You could actually structure your moral code around the idea that law enforcement doesn't exist to execute people. You don't have to create perfect victim narratives, you can just refuse to accept that the state gets to kill people.
The conflation of LLMs with other things called AI (like chess engines that are actually amazing at playing chess) is one of the biggest contributing factors to how fucked up everything is. So many people believe LLMs think.
These men take these jobs because they like to abuse women. This is not an aberration - it’s what cops do.
NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen.
Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.
I saw the Washington Post editorial on redistricting today and this is my official response.
How is this not an @theonion.com headline?
"How do you expect to win back men...?"
We don't want those men. They are the hot dogs on the floor of humanity and we still have all these nice prepped hamburger patties if someone would just let them cook.
Proud papa moment: my son J published a letter in the @nytimes.com today (in print tomorrow) on the need to think our definitions of autism.
it’s kinda funny how you can have it cornered and still not get it
rough!

no letters, off by one, four tries to get the first letter. weird.
I think: knowing how to code with AI assistance: absolutely an essential skill for developers to have.
enshittifying everything by putting AI into everything consumer-facing? no, thanks.
Like… it's kind of right there, no?
i’d love to know who hurt them so badly. was it oracle? it was probably oracle.
Most home runs in a season, made multiple pitching starts, MLB history:
2025 Shohei Ohtani: 53
2021 Shohei Ohtani: 46
2023 Shohei Ohtani: 44
2022 Shohei Ohtani: 34
Things have been a deep kind of dark for a while, but this is… this a different thing.
My ray of absurd hope in all of this is that the censuring of jimmy goddam kimmel of all people seems to have been the additive needed to cross a significant normie "WTF is happening" threshold. So there's that.
What else do you need, I mean? Is it just because people REALLY don't want to listen to their victims?
trump can issue as many executive orders as he wants, perhaps coverage should reflect the fact that a lot of these have the legal force of a child's wishlist for santa
Use your website as your linktree and stop using linktree 🥲🥲🥲
Even better if your linktree links to your website, you're wasting clicks in a click hungry world!
I have lost all patience with the apparently unshakeable conviction that striking a reasonable, moderate pose means assuming the sincerity of transparently pretextual horseshit. Donald Trump does not care about reducing crime in DC. He is testing and normalizing paramilitary deployments in cities.
Boiling the frog works. Martial law being declared in the nation's capital city is barely a trending topic and we're not even through the first year of the administration.
It’s been really surprising to me how many people don’t know how bad Substack is. If that’s you, no worries, check it out: leavesubstack.com
Now the debate is about which Nazi party is more fiscally conservative.
Sorry, Mamdani has seized the memes of production
Is there an AI for taking all the tissues out of my clothes' pockets before running the wash?
More to the point, it's not just "religion" that works like this. How you know something (epistemology) and what things are real (ontology) are core philosophies of science just as much as they are of "belief."
amtrak’s marketing team gets it
And that's been what's wrong with so much of how NYT and other anti-trans media have approached this: they're acting like trans people are making demands for MORE rights when we're really mostly just asking for our EXISTING rights to not go away. It's a sleight of hand. They know what they're doing.
Anil gets it. A lot of critics are still in their "put the toothpaste back in the tube" phase with AI. We are well past that. We have to address what it is today.
But I also know that telling people this doesn't actually help them get past that phase.
