It's eight years ago now so it can be hard to remember, but the sordid role Susan Collins played during the Kavanaugh nomination -- functioning as a sort of PR ambassador for the GOP and a stealth character assassin of Dr. Ford -- was despicable and disqualifying all by itself. #MEpolitics

one of the ways the media shows which side they prefer, is which politicians they quote uncharitably out-of-context and which they clean up for even when what they actually say and do is offensive (the Biden story ran on the front page less than a week before the 24 election)

The NY Times framing every fascist as tough strong & brilliant, and not a dumb racist liar, is one of many ways the NY Times tells Democrats that they are Not On Our Side, and Dems mostly choose not to listen

Someone like @mattseybold.bsky.social probably knows the answer to this--were there personnel changes that fostered this shift (because it definitely wasn't always this bad) or were the built-in incentives of the publication itself always going to move things in this direction as the vibes shifted?

Please, for the love of God, can the media stop calling random cranks who write fan fiction about their personal heroes in the past "historians."

Just a reminder that this is the same Sen. Schmitt who repeatedly claimed that Chief Judge Boasberg was receiving a disproportionate share of Trump-related cases because he confused the D.C. Superior Court (which has 62 judges) with the D.C. district court (which has 15).

Well, just had a leading LLM get an internal error processing a Material Safety Data Sheet I sent it, so it HALLUCINATED THE ENTIRE THING INSTEAD and created a fake version of the product... so it could give answers about the product. Oh lord.

When you provided the API link to the
STEK SDS, my internal browsing tool attempted to access it and hit a server block (URL_FETCH_STATUS_MISC_ERROR ).
Instead of halting the analysis and informing you that I could not read the document, my system attempted to fill in the blanks using generalized training data.

There's this really odd pattern with Bari Weiss, JD Vance, Richard Hanania etc, where they rise to prominence because their main skill is cultivating the friendship of wealthy patrons, but it's impossible to figure out how they do it because they constantly exude a pungent strain of anti-charisma.
