You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today.
This could be you.

ICE is terrorizing our communities and making us less safe.
This is a tragic and horrific day.

CBS paid the president of the United States millions in bribe money and now they censor news reports so it does not annoy him. I don’t know how much plainer we can put this.

Sam Altman saying he uses Chat GPT as a parenting tool is a dumb as fuck “news” story today, but honestly, you should never take any parenting advice from rich people. Full stop. They don’t look after their kids. They have staff. Precisely zero of their parenting dilemmas resemble normal humans’.

imo it's simultaneously true that 1) kids have the deck stacked against them right now and it's good to be aware of and concerned about that and 2) it probably pays to look back on your own childhood and be realistic about how many of the moral panics thrown over your generation were total nonsense

It’s widely known (and, I think, pretty uncontroversial) that learning requires effort — specifically, if you don’t have to work at getting the knowledge, it won’t stick.
Even if an LLM could be trusted to give you correct information 100% of the time, it would be an inferior method of learning it.

Relying on ChatGPT to teach you about a topic leaves you with shallower knowledge than Googling and reading about it, according to new research that compared what more than 10,000 people knew after using one method or the other.

No contract, no coffee ✊🏻
As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.
Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

Call the United States Capitol switchboard at (202) 224-3121 and they will connect you with your senator's office.

Sounds like the squishes in the senate caucus are ready to pull the plug with no ACA changes. This is real. If you want to register your opinion you shld call yr senator in the next hour. They not only want to reopen w/nothing. They want cover from their colleagues who still want to hold out.

Police officers who publicly declare that they’ll quit if a mayoral candidate they dislike wins the election are (1) usually bluffing—sure buddy, toss away that paycheck and pension—and (2) exactly the sort of cops cities would be better off without, ones who don’t see themselves as public servants.

it’s very funny to make a distinction between cancel culture and what this is, which is clear government supression of speech. cancel culture isn’t anti first amendment, but this specifically is! which is worse!

This sort of admission—the VP is involved in prosecutorial decisions, the "concerns" arise from political actors, and the administration knows they don't have probable cause—would have prompted the Founders to impeach everyone involved.

One of the biggest blunders (when well-intentioned) and betrayals (when not) in Democratic rhetoric over the years is their impenetrable insistence that what voters respond to is somebody who begins by finding common ground with their opponent, no matter who that opponent is or what that ground is.

Also: so much of the discussion around kids in public revolves around noise. Let me tell you that nothing is noisier than a child who is being told “no” or constructively corrected. If we want parents to enforce rules and boundaries, we should expect some noise.

the real thing issue is that we have some groups of young men *claiming* to be driven right because of problems like male isolation when the right is not actually offering material solutions to those problems. what the right is offering is social and political power over women.
