what a weird time to *break with your party* and *vote with the president* on *the losing side* when you're *leaving office*.
Only really makes sense if he's hoping to run as a Republican at some point down the line, which also seems dumb given the national mood

what if, due to AI, in a couple of years the only people who have jobs are podcasters? that brings us to the obvious question: how are the rest of you going to get the money to pay for my podcasts? that's something you all need to be thinking about because i will not change my lifestyle.
I understand why people are exhausted by AI hype, and why those of us squarely in the corner of "human dignity uber alles" see AI doomerism as self-serving hype, but I *really* think people on the left broadly need to start thinking seriously about the possibiltiy of the hype being...true.

I I know New York politics we're a month out from Hochul announcing she's relocating the Statue of Liberty to Utica
It's honestly a little unsettling to see a New York mayor and New York governor not at each other's throats.
I'm endorsing Gov. @KathyHochul because she's someone willing to engage in honest dialogue that delivers results.
Along with the movement that powered our campaign, it's how we secured a historic agreement on childcare. And we're just getting started.
