Man this Showgirl era is bland. I feel like Taylor Swift is at her best when she gives herself space to let her mind wander and ruminate (the pandemic/long pond studio albums). These quick trips to Sweden to churn out a bunch of tracks with MM & Shellback feel so rushed and uninspired in comparison

We've got a Muslim man running the most multicultural city in the world and making space for all the people in it. That's what cultural victory over fundamentalism looks like, it's a shame that there's a part of the population that couldn't identify a cultural victory if it slapped them in the face.

AI should not be anything more than a tool, that is, a specific program designed for a specific purpose. What is gen AI's purpose? To replace humans, in the best case scenario our jobs, worst case, our existence.

It's profoundly saddening to read that AP will no longer be assigning or running book reviews because readers don't engage with them enough and they take too much effort to plan and assign. People complain about critics as gatekeepers; wait until all that's left is marketing.

neither the president of the united states nor the secretary of hhs has said one word about today’s attack on a federal agency’s headquarters, which killed a police officer. and it’s probably better that way, but still shameful and rotten nonetheless.

A mob of Hasidic men in Brooklyn chase down a woman who came to protest Ben-Gvir. This sort of reaction has become normalized in NYC and LA, where violence against protestors has spiked enormously since October 7th. This largely isn't covered or addressed by media, despite how widespread it is.

one of the world's top cancer scientists, who works for Harvard, is at risk of deportation to Russia where she might be killed for criticizing Putin, because she allegedly failed to disclose carrying frog embryos at the border. it's upending American medical research: prospect.org/health/2025-...
Until now. For instance, the cancer scientist Kseniia Petrova, a Russian immigrant who worked at Harvard’s renowned Kirschner Lab, has been in a Louisiana ICE prison for two months now, and is facing deportation to Russia because she allegedly lied to a border control officer about carrying frog embryos for research purposes. Not only is this likely false—she told NBC News that she did tell the officers the truth—but the usual penalty for such a piddling violation is a $500 fine, knocked down to $50 for a first offense. Instead, ICE revoked her J-1 visa and threw her in prison pending a hearing to deport her back to Russia, where she might easily end up in prison or dead for criticizing the Putin regime.

Petrova is not just any cancer scientist—she is perhaps the world’s top expert on analyzing the images produced by a new cutting-edge, ultra-specialized microscope that is being developed to diagnose cancer cases. Leon Peshkin, Petrova’s manager, told NBC that the task “requires a unique set of skills because you have to both be able to work as an embryologist and do applied math, modeling, data analysis and bioinformatics—all in one package.” Nobody else in the lab could do what she does, he added.
