That Viral Essay Scandal is (SURPRISE!) Actually About Trans People
A shoddy Oklahoma University essay went viral. Cis people think this is about conservatives whining for better grades. Trans people see a planned attack on a trans academic.

“I can’t recall any other example of a federal policy that provoked quite so much litigation in such a short period of time—or in which so many judges from across the geographical and ideological spectrum so overwhelmingly rejected the executive branch’s new interpretation of the relevant statutes.”
195. The Immigration Detention Flood
The Trump administration's attempt to quietly—but massively—expand who can be detained pending their removal has been met with overwhelming pushback from a remarkably large number of district courts.

every trans person i see post about the OU suspension knows that the suspended target is trans & a grad student, & has an innate awareness that this is about purging trans employees. every cis person i see thinks the target is a rando professor & that this is about giving conservatives good grades

Is Trump selling drugs overseas?
Reporter: You have made so clear how you want to keep drugs out of the US—
Trump: Right
Reporter: Can you explain why you would pardon a notorious drug trafficker?
Trump: If somebody sells drugs in that country, that doesn’t mean you arrest the president

I am once again asking United States Senators to take a trial ad class to learn cross examination and witness control techniques plz
One thing to note about Bove’s response re: whistleblower report is that he didn’t explicitly deny making the “fuck you” comment.
Would be interesting to see his response if a senator directly asks him if he denies saying that

I'm also surprised that Roger went with a Hong Kong factory (I called the factory today to confirm). If MAGA is about making America great again through reindustrialization, why not use a US factory? Over at O'Connell's, you can find MiUSA tailoring for half of Roger's prices

Instead, these jackets should be delivered with what's called "unfinished sleeves," which means the buttonholes haven't been made and the buttons come in a little plastic pouch. This way, your tailor punches the buttonholes only after they've adjusted the sleeves to fit you.

In this sense, the three-roll-two closure somewhat disappoints me, as I would have liked to see it combined with other classic American details. I think you would get a better American-styled jacket nowadays through Tailor CAID in Tokyo.

Most importantly, a classic American jacket lacks front darts, which are the stitched down folds that give a garment shape. This again was part of the democratic ethos, as it gave American tailoring straighter sides that fit a wider range of body types.

Classic American style was also expressed through the idiosyncratic two-button cuff, often made with the buttons slightly spaced apart (but not so much that a third button could fit between them). Even Bernie Sanders understands this look, which is why it's surprising Roger doesn't.

He finally was convicted, and went to prison on Nov. 14.

So you think you know Irish history? Try this entertaining test. The Journal is an excellent unbiased news app - I recommend it!
This year marks the 250th birthday of Irish revolutionary Daniel O'Connell.
The 250th anniversary of an event is called a semiquincentennial (say that five times fast), and there were others celebrated recently too.
Take the quiz and test your knowledge of them! jrnl.ie/6886030

Before being put in charge of the most powerful military in human history, Hegseth's big cause was getting war criminals pardoned! Trump pardoning serial killer eddie gallagher was basically Hegseth's doing
Thing is, we DID hear about it at his confirmation hearing.
Every single senator who voted to confirm Hegseth knew he held these views about the laws of war.
They voted to confirm him anyway.

Everyone should read this terrifying thread about Hegseth’s published views wrt war crimes. It’s pretty fucking radical …. We needed to hear about this in his confirmation hearing.

We should really retire the term "AI" it's been corrupted beyond redemption. Actual useful applications of machine learning need to be called something else.
The problem is that thanks to techbros "AI" is now the term that describes everything from perverted teddy bears and chatbots that tell you to kill yourself to actually useful ML applications. People hate the former, and by association they hate "AI"-everything.
