Something about this is far more insidious than “Happy Pride from Raytheon”

This reads like a joke.

I mean, the owners were always more interested in tech and $$$ than fashion or shoes but … jeez.

The Golden Girls (1985-1992)

Ppl are like “you can vote out fascists” and like … yes, the U.S. already did that in 2020.

And, then the dum dums of the Biden administration dragged their feet and prosecuted no one letting the fascist come back.

Moral: the next administration needs to step up. Voters can’t do it alone.

Fml.

Siri, is it a good thing when the “toughest presidents” are from the other party?

Texas Tech System leader cancels academic programs “centered on” sexual orientation, gender identity Chancellor Brandon Creighton directed provosts to phase out the programs and ordered universities to recognize only “two human sexes.”

Texas Tech is expanding its prohibition on "gender and sexual orientation" topics to include faculty research and student theses and dissertations.

Our chancellor wants to censor the truth because he knows it topples the hateful ideology of MAGA.

Knowledge is power, so they plan to destroy it.

Just to be clear, this is what people and senators voted for.

Omg yes!

Hall of fame FT correction

CDC delays publishing report showing covid vaccine benefits The acting CDC director cited concerns with the methodology, but the design has long been used to test vaccine effectiveness.

Exclusive: The acting director of the CDC has delayed publication of a report showing the covid-19 vaccine cut the likelihood of ER visits and hospitalizations for healthy adults last winter by about half, according to two scientists.

I mean, I guess there’s two ways to get people to buy EVs.

Why MAGA men actually loathe tradwives A new study shows submissive women aren't cherished but are held in contempt

The right's pitch for women's submission is that it will cause men to provide, protect, and cherish women.

Turns out the opposite is true. Research shows conservative men see tradwives as lazy parasites. They loathe them.

a sex pest real estate guy who lost money on his casinos got elected president twice because he played a deals man on tv and then he destroyed the global economy. baudrilliard would die if he wasn't already dead.

Gives new meaning to “Amusing Ourselves to Death.”

When I was young I hated umbrellas too.

The NYT published a link to critical original reporting on Iran 45 minutes ago. A good, fair story. They have 53m followers. The engagement metrics you display say they got 94 likes and 33 retweets out of that. Is that accurate? And if so, shouldn't you work on a better algo? Image Nikita Bier @nikitabier It’s paywalled. If only 0.1% of users can derive value from the content, it will organically rank lower.

"Journalists should be on Twitter."

Twitter to journalism: "Drop dead."

The key to propaganda is repetition. The longer you spend on X, the more effective its propaganda.

I don’t disagree with the sentiment of this thread, and it’s been a number of years since I’ve been a server, but I’m willing to bet the vast majority of servers are not making $100K.

Jesus tweeting from the cave in the style of Trump

too soon?

This piece from @noamscheiber.bsky.social gets at a deeper frustration in this economy. Young people were told that college would be a path to stability. Reality? Too many ended up with debt, housing costs out of reach, and a labor market that no longer lives up to that expectation. 🧵

ok so i know i expressed some ambivalence about people who insist journalists should never use AI for anything but let me be very clear and on the record: this is a shanda and not journalism, not anything
