The way we were treated at Delaney Hall is almost unbelievable. ICE shoved me, manhandled
@repbonnie.bsky.social, and arrested Mayor Baraka.
They disrespected us and tried to stop us from conducting the oversight we’re elected to do. But we’ll never back down in our fight for what is right.
i think this shit is an affront to this country and its traditions
Constitution Avenue has been selected as the main route for Trump’s Jun. 14 military parade, so for once “trampling on Constitution” will be more than a metaphor for him.

Here's what we know about Trump's June 14 D.C. military parade
From the route to the music, permit applications give us a glimpse into the spectacle.

Trump picks conspiracy theorist with no medical license to be Surgeon General
Previous nominee was withdrawn amid claims she had misrepresented her medical education
Why not Marco Rubio? His credentials are equally as strong and he’s been collecting titles lately.

(Yeah, I know the answer. I just want to point out how both of these sides are thinking for those in the back.)

This article plants a clear flag marking our current path and is very much worth a read. But also this quote has had me cringing for 32 minutes.
nymag.com/intelligence...Isn't that AI's default setting?
No, its default setting is "write with the confidence of a middle-aged white man in a bar table with friends".
(I recognize the tone because I have often used it.)
Love Kamala but the MET Gala was tone deaf this year.
A Marie Antoinette moment by the rich at a time when the people are Sans-culotes.
This year the Met should have considered the climate & thought of doing a show with no labels, no Prada, etc.
The theme could've been reused/revisited/recycled!
“Black people wearing clothes is TONE DEAF”
Please. Come visit America.
Then get out. 🤡

All this talk about Trump changing the Republican Party and they're just running down a wishlist of every single thing conservatives have complained about for the last 50 years, no matter how small, and killing them all.

When asked if the United States should have a military parade to show off its might, President Eisenhower responded:
“Absolutely not. We are the pre-eminent power on Earth. For us to try and imitate what the Soviets are doing in Red Square would make us look weak.”
…y'all need to rehire all those DEI's because it seems like they were the ones who understood how aircraft carrier tie-downs work
Issa joke but…the military is more diverse than the general population and the logistics people tend to be…melanated
If we accept the truism that POC have to be twice as good as white ppl to advance to the same level, it seems like it would follow that getting rid of POC would disproportionately reduce the overall skill level.
Great article about the stakes facing museums and other public entities telling inclusive narratives. Free article for you.

I am amused by the framing of this article because you may as well accuse me of refusing to use a flame thrower in my work. I'm not refusing, it is of no use to me because I am a non-fictition writer. That's all.
Bizarrely framed article about the people (all women) who ‘refuse to use AI’. And a
#philosophy professor who says “The moment to opt out of
#AI has already passed”. Oh well. That’s that then. 🤷♂️
