The EO that included restoring monuments/memorials on federal property is a full-on embrace of Confederate ideology. Beginning Monday @uncpress.bsky.social will make my book No Common Ground available to read FOR FREE for the next two weeks. Educate yourself about what this embrace means. ✊

The attack on DEI shows why liberals should stop arguing about "strategic" use of language forever. DEI stands for three uncontroversial virtues that most every American accepts, and the right still turned it into a vile slur. It doesn't matter what you say - they will poison it because YOU said it.

I don't think we're talking enough about the fact that the pressure to remove DEI from science means women die.

His illiquidity is the danger. He has to keep doing shit like this. The Not Actually Real Money Bus must be kept above $200 billion or it will explode. All of this shit is basically debt and blackmail and it's forcing people like Musk into increasingly precarious and dangerous positions.
may be beside the point/extremely obvious but i feel like you can only ignore extreme wealth inequality for so long before it metastasizes into something that fundamentally remakes and destabilizes the world by giving people access to so much money that they are fully above consequence
A consortium led by Elon Musk has made an unsolicited bid to buy the nonprofit that controls OpenAI for $97.4 billion. Huge scoop by @jtoonkel and @berber_jin1 www.wsj.com/tech/elon-mu...

Bluesky is my safe space, so here it goes: The Oppenheimer script was bad and the movie was saved by its visuals. The women are so poorly drawn (Nolan is infamous for this) and the dialogue is thumping and heavy-handed. His films have a reputation of being intellectual but they feel shallow to me!
