Definitely not. I think that's entirely appropriate. But you should also be prepared to secretly infiltrate so you can train the mentats who will follow.

Just heard an interesting piece of advice from economist Justin Wolfers about how you should think about interacting with AI. He said, "Be the most savvy person about AI in your workplace."

Not in the world, just in your workplace. That way, you'll be the most prepared to handle whatever comes.

Stephen Miller is Grima Wormtongue, and Kristi Noem is Delores Umbridge.

Stephen Miller is Grima Wormtongue, and Kristi Noem is Delores Umbridge.

Republican Senator Thom Tillis (who is retiring and no longer has to kiss Trump's ass) describes the actual functional roles of Stephen Miller and Kristi Noem.

Reminder that, as of the latest reports, Liam Ramos is still in prison in Texas - now for 5 days.

His parents are legal asylum seekers with no criminal record.

Republicans in Congress. This is on you. Every bit of it. You could stop any or all of it today. Murders by ICE, arbitrary tariffs, ridiculous Greenland threats, undermining allies, massive corruption, destruction of our health system, loss of rights... It's all on you.

We won't forget.

If the founding fathers could see us today, I think they'd be impressed. "Wow," they'd say, "our experiment lasted almost 250 years. Not bad."

What's the difference between most of us and Donald Trump?

When someone screams "pedophile protector," most of us know it's not directed at us.

I sure hope they give Trump a Golden Globe Award tonight.

I mean, it even says "gold" in the name.

I can't imagine what destruction he'll cause if he doesn't get one.

They don't give out the Henrietta Award anymore (which was for World Favorite). They could just pretend it's still a thing.

The former โ€œdonโ€™t tread on meโ€ folks, who have suddenly morphed into โ€œdo what government agents tell you or get shot in the faceโ€ folks, are going to be surprised when IRS agents come and shoot them in the face.

On 9/11, people were outraged, devastated, scared, and hurt. I was sitting there depressed, thinking, "We're going to do something really stupid."

That's the way I feel today, and nobody even attacked us.
