Irrepressibly drab and awful

- I don't know what this means, but I'm the one who wrote a fully updated, 624-page hurricane response plan at FEMA that took over 2 years of work and careful coordination among state and federal agencies. He could start by studying that.
- Breaking WSJ: The newly appointed head of FEMA acknowledged in private meetings that with two weeks to go until hurricane season, the agency doesn't yet have a fully formed disaster-response plan. www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

- Basically traps AI crawlers and sends them down an "infinite maze" of static files with no exit links, where they get stuck and thrash around for months. Once trapped, the crawlers can be fed gibberish data, aka Markov babble, which is designed to poison AI models arstechnica.com/tech-policy/...

- “Newsom is well on his way to self-satire as a former liberal who’s so obsessed with becoming president that he develops a reflex of punching down — at immigrants, the homeless, farmworkers, people living paycheck to paycheck.”

- Every photo of RFKJr looks like that frame in the horror movie when they've just replaced the actor with the practical effects dummy that is about to have its head explode, or face melt, or turn into The Thing

- So they want to ban middle grade dystopian fiction--along with the histories of systemic violence and discrimination--so we won't know where they get their utterly psychotic ideas, is that right?

- DOGE got the idea that 40% of calls *to change direct deposit* information were fraud, musk misunderstood and/or misrepresented that to mean 40% of *all calls* were fraud, and because DOGE started from the false premise that SS fraud was widespread, no one questioned the outcomes

- political journalists obsess over the public’s lack of trust in our profession but strangely see that as downstream of things like “we didn’t talk enough about how biden was old” and not “many of us appear to be indifferent to a nihilistic attack on the constitution”
- whenever i travel to speak to audiences — in places as different as green bay, wisconsin and durham, north carolina — i get more questions about why the media won’t call a spade a spade with trump, than i do about biden being old
- and honestly, the obsession over “we should have said more about biden being old” starts to grate when the currently serving president is very obviously impaired by age and cognitive decline, to crickets from the press
- Please stop posting screenshots of snippets of articles without also posting a link to the damn article. What is the point of this annoying behavior
