I'm back, I missed you all.

Since this is an important subject I know too much about, here's a 🧵 explaining that

I don't think these people should make policy. (1/?)

I miss my kids.

(Nothing bad happened. They're just at school. But I work at home and got used to them being around all summer.)

Given all the *flails hands* you all deserve one of the most adorable pictures I took of Baby Bird Season 2026. A snowy ploverlet peeking through a little sand shrub.

Perhaps a once in a lifetime shot. 🪶 🐣

Dude I love how all the Toyota pickups from the 80s look just like toy trucks. My inner 5 year old wants one so bad 😅

Today I told my manager at my new job that I was gonna be working on 2 projects in parallel . . . unless he thought one of them was more important and I should just focus on it.

A couple hours later he let me know one of the projects had been reassigned.

I think I might have a decent manager here.

You never hear anyone who’s not a politician saying “I’m not a politician.” Imagine walking outside and saying to your neighbor “I’m not a politician.”

I would be shocked to discover ed sheeran has any beliefs, if I’m being honest I’d be shocked to discover that he has any internality whatsoever. There certainly isn any on display in his music, just a bland absence.

if you wonder 'why does it feel like all the expertise is draining out of the public sphere' then you kinda have to grapple with the fact that displaying expertise is often an all expenses paid trip to the omelas hole

I know this is not going to fix anything, but how much media coverage and how much groundswell of excitement from the base do you think would happen if one of these dem candidates just said, once in their lives, what the fuck are you talking about you sound like a dumb asshole right now

Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei called for AI companies to slow the pace of development as concerns mount over risks associated with the technology.

“The restaurant and bodega menus look too wormy, maggoty, putrescent, and crawling,” Amodei wrote.

9/11 marks the beginning of the American Century of Humiliation, not because of the attack itself, which rallied the world to our side, but because our response tipped a series of dominoes degrading our national character. Wars of choice, ICE and border closure, torture.
9/11 ANOTHER WORLD WAS POSSIBLE
We could have responded by putting the terrorists on trial—as the overwhelming majority of our NATO allies’ population (and the rest of the world) wanted.
Instead, we responded with war—just what the terrorists wanted. It made them warriors, not criminals.
