They have easily the coolest Confederate monument.
They really did future proof it from ever being removed.

@ChristopherHale Now if only we can design humans who cannot perpetrate war devoid of human conscience…

I told CNN today that Pope Leo XIV views Silicon Valley’s original sin as thinking they’re greater than God.
That’s why the first U.S.-born pontiff has called for a “disarmed” AI that cannot perpetrate war devoid of human conscience.
That’s why he wants to partner with Christopher Olah and @AntrophicAI, who courageously stood up to the Pentagon.
He wants to work together to build an AI that serves humanity.

An ugly scene at the end of the game.
Texas Tech starts talking to the fans and making hand gestures and the teams do not shake hands.
Keagan Rothrock’s dad, Greg Rothrock, was seen getting berated by a Red Raider fan at the end of the game as well.

Zoomers would struggle to understand what coffee used to be like outside of maybe a half dozen neighborhoods in New York.

Better economic analysis from Wallace Shawn than 99% of what we see here: “In a way, I’m still downwardly mobile from my parents…But I don’t think my mother ever had a cappuccino. So am I downwardly mobile or upwardly mobile? Because I can have cappuccinos all the time.” interviewmagazine.com/film/wallace-s…

Pete Hegseth: “The single dumbest phrase in military history is ‘Our diversity is our strength.’”
Actually, the single dumbest phrase in military history is “Secretary of War Pete Hegseth.”
Pete said this to West Point’s Class of 2026, which is 21% women and 40% non-white.

@MatthewKeysLive MAGA is never ever again allowed to complain about “canceling” and “speech police”

Paramount is apparently trying to suppress copies of "Only in Monroe" from appearing on other social platforms by filing frivolous copyright notices, even though the show was produced by a public access TV channel and doesn't use their intellectual property...

Just one day after ending "The Late Show" on CBS, Stephen Colbert returned to TV — to host a public access show with rocker Jack White in Monroe, Michigan. Appearances by Jeff Daniels, Eminem and Steve Buscemi.

Trump posts a meme of his political foes in prison jumpsuits, including "Barack Hussein Obama"

@jason_kint The Uday and Qusay Hussein depravity analogy becomes more apt

NYT out with a jaw dropping investigative report on the Commodity Futures Trading Commission. 60 Minutes reported last Sunday on some of this, too. The NYT report is a must-read, the 60 Minutes report should then be watched. 1/3

This guy helps create a global catastrophe and then notices that his dumb policy has left Iran stronger. So of course what's needed is even more war.
Lindsey Graham@LindseyGrahamSC
If a deal is struck to end the Iranian conflict because it is believed that the Strait of Hormuz cannot be protected from Iranian terrorism and Iran still possesses the capability to destroy major Gulf oil infrastructure, then Iran will be perceived as being a dominate force requiring a diplomatic solution. This combination of Iran being perceived as having the ability to terrorize the Strait in perpetuity and the ability the inflict massive damage to Gulf oil infrastructure is a major shift of the balance of power in the region and over time will be a nightmare for Israel. Also, it makes one wonder why the war started to begin with if these perceptions are accurate. I personally am a skeptic of the idea that Iran cannot be denied the ability to terrorize the Strait and the region cannot protect itself against Iranian military capability. It is important we get this right.
