I think Mamdani getting trump to agree to fund New York while making no concessions in return was good.

I think Harris getting Cheney to denounce trump without offering concessions in return was good.

like, I feel like when you win you should take the win.

like, I very much am on board with "don't compromise with the fascists" but if the fascists say, "you know you're right about everything" you're allowed to amplify that as a way to sow dissension and confusion among other fascists.

Yep, this!

High-quality masking slows transmission because the virus has fewer hosts to jump to for viral replication. It’s basic science, but people forget how effective it still is.

"How dare you tell them to disobey illegal orders! That's the kind of orders WE were gonna give them, but conveniently, not the kind you were gonna give them! Come and see the politicization inherent in the Democratic Party! Help, help, we're being oppressed!"

A state scores a higher level of HDI when the lifespan is higher, the education level is higher, and the gross national income GNI (PPP) per capita is higher.

Darker color means higher score.
Most red states suck.

X rolled out a new feature overnight showing where accounts are based. This network of “Trump-supporting independent women” that claimed to be “real Americans” are based in Thailand.

The photos were stolen from European models & posts pushed pro-Trump lines while targeting Islam and LGBTQ people.

It's not just "consumer smart" it reduces environmental waste, key materials are often mined in slave conditions. The whole tenor of the article is wrong - why is the economy so dependent on us engaging in mass waste?

I love whenever an LLM inadvertently exposes the pre-prompt instruction text that they’ve baked into the software, because it puts the lie to this whole idea. They’ll be like “we made this model more conservative!” and the literal way they did it was to go “hey bot, be more conservative plz thx”

Hilariously (in the lolsob sort of way), Australia has concluded their social media ban law cannot actually be used to ban underage Australians from Roblox because it's not a social media site
Me: Australia's social media ban for under 16s is a deeply terrible idea and is going to make a lot of problems much worse

Also me: we should ban Roblox for all ages
Oh, God, this is one of those "where do I even start" things, because Roblox is, like, *fractally* fucked. They are terrible at content moderation. A lot of the games are rated incorrectly, so kids can encounter graphic content (sex or violence) out of nowhere --

An incredible @runforsomething.net alum in Utah who has served the community and is ready to fight for them. Let’s goooo
We can’t keep doing politics as usual. Utahns struggle to pay for housing while Trump & the GOP Congress play games with our healthcare & victimize our communities. It’s time for Democrats who will stand up & speak truth to power. That’s why I’m running for Congress.

Just a friendly reminder as we go into the holidays:

Folks don't have to explain to you why they don't drink.

If you offer them a drink and they decline, don't ask them why. It's not your business.

Just offer them something without alcohol to drink instead. And move on.

Not only are X users marinating in a disinformation bubble, but viewing the posts of bots on X actively contributes American funds to overseas bot farms because of its financial reward system.
If you’re a journalist who’s still on Twitter, from now on in your writing you have to replace “the American people want” with “troll bots in Eastern Europe demand”

Being there makes your judgment suspect. I don’t care how savvy you think you are, you’re marinating in a disinformation campaign.

Make a spreadsheet. List cooking times (and resting for protein), device (oven, crock pot, stove top, smoker, grill, etc) and temperatures. Work backwards from when dinner is ready. Project manage this fucker.
most people just aren’t going to magically know how to juggle all those dishes just because it’s a holiday. there’s no shame in doing a couple of things really well

I trust this man.
I will not look this up.
I'm sure I'll eventually find out, but it's in my power to delay it.
I've done it before.
I've even been able to avoid this sort of thing completely.

I know not to look. 😌💅

something really fun about Trump instantly succumbing to Mamdani’s dazzling charisma is how miserable it probably made Andrew Cuomo to see those pictures 🥰

It's like Mamdani pushed his shopping cart up and down the aisles of Trump's mind and loaded up on stuff to bring back to his city. Protecting his city from ICE even before he takes office is huge (I mean, obviously Trump is a man of his word salad, but it was worth a try; see link below).
Laura Loomer and a lot of MAGA are in shambles, Trump says he loves Mamdani now and will be cheering for him. Will consider their conversation about ICE and supports his housing plan for low income families. Also stated that he’d happily live in New York with him as mayor and that he’s a good guy.
