Catholics do a great job of this. Nobody who went to CCD has ever joined a cult. They're too burned out.

Saoirse is in an afterschool program, and today she excitedly told me all about the SMART test for evaluating the credibility of information (source, motivation, author, review, two-sources).
I can think of a lot of adults who would benefit from this class designed for 4th and 5th graders.

my worry about ai isn’t that it will become sentient, it’s that the cognitive impact of outsourcing critical thinking to computers combined with the proliferation of slop making it increasingly challenging to validate information will dissolve society’s already-tenuous grasp on consensus reality

I don’t think most people know that for about half of US history, there was no such thing as illegal immigration. People just immigrated. It wasn’t until racists made laws in attempts to keep away the people they didn’t like that the country suddenly needed immigration “status.”

This is low-level propaganda that elides the real story, which is that the younger candidate in this race is an anti-trans clown and the older candidate is one of the Senate's strongest progressives.
Please vote for Markey in MA, friends. The old guy is the only choice here.

Y'all. I know you're tired of my running on about this, and I *want* to give you a break over the weekend, but I CAN'T fail these cats.
They need a HOME. They're affectionate, relaxed and in decent health, and their issues are MINOR and EASILY MANAGEABLE. All we need is to find That Person.

Do not normalize children dying from measles. Measles was previously eliminated in the US, thanks to vaccines.
When children die from measles, it means that adults have catastrophically failed to protect them because they have rejected basic science.

Hey all, if you are looking to adopt cats in the Northeast, this is for you.
UPDATE: Yes, their owner passed away Thursday. We're taking them in today, but as I said, that CAN'T be permanent; they NEED a HOME NOW. We're willing to drive pretty much anywhere in the Northeast for the right adopter.
We're begging.
We're begging.
Morning people: yep, looks like the ONE nibble is now ghosting. Going to Kevin's apartment today to start cleanout & get the cats, then we're bringing them here. They HAVE to stay closed in our bedroom, so they're safe for now, but one room is NO way to live the rest of their life.
Please. SOMEONE.
