I recognize that this might make us seem like less “objective” journalists, but we have a responsibility as Americans. I, also, don’t really give a shit anymore. And neither does my team. We're joining the general strike tomorrow.

I hope when the AI bubble finally bursts and there is an 11 hour bailout bill that barely half the republicans support, the progressive wing of the democratic party has a list of demands that make Treaty of Brest-Litovsk look evenhanded and reasonable

Normally I would be pretty bearish on new social networks and particularly on those that are competing against juggernauts with all the network effects but Oracle people just took over tiktok so maybe skylight.social has a shot

TERF shit aside, the worldview of Harry Potter involved making fun of a primary character when they picked up the struggle to abolish the literal in-universe (widely accepted and normalized!) system of chattel slavery
In @nytopinion.nytimes.com
Younger generations “have fallen out of love with Harry Potter because they have fallen out of love with the worldview the series represents,” writes Louise Perry. “Which is to say that young people have fallen out of love with liberalism.”

It is going to be equally incredibly funny and insanely cringe to watch this guy try to pick up the mantle when It Happens.
JD Vance in Minneapolis: "The guys behind me are doing an incredible job, and frankly, a lot of the media is lying about the job they do every single day. That doesn't mean that there aren't occasionally stories and videos out there that suggest they aren't doing everything right."

By now, asteroid 2026 Dreadstone has impacted the Indian Ocean, sparking a firestorm not seen on this planet since the K–Pg Extinction Event. Most people just want to be with their families. Here are three ways effective business leaders can leverage targeted KPIs to turn tragedy 😔 into triumph 💪

I hate it when my family argues about politics at Thanksgiving. My Independent Dad is yelling at my Covenanter cousin for allying with the king while my Fifth Monarchist uncle keeps making cryptic pronouncements about the Book of Daniel, and here I am, a Leveller.

the genAI bubble relies on you conflating the genuinely tremendous potential of using machine learning for e.g. image recognition in radiotherapy, protein folding, simulations in power systems etc with the child abuse image generators and schizophrenic delusions generators

Because of the timing, it will be very difficult to convince people this film wasn’t the result of some quantity of AI slop
The only Star Wars opinion about which I am dogmatic is that The Rise of Skywalker is the worst movie in the franchise & also the worst movie ever made. I've never hated a piece of art more.
i would push rogue one down and bring solo and the last jedi up. i’d also place attack of the clones at the bottom.
