This essay by Jordan Sand on how LLM chatbots—including the officially licensed “expert” campus version—produced entirely false versions of a primary source should be required reading for every history student #skystorians 🗃️

AI Is an Anti-Primary Source Machine
Real voices from the past are threatened by chatbots designed to amplify — and ultimately become — the loudest voices in the room.

Yes, Swiss scientist Fritz Zwicky coined the term “dark matter” which is impressive, but he also coined the term “spherical bastard” to describe people who are bastards no matter which way you look at them, and I think that should be celebrated more.

The Chicago City Council just approved a $261 million settlement with 17 people who alleged disgraced Det. Guevara framed them for murder. One of those 17 men is Tyrece Williams. I detailed his battle to finally clear his name in the @injusticewatch.org & @boltsmag.org story below.

the thing is that this sounds like a gross oversimplification for the sake of a joke shitpost and while yes there are technically several other things ARKNIGHTS could be said to be *about* this is hilariously exacting in describing what is literally *occurring* as the Prime Mover of alla that anyway

You can't trip Mamdani and El-Sayed up with a trick question because they know who they are and what they believe and they speak from the heart. A very simple thing that most politicians can't actually do. We need more of this.

Worth noting that apartheid actually has a legal definition under the 1973 Convention on the Suppression and Punishment of the Crime of Apartheid and the 2002 Rome Statute. Israel plainly violates the definition in both cases— the ICJ implicitly agreed in its 2024 ruling on the occupation.

An explanation on why Big Walk isn't available on Xbox. bigwalk.game/xbox
Regarding Xbox

In June 2026 we announced that the release of Big Walk would be limited to computers, Switch 2 and PS5. Since then, we have received many messages and comments, asking about a future Xbox release. We would like to address those questions here:

We have made the decision not to release Big Walk on Xbox, in accordance with the Palestinian-led BDS (Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions) movement’s call to boycott Microsoft, and their designation of Microsoft Games (and Xbox) as a priority boycott target. If you need help understanding our motives, we would recommend reading about why Microsoft is a BDS priority target, the successes this kind of pressure has already had on Microsoft, and especially, watching this great introductory piece by People Make Games.

It has always been our intention for Big Walk to be played by groups of friends, and we know that keeping the game off Xbox runs counter to those intentions. This decision means that some people will miss out on playing Big Walk with their friends, and we understand the disappointment we’re causing. We are disappointed too.

We would love for people to be able to play the game on Xbox, but not until Microsoft and/or Xbox have been removed as BDS boycott targets.

We’ve made this decision with the belief that meaningful change can be made in the world, that coordinated collective action can confront even the most powerful interests, and that one day, Palestine will be free.

Thank you for your understanding.

Sincerely,
House House

otsuka's theory of narrative consumption is a foundational scholarly text for the analysis of fandom - or it should be, anyway. otsuka was one of the guys in the literal room when the word "otaku" first saw print, codifying and defining the fan culture he participated in and saw around him.

I am entirely serious when I say that this should be seen as a moderate position. It specifically and surgically dismantles institutions that did not exist pre-9/11 and assigns their functions much as they were assigned pre-9/11.

This is me, regretfully, always.
A cartoon of a character with a helmet that reads "There is no such thing as a black and white answer in this situation and you cannot tackle the subject to its full complexity without addressing the many underlying factors and circumstances involved", they are staring in teeth-clenched rage, eyes with bright red pupils staring straight ahead. They're wearing a pin that reads "I ❤️ AMBIGUITY" and a shirt that reads "This is my nuance shirt. One fist is clenched tightly so you can see veins, hanging at their side, while the other is clutching a sign that reads "ITS MORE COMPLICATED THAN THAT".
