AI doomers should chill. As these videos show, we have bright future manufacturing "palm wood furniture", giant diamonds and 78-caliber lipstick. (via www.youtube.com/@FullProcess... )

5. So now transplant all of what's happened in AI lately to any other industry. Suppose a pharma company releases a product that millions of people find useful. They do de minimus testing prior to release. Then they say "turns out this product might kill you, but I can't stop making it."
The ever-vigilant @nytimes.com with shocking blockbuster news!... (Hold onto something) The personal lawyer put in charge of the DoJ to specifically torment DJT's perceived enemies may, it appears, not be respecting ethical norms! www.nytimes.com/2026/09/17/u...
Good op-ed piece: www.nytimes.com/2026/09/14/o... “Our common abandonment keeps failing to produce a common politics — solidarity across difference — because all too often the way the story is told silos it. Each tribe has its own theory of who’s to blame and its favored expression of self-help.”

DHS's now amply-documented extensive illegal undercover surveillance of people engaging in First Amendment-protected activities should outrage you. It should be the top story on everyone's radar. This is police-state stuff. Raise your voices!

✅ the MONTH after that! 😭
✅ “next week” ✅ “the week after” - “the week after that” (Though to its credit, for the moment @nytimes have stopped touting vaporware "deals"...but then so have the clowns running this circus. We'll see the Times amplifies the bullshit once the regime re-heats and serves it up.)

Whatever else you do this morning, take the time to read Jamelle Bouie's piece on the Declaration of Independence: "It is this Declaration—the slaves’ Declaration, the abolitionists’ Declaration, Lincoln’s Declaration—that is the beating heart of the American project. It is this Declaration that

Obama has long been a spokesman for "creedal nationalism." His speech lays this out, but also calls out those who believe "some groups are more equal than others." That's key. We need more Dems to point out that Trump/MAGA reject the Declaration's core promise: newrepublic.com/article/2121...

For years I've tracked billionaire excess. Each year I show students a chart that blows their minds. This year I had to redraw it for a trillionaire: Elon Musk, $1.32T. Depressing that we're here. Silver lining: couldn't have happened to a less deserving person, proof that wealth ≠ merit.

Almost every day I think about this quote from David Sedaris. It's not just that the country collectively chose the platter of shit with broken glass in it.
