If Gabbard and Vance weren’t in this administration, they’d be protesting against it.

Tulsi left the Democratic Party warning that Hillary would drag us into useless wars. She said Trump would run as a “peace president” and Stephen Miller had the audacity to say Kamala would take us into WW3.

The average college student today How things have changed

I read this thoughtful substack and I have a kid in college and one that just graduated. They literally weren't taught how to read/write: features.apmreports.org/sold-a-story/

Those that can, had a teacher or two who snuck in phonics in defiance of their bosses.

is life just a series of days where you're tired in the afternoon and wide awake at night, running behind on weekly deadlines, and seeing pants get slim and big and then slim again over the years until you die?

How dare an advertiser co-opt pro choice language and the lives of those who have been taken due to the Dobbs decision in the past years. All because over weight people (I'm including myself here) don't like the judgement of others. At least they haven't made being fat illegal, like abortion is.

Predicting an IT Support mutiny soon. AI chatbots as "first line" support just marinate customers in rage. By the time I finally bypass the bot to reach a human, I’m livid. Agents aren't solving tickets anymore; they're just catching grenades.

Before You Become a Gemini Certified Educator Be careful what you tie your name to.

I'm seeing a lot of Gemini Certified Educators in my social media feeds. This is a good time to think critically about Gemini, how it is developed, and how it could impact (possibly harm) K-12 education. Be careful what you attach your name to.

Kirk didn't serve in the military or hold office. The war hero treatment -- half-mast flags, military guard, Air Force Two escort, calls for a statue at the Capitol or to lie in the Rotunda -- shows that for MAGA, service to Trump has become the highest, most honorable form of service.

Namecheap and Squarespace are enabling a website that far-right extremists are using to target people they feel have said the wrong things about Charlie Kirk’s death.

If you’re looking for more companies to boycott.

Every tech update now is like: "Great news, the word processor you've relied on for twenty years has learned to juggle! Is it good at it? No! Does it help in any way? Of course not! Has it made it insufferable to use? Oh, absolutely."

Question: Is there room for you and Mamdani in the Democratic Party?

Phillips: The answer, ultimately, I think, is no

When you have socialists in the Democratic Party, I don't know how anybody could argue that that would be beneficial for the party or for the country

Everyone like this needs to be hounded out of the Democratic Party. These are people who genuinely believe a permanent Trump/GOP trifecta is a better outcome than policy being slightly left of their preferences. They are a major reason why millions of people who agree with Dems don't bother to vote.
