DOJ broke the law today by refusing to produce all the Epstein files. It also broke the law by redacting information other than to protect victims. Yet, the corporate media is acting that DOJ did us a huge favor.

🧪As with climate change, the damages from AI are coming faster and more destructive than I imagined. Not being able to trust the literature will render science useless going forward. This could be the most powerful way to ruin all branches of science at once.

Like, you can’t even compare it to previous political satire because it’s so ridiculous. If Kafka were alive today he would be thanking every deity imaginable that he only woke up as a cockroach.
We have the worst person ever born convincing other people they can be their worst selves.

A Friday night dump where the world’s most powerful government (derogatory) closes ranks around an obvious geriatric pedophile by removing all of his appearances in the child molestation scheme his best friend for 15+ years ran while still demanding everyone believe he stands for democracy and peace

extremely proud of this. I overcame my own inertia, publishing industry disinterest, and an alarming political climate and made this thing real. If I wait three years to do it again, the next book will be released into a very different world. Hopefully better!

It is utterly catastrophic that RFK Jr. plans to end CDC recommendations for most childhood vaccines.
It’s a betrayal of science, ethics, compassion, and the people of the United States.
And it was also a specific goal of Project 2025 (page 254).

They want us to not want to be professors:
So our students don't question their propaganda.
So our research doesn't challenge their lies.
So our institutions can be replaced with so-called AI.

Vought is one of the top three or four enemies of the Constitution & American democracy. His removal from power is one of the highest priorities for any project of checking the dictatorship's lawless wielding of the vast powers of the state
Russ Vought set out to ensure a second Trump term would not be hampered by checks and balances:
“I don’t want President Trump having to lose a moment of time having fights in the Oval Office about whether something is legal or doable or moral.”

look as soon as this is over all this shit is torn down. I don't mean "vote on someone and get them to overturn it" I mean we rip it off the walls
The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

hilarious and fascinating thread
The most brutal way of telling someone they’re a few sandwiches short of a picnic that I’ve heard in French is t’es pas la truite la plus oxygénée de la rivière. It means “you’re not the most oxygenated trout in the river.”

one thing that is important to know is that BIRTH OF A NATION is so racist that people at the *time*, in 1915, were like, “holy shit this is racist”
When the slightest bit of research shows he was consistently racist and a daddy issues Confederate fanboy.
People try to paint BIRTH OF A NATION as a masterpiece with some unfortunate racism. The whole movie is racist, the “masterpiece “ thing was backfilled to excuse it.

Of all the sins of AI, this is an unexpected and deeply annoying one
Funny animal videos no longer being trustworthy just fucking sucks all around. I love the wonder of animal behavior and what it says about the experience of being alive. It's because it happened in reality that it's so fun. It's not fun if it was just made up. There's no wonder there.

"It will be an approximation of our post-COVID experience. The Americans who made it through COVID took their survival as proof the pandemic was never that serious and the real villains were the people and protocols that saved (and inconvenienced) them."
