The U.S. AI industry is being run by a batshit rationalist sex cult, and no, I am not being hyperbolic - they’re genuinely Like That:

ICE has started its crackdown in Springfield, Ohio -- the town where JD Vance accused Haitians of eating dogs and cats. Residents reported "a caravan of vehicles" conducting raids. One unnamed neighbor "praised all the Haitians who live around him." www.springfieldnewssun.com/local/spring...

This anti-Haitian pogrom is here. Fuck.

Will Stancil@whstancil.bsky.social

That is correct. Trump has set a date to revoke Haitian protected status, and then set a date for the anti-Haitian pogrom to begin the next day. ICE must go. Miller must go. Noem must go. Even Vance must go. Their ethnonationalist mania gets more violent every day and is going to destroy America.

I'm all for pen and paper in the classroom but... It really sucks that there is very little good Ed Tech right now. My 9 year old was just diagnosed with dyslexia and dysphonia. and we'll need all that we can get.

Went to parent-teacher night at my kid's middle school this evening and got told that the district is now moving away from technology in the classroom and going back to pen and paper. I love that this excellent news of rebellion came on the same day as Zuckerberg's AI supremacist screed.

Replying to @mikhailgorbaechev.bsky.social

Huge numbers of American Jews who believed they were safe with the broad left had that belief suddenly and catastrophically fractured when a significant number of people openly celebrated a pretty horrific mass slaughter of civilians, and then subsequently decided that no none of that happened.

Hey so now that awesome, cool politician Brad Lander, who identifies as a ‘liberal Zionist’ or ‘progressive Zionist’ but criticizes Israel and stands up for Palestinians, has been elected to Congress… CAN EVERYONE PLEASE STOP THROWING AROUND THE WORD ‘ZIONIST’ AS A SLUR?!?!?

⚠️Warning - Pride post ahead🏳️‍🌈 In COVID, I went through major depression. I was 39. I thought it was because I was having a hard time being a father of 2 young kids and I hated my job. WRONG - It was because I didn’t have the wherewithal to admit to myself that I bisexual. I contemplated suicide.

Ever since I came out and found queer community I am 100x happier. Depression gone. Every day, even the hard ones (and there many because I now have 3 kids and a busy job), has so much joy in it. That’s what Pride month is about for me. Moving from darkness to joy.

The Giants debacle bums me out. There are people that hold power and wealth in San Francisco that HATE queer people. IN 2026. They are afraid of joy. They will never win.

SF Giants: ‘In other words, we don’t give a shit about our LGBTQ+ fans. We’ll take their money and then kick them in the teeth when they are inside the ballpark.’

The Giants have single handedly self immolated 20% or more of their fan base today. Unless there are drastic changes the organization is going to be very lost for a long time. And I’ll be voting with my wallet. I can adopt some other teams and skip games with my kids and friends no problem.

Love or hate AI, the fact that the US government is actively trying to punish a huge company it doesn’t like is hugely disconcerting. Feels like we’re sliding into an oligarchy further and further

T’ruah means a shout, a battle cry for justice, a joyful noise that calls us toward collective liberation. I was honored to celebrate the work of Rabbi Jill Jacobs and T’ruah at their gala. This year’s honorees, including New York’s own Gili Getz, remind us that solidarity is a practice.

I use to be a fan of Hasan before 10/7. He can truly fuck off with this bullshit. Scott Wiener has been a real presence in my community for years. It feels like he was the first politician I met who really cared about his constituents.

Saikat is a self hating tech bro who has no experience with governing. At all. Also he probably hates me because I think Israel has a right to exist. I want him as far away from being my representative in Congress as possible.

If a powerful and evil person reviled my colleagues, and dehumanized them, and said they should be executed for treason, and I went and broke bread with that person at an event to promote and celebrate and normalize him, I would be a shitty person, and I hope people would be shitty to me.

Good for him but I am tired of learning about all the ways a 41-year-old candidate for U.S. Senate supposedly has a lot more growing and learning to do. Maybe do that before the Senate? And maybe try out a lower office before then? Or maybe we just watch him blossom into another Sinema/Fetterman.

Platner apologized for using the r-word in a recent interview. I was the first journalist to criticize this usage in my article, so I do take some credit to bringing attention to the problem. www.wmtw.com/article/grah...

I know this is old news but I really liked Philz - it’s where I had my first pour over when I moved to the Bay Area over 16 years ago. The mint mojito forever will be outrageously tasty. Due to Philz taking down their pride flags, they are now dead to me. I will never buy from them again.

A number of Jewish organizations are shrilly insisting that any criticism of Israeli genocide and warmongering is an illegitimate attack on Jews. At the same time, an increasing number of non-Jewish people are insisting that any attack on Jews is a legitimate attack on Israel. This sucks, man

I will never ever ever again work for a company where the GC is a pure corporate / M&A person with 0 appetite for actually addressing risk (ask me how I know!)

It’s game over for Trump and anyone who supports this ridiculous war. War = fuel prices go up is very easy to explain to people at the pump The cost of everything else will follow.

I am genuinely appalled that Wired published such an aggressively homophobic article. Its claims amount to "some people in power in Silicon Valley abuse that power, AND they're gay," but it presents it as if they abuse their power *because* they're gay, or if *only* gay men abuse their power.

There is no way that 70,000 people are trying to buy tickets to Bruce Springsteen in Pittsburgh in May. Ticketmaster is the biggest scam and needs to be broken up

Fuck yea

Don’t let this White House lie to you. Believe what you see. Alex Pretti was trying to help a woman off the ground. Then immigration agents tackled, shot, and killed him. It’s time for them to get the hell out of MN.

Today a man was killed by the federal government and they are trying to erase what happened, in an age of cell phones. It won’t fucking work.

JUST IN: In a new lawsuit, Minnesota officials say DHS mishandled evidence from today's crime scene and made "astonishing" law enforcement decisions. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

The ACLU of Minnesota filed this, along with a number of local Minnesota firms. All of them deserve praise for taking on this work, because it is high risk.
