idk maybe I am just wired/built differently, but even if you slid me a huge pile of money in the form of a hefty salary I couldn’t be a mouthpiece for some of the things folks decide to be mouthpieces for, even cynically - I would feel the weight of the shame deep within and I wish they could, too

Remember how they installed an AI vending machine in a newsroom and a bunch of investigative journalists convinced it to hold a Snack Jubilee that gave away free Playstations?

Anyway AI-Controlled monster battleship sounds fine and not at all something some ne’er-do-well would hack immediately
“Trump-class” Golden Fleet AI-controlled battleships will be the largest "in the history of the world ever built" with hypersonic weapons, the most-sophisticated lasers and Cruise nuclear missiles and "ultimately there'll be 20 to 25 of these," announces the president.

Self-examination nothing: y'all need to confront the fact that you owe your academic career to the unique expertise of librarians and archivists.

Who do you think organized those LIBRARIES of texts that you're drawing upon?
If you're an academic who is protective or defensive about your own area of expertise (understandable, in this day and age), but are offended when it's suggested that professional archivists & librarians have unique expertise outside your own experience, that's worth some self-examination

TikTok is removing clips of the leaked 60 Minutes segment.

The Ellison family (which acquired Paramount — CBS’s parent company — and The Free Press, making Bari Weiss Editor-in-Chief of CBS) is set to co-own TikTok through a Trump-backed deal.

On my block, my friend Candelario (José) was taken by ICE from his food truck, El Saborcito. His family is requesting support to survive his absence and pay for his legal support.

His goal is almost reached, but he is part of a community of support, so extra funds will get to the right place.

Jose is not just my friend—he’s a hardworking father of four who runs a beloved taco truck on my propert… Jay Lee needs your support for Jose and el Saborcito

I highly recommend watching this segment, not just because the CBS News execs and the White House didn’t want you to, but because these men were tortured and they deserved to have their voices heard.
!! Here’s a link to full video of the 60 Minutes segment that Bari Weiss killed last minute, via @jasonparis.bsky.social:

(It was uploaded to the Global TV app in Canada, seemingly by accident, and has now been taken down)

they are not brilliant.

the billionaires and institutions in this country are just more craven than we could have ever imagined, even in our most cynical imaginings.

Like, it’s fucking incredible to watch this bitch try to replicate *Jubilee* from first principles and call it the news.

The problem is that Americans don’t get to see the news, they ONLY get to see PR debates between liberal capitalists and far right capitalists. That’s not news! That’s marketing.

It’s literally the thesis of the universally reviled debate channel, Jubilee, in fact.

It’s almost like limiting the scope of acceptable perspectives to “liberal” and “conservative” and then encouraging rigorous debate between those two factions only serves the interests of white supremacy. Weird.
CNN has a show with a similar line. That the problem with this country is we just aren’t talking to each other.

It’s the kind of diagnosis that a toddler would land on.

My student Hannah Zadeh just completed an excellent dissertation on the inclusion of race coefficients and predictive stats more generally in medicine.
a main takeaway: AI tools lock in on these factors in part because **researchers have been doing the same thing**

I’m sorry, but it is disgraceful to be an academic who uses this technology to conduct research. It should be prohibited in all of our scholarly institutions, including universities and journals.

How the nyt used the Cass report to restart its anti-trans propaganda campaign in the US:
Coverage of the report was initially assigned to a nyt UK correspondent, usual practice for a UK report. The story being prepared cited critics who called Cass a shoddy, political document that defied science
One reason the NYT has burned its credibility with trans people is that they still cite the discredited Cass report in reporting on trans healthcare. Never the German, Utah, or other systematic reviews supporting care. They also never provide the political context behind restrictions in care.

Important thread from a former NYT staffer breaking down how the paper's genocidal anti-trans crusade is directed, top down, from the highest levels of the organization.

Stop putting bullets in the gun that's killing us. Boycott the New York Times.
The story never ran. Coverage of Cass was taken away from the international desk, per order of top editors in NY, and given to the science desk. That desk had been a leader in promoting anti-trans disinformation throughout 2022-23. (Hundreds of the nyt own contributors had denounced its bias)

Y'all we have one more day to make 19 presents happen. Please help if you can.
Tomorrow is the last day of this holiday toy drive for Chicago families impacted by ICE. 41 of the 60 kids who were registered have had a present purchased.

Organizers are hoping every child and family can receive a gift. Let's help them reach their goal!
