I read this LinkedIn post from someone who was complaining about thinking about agents 24/7. When pressed on what types of software this guy was creating with the agents, he couldn't explain one useful app. Instead, he became defensive.
Sorry to get radical but I don’t think it’s my job or yours to embrace, accept, understand - and certainly not to use - the thing being sold to us as AI. I don’t like any part of it, so I won’t. I’m missing out? Good, that’s what I want. You’re worried about me missing out? That’s fuckin weird, man.

Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

Jane Goodall, the influential primatologist who changed how people see chimpanzees and themselves, died Wednesday at the age of 91.

She died of natural causes while she was in California on a speaking tour, the Jane Goodall Institute said in a statement on social media.

GOOD DAY AMERICA!

Today, #HandsOff protests against the Trump administration are happening across the country and our journalists are spread far and wide to cover it all. 🫡

Want to tune in? Here's who to follow 🧵:

About half way through, Senator Cory Booker clearly stated that a historian pointed out to him that Congress has had very little power in the past to stop demagogues. He said that they were stopped by people, everyday citizens, standing up. #resist #goodtrouble
"There's a room here in the Senate named after Strom Thurmond... I'm here despite his speech, I'm here because as powerful as he was, the people were more powerful." -Cory Booker as he eclipses Thurmond's record for the longest filibuster in US history.

Over 110,000 people across three channels are watching Senator Cory Booker live on YouTube, and he has disrupted the Senate's workday forcing them to postpone confirming nominations and other activities.

yall we can’t collectively screech that “no one’s doing anything!” and then say “no not like that” when someone actually does something.

is Booker’s filibuster gonna save the world? of course not. but since courage begets courage it could lead to more. I’m fucking cynical as hell but come on.

Thank you, Cory Booker, for telling people's stories, for causing good trouble, for doing something!
I’m heading to the Senate floor because Donald Trump and Elon Musk have shown a complete disregard for the rule of law, the Constitution, and the needs of the American people. You can tune in on CSPAN, YouTube, X, and Facebook.

I am so fucking mad just all the time now.
Can’t even begin to imagine how they’re going to vandalize the National Museum of African American History and Culture and the American Women’s History Museum.
Last week, while visiting several Smithsonian museums, I kept wondering how long it would take for this administration to direct exhibits to be pulled. Not long, it turns out. 🗃️ www.whitehouse.gov/fact-sheets/...

NO KINGS LIVE HERE.

Did they actually show this? #sotu
We just walked out of the state of the Union. My shirt showed Trump an important message: NO KINGS LIVE HERE.

In the spirit of student protestors from the Civil Rights Movement, I’m proud to have protested and walked out with many of my colleagues. This is NOT a normal time.

This will likely lead to a massive amount of data loss such as all of the product teardown data which is managed by Guidehouse. What happens to these massive (and expensive to create) databases?

Are you fucking kidding me? President Zelenskyy is surrounded by clowns.
Actual question from reporter: "Why don't you wear a suit?"

WaPo said it was "possibly AI generated". 😂
This morning at Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HQ in DC as mandatory return to office began, this video played on loop for ~5 mins on screens throughout the building, per agency source.

Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.

Excellent piece of hope in all of this chaos. "We are the leaders we've been waiting for."
If you are experiencing rage and despair about what is happening in America and the world right now because of the Trump-Vance-Musk regime, you are hardly alone. But a groundswell of opposition is growing. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/ten-reasons-for-optimism
