Holy shit: When Will Lewis was newly-hired Publisher and CEO of the Washington Post, he offered NPR media reporter David Folkenflik an exclusive story about the paper's future in exchange for him killing a story about Lewis' involvement in covering up criminal activity at Rupert Murdoch's tabloids.

When you see the everyday decency of regular people, it puts the behavior of our "elites" into rather stark relief. (tl;dr 23-year-old juror impaneled on a pandemic nonprofit fraud case is offered $120K in cash and *immediately* turns it in. Wild story, a credit to local reporting. Gift link.)

When AirTags first came out and I warned that they were Apple's gift to stalkers, so many Apple fanboys told me that I was overreacting.

Legitimate question- How is this legal? How is this not being immediately challenged by big companies who make artists sign dozens of NDA's? How is it not considered a threat to free expression? Art isn't a personal record or raw consumer data. Our privacy laws DESPERATELY need an update.

I've fretted a bit recently over whether The Originalism Trap would be "a success"
But tonight I was carrying a big sign from an event & two lil old ladies asked me what it was for
We chatted on the sidewalk for a bit about the subject, & that feels like a success to me

This guy says in the replies that this was 7-10 years ago but it makes you wonder how many companies are still doing it like this with 100% human labor. We already know every AI company is doing this with some degree of human intervention, they just call it “training the model.”

I remember a 1960s "guidebook" (a funny one) that suggested if you wanted to pick someone up, say "Didn't we ball at the festival?"

You don't get to say 'we regret that the protesters escalated' and 'community safety is our top priority' when the protesters are students who haven't hurt anybody and your response was calling in, like, a hundred unaccountable guys with guns

Really what Bluesky needs is a feature where you can set your "how extremely fucking over people I am right now and how close I am to snapping" level on a slider so when someone goes to reply to you they can see "oooh, she's at 94% to hulk mode, maybe I shouldn't"

This is a bad decision by Columbia’s administration. Maybe you’d like it if these teenagers had let’s say more considered political opinions. The problem is the people most excited for this sort of police action do have well worked-out views, and they’re authoritarians who hate universities.

Genocide is not 'normal' and that's what the students have been saying through their protests. they are saying that it is abnormal and that it needs to be stopped. I'm so grateful to them for making this apparent. It's one of the reasons they are being so harshly and violently punished.

The whole backlash against CRT, DEI, student protest, everything is a backlash to 2020. Black folks keep pointing this out and I keep asking everyone else to please see and say this

Dear University Presidents: They are coming for you. They don’t care if you give in to every single demand, roll over and play dead. They are coming for you. Stop treating this like a good faith inquiry from civic minded leaders. It’s a hit job.
