Do they really think they can scare us with the word β€œsocialist” when they are literally sending out men in masks with no warrants and no badges to disappear people off American streets?

I know what I’m scared of, and it’s not a socialist.

ICE rolls in, LA rises up.πŸ”₯

If Stephen Miller was looking for immigrants to roll over and just take it from his ICE goons, he picked the wrong f*cking town. Between yesterday in LA City and Paramount today, the community is fighting back.

It's...interesting that the US media is so eager to condemn Biden and his handlers for hiding his aging and not for openly being an accessory to genocide.

(Imagine. Biden spent a lifetime trying to be a good person, and threw it all away for Netanyahu. Now he's destined for Hell.)

Alex Lawson: We're outside the Energy & Commerce committee with folks risking arrest to protest the destruction of Medicaid which is what Republicans are doing right now in the committee room.

This is so vague that it could ban the regulation of any kind of algorithm whatsoever; β€œautomated decision system” is an extremely broad term!

CBO estimates that the combined effect of Republican Medicaid proposals, allowing enhanced ACA premium tax credits to expire, and President Trump’s proposed ACA rules would increase the number of uninsured by 13.7 million. That would take us back to close to pre-ACA levels.

Hopefully this also finally prompts universities to find some backbone to stand up against similar unlawful threats.

I’m so tired of hearing Rubio & other rightwingers now claiming that if you’re on a green card you’re a β€˜guest’ in this country. BS. You’re a lawful permanent resident. The clue is in the name. If someone is a permanent resident in your home, are they the same as the guests who come and go? Come on.

🚨 New paper!

Medical AI benchmarks over-simplify real-world clinical practice and build on medical exam-style questionsβ€”especially in mental healthcare. We introduce MENTAT, a clinician-annotated dataset tackling real-world ambiguities in psychiatric decision-making.

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court GRANTS sweeping nationwide injunction against Trump DEI executive orders finding that they violate First and Fifth Amendments to the Constitution. A huge victory for @democracyforward.org and its clients. A stinging loss for Trump.

Definitely. I think lots of people are turning to LLMs for mental health. Cost effective and always available in addition to not shaking musical instruments in your face.
