I think this is the right call. It should be banned in primary and secondary school. We just can't risk it.

This is why I actually support NYC’s one-year moratorium on AI use in schools — there simply hasn’t been time to figure out what a good policy would look like, and a single year out of 12 without AI education isn’t gonna significantly harm students.

NYC moves to spend nearly $9M of gender-affirming care fund for minors
The funding is part of a $15 million investment announced in June as major hospitals retreated from providing such care.

"The conservative project called for the eradication of transgenderism from public life entirely; it never said 'but we'll stop if trans people concede somewhat.'" www.liberalcurrents.com/concede-noth...
Concede Nothing

Trans people are who we say we are, and we will fight and organize on those grounds.

The aim of the Republican Party is to delegitimize and dismantle the United States government in order to resegregate, restore patriarchy, privatize and plunder the states they control.

If you use AI regularly, I do think you owe it to yourself to occasionally try to do things without AI to make sure you still know how to do them. And to spend time reading and exercising your brain so you don’t forget how to think without these tools

Bertrand Russell, one of the mathematicians associated with the crisis of foundations in mathematics in the early 20th century. He tried to co-write a book defining all math and logic from first principles, until Gödel fucked it up for everybody.

I'm not exaggerating when I say that this is the best description of my ideology I've ever read. From "Liberalism Did Not Fail, Conservatism Did" by @polphilpod.bsky.social. www.liberalcurrents.com/liberalism-d...
If we are entering a bipolar world, that simplifies our strategy considerably: We must unite our own coalition and oppose the enemy one. We are in a fight across countries, across institutions, and across all levels of society. War must be waged on all fronts. There is no point trying to find a middle ground with fascism; rather we should aim for positions that are broadly acceptable to everyone in the liberal team.

this is so often ignored by cis people debating amongst themselves about if trans people are a little *too* touchy. Most of you don't know what it's like to have your entire existence politicized and weaponized or what toll it takes on us.

What everyone has to prepare for is the constitutional crisis to accelerate if the Democrats take the House and the Senate. Vought has been allowed by the Republicans to act with impunity, so have he will continue to ignore Congress. This is why you have to impeach him immediately.

The fact that there is a social stigma around being a vegan is frankly embarrassing for us as a society. At absolutely worst, veganism should be accepted as a perfectly valid lifestyle choice in a liberal society, and imo it should be seen much more positively than that

Again, <only Republicans> ever get to talk like this. If a single municipal level Democrat ever did, it would be a national outrage &spark a wave of “civility” discourse, & op-eds about how Dems must Respect Real Folkz & talk across difference. Democracy is incompatible with this double standard.

“how do we win back trump voters in 2026” we don’t. we create an environment where admitting to voting for trump is so socially embarrassing as to render them completely inert. you don’t “win back” trump voters. you demoralize them into staying home. you make it a dunce cap

Andy Beshear has an entire chapter in his new book about backing the LGBTQ community and it's worth a read. He talks about how the anti-trans ads were tested in KY during his election and how vetoing anti-trans legislation didn't hurt his reelection campaign.
However the anti-trans ads had less to do with Kentucky and more to do with the fact that we were in an election. Terry Schilling, the head of the APP, decided to test the ads in our election to determine whether or not the issue could win votes for the Republican Party. Earlier in the summer of 2019, Scholling had partnered with a behavioral science firm to try to find a wedge issue that resonated with suburban voters. That's right. The anti-trans ads did not come out of some firmly held conviction but was a purely political stance. Their research landed on trans athletes, specifically trans women, competing in women's sports. They tested their theory in the 2019 Kentucky gubernatorial general election. Although I won, APP considered their test successful, because their research showed the ads delivered thirteen thousand votes for Trump Lite, which made the race tighter than anticipated.You might hask how, in this political climate, I was reelected after vetoing the anti-trans bill. Because people respect authentic faith. The day I vetoed it, I explained my why. I said I believe all children are children of God and that I don't want people picking on these kids. I then countered their anti-trans ads with commercials talking about good jobs, healthcare, roads and bridges, public education, and public safety. The result? The biggest win of my career. So don't tell me the Democratic Party should stop fighting for the rights of all people. Just explain your authentic why, and then get back to focusing on issues that touch all our lives on a daily basis.

We really need to do more to raise the salience about the partisan nature of jobs like “car dealer” and “chiropractor” the same way conservatives have done to teachers and scientists. Dem elites need to do more to signal to their base that small business tyrants are their enemies.
