Putin claims Russia allegedly has no plans to fight Europe, Baltics included, but says Russian speakers’ rights are violated in Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia and Moscow knows how to respond under "international law". But he seems to forget he said the same about Ukraine before the aggression.

3 panel comic titled “Logging into Bluesky”

Panel 1: 
A Pink Guy bursts into Bluesky wearing a t-shirt that says “Fun”. His little face looks so happy.

Panel 2: 
Six Bluesky users turn to look at the Pink Guy. They all look dour and angry because they have been overdosing on the discourse. Having the current state of the world mainlined into their veins for 22 hours a day has left them real grumpy.

Panel 3:
Pink Guy slowly removes his t-shirt and quietly says “sorry”. He won’t soon forget that Bluesky is the home of Serious Discussion. If he wants “Fun” maybe he should log into the Barney the Dinosaur forums.

The thing about the right is, they want to be able to attack their opponents as if politics were an existential battle of good versus evil they are on the right side of, but demand to be treated by them as if politics were a good faith disagreement among gentlemen about optimising the tax code.

As public opinion turns, reports from within Mount Doom suggest Orc Lieutenant Gothmog is to be relieved of command and withdrawn from Gondor back to Minas Morgul where he is expected to soon retire. Sauron hopes this ends the matter and the Fellowship will now go home and stop blowing whistles.

"European civilisation," btw, is an utterly meaningless phrase until the Schuman Declaration. No real Europe existed until then, that was the first time something like "Europe" was given meaningful political and therefore cultural form.

"I have been teaching classes on genocide for a quarter of a century. I can recognize one when I see one." Omar Bartov, professor of Holocaust and genocide studies at Brown University. archive.ph/0dpn2
My inescapable conclusion has become that Israel is committing genocide against the Palestinian people. Having grown up in a Zionist home, lived the first half of my life in Israel, served in the I.D.F. as a soldier and officer and spent most of my career researching and writing on war crimes and the Holocaust, this was a painful conclusion to reach, and one that I resisted as long as I could. But I have been teaching classes on genocide for a quarter of a century. I can recognize one when I see one.

This is not just my conclusion. A growing number of experts in genocide studies and international law have concluded that Israel’s actions in Gaza can only be defined as genocide.

Here’s the bottom line for what’s going on with Grok - if the owner of the website is putting his thumb on the scale hard enough for the chatbot to turn into Goebbels, you should be deeply concerned about what he’s doing to the algorithm that you can’t so easily see, and what it’s doing to you

🧵 I argue that we can understand the functioning of democracy through 3 core ideals, verification, deliberation and accountability. While no democracy fully achieves those ideals, this thread explains how MAGA destroys all three and inevitably results in democratic regression into authoritarianism.

“I agree with Nick.” Kill the industry, you say? That sounds tough for that industry. Which industry was that again? Oh. The stealing industry? Maybe killing that industry wouldn’t be such a bad thing? Considering it’s kind of a bad industry. Unlike the other one, which it’s currently killing.

apparently Elon's gotten so mad about Grok not answering questions about Afrikaners the way he wants, xAI's now somehow managed to put it into some kind of hyper-Afriforum mode where it thinks every question is about farm murders or the song "Kill the Boer"
Keir Starmer: I've already returned over 24,000 people with no right to be here. And I won't stop there.

twitter user: @grok Is this post misleading?

Grok: The claim of white genocide in South Africa is highly debated.  Some evidence, like reports of farm attacks and political rhetoric, suggests violence against white farmers...a user asks Grok to translate Chinese text on a photo, and it responds with a translation of "Kill the Boer" into Urdua user asks if something shown in a video is an effective way to clear sinuses, and Grok says the query is unrelated to "the provided analysis on white genocide in South Africa"
