Instagram done lost its MFing mind with Instagram Maps. Why would I want anyone to know or want to know where people I follow are at any given moment? Trying to make surveillance fun is nasty work. Y’all better turn off your location services on these Meta apps, all of them really

My grandpa calls 11am mass β€œbaptist mass” because of just this reason. He’s either going on Saturday or at 7am because he refuses to shut through all that β€œsinging and clapping and carrying on.”

The media coverage of the dismissal of the BLS commissioner as another β€œwild time in Trumpland” shows that the media is more committed to entertainment than news. Any reputable news organization should report what the BLS does, why it is important, and why its work should not be politicized.

This thread is a fascinating introduction to said potential writing. As someone without kids, I had no idea of the state of things.

The logic is just broken 😑

I've learned so much from Melanie Mitchell's thoughtful columns. During a pivotal period when AI discourse generated more heat than light, her essays provided wise, evidence-based analysis covering remarkable breadth. This compelling column on role-playing's impact on LLM performance is an exemplar.

As @bakerdphd.bsky.social said, this season’s writers are out of control. This timeline could use more believable plots.

I get it. I didn’t mean to imply that you did anything intentional or needed to do something. I assumed the thumbnail was just what automatically came up with the link and was directing my ire at Forbes.

They have until October 1 to start reporting on β€œaircraft equipped with weather modification devices” or risk having their funding pulled/delayed. So, the scramble seems to be around defining WTH a β€œweather modification device” is.

I truly god damn hate this characterization

Especially having lived through the lead up.

They're mental health issues have nothing to do with the sane people who went to their Nazi dinners, who helped them terrorized colleagues of color , who called them good conversation

their entitlement does
