This might be the greatest split-screen ever broadcast.

They’ll play this in museums in future.

Annie Abrams is doing some of the best commentary on ongoing efforts to make k-12 teaching increasingly rigid and unimaginative, with teachers themselves enjoined to be little more than automatons. Strong pressure to use teaching scripts — scripts that encourage children to memorize but not think.

there's so much bad in the world but there's also people who lift up and carry an elderly bat around every day so he can pretend he's flying again, and that's the part of the world I think is worth fighting for

This should not be as funny to me as it is

Nope, no fascism to see here.

It is becoming clear that AI doesnt save time or money. It's a cheating machine, which is also helpful at fixing grammar, coming up w/ recipes, & making revenge porn. So the thing to do is keep investing in new tech & not the things we know are valuable in the economic, humanist, & civic senses.

The connections among Epstein, AI oligarchs, cognitive scientists, eugenicists, misogynists, rapists, and outright fascists are so strong it's stunning that they are not outlined in every account of AI development and deployment.

If you are bullish on AI you might want to check yourself.

The Kennedy Center.
New monuments.
Wrecking ball to history funding and interpretive expertise and access.

Arts and humanities are the most powerful stuff of society and we all know it.

rightwingers see people caring about others in their community and instead of finding that inspiring they think it’s some sort of grand conspiracy because they don’t understand what it means to care for others you don’t personally know

CBP chief Bovino has confirmed that the officers who executed Alex Pretti in the street yesterday are not only *not on administrative leave,* they have all been reassigned to other jurisdictions and are all on the street today.

This is totally unheard of for any officer-involved shooting

The fact that every right winger with influence screams "who is paying for all of this" tells you exactly how awash in cash they all are, and how much they rely on that to keep their movement afloat.

Remembering how cops tossed Kyle Rittenhouse - who was open carrying a semiautomatic rifle - a bottle of water and told him, “We appreciate you… we really do”

why some people be mad at me sometimes they ask me to remember but they want me to remember their memories and i keep on remembering mine. Lucille Clifton

Reminder in the face of all the angry gaslighting propaganda.

In case it's unclear: Trump's Board of Peace is an autocratic takeover of the world. He'll wield "peace" like a cudgel--'that's a nice country you've got there, I'd hate to see something happen to it.' Any country that signs has pledged its fealty to a madman crime boss.

kinda feels like they already lost it. (also, what a thing to say out loud)

Note that the fascist is not using the pepper spray for crowd control. He is entering a vehicle unimpeded to depart. He is simply using the pepper spray to physically punish an unarmed citizen he doesn't like.

If calling a state secret police agent a murderer for committing murder will lead to more murder by the state secret police, it sure seems like the problem is with the secret police

The goal here is martial law. It’s martial law. Let’s be clear about that.

Isn't AI good at pattern recognition?

Only a few hours after ICE agent Jonathan Ross shot and killed Minneapolis resident and mother Renee Good on January 7, federal immigration enforcement agents descended onto Roosevelt High School property during school dismissal as students were exiting the building. MFE members say that ICE agents tackled and detained a school staff member and union member who was working at the time. The MFE member was since released, according to a union spokesperson. The agents also deployed a chemical irritant against students and staff on school grounds, MFE says. A school official, speaking to MPR News on condition of anonymity, said many students sheltered in a nearby library.

Kind of wild there has been almost no coverage of the fact that the federal government unleashed chemical weapons against literal kids *at school*.

They want to send the message that they will murder anyone who tries to hold them accountable and who isn’t 100% compliant with their illegal demands.

Find me a piece of ed tech from the past thirty years that's genuinely more about student learning than it is about extracting more labor from fewer teachers. Can't be done!

My husband and I were convinced we were the only people who had seen it! It sets my teeth on edge, fr

The legacy media narrative has been unified in claiming that Jeffrey Epstein abused minors. But how can anyone report that without interviewing Jeffrey Epstein? I asked Alan Dershowitz.

CBS paid the president of the United States millions in bribe money and now they censor news reports so it does not annoy him. I don’t know how much plainer we can put this.

Richard Grenell @RichardGrenell X.com Alfonsi is a nightmare rogue activist. She doesn't own the company and doesn't have the sole authority on accuracy. What an ego to think she gets to decide what's news. She has bosses who decide. l'd fire her for insubordination.

Richard Grenell The story wasn't worthy of air. It was biased. Workers aren't whistleblowers when they refuse to cooperate with standards and policies. Your anonymous Federal employment antics are troubling too. You are a total coward.

Richard Grenell Dylan doesn't know what happened. These biased radical reporters make stuff up all the time. "I'm told"?!? By whom? The boss of the Newsroom says Dylan is a liar. And Dylan's history of pushing the Russian collusion narrative and defending Hunter Biden shows he's got left Show more

Don’t worry, guys. Special envoy to the president Ric Grenell wants you to know that the CBS thing is totally on the up and up, and not to please the admin. He’s proving that by demanding CBS fires people.
