In reality, despite the manner of his death, Kirk was a hate monger, an absolutely vicious misogynist, and a conspirator against American democracy. Let’s not sell tickets to his “spiritual journey.”

The New York Times @nytimes.com · Sep 22

Charlie Kirk's memorial service canonized him as the hero and motivational force of the new Christian right, a movement that Kirk himself both created and reflected. Here's a look at his spiritual journey.

Behind Charlie Kirk’s Spiritual Journey That Fused Christianity and Politics

Sunday’s memorial showcased how Mr. Kirk’s experience dovetailed with the broader story of American evangelicalism over the past decade.

Quasar is hyper-aware when I don’t feel well, right on top of me. But she does not enter bathrooms. Except I was in a hot bath scrolling TikTok and a meowing kitten came on. I guess Quasar thought the kitten meow was me doing a distress call because she flew in and tried to pull me from the bath.

Lowering the flags on 9/11 at the Guantanamo Bay McDonald's for Charlie Kirk is the most dril tweet thing that's ever happened

Carol Rosenberg @carolrosenbergnyt.bsky.social · Sep 11

The flags were lowered last night around the base by order of President Trump after the killing of Charlie Kirk and will stay at half-staff on this U.S. outpost in southeast Cuba until sunset on Sunday.

🌿☕ Good Morning☀️

💐Hollyhocks💐

Holly derives from holy (as in Holy Land) ⚔️ Christian Crusaders are thought to have encountered them in their crusades, and are thought to have used them to make a salve to treat the Crusaders' horses hind legs or 'hocks'

Hence the portmanteau: Hollyhock 🐎🌿

I haven't really been around this summer, so please share things that are going on with you that I may have missed!
Did you get a new job? Eat a really good cheeseburger? Read a fantastic book? Go rollerblading for the first time since you were 12? Take an art class? Nap in the sun every day?

I agree with Gabrielle Giffords. Violence like this is never appropriate.

Acts of political violence aren’t acceptable. Non-political school shootings aren’t acceptable. Sacking the legislature isn’t acceptable. Military occupation of peaceful American cities isn’t acceptable. Abductions conducted in courthouse hallways by masked agents of the state aren’t acceptable.

BREAKING: By an apparent 6–3 vote, the Supreme Court halts an injunction that had prevented immigration agents from racially profiling Latinos in central California.

Sotomayor, dissenting, says the decision is "unconscionably irreconcilable with our nation's constitutional guarantees."

Looking at hockey tickets and shocked at the resale price: "Fuck you!"
My toddler coming in from the other room: "Mommy, what happened?"
Me: "I was just looking at getting tickets for me and Daddy to go to this hockey game and they're so expensive!"

AI breaking the industries it’s supposed to ‘innovate’ is a feature, not a bug

Hypervisible @hypervisible.blacksky.app · Aug 12

“The AI in the study probably prompted doctors to become over-reliant on its recommendations, ‘leading to clinicians becoming less motivated, less focused, and less responsible when making cognitive decisions without AI assistance,’ the scientists said in the paper.”

AI Eroded Doctors’ Ability to Spot Cancer Within Months in Study

Artificial intelligence, touted for its potential to transform medicine, led to some doctors losing skills after just a few months in a new study.
