They need to go back to what made them popular with families years ago. The McDonald’s in my town is now just a sterile gray corporate space without the ability to even pour your own drink.

Not sure I'd want to be President Ossoff or AOC or whoever when, in 2029, they have to explain that yes, they are massively raising taxes but that no, they're not using it for new services, they have to use it to get back to a primary surplus to avoid financial collapse.

The post-information social condition is revealed by the age of AI through the way that all of the data and models in the world can’t actually convince people with power to make decisions that would actually save all of our lives, but to in fact do the opposite.

So he and Trump get to decide what a real news organization acts like? Huh. Doesn’t sound very First Amendment-y to me.

Article paywalled so here’s what he said: "First, we could lose control of the future of AI.” "Second, we could end up in a world with too much concentration of power. If…AI is used by one person or company to impress their worldview onto everyone else, the results could be extremely dystopian."

Please don't overreact to Roberts Court decision on the contemplated USPS ballot moves They simply held that the injunction came too early in the process, before there was a final rule👇 Now we HAVE a final rule & we will litigate it. I'm as confident in our arguments here as in any of our cases!

Just for the record: he absolutely does not have a right to do this, and if he tries, there will be immediate court hearings that will stop him from doing it. And he absolutely can't do it nationwide, in 175,000 precincts governed by different county, state and local laws.

Axios writer: I melted my brain with AI. Not only can I no longer read, but I don't even understand the purpose of reading anymore. Here's how you can also do this. www.axios.com/2026/08/11/r...

Axios: AI has become my reading buddy as I've plowed through my summer book list, helping me keep track of plots and characters, unpack themes, and make sense of wordy, old prose.

Why it matters: The way many of us actually read books — a few pages before bed, a chapter at the beach, another on a plane — makes it easy to lose the thread. AI can help you pick it back up without starting over.
📖 I really got into using AI while reading James Fenimore Cooper's "The Last of the Mohicans." The text was far too dense for casual vacation reading. My first prompt asked:

"I'd like a guide as I read The Last of the Mohicans who can help me understand what I've read and where the story is, without giving spoilers or getting ahead of my progress. Can you do this, chapter by chapter?"
The robot agreed: "Cooper's sentences are long and his diction is archaic."

A state that redraws its legislative maps before every election to maximize advantage for the incumbent party is not a democracy or a republic and in any case obviously violates the guarantee clause, among many others. No country does this. No country ever thought of doing this. It is a total farce.

Worth noting that Southern Baptists don’t recognize the religious authority of Pope, or believe in the legitimacy of the Catholic Church. They don’t even think Catholics are “saved.” Mike has no clue what the Church teaches regarding war, and he wouldn’t agree with it even if he did.
