In a trial commissioned by OpenAI, it demonstrated a 23x improvement in "stand in wonder" behavior - more than thirteen cardinals, four bishops, and a Tibetan Buddhist monk combined

1) genuine life changing moment of my early 20s was realizing I actually didn't have to do this at all. tell the youths

2) I feel like there's a class discussion to be had around the stakes of this kind of decision though
So many men go through life like that. You can play poker because it's right-coded, you can't enjoy fruity alcoholic drinks because they're women-coded, you can't lick an ice cream cone because it's gay-coded. All day, every day, choosing and judging things based on coding for narrow norms.

I remember in the first term the typical thing was to hang out in the residence all morning calling into Fox News, and then maybe in the afternoon he had 'many phone calls, many meetings'.
“..Trump in his second term has started scheduled events in the afternoon on average, at 12:08 p.m. .. The number of Mr. Trump’s total official appearances has decreased by 39 percent.”

With the two institutions involved, I got to imagine there's a conversation at some level that goes 'Leads? Leads?! Yeah they put 3 new detectives on the case. They got us working in shifts!'
MS NOW confirms: The FBI is working with Capitol Police to schedule interviews with the six Democratic lawmakers who urged service members to refuse to comply with illegal orders.

Commundidad De La Perla, the small neighborhood squeezed between the ocean and the walls of Old San Juan. If I understood the tour guide correctly, this is where Luis Fonzi and Daddy Yankee wrote Despacitio and filmed the video.

National columnists just being boomer conspiracy theorists is so fucking grim.

-That- explains How We Got Here better than anything that happened in any book depositories.
My first political memory - exactly 62 years ago right now, a 4-year-old boy trying to understand his mom's tears - is still the biggest event in my lifetime. We still (IMO) don't *really* know who killed JFK, but we know the public's trust was shattered. It's a straight line to today's mess

what I think Mamdani's play was: act like this is a normal political situation, *because unlike establishment Democrats, he is already perceived as highly hostile to the regime and therefore has trust to spend with anti-Trump diehards*, and appeal to Trump for mercy while maintaining dignity

One day I woke up and decided I wanted to do a stop motion animation. So I animated a simple run cycle, printed each frame and stuck them around my city ✨️
(Which btw, I felt super guilty about)

you will never understand politics if you cannot accept that *some people want bad things*. not because they've been tricked, not because Capital has manipulated them, because they *have bad values*

We can even see this in their fondness for Maoism, Leninist & vulgar anarchist ideology, as these ideological movements have comfortably and decisively failed with well-studied consequences for ordinary people when attempted, yet retain a radical cultural cache that flatters the die-hard adherent.

the thing about cars is people have no respect for what cars can actually do in terms of damage, and you’ll see this even among people who rightly get mad about lack of gun control

8675309 is prime, and so is 8675311, so if you ever need a middlin'-large pair of adjacent primes to test your cryptographic suite, all you need is a 1980s earworm and a +2 and you're all set.
