US environmental agency puts 139 employees on leave after they criticized Trump's policies
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency placed 139 employees on administrative leave after they signed a letter critical of President Donald Trump's policies, with the EPA saying it has "zero-tolerance" for those sabotaging the government's agenda.

What if we as authors/actors/culture creators just--collectively decided that the NYT is no longer the paper of record? Stopped submitting books for review? Stopped giving interviews? Stopped using their pull quotes on our dust jackets and in our advertising? Stopped submitting op-eds?
The asymmetry of Bouie having to delete posts for a bunch of journalists suffering zero consequences for horrifically unethical journalism is peak
I deleted several posts about a Times story because they violated Times social media standards.

HUGE WIN! A preliminary injunction was granted in the trans passport case.
For now, it only applies to the plaintiff but they can seek class certification soon and extend it to everyone seeking to change gender markers on passports.

So YouTube just rolled out an Auto-dubbing feature, which takes spoken audio, translates it, and uses your voice to make you say it.
It’s an AI audio bank.
Be cautious as to where your voice goes and who uses it on the platform. This is a major issue of voice autonomy now.
