Just a reminder that there is no good data to support these uses in K12, we are just testing it live all on kids who won’t ever be these ages again and can’t get them back if we fuck it up.
"AI can draft an essay for you, especially if you give it a high quality prompt." Really? This is what MIT thinks high schoolers should learn? MIT's "Day of AI" dayofai.org provides materials for K-12 teachers and claims to have reached over 5,000,000 students to date. 1/2

the shit they've said today is so fucking far beyond the pale that their careers should be completely fucking over today. They should be grilled by the media for the next WEEK continuously about what they've said. Every mention of them should be prefaced with it, like they do for hasan piker

I'm going to try to do this cleanly. Today's right wing governments are networked to each other. Those networks are well-documented. You can read about them in books. Following the elections in one node of that network is good practice for understanding the U.S. node.
I just think Matt's wrong about this. We're at a point in our technological development where a ton of problems spill over national borders--if Flavio Bolsonaro burns down the Amazon, that will flood houses in Miami.

I also think it is important here to distinguish between a sports-esque 'rooting interest' and a recognition that populist authoritarian leaders and movements tend to understand themselves as allies of each other. Orban and Putin spent a lot of money promoting authoritarianism abroad.
I think this is broadly correct but it’s a symptom not a cause- the reason I’m deeply invested in the democratic choices of e.g. Brazil is that there’s a really big difference between Lula and Bolsonaro! a characteristic of democracy is that it allows for very frequent big direction changes

"…Epstein immediately approached her saying 'I’m Jeffrey, Don’s best friend.' Epstein then spent at least 10 minutes talking to Keul, all the time looking over and grinning at Trump… Epstein also made similar promises as Trump…'You know I can take care of you. We organize many parties with Don.'"
NEW: "Donald Trump was an active participant in Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual abuse of young women during the mid-to-late 1990s," per new House Judiciary Dem report. Report has new allegation that Trump raped a 24-year-old and then promised the victim a visa & NYU admission, demanding she stay quiet.

We just watched the Republicans execute a plan multiple decades in the making and doing to achieve a specific goal of overturning Roe v. Wade. They created organizations, expanded influence networks, and installed officials and key positions at multiple levels of government and the judiciary.

this is particularly important as we see more and more liberals decide that we're better off dead they don't care that we're not having children. they don't care about "fairness in sports". they care that we prove that they don't get to dictate the structure of social reality
that is to say, I think *this* is the point that it's important to keep our eyes on. they care about how we use our genitals, absolutely. but they care more that we break their understanding of the world

JUST BEGINNING MY FINAL YEAR ON CITY COUNCIL IN NORTH POLE, ALASKA! During election season, I hope you’ll enjoy this one-minute video that ‘Honor Your Hometown’ posted. I’ve been trying to set a good example as a legislator and encouraging other progressives to run. www.youtube.com/watch?v=bKvM...

The enemy had a clear goal, and a solid plan on how to get there, and the Democrats watched them do it and did NOTHING. What is the long-term Democratic plan for ANY issue? How long do we expect it to take? What fights do you need us to win today so that we can DO something in 20 years?

What is the Democratic plan to nationalize the power grid? What is the Democratic plan to end homelessness? What is the Democratic plan to decarbonize our economy? What is the Democratic plan to provide medical care to every human being within our borders? What is the Democratic plan to do ANYTHING?

I will never vote for an anti-transgender Democrat like Josh Turek and you should not either. I'll probably be writing my case to abstain from a handful of races like his on Monday. Josh Turek is showing the exact slippery slope I've called out, in real time.
Josh Turek of Iowa, Democrat, comes out with one of the worst anti-trans ads yet. Not only is it an anti-sports ad, it proposes a ban on federal funding for gender affirming care. That would hit all medicaid and medicare patients, and any ACA federally-subsidized plans as well. Horrific.

What have you been doing with yourself, that you let this disease into your mind? What were you thinking when you opened your heart to it? What had to happen for you to forsake your brothers and your siblings? Your closest allies? Why do coddle your own experience of a most hateful human impulse?
