New policy: people who come into my mentions to scold me for how I engage with bad-faith users are getting blocked. Y’all clearly are looking for a different online experience than the one I provide, so I’ll just help you along to it.

AI bros, man. Not even once. What a deeply insecure, incurious group of people.
Here, you are retreating to childish nonsense rather than opening yourself up to gaining new understanding of a complex process outside your primary domain of expertise.

Why should anyone respect you? Do you treat every interaction as an opportunity to show dominance, or is it just me?

Has anyone coined the term AIncel? If not I’d like credit for that please, inspired by this dweeb.

chat, what do we call a man who keeps pressuring a woman for a video call after she has explained that she won't do that for safety reasons?
Great, and I will be clear, too: you are bad faith, and you're also quite stupid. Your arguments are hollow.

Your argumentative strategy relies on Bluesky (both async nature and follower sycophancy).

Be brave and hop on a phone call or video call. It's 2025, it's normal, be normal.

This is the funniest fucking thing I have ever seen.
I decided that you lack the spirit to be worth further engagement, so I had the conversation w/ Gemini 3 Pro, instead.

You can see it here: gemini.google.com/share/34668f...

They hide reasoning chains in public share URLs, so attaching a few screenshots to show ya.

Best of luck, Kathryn! <3

What she means is “I was comfortable being irresponsible when I thought I wouldn’t get caught, but I am uncomfortable explaining that irresponsibility to a critical audience.”

I can't even speak on how angry I am that we've spent years trying to get a biography of an important trans woman picked up by publishers but this ethics- and talent-free incurious child had the entire media and publishing world just throwing money and attention at her

Well this is a bit on the nose
Pantone’s 2026 color of the year is technically not a color at all — meet Cloud Dancer, the first-ever white shade to receive the designation from the world’s color authority.
Pantone makes a surprising choice for its 2026 color of the year

"Metacognitive processes are necessary to comply with Rule 11" is a phrase I expect litigators to start using as a diss on opposing counsel immediately

Our first project is a Litigant Portal, a people-first platform built to support self-represented litigants with guidance, forms, and e-filing tools.

Other areas we are looking at are tools for public defenders and the incarcerated.

This person is claiming that neither Alina Hanna nor Pat Bondi passed the bar exam. Both claims are false.

Sorry to be a broken record but it's nuts to me that the New York Times would write an entire article summarizing a court ruling and refuse to provide a link to said ruling. This is a disservice to readers. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/01/n...

Blocking the transmission of legislation is among the worst abuses of power by any Speaker in House history. It's become very common under Johnson.
