Today I am using Disney Genie™️, Disneyland Resort’s free itinerary and planner imbedded in the Disneyland Resort app to tell me what to do for this morning’s rope drop. I will follow its suggestions to the letter. Folks, I am excited. 🧵👇🏻

Yes to all of this, and it makes you feel old and stupid when you get angry at your technology and can’t figure out how to disable it.
If I had to bet on the main thing that has radicalized people against "ai," and I am talking about the way that branding is CURRENTLY BEING USED, not whatever specialized ML utility you may have found for it, it would be in apps and tech they already use being made worse and/or inoperable by it

Note the framing here:

It’s “Democrats have refused to fund” DHS and not “Republicans refused to prohibit face masks” or “the two parties could not agree on how to reform the agency.”

I started a course of prednisone yesterday because my eyelid was puffed up weirdly, and I must say that the drug makes you feel like you’re really getting a lot of shit done and firing on all cylinders when a actually you’re just walking around a lot more than usual

this is one of favorite things to do. Last summer my 17 year old and I saw a stage production of West Side Story and during intermission I said that Tony was Chopped and also Unc and she melted away into her chair with pure revulsion
if you're an older person who finds words like mogg and maxxing annoying, just starting using them. people over the age of 30 have the superpower to end trends by simply adopting them

We need to simplify the idea of speedy citizenship for immigrants. YES TO CITIZENSHIP, NO TO DEPORTATION etc
The extraordinary public backlash to Trump's ICE raids and mass deportations suggests it's time to rethink how information warfare and political persuasion work in the Trump era. Dems have an opening to reset the immigration debate if they act now.

New piece from me:
newrepublic.com/article/2059...
How the Democrats Can Play Offense on Immigration
Typically, Democrats run for the hills when immigration comes up. But as two blue-state governors are showing, the winning play is actually to confront ICE and MAGA xenophobia head on.

The fact that everything these companies do is for profit is fundamentally at odds with the goals of public health. This was true under Biden and has just gotten worse under this administration.

ALSO this is a testament to being consistent with social media. Flooding the zone with the bullshit so that the low engagement people catch glimpses.
New poll: In 2024, low-engagement voters went for Trump over Harris by 11 percentage points. But now they disapprove of the way he's handling the presidency by 13. They have moved 25 points against Trump — 2x as large as the shift for high-knowledge voters www.gelliottmorris.com/p/trump-lost...
Trump has lost the voters who weren’t paying attention in 2024
The least-engaged Americans have swung 25 points against him since 2024 — about twice the shift among everyone else. Trump has flattened the engagement gap.

...and evangelicals and others in high control religions are pretty much trained from birth to live in a hierarchy that keeps them near the bottom, so life becomes about clawing your way up to glory.
One more quick thread, and then I'm getting out of here to walk my dog in the sun.

I think a lot about the authoritarian personality. I won't start going on about that because this thread would last forever, but I just want to say one thing about it.

When GWB left office, his rating was at 34 or so. The main reason I think Trump's remains higher is because since W was in office, the right wing consolidated their media and effectively cut off their voters from absorbing anything else.
