Yet again I remind everyone (as Elizabeth does in her very next tweet) that "foreigners are corrupting our pure blood with weakness & disease" is Fascism 101. Not some variant, not some metaphorically similar thing, not some echo -- the thing itself.

yt is my only job

I like making videos man. this is pretty rude.

my job would be so much easier if people would screen shot the tweets they are talking about instead of linking them.

A screenshot of a post on X (formerly Twitter) by Magyar Péter (Ne féljetek), with the handle @magyarpeterMP. The post reads: "Until 31 May, the Orbán puppets may voluntarily step down from their positions. This applies to the President of Hungary, the President of the Curia, the President of the National Office for the Judiciary, the President of the Constitutional Court, and the Prosecutor General. On 12 April, the Hungarian people voted for a complete political transformation. If these officials do not step down voluntarily by 31 May, then — on the basis of the mandate received from millions of Hungarians — we will remove them from office." At the bottom, the timestamp reads "3:04 AM • Apr 21, 2026" alongside "19.9K Views".

Peter Magyar is not playing around at all. He's going to purge every single remnant of corrupt Orbanism. This is exactly how Dems need to be when they retake power.

Challenging the Pope: The Avignon Papacy

So today on Gone Medieval I have that rare thing - a medievalist emergency - wherein I had to explain the Avignon Papacy because a lot of people know the phrase *cough* the Trump administration *cough* but they don't actually know what it means. Don't let it be you.

this is an old video it just feels prescient. I am sorry!

im giving a talk in CA and it just happens to overlap with the LA yarn crawl. perfect time to end my 'I've never been to California' streak.

There's a war on for your mind.

And the big cultural push around “big tech reform” is the idea that we’re protecting children from the harms of big tech, when we’re actually giving big tech the very power they seek to destroy the world for all children. And that is no longer hyperbolic when Palantir is announcing it via manifesto

New illegal boat strike in the Caribbean yesterday. Boat strikes' civilian death toll now stands at 182. 18 in the past 9 days.

cabbage rolls are such an underrated food. except now they are rating them I guess.

Stet is a Latin word (meaning "let it stand") used in proofreading to indicate that a previously marked change is to be ignored.

Federal judge unloads on ‘unserious’ RFK Jr., says anti-trans policy showed his ‘cruelty’ Judge Mustafa T. Kasubhai vacated the “Kennedy Declaration,” finding it unlawfully attempted to override medical standards and restrict care for transgender youth.

Breaking: HHS’s ban on gender-affirming care is struck down. Rarely have I read a ruling this sharply worded.

“This case is one of a long list of examples of how a leader’s wanton disregard for the rule of law causes very real harm to very real people.”

like if you walked up to a professional basketball player wearing their teams merch and go 'basketball sucks right?'

it's just so strange to have people come up to me irl and say 'I love your videos, what do you think could upend quantum mechanics?!?' and I have to be like 'I don't think you understand the question you are asking. Did you watch any of the quantum videos?' and then they get disappointed.

the issue with my videos is that I look like I am going to make a 'physicists can't explain why planes fly' video but in reality I make a ' 'physicists can't explain why planes fly' ' video and then people get mad at me in the comments. I know this...and yet I still make the video.

it seems rude to make a video disecting an immoral business model I wouldn't have known about it you didn't email me all the details. but you emailed me all the details!

there is a guy running a business that is basically giving motivational talks to ceos who fall for ai hype. the whole talk is 'you're right! its real, its scary!'

the guy is making big money. he emailed me to collaborate because he thought we would be on the same page. ridiculous.

is the 'dangerously capable AI' in the room with us right now?

All the grifters running the 'if anyone builds it we all die' track deserve the same end as the original AI grifters.

TODAY: Folks in Texas are protesting the Dilley ICE detention center, demanding the Trump administration shut it down.

Signs read: NO KIDS IN CAGES.

This is truly despicable behavior from @VivekGRamaswamy .

@amyactonoh is a survivor who pulled herself out of abuse and poverty to become a doctor and to serve Ohioans.

Ramaswamy has just revealed all we need to know.
