What these Schatz posts say to me is that Dem elected officials like him seem incapable of perceiving the right as a *political movement.* The response to Covid mitigation and the Floyd protests was not a spontaneous reaction...it was a right wing backlash organized by a reactionary movement.
This is verbatim what you could read for years in your favourite antivax Facebook group. Beyond disturbing that this is your government now.
The missile in the picture is a SS-20 donated to the Smithsonian by the Soviets to commemorate the INF treaty. Which is now history.
Every single thing, EVERY SINGLE THING, that RFK has done was predictable and predicted. He is doing what every other fascist eugenicist has done before him. The disability community has been warning about this for YEARS. It is not in any way shape or form mysterious and unknowable.
I'm sure it does, but I'm getting very strong "clogging up my arteries to own the libs" energy lately...
What is their obsession with tallow, anyway?
This is SO messed up. 🫥 I had a few messages and tags today asking me to clarify my stance on Israel, which was odd as I've been pretty outspoken against genocide and in full support of Palestinian statehood...
Reported ages ago, really annoying it's still up @support.bsky.team
Bluesky right now ...

We can dream
The maddening thing is that we know EXACTLY how to prevent this. Yes, kids should get vaccinated, test, stay home when sick, mask as much as possible. But even without any of that: Better ventilation and filtration in schools can MASSIVELY reduce viral spread, for all sorts of respiratory diseases.

(1/X) Sometimes people ask "why does this supposedly reasonable Republican back Trump or why does this centrist spend all of this time attacking the left at a time when the right is destroying the country?" The answer is simple: it's because they're assholes.
Thinking about that movie a lot lately
imagine being so maniacally racist that you side with the fire over the firefighter
Following 5k people and soo many emojis...
"Sorry, what did you just say" is criminally underused by journalists
Don't worry, Dems are pivoting to kitchen table issues.
It's mind boggling that they seem to think this is a perfectly reasonable explanation
I'll never understand how "kids don't spread it" ever managed to get traction. Have people ever met children?
Is this some manosphere shit like "you need to be mean to her so she won't leave you" or something?
I hate it here
LLMs are good NLP like CNNs are good computer vision, which is to say, very cool for what they are, but marketing this stuff as actual "artificial intelligence" in the sense of there's a living thinking thing in there is irresponsibly deceptive and should honestly be considered fraud
We have a societal and educational crisis on our hands of people not understanding what LLMs are and are not, can and cannot do. It's impacting economics, the job market, art, mental health, and business at all levels. If you think I'm an AI skeptic because I don't understand them, think again.
Does that even count as running?
I'm sure this is a very normal and totally not creepy thing he surely has told his GF about... right???
I can see these dangling from the rear view mirror of the family chariot
In a bold change from senate norms, Chancellor Palpatine has declared himself "Galactic Emperor"
“There’s no need to sensationalize or dilute anything,” is a wild thing to say, frankly, when you’re talking about a group of bigots who have garnered international attention for their modern segregated community Do we grapple with the ugliness of our racist country, or do we keep writing fluff?
Been blocking them left and right, it feels so fake
Soo cute (and amazing hunters)

And a bag of chips
That actually looks painful to wear without a waistbelt
I get that some people might ascribe a sort of intelligence to these bots, but I really don't understand how they're ok with the performance? If that was a human team member we'd be having a long hard conversation about considering a different line of work

This post by the journalist in the comment section is the cherry on the cake. Next time, they'll ask readers if they agree with this kind of thing and to weigh the pros and cons.
May we all stop wasting time and energy indulging anyone - any institution, any pundit, any so-called expert - who insists on coming up with ways to obscure what is in front of them and call this something other than what it so evidently is.
I fundamentally don't understand why these people don't get ridiculed instead of being buried in money
*getting dragged off by goons* Nice try but i'm not taking the bait
Gives us a strong hint though how they think their chatbots' answer shaped word salads pass for intelligence
Biology never recovered from Lysenkoism in the Soviet Union, even two decades after Lysenko was disgraced. It may not recover from Bhattacharyaist MAHA in the USA. Bhattacharya must be removed from his position before the damage is irreversible.

The FT has been consistently good on this stuff, the only outlet to really take coreweave seriously, had great reporting, probably my fav business outlet. The Altman oil piece by bryce elder is one of the most devastating things I've ever read www.ft.com/content/b180...
we’re on the eve of civil war, but somehow the level of alarm feels like an HOA dispute.
Just that that cloud is 15 kilometers tall and goes all the way around them - it's the eye of a cat 5 hurricane...
I know we’re all desensitized to this shit by now, but do you ever think about how insane it is that a large portion of this country recreationally takes horse dewormer for no reason other than ideology?
Ooh, I would have needed this so much. In high school I was so used to get by with minimal effort that I really had no idea what to do at first
Ewww
Keeping up with this shit much more than I'd like, thank you very much. If you don't care who wins you're fine with who wins
It's a numbers game. It may be a one in a million shot, but if he tries it every day - there's a 50% chance to get laid within the next 2000 years or so...
Damn, you're right. They sound exactly like MMORPG fans
Trump depended and welcomed dirty Russian money. The Kremlin illegally helped Trump come to power in 2016. Now Trump is trying to turn America into a Russian-style mafia state. Congratulations to everyone who wrote hit pieces against me and others who warned this was coming for over a decade.
That means 69% of those eligible to vote were just fine with Trump. Sounds bad.

Human rights are a binary issue at the core. Either you believe they apply to everyone or you don't. If you're ready to throw trans people under the bus, you're not a 90% good person, you're just someone who believes that he will never end up on the wrong side of a line somebody else has drawn.
Bizarre
Aaaaaaaargh
Motherfucker wrote one sloppy paper in April 2020 and instead of being like oops, shit, my bad, he has kept doubling down until now he's killing most promising medical technology of the past quarter century rather than going to therapy.
Those super-savvy "haha, I won't fall for this distraction" takes drive me nuts. A thing distracing you from a bad thing can absolutely also be a bad thing.
What the F are we doing, people????
Again: the right mounted a huge, billionaire-funded conspiracy to take over US media, degrade US institutions, & erode US rule of law. It happened right out in the open, over decades, & the US media & political establishment not only ignored it but punished all attempts to discuss it.
Violent crime is at an all-time low in D.C. the NYT acting as stenographers for the administration is shameful - this is an authoritarian crackdown on an overwhelmingly Democratic city. Accepting and amplifying the framing of the Trump admin is wildly irresponsible.
You have more money than God. But you want incentives to do good, moral things?
Yes, but "boys will be boys". "Don't you have a sense of humour?". "He does that because he likes you". Etc.
Gotcha. Wasn't quite clear what you were approving of
Come again?
A reality that seems to be hard to grasp for Euro politicians whose worldview was formed in the cold war
Counterpoint: it's not hard to tell.
To reach energy efficiency standards, modern machines by default don't get really hot enough even when you set them to high temperatures (they just claim an "equivalent" cleaning result to the high temp). Often they have an "I don't care" setting that makes them behave conventionally, though...
Another horrific series of press rights abuses tonight at hands of LAPD. Initial reports are 4 journalists injured (several bleeding), 3 cameras broken, 5 put in zip ties. All in defiance of state law, a judge's order, and chief's signed order. LAPD can't police itself. Maybe the judge will.
That's good to hear (the being released part)
Can't or won't?
Yes. All of them.
Guys if anyone wants to help Mel, she’s been arrested covering the LA ICE protest. Her PayPal and Venmo are in her Linktree posted on her BSKY profile.

"We hadn't had even a minor disagreement for months after that" Dude.
I'm grateful that Andor somehow managed to squeeze through the gates before Disney fell to the Empire
On a week's salary I'd say that's indeed true for the majority of people
'dangerous' is putting it too mildly. It's a certainty that this will kill people and they know that they are killing people. It's nothing less than evil.
We've had so many scifi shows where you could talk to infallible, all knowing computers. It's easy to convince people that's what we're getting now. They think the jury is out whether it will be Star Trek, Mu-th-ur or Skynet, but that a computer could just be making shit up doesn't cross their mind
Stop this. Just… Stop it. Stop using "generative AI" for anything that might actually matter, and especially things that, if it gets them wrong, *Might Fucking Kill You.* Why does this need to be said? Why is this not obvious??? Why is this not the default way of fucking operating?! What the FUCK.
Dan Quale misspelling potato was a major incident

i think it is hard for some people to really their heads around the reality that kennedy is staunchly anti-vaccine and thinks that people should suffer through disease and that those who die deserved it and that those who survive are a better order of human being
