Everyone demanding Senator Schmidtt apologize to Jack Smith are again setting the bar too low. They should be demanding his resignation from the Judiciary Committe. He's unfit to serve Pound the table. Make some noise. Turn this into a multi-day story

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

the whole 'i dont like AI but THIS i can get behind' when its a story about someone pounding a trex or a minotaur is such a bad take. camp is art. real legitimate art. honestly kind of astonished to see anti-AI folks just ignoring their stated values because someones AI erotica cover made them laugh

i love how strongly anti-AI young buckaroos are, and the creative community is, and basically anyone who knows anything about it. but dang i wish folks brought that kind of fight to the world of erotica. such a sneaky reveal of how those who CLAIM to care actually dont see erotica as 'real art'

Meanwhile in the US companies are reducing or canceling EV truck fleet buys and automakers are reducing planned models and production, because apparently nobody in business ever learns about markets and planning, much less lessons about volatility.

Of course I agree with Kevin as we limp along at CUNY hobbled by decades of under-funding. It hasn't been costless. I am not feeling sanguine given the Dems even in blue states have decided public higher ed = vocational training. But will I stop pushing the Dems on it? No.

Also important to note that it's not completely surprising to see a poll with Collins +3 if the race is really Jackson +3(ish), that's how polling and the distribution of errors works.

Your semi-regular reminder that Penguins don't exist - not anymore, at least - but Penguins looked enough like Penguins that we also called them Penguins.

The GOP is an opposition party even when it's in power, the idea that they are the perpetual underdog is central to their internal mythology and can't be disturbed by facts or the results of elections. It's also why they're bad at, you know, governing.

I love the optimism about Dems winning in November - I share it! And: I'm a tiny bit nervous that winning will free folks of the urgency to fix deeper structural problems in our party that will fuck us in the long-haul if we don't grapple with them.

Stock Buybacks are market manipulation and nothing more. Nvidia, the company, gains nothing material from this. Their increased stock price may let them borrow more readily, but that doesn't mean they are good for the debt. This is all about extracting money for shareholders.

“Why shouldn’t I custom-generate all of my child’s media?” Because the point of children’s literature, music, art, and movies is not to optimize leisure time, it is to provide your children with cultural, emotional, societal, and epistemic touch points via which they can relate to the wider world.
