True story, after centuries of Romanov incompetence, the Czar was going to pull and all nighter and fix everything -- but then the revolution happened!
Rina Lu🇷🇺@rinalu_
The Russian Empire was weeks away from universal education in 1917. Then the revolution happened, and set it back by a decade. You were never told this. Here's what the numbers actually show. 🧵👇 By 1914, literacy was rising quickly. In cities it reached 60–70%, and among army recruits it exceeded 70–80%. Recruits were not an elite group, they came largely from the peasantry. If the army was receiving literate young men, it meant that education had already penetrated rural Russia.

"One side can try to punish the world’s economies in an attempt to gain leverage with the other side," says the representative of a government that has spent the past four decades imposing secondary sanctions and punishing every country, company, or bank that has dared to do business with Iran.
Ambassador Mike Waltz@michaelgwaltz
Regardless of how you feel about the conflict over their nuclear program, Iran laying sea mines indiscriminately in international waters and attempting to “toll” civilian commercial shipping is illegal and unacceptable. Unfortunately there will be future conflicts and whether it’s the Straits of Malacca or Gibraltar or Hormuz, the world cannot allow the precedent to stand that one side can try to punish the world’s economies in an attempt to gain leverage with the other side. The US and our Gulf partners will lead the way to defend global freedom of navigation.

He knows he will be punished. He knows his livelihood could be taken away. He knows he’ll be harassed and hounded by the parasites, whose money, power, and control over society dwarfs entire nations. But he spoke truth to power anyway. He deserves the applause. And the world deserves and needs more people to do the same.

Professor Derek R. Peterson, a University of Michigan historian and MacArthur Genius Grant recipient, thanked “pro-Palestinian student activists” during a graduation speech today, for “opening our hearts to the injustices and inhumanity of Israel’s war in Gaza.” Peterson teaches history and African studies at the University of Michigan, where he also became chair of the faculty senate in 2025.

"To give you a sign of the desperate measures [Iran is] contemplating, the Wall Street Journal reported today that they're contemplating suicide dolphins, you know, dolphins equipped with mines to try to go after U.S. ships," @ksadjadpour says. "That's not a that's not a measure which projects real strength."

Many of the “AI” interventions mentioned here are the equivalent of paying for a gym that has machines that lift weights for you. I don’t mean it’s sort of like that, I mean, in educational contexts, it’s the exact same logic. It’s absurd in its face. I feel like I’m going insane
The New Yorker@NewYorker
Jessica Winter has been raising her children to detest A.I. Then her daughter’s public middle school began receiving Google Chromebooks, which came pre-installed with an all-ages version of Gemini, a suite of A.I. tools. “When my daughter, who is in sixth grade, begins writing an essay, she gets a prompt: ‘Help me write,’ ” Winter writes. “If she is starting work on a slide-show presentation, the prompt is ‘Help me visualize.’ She shoos away these interruptions, but they persist: ‘Help me edit.’ ‘Beautify this slide.’ ” Proponents of generative A.I. in elementary and middle schools argue that such early exposure will foster digital-media literacy, and prepare them for a future in which most professions are steeped in A.I. But the technology also poses significant cognitive and social-emotional risks to young people. Read Winter’s report about A.I.’s infiltration into schools—and what it could mean for young minds: newyorkermag.visitlink.me/NSWuBG

The level of complicity of the @BBC in the ethnic cleansing of southern Lebanon is shocking. I am listening to their Jerusalem correspondent report that the ‘IDF are striking Hezbollah targets’ while I’m on the ground in the middle of it watching men, women and children being killed on a daily basis. My colleagues are being executed. Paramedics are being systematically murdered. All of this is happening in plain sight and the BBC correspondent here in Lebanon knows it.
May you all be put on trial for your deadly propaganda when the time comes. Shame on all of you, especially those on the ground who are too cowardly to speak out.

If people like Rhodes are going to treat backing a genocide as a mere policy disagreement among old pals rather than a profound moral transgression then they should explain why they view Palestinians as subhuman

You may think you sound like the adult in the room, but you actually reveal yourself as being 1) incredibly ignorant or 2) incredibly dishonest or 3) both.

What is going on in Gaza is heartbreaking and must be addressed but it is not a genocide.

Remember Rachel Corrie.
She wrote emails home about olive trees, children’s laughter, and a land that deserved to live, and then she stood in front of a bulldozer with nothing but her body and her belief in humanity.
They crushed her, but they could not bury what she saw, or what she chose to defend.
23 years old.
Not a weapon, just a witness.
Not a threat, just a conscience.
Her last act was to stand between violence and a home.
Ours is to remember… and refuse to look away.
