This is in southeast Michigan so if you’re on here using your government name and there’s a chance you get called to the jury don’t say or do anything that might come in voir dire to suggest you might nullify

Easy. The past sucked, and people in the past were frequently evil. If you were alive in 1858 or 1930 or 1939 or even 1955 it might have been hard to imagine the social progress we now take for granted. There probably seemed no path out due to the wickedness of men. Yet, somehow, we improved.

There are a lot of jobs that are 1.) very hard to do 2.) if you took a video of a person doing that job, they are just sort of fiddling around all day.

it feels like so much discourse could be wrapped up if we just well and truly got it through our heads that we live in a highly-educated specialist economy by definition nobody knows anything about 90% of it

This. It has always been this. A sitting American president did this. And because he did this, he should have been convicted and put behind bars. And the fact that we never held him accountable for these crimes will forever stain this country. And we may never recover from it.👇

Also reminder the best help for food pantries, or people struggling or any 'need' is cold hard cash. Always. Always always always. Food pantries can make that money stretch MUCH BETTER THAN YOU CAN, and it'll go to their most urgent needs. I mean, the other stuff is great too but cash is king

i worry that men think being A Good Guy is dramatically and heroically intervening on behalf of an endangered woman and then being publicly rewarded on a grand scale when actually being A Good Guy is just usually saying, “hey man that’s not funny” or “wow that’s fucked up” and there is no reward

Bigots learn from the past better than anyone So long as they do it quickly & quietly, nobody will notice that they've brought back segregation www.npr.org/sections/sho...

'Segregated facilities' are no longer explicitly banned in federal contracts
The Trump administration cut a clause from federal contracting rules that had been on the books since the 1960s: Companies are no longer explicitly prohibited from having segregated facilities.

Technology enthusiasts severely overestimate the average person’s desire or willingness or capacity to build and use AI agents. I understand some work roles that could mandate or encourage it but that is no way a tech revolution. Agents are best for structured, clearly delineated tasks.

When bathroom bills failed, they didn’t give up; they kept throwing more specious trial balloons at the wall until they found one that stuck: “just asking questions” about girls sports. I hope the people who responded in good faith understand what they enabled.

And to be honest, though the systems are so complex you can never prove causation, the fact that our descent into the dumbest politics follows on four decades of systematic, institutional disinvestment from the liberal arts seems almost too on the nose and yet here we are.

The funny thing, you'll get the cynics rushing in to say, "well, obviously no one believes that liberal arts produce better leaders or citizens" - a statement which is obviously wrong; what *makes* the liberal arts is that they were the learning elites sought out for their children, for centuries.

This strikes me is a common misunderstanding of the argument for humanities education, which is not that it serves as some sort of individual inoculation, but rather than it produces a citizenry more capable of self-governance when distributed widely, especially for decision-makers of every kind.

A society whose numbers lack a body of common experience and common knowledge is a society without a fundamental culture; it tends to disintegrate into a mere aggregation of individuals.

This, from Dennett, I wish I'd taken to heart earlier in my life. www.themarginalian.org/2014/03/28/d...
How to compose a successful critical commentary:

1 You should attempt to re-express your target’s position so clearly, vividly, and fairly that your target says, “Thanks, I wish I’d thought of putting it that way.”
2 You should list any points of agreement (especially if they are not matters of general or widespread agreement).
3 You should mention anything you have learned from your target.
4 Only then are you permitted to say so much as a word of rebuttal or criticism.

“At least six babies in Pennsylvania have been born infected with measles, with two so sick they had to be admitted to intensive care.” H/t @ameshaa.bsky.social
nbcnews.com
America had wiped out measles. Now babies are infected at birth.
Congenital measles has rarely been seen in the U.S. That’s changing as vaccination declines and more pregnant women become infected.
