That's not true that's not how we improve at all!

For the record: The Washington Post is run by partisan hacks who think we won't remember that they took the *exact* opposite stance when it was Republicans pushing their own gerrymandering grab in Texas last year -- *without* putting it up for a vote.

Me, to my cat when I take my glasses off:

How do you make AI slop worse? Make it transphobic AI slop.

The rise of the shadow docket in 2016 was followed in 2017 by another procedural trick from the Roberts Court, known as "Munsingwear vacatur," which they weaponized to wipe out progressive precedent without having to explain why. Profs. Lisa Tucker (my wife) and Michael Risch (he's not) explain. 1/2

This story is crazy! The Jim Dolan had a Knicks fan obsessively monitored at games just because she was trans.

Panel 1 - Worf: Captain, you have an incoming transmission. Jellico: Thank you, Mr. Worf. I'll take it in my Ready Room. Panel 2 - <A transmission comes in from a oddly familar source> Panel 3 - Brak: Hey, buddy. What kind of musical instrument would you find in a bathroom? Panel 4 - Jellico: I have no idea whatsoever. Panel 5 - Brak: A tuba toothpaste! Panel 6 - Brak: ALL HAIL BRAK!

Oh my goodness. I just found a lost episode of Star Trek: Jellico! It got saved to a work drive folder, and was thought to be lost to time.

Until now.

Again: for any big liberal donor who wants to funnel millions into fixing this country's politics, the ROI on buying any struggling paper and simply tasking it with doing real reporting on local news is vastly higher than the same $$ given to some group that does mass ad buys every election year.

Tennessee Senate Passes Amended Trans Healthcare Tracking Bill As Tennessee State Senators came to the floor on Monday afternoon, about two dozen activists formed a wall in the hallway, singing to the lawmakers.

The Tennessee legislature has now passed the trans registry bill requiring all medical information about trans people, including therapy notes, diagnoses, and prescriptions be reported to the state so it can be published to the public.

Well shit. It’s @adapalmer.bsky.social and Bruce Schneier on language and LLMs. So here’s today must read for me.

The noodling piano in One Battle After Another is the real enemy.

The “Calvin’s dad explains two types” meme, inspired by a Calvin and Hobbes cartoon. Clockwise from top left: 1) Calvin’s dad walks into frame to find Calvin trying to operate a record player. The dad says: “There are only two industries left in America: gambling, and fraud.” 2) The dad shows where the record goes, and how to turn on the player, while Calvin watches. Dad says “Derivatives? Gambling. AI? Fraud. Video games? Gambling. Social media? Fraud.” Calvin says “yeah”. 3) With one hand open palm up, Calvin’s dad cheerfully explains to Calvin out of frame below him, “The stock market looks like gambling, but it’s actually fraud.” 4) In bed in a dark room, Calvin clutches at his pillow, eyes wide in existential terror. There is no text in the panel.

“Two can play at that game” is literally the Drebin quote here when he takes an innocent woman hostage to cluelessly fight the enemy

“It's a shame that the Pope has made the Catholic Church political” is one of the most amazing sentences ever uttered by a politician. Elite stuff. Arguably the most wrong a person could be, including rejecting basic arithmetic.

Lidsville still terrifies me.

I can’t be the only one who shouts “Bumpuses!” whenever the cats get the zoomies.
