Mélanie Joly: "This is not an act of God. This is a question of U.S. tariffs imposed by the Trump administration against us, against our country, against our steel workers, which the CEO of Stelco is supporting. We are looking at all options. Everything is on the table."

Artificial intelligence is a standard term, coined in 1956 by researcher John McCarthy. Artificial is an accurate term, in contrast to natural. Brains grow from cells. AIs run in equipment that people build. Hence "artificial." It can be stupid or smart, but it stays "artificial." Trump is a moron.

A(n ostensibly) feminist rabbinic colleague got in my DMs the other day to scream at me about how drawing attention to these— well, there’s no banality to this evil— Was “playing into the hands of the Right” Like, when is the right time to name a genocide, then? Only after? Only then? Like?

Yankees-Rays, that play at second, where Chisholm‘s throw was clearly an error - way too high, it would have pulled a 1st baseman off the bag, for sure - but, because they got the out at second, it’s ruled a fielder’s choice and no error. That’s a bad scoring rule. It doesn’t reflect what happened.

This is what women on the right say about another woman who was gang raped. These are the same people our current Dem leadership thinks should be allowed to participate in normal society after we wrest control from the psychos.

Canada manages its arctic as a remote colony, like France vis a vis New Caledonia. (These soldiers aren’t even in the arctic, or in Canada; the Canadian arctic is utterly alien to them) Denmark’s managed as a near colony. Finland’s as domestic territory. www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

Colson Whitehead. Harlem, 1986. A work of fiction, yes, but a prescription for our times, a broader interpretation of “termination for cause.”
From COOL MACHINE by Colson Whitehead (Doubleday, 2026):

Last week Carney had fired Jerome the sales associate after he admitted that he had voted for Reagan, not once but twice. “What this country needs is a good kick in the ass, you know.” Carney showed him the door. What message did it send to the community to hire people of such low character?

A pretty key & funny theme in Rome worship is that the statues look very austere and white, ie “classical”. And arguably “white” in racial sense, tho I think that’s overstated. But most were originally painted. And they looked very different, more florid and certainly to modern eyes more eastern.

Like the anti-woke backlash of which it's part, the whole "campuses as hotbeds of left-wing radicalism" discourse willfully confuses the noise for the signal. Most people go for a job credential and leave deeply socialized into the protocols of power, of which violence against women is central.

Yes every woman has been harassed, many assaulted. But every woman has also experienced invisible loss from moments she avoided harassment. She felt a space becoming unsafe, so she left, while men stayed on. And in leaving, she lost: opportunities, experiences, learning, promotions, even simply fun.

The Pope reminds me of a version of Catholicism I knew growing up as a young man attending anti-war and anti-death penalty protests, where I met elderly Catholics who shared their version of faith with me. I learned that Catholicism was about love and mercy for the weak, the condemned, and the poor.

Today, I see angry young men online LARPing as Catholics, often for the aesthetic. They celebrate strength and hate the weak. The use slurs against the disabled and fantasize about enacting Crusader violence against their enemies. I wish the Pope would speak directly on this.
