Someone I follow at the other place that's a nurse pointed out below-the-knee leg braces on both legs that you can clearly see through his pants. She's surmising that he has "drop foot" from advancing dementia.
If that's the case, next up for him is a walker.
Then a wheelchair.

We’re fine, Vox. If you have idea problems, that’s a) a you problem and b) probably means you need to shake up your life. Go on a walking tour, take only a flip phone and an emergency beacon. Go spend two weeks in a white tent or a yurt (without internet) and reset your circadian.

America, you have spoken loud and clear: You do not like AI. But what if AI is the way to restart the world’s idea machine?
We’re running out of good ideas. AI might be how we find new ones.
What if the best use of AI is restarting the world’s idea machine?

The Sec Def is cooked
Worse, he’s not exercising moral authority with that statement, but basically invoking the authority of his position. Any leader in that position is cooked - they’ve lost the organization.

They don’t seem to have any vision on how to actually make people’s lives better right now. It’s “we will punish the people you hate and through magic, that will make your life better” but that shit doesn’t work!

I was trying in vain to figure out what Trump's game was in Venezuela, and now @mollymckew.bsky.social has written a brilliant two-part piece explaining it all...and, spoiler alert, it's not good for America, but very good for Russia, and is absolutely terrifying.

The war on Venezuela is a war for American reality — PART 1
President Trump has pushed the nation toward a fulcrum — a point where the entire definition of American power could unhinge, and after which there is greatly increased risk for the United States of A...

I don't know why we still call them ICE and treat them as a legitimate organization. They are an armed Militia and should be designated as a terrorist group. No other legal force in America wears masks and strips people of due process. They are a terrorist organization

New incredible detail here: ICE says a match in its facial recognition app Mobile Fortify is a "definitive" determination of a person's status, and that this overrides birth certificates. This is an app ICE is using in the field to scan people
