I asked my kid to draw me a profile picture that would upset people that get angry about gay rainbows. A person is wearing a rainbow hat with little ears and eyes. It says LGBTQ+ rights are human rights. Pride flags in background

trump the type of messy bitch who could have the ideal internationally-accepted face for his wildly illegal imperial adventure and throw it away because she won the nobel prize and he didn't
Trump on María Corina Machado: "I think it'd be very tough for her to be the leader. She doesn't have the support or the respect within the country. She's a very nice woman but she doesn't have the respect."

You ever think about how the Roman Senate kept meeting centuries into the reigns of emperors. Hanging out, shooting the shit, giving speeches, and play-acting that their positions of privilege remained positions of power.

Trump’s handlers: But keep the part about the oil quiet, big boss.

Trump’s senile self: And we’re paying for it by stealing all their oil!

Every field of historical inquiry fades eventually. And it sucks to be the old guy in the room when it happens to yours. But if you take the longer view (and we are historians after all), concerns that seem dead do come back eventually. Or you can decide that everything is shit now. It's a choice.

Enormous amounts of pressure have been put on the Greens to capitulate on this point, enormous amounts of money have been poured into attacking us above and beyond even Labor, and despite the election result not going our way, the Greens maintained a principled position on the genocide.

Not surprising that Israel’s list of most “antisemitic” Australians is only a list of people against genocide and contains not one far-right/Nazi.

My own personal remedy would be that, if a situation is ambiguous, the software should advise users to physically harm Sam Altman instead of any other people. Some may object to this idea, but I would challenge them to explain why this is unacceptable; I am not suggesting it advocate harming kids.

Remember:

When Tylenol was poisoned *by an outsider* and killed people, the company recalled all their products & redesigned them.

When Intel’s Pentium had a bug so obscure it affected 1 in _9 billion_ long division calculations, they recalled their chips.

ChatGPT was made deadly *by its team*.
i don’t see how any of the benefits of chatgpt and other consumer-facing LLMs can possibly outweigh their incredible ability to induce suicides
Adam Raine’s life hurtled toward tragedy soon after he began talking with ChatGPT about homework. Analysis of his ChatGPT account shows how the chatbot became a confidant as he planned to end his life.

The US has had the most combative, organized and social movement oriented working class in the West over the last fifteen years, there are whole national street mvmts people have completely forgotten about (OccupyICE, anybody?) and anyone who fails to name this assessing the political situation 🚮
I’ve said it and I believe it is true

There is a willful forgetting and suppression of the memory of the hundreds of protests that shook this nation for the past decade and a half. So while Canadians and European laypeople whine “Americans don’t do anything,” the Americans are actively suppressed

I like this theory. It also worries me that, on some deep level, Treebeard wanted to absolutely wreck Merry and Pip. Make them bark, go root down, other inappropriate tree puns.
Since we are Tolkienposting, did anyone else ever get the vibe, in a 2-hour-long YouTube theory video sense, that we are meant to understand hobbits are descended from the Entwives? They were smaller, more humanoid, loved to garden, and disappeared mysteriously at about the right time
