This is why I think it's so important to push back against the personification of LLMs. If a person shoots someone while wearing a hand puppet, they can't claim the hand puppet did the murder.

It is interesting to note that in that era, Gloria Steinem was also transphobic - but in this century, pivoted very much in the opposite direction. www.them.us/news/gloria-... It is possible for that generation of feminist to learn and grow. Morgan *chose* not to.

My experience is of every American COVID-19 mitigation effort being obviously insufficient, and ended far too soon. To see people now argue that they somehow were too much, going too far? Not anti-vax or MAGA people, but folks just out here on Bluesky? It staggers me.

As we recall the trauma caused by COVID in 2020, we should not forget COVID continues to harm. Many still suffer from Long COVID, people who mask are often harassed, and we haven’t scaled clean air infrastructure. If we truly acknowledge past harms, we should be working to create a better future.

Let’s be clear here, when scientists say mistakes were made at the start of the pandemic, we DO NOT mean that we did too much. We mean not socially distancing quickly enough, not making tests widely available, and not acknowledging COVID is airborne and distributing N95 masks to everyone.

I cannot stand the parodies of modern major general,
they're overdone and simply not as good as the original.
They've done them about everything, whatever topic, big or small.
And when i notice one of them my eyes will always start to roll.

The diction’s always slurry when they rush the
complicated words, and adding many fricatives will turn
it so cacophonous. The slanted rhymes are silly and they
keep just making more and more, please someone stop
the parodies of modern major general.

The scanning of the lyrics in the meter is unbearable,
they emphazise the syllables in ways that are untenable,
in short in matters musical, prosodic and ephemeral, i
cannot stand the parodies of modern major general!

Every one of the DOJ attorneys who sign baseless subpoenas, file baseless complaints, and seek baseless indictments would quit or refuse if they knew they'd get suspended, lose their licenses, or go to jail over it. It'd stop it all in an instant. At some point these abuses are on the bar/judges.

To Democrats and their eulogies: If you say that democracy is under attack by the Republican Party—and it is—and you say that the Republican Party represents an authoritarian threat—and it does—then civility and comity have already been murdered, and shows of comity are utterly incoherent.

The Republican Party is not our enemy because we intend to kill them, but because they intend to kill us--and already have killed a great many of us. Your friendship ought not to have survived that; it is to your great discredit that it did. Our anger, born of discouragement, is real and abiding.

We live in an era where testing, grades, writing, teaching conditions, and reading are all simultaneously in forms of crisis, and, to my mind, the common denominator is a complete lack of focus and intention on learning as the desired outcome of education.

If you’re conflicted about the weekend’s celebrations, I understand. But the truth is this: This isn’t Trump’s 250th. This is America’s 250th. And to me, that means a celebration of and recommitment to a founding ethos that we’ll never bow down to a king or accept tyranny against our neighbors.

Mid-afternoon thoughts: the Trump regime and its minions have visibly committed so MANY crimes that it is not enough to try two or three ICE agents, or cabinet members, or Trump family members. We much hold ALL of them accountable to the fullest extent of the law. That is the only way to fix this.
