And remember this: the Imperial need for control is so desperate because it is so unnatural. Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear. -from Nemik’s Manifesto, 𝘈𝘯𝘥𝘰𝘳

The wildest thing about companies like, say, Anthropic, saying their models *might* be conscious, possibly even entitled to rights, is the murder implications. These things are copied, most of the copies very soon destroyed, simply because of how modern IT works. Like, we tend to anthropomorphize…

Shane Gillis exposed an important truth: The problem is not in the perceived but in the perceiver. I've seen it and many of the women in my life know that the church constantly tries to regulate women, including how they dress. It's not the gym. It's not women. It's your mind.

Hey, I’m just asking questions. Ignorant questions, bigoted questions, questions that have been repeatedly answered for many years. Sorry, but I’m not listening to answers right now; I’m far too busy asking questions. It’s called being intellectually curious.

ICE detainees say they’ve been served food that’s undercooked, spoiled or infested with bugs. They can buy commissary food, but it’s expensive. So self-described California mom Casey Revkin is channeling more than $10,000/week in donations to feed hundreds of kids @arelisrhdz.bsky.social reports

After six months of war, Iran's leadership has coalesced around a hard core of military generals and clerics long entrenched in the ruling theocracy. They are ready for a potentially long confrontation with the U.S. and determined to prevent any unrest at home. https://to.pbs.org/4A0Aq3g

ICE has arrested more than half a million people since President Trump returned to office, and nearly 40 percent do not have a criminal record. As of Aug. 6, ICE had detained more people without a criminal record this year than in all of 2025. https://wapo.st/4izoaAb

Trump: “The Winning Shot in the Bedminster Club Championship! Thank you very much to all of those who participated.

We have to stay open to questioning our own assumptions and taking in new perspectives and information. One mental exercise I do to get in that mindset is to simply ask myself, “What if I’m wrong?”

The reality is ... unless an action is egregious, every sport should do everything it can to keep stars on the field, NBA style. Or stop having such overly punitive initial processes that were established as overreactions to previous outlier actions

Trump says he’s destroyed Iran’s military while Trump says we’ve left their military alone. Hard to know who to believe

Trump claims his strikes haven't really hurt the Iranian military: "We've actually left their military alone. People would be surprised to hear that."

Again, please share. In every aspect of American history you will run smack dab into the critical contributions of Black people. It’s not Black history. It’s American history. Trying to erase it is a fool’s errand. We live it every day. time.com/5836444/blac...
