And at a time when right-wing anti-intellectualism demands robust defense of the academy, Yale's faculty prostrates itself before the cancel-culture trope, calling on the likes of Haidt and his so-called Heterdox Academy. Spineless Quislingism.

The faculty report also falls back on outmoded and crude means of judging intelligence--SAT and test scores and GPAs and curves--which further disadvantage students without privileged educations just as DEI is practically outlawed. That and digital Luddism.

The one lesson from what Trump says that we should take seriously is: The rest is up to us. Until and unless he is stopped by the force of public voice and institutional power, he and his henchmen will continue to destroy. Shout at every turn. Demand institutional support.

Trump believes neither precedent nor law, norm nor ethic applies to him. ('Why can't I appeal the decision of the court of last resort?' he mewls.) He thinks he can get away with anything--and why not, for so far, every American and international institution has allowed him to.

For that matter, if the current president tells the people of Iran to rise up and replace their duly installed government, what does that say to the populace of any other nation, including his own? Is he legitimizing revolution?

This "administration" does not think ahead to precedent. Forcing a former president to testify before Congress is a precedent for forcing the current (soon, not soon enough former) president to testify. Fuck around and be fucked with is the lesson they cannot learn.

2026-02-28 20:09:14 UTC

If the US has set a precedent of deposing or killing leaders of sovereign nations because they are "bad people," why could some decent-minded force elsewhere in the world not see the opening to depose the current head of the US because he's awful? Where's the line?

I'm a clumsy oaf and idiot. Stripping the bed last Sunday to wash the sheets, I pulled too hard (or not hard enough) on the bedding I had too tightly tucked. The bedding resisted. My bare feet flew out from under me. I rose up and came down hard on my back. My thud and curse were heard throughout the house. Finally went to the doctor today, as I hobble and groan still. Who knew that socks could be such torture? CT scan showed compression fracture in my L3 and other stuff. Age and stupidity.

I disagree with this decision: People on Twitter need the Guardian's journalism more than anyone.

Morning Joe is taking a wait-and-see attitude to Hegseth's comfirmation. No. IT IS FUCKING INSANE AND DESTRUCTIVE TO THE INSTITUTION. Somebody say so.

I study the dying institution of mass media. They believe in their myth, that it is their manifest destiny to serve all. They tried not to offend those who would never read them and thus offended those who did: past tense. Fascists have their media; the rest of us do not.

Sigh. The media trope that voters need to learn more about Harris. Well then, do you job and inform them. That's your job....

Geriatrics professor scolds #BrokenTimes for ascribing Trump derangement to age: "The article reports a concerning progressive loss of cognitive function and behavioral control that is unlikely to be simply 'normal' aging."

Me to journalists: "You let yourselves be exploited by these malign forces to spread their bigotry and bile, cushioned with your white-gloved euphemisms and sane-washing. You do not explain blood libel to your readers. Is that because you do not recognize it yourself?"

Worse even than the #BrokenTimes's normalizing or bothsidesing, this laughs off Trump's severe derangement & mental disability, making the dangerous cute and the writer clever. Stop!

The Times' dismissal of "identify politics" is the northern-white-liberal equivalent of Republicans calling @KamalaHarris the DEI candidate. She is the target of blatant racism, which The Times still refuses to name. Instead, it engages in this incipient racism: telling the Black woman to shush.
The Times is worse than broken. The Times damages democracy. 2/

Times' latest whiteglove euphemism: "timewarn tactic."
IT IS RACISM. Call it by its name.

It would be nice if The Times would give readers the context that many experts think "superintelligence," AGI, and "super alignment" are all bullshit.

This is *terrible.* Stanford buckles under to Jim Jordan & litigation, dismantling the Stanford Internet Observatory (retreating to safe subjects like child porn). Alex Stamos & Renee DiResta, both gone, call this "a quintessential example of the weaponization of government." h/t Casey Newton

I would declare publishers to be the most guilty parties in screwing up the web with their attention economy of advertising importated into it, their flooding of the net with crap under their belief that they must fill any vessel with their content, their fraudulent clickbait, and their walls.
You?
