The "AI" responses that Google gives about me and my work are consistently error-prone, which I know because I am me. If I know Google's "AI" responses give incorrect answers about things I know about, I can't trust it to give correct answers about things I don't know. So, no, I don't use it.

Most of the power authoritarians have is freely given. We should not comply with them in advance. Trump is far weaker than he looks. So is the GOP. We should draw them out, drain them at every opportunity, and fight for people’s wellbeing at every turn. We have been sent here to fight for people.

My main take away from the excellent revolutions podcast is so many of them start when rich people get tired of following the rules set in place to stop the slaughter of rich people because of the previous revolution.

ER doc here! This is a lie. Wait times are up because the American healthcare system is an unsustainable business model and a for-profit national healthcare system just doesn’t work. These problems will continue to get worse until we change that system. It literally has nothing to do with immigrants

I wish Ezra would read his colleague @jamellebouie.net. Because he keeps making a point the centrist pundit class ignores: Trump barely won, and even then, only by convincing a sliver of low info morons to back him. Then he immediately abandoned those swing voters. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/01/o...

It seems to me that the Big Beautiful Top Brass military meeting probably just pissed off the top brass & made them that much less amenable to doing whatever sort of fascist overreach Miller decides to try and use them for in the future. If I were at that meeting I'd sure be feeling petty right now

An important thing to understand about Trump's base is that they believed our military occupations in Iraq and Afghanistan were mistakes, but they also thought military occupations in Chicago, LA, Portland, and DC were very legal and very cool.

The endgame for all of this is constructing a military that will obey orders when ordered to fire on citizens. That's the throughline to half of what Trump is doing.

We've all been dragged into an 8 AM meeting like this where senior leadership wants to tell you their "vision" while you give your co-workers massive side eye in the audience over what they say vs. what they do. This meeting may generate levels of sympathy for the military not seen since 9/11.

It's genuinely funny that Guillermo del Toro basically makes movies about how humans are the real monsters all the time but then took a short break to make a movie that went "Actually the monsters ARE monsters and we should PUNCH THEM IN THE FACE WITH GIANT ROBOTS!" and it rules

This Galaxy Quest fan theory makes a lot of sense.
Tumblr post from soft-october-night

The real issue between Tim Allen's Jason and Alan Rickman's Alexander in Galaxy Quest was that Jason was blissfully unaware of any of the fanfic people had written about their two characters while Alexander had been asked in detail about some of the finer points of Mak'tar "biology" at every con since the 80s

Once again, the moderate position is for ICE to be abolished and Border Patrol to be gutted, and massive civil rights prosecutions leading to prison time. Anybody running on anything less is kicking the can down the road.

There are rumors that they bent the knee because Disney was going to blackout football until they caved. I think the affiliates got spooked because people were calling up advertisers and saying they wouldn't support businesses on these stations and local ad buys started getting pulled.
