Trust in Kojima.
Hideo Kojima recently watched KPop Demon Hunters and was blown away and moved to tears. Should he make the game? #KPopDemonHunters #Netflix #HideoKojima

If you’re wondering why your friends in academia are a little on edge right now, it’s because an eighteen-year-old who hasn’t done the reading, doesn’t look at the assignment, and has does no critical thinking skills more complex than “because I think it’s in the Bible” can literally end your career
The University of Oklahoma has removed an instructor who was accused by a student of religious discrimination over a failing grade on a psychology paper in which she cited the Bible and argued that promoting a “belief in multiple genders” was “demonic.” https://cnn.it/4b6g3rd

one lesser awful thing about the Epstein files is that genuine crimes against a huge number of children are being morphed into fuel for the influencer industrial complex who don't care about truth or accuracy and just want grist for the content mills

Can AZ go a single day without comically stupid politicians?
Under Arizona Sen. Janae Shamp's bill, researchers would be tasked with identifying the "initial emergence or earliest documented cases of Trump Derangement Syndrome."

Alan Dershowitz, Mr “I kept my underwear on” is not going to be happy about this.
The redacted document says he negotiated the Epstein agreement in order to protect himself.
More generally, Epstein’s buddies are not going to be happy,
as there seems to be a way to see behind the redactions …

It is. You can actually search visible text on the redacted documents and the completely UNredacted document appears in the results 😭

And also this
The Olivia Nuzzi story and the Bari Weiss at CBS story are the same story, which is that the upper echelons of legacy media are absolutely rife with people who worship power and don't feel burdened by any sense of responsibility to their profession or the public.

One of my favorite songs. It is remarkably relevant to the current era, despite being 30 years old.

Children are being exploited. Let’s respond by dramatically hindering our ability to point out or criticize children being exploited, using methods we don’t understand because we’re old and incurious.
Children are being exploited and abused because Big Tech consistently prioritizes profits over people.
Enough is enough. Time to sunset Section 230.

Think about this. Did you hear trans panic headlines in the 2000s? No.
Conservatives weren’t “worried” about trans people until the day they lost on Marriage Equality.
Once they realized most of us are just fine with gay marriage, they needed a new wedge issue and started attacking trans people.

I’m rewatching Mad About You & theres a joke where Ursula the ditzy waitress mistakes a recurring character for a post-op trans woman and immediately talks about how great she looks now, then deadnames her as part of a running joke at Ursula’s expense. In 1995. The great trans scare is manufactured.

David Brooks, who wrote in the NYT last month, "The Epstein Story? Count Me Out" is... in the latest Epstein photo dump published by @oversightdemocrats.house.gov.
He should absolutely be fired by NYT for this. Major conflict of interest that he didn't disclose.
