"Contrary to Miller and Trump, Lakanwal’s shooting spree is not the result of importing Afghan culture to America. While much will surely be revealed in Lakanwal’s upcoming trial, it looks more like the result of importing American culture to Afghanistan." New from me @zeteo.com

He Killed for the CIA in Afghanistan. Trump Blames Afghan Culture Instead of Langley’s
After the National Guard shooting, the US needs to reckon with how its legacy of global violence inevitably comes home. Stephen Miller wants to do anything but.

Hello, please see attached. They want to sign on Monday so we have our work cut out for us before then. I have a prior family engagement this weekend, but I’ll be available for update calls 9pm each night. I’ve put time on your calendars for those. Let’s get started.

lefty messaging around AI should be about specific policy outcomes and not "let's shoot the computer." if you push for affordable homes, reliable and cheap utilities, and actually legislate the specific accountability and IP issues, then you don't have to explicitly take away everyone's new toy.

you just can't have a meaningful conversation about the potential benefits of "AI" while this stuff is happening. it's like trying to talk about how useful an airplane might be during a hijacking

defunctland videos are great because everyone in charge of disneyland for the past half century have been trying to carry out what they think walt would’ve wanted like they’re the patriots in MGS trying to carry out the boss’s will. coincidentally both involve giant robot dinosaurs

Not only did the White House spend $100k on the drug they give Air Force pilots who need to stay awake for 72 hours, they could have saved a ton of money buying generic modafinil instead!

It's annoying how the president is a synecdoche for the entire executive branch's leadership... it props up Great Man mythbuilding and lets his more active lieutenants and supporters off the hook from public accountability. Stop talking about "what Trump wants" when you mean "what these donors want"

you could tell people they need shoes so they won't trip and get trampled on the way out of the aircraft if there's an emergency. in fact just tell everyone to "dress safely, or else" wink, and then don't answer any questions

out on a run today. a toddler and his dad were waiting for me to pass so they could cross the running path. the kid waved at me, so I waved back, and then his dad noticed and started jumping and clapping and then they were both cheering like I was finishing a marathon. this cured my depression.

In case you needed more reasons to puke about RFK Jr. today: Tatiana Schlossberg is fighting terminal leukemia and she fucking hates her cousin. www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...
Meanwhile, during the CAR-T treatment, a method developed over many decades with millions of dollars of government funding, my cousin, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., was in the process of being nominated and confirmed as the Secretary of Health and Human Services. Throughout my treatment, he had been on the national stage: previously a Democrat, he was running for President as an Independent, but mostly as an embarrassment to me and the rest of my immediate family.
