

This is so accurate and also is this a safe space to admit there's a guy in a bunch of gambling ads who is clearly positioned as Someone I Should Recognize but idk who he is, other than Guy In Gambling Ads Who Keeps Doing A Weird Thing With His Fingers

It's a similar scenario to the Christian nationalists who think they're bringing about the Second Coming through fucking around in the Middle East. It should be understood that the religious irrationality of AI doomsday scenarios makes their believers *more* of a threat in the make-believe of it all

I do not believe that these guys are about to summon a world-ending superconsciousness from Nvidia graphics cards. But they either believe they can or want me to believe they believe they can. So I think "fuck them" is the only rational response

I have chronic hip flexor issues so when I got back into running recently I watched a few reels on hip strengthening exercises. Within 2 weeks my feed went from "yoga moves for weak hips" to "here's a chronic disease you definitely have that can cause weak hips" to "your doctor is a fucking liar"

This isn’t exclusive to AI, by the way, though it includes AI as presented in hundreds of tech journalism puff pieces and finger-wagging Chronicle sermons. My history classroom is not your “sandbox,” and your suggestion that it should be only tells me how unqualified you are for this conversation.

This is a *phenomenal* interview and I'm going to get Dr. Phelps's book ASAP I would add that personally I think the administration's initial focus on Somali refugees (and then Hmong refugees) was seen by white liberals as an attack on our conception of self as a city that welcomes refugees

This whole article (linked in next post) is terrifying but I'm sorry, how the fuck are ICE agents getting stolen plates???

Screenshot that says:

Police Chief Matt Markham told a crowded town hall recently that his department actually used Flock data against ICE by reporting stolen license plates on agents’ vehicles. The plates were then tracked down by Shakopee police, who cited the agents.

(The part about stolen plates is highlighted)

These guys aren’t sexist because they’re secretly gay; they’re misogynists because it’s perfectly possible to have sex with women and also hate them. That’s the central problem of heterosexuality, actually.

75,000 Minnesotans have benefited from our new nation-leading paid leave program. In Minnesota, we stand by the workers who drive our economy - whether you’re welcoming a new baby or taking care of a sick family member. www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

As Minnesota paid leave program hits half-year mark, 75,000 have already tapped into it

Minnesota’s paid leave program gives workers time off with partial pay around family expansions or medical programs. So far almost 75,000 people have been approved for leave.
