This analysis would've been correct back in 2024, but it just isn't in 2026. LLMs/GenAI are improving at light speed.

i think, in some fairness, that a lot of these people were deeply shaken by 2024 and “this was a realignment” is how they make it make sense. the idea that voters saw 2024 as just another election is disturbing to them.

2028 platform I can get behind: mass pardons for minor drug offenses in order to make room for every ICE agent ever hired.

I love it, but the AI is obsessed with some things. Flooded churches and preachers come to mind. It also seems to have some stock synopses, like I've gotten heist movies about people in an opera troupe multiple times despite only doing ~50 or so rounds.

Many Americans don’t want children to be on planes, or in malls, or in restaurants, or on streets, or in public, and the American government does not change policy when children are killed by cars or guns

DanMachi Season 1 was pretty enjoyable because it was mostly about Bell learning to be a hero, plus the reversal of the damsel in distress trope. The harem parts were fairly ignorable. Season 2 onwards became pure shounen harem trash. I dropped it early into season 3 and haven't regretted it since.

Early teens would probably get enough out of it to find it enjoyable, though a lot of the deeper themes and messaging is difficult even for lots of normal non-political adults to grasp. My main hangup is that there's a lot of foul language. Do you want your kids to hear characters like Cuno?

I'm still skeptical of Achilles beating Risch in November but I can totally buy it going to a runoff with Achilles winning there.

tbh two things: given how close Vance is to Claremont, and Schmitt and Claremont's mutual appreciation, this was always in the cards Also, fun challenge: which senator employed Nate Hochman?

Axios posting this was specifically as set up for his grilling of Jack Smith this morning right? This was supposed to be his big moment where he reveals a massive conspiracy against Trump, but instead gets absolutely humiliated because he doesn't know ball.

As someone in a STEM discipline, I really abhor the kind of messaging that Mark describes. The messengers aren’t people who actually care about STEM. It’s really a shorthand for “do something practical, focus on your relation to the labor market”.

For the second week in a row, the Bishop of my LDS ward is reading a letter from the Area 70 instructing members to vote against Idaho's Proposition 1 (legalizing abortion). Am I going to have to hear the same letter every week until November?

Something is really triggering the AI detector in my brain. This could be H3 Minimax. The post processing is very sus-looking like an AI filter, the movement is very inhuman, and there are lots of weird cuts that make me suspect that they could only generate only small clips to stitch together.

Growing up mormon, I have a distorted understanding of what mainstream Christians (Catholics, major Protestant faiths) believe. Apparently other religions don't believe that Satan's original name was Lucifer. You learn something new every day.

yeah look, making this guy gush about you is a massive propaganda coup. and again, last time he did this he got several NYCers freed from ICE immediately. he has material needs to deliver for NYC to protect them from fascism. he ain't smiling and praising Trump, he's making Trump like him.

Why talk about how nuts the AI rationalist sex cult is, and not just focus on the (very real) risks and harms of AI? Well, when we're discussing "who should get to regulate AI, and how," I think it's VERY relevant to talk about the antisocial, unsettling ways many people running US AI think.

I'm against the death penalty generally, but an exception should be made for serious political crimes that threaten democracy. There is no risk of wrongful imprisonment, of convicting the wrong person - only the risk of pardons down the line. Rot needs to be cut off and cast into the furnace.

I'm not seeing any way to move it to the right side in Chrome. Firefox has had vertical tabs for a while and it's very easy to switch which side they're on. Maybe a later update will add it to Chrome, or maybe a user-made browser extension?

Just a reminder that Achilles is more of a moderate conservative whose been left behind by the GOP rather than any sort of Democrat. He's running as an independent, not as a Democrat. (The Democrat, Roth, dropped out shortly after the primary.)
