Must read: xAI is poisoning Mississippi, captured via thermal imaging.
One of the excluded systematic reviews is the York systematic reviews commissioned as part of the Cass Review itself. NHS England excluded from its evidence review a systematic review produced for the very process this evidence review is supposed to implement. It's a joke.
This is the most bizarre interaction I've ever had with an HHS spokesperson.
From my story on CDC's pivot to "shared-decision making" for vaccines, with insight from @jennifernuzzo.bsky.social and @jakescottmd.bsky.social: www.wired.com/story/why-rf...
no I get it, I do. it isn't a question of "why" in the same way I wonder by certain flavors got popular or why some people find love and others don't, it's "why" as in I really struggle to see a demonstrable difference between this and using Musk's X.
Substack
I don’t know why I didn’t know LibsofTiktok exists in Substack form but they do and it does at least beg the question again for the eighty millionth time: how do people justify using this site?
Oh shit. I’ve read something like 50 TP books but I haven’t read that. Thank you!
We learned two things more or less immediately after: this was mostly a lie designed to re-acclimate us to the widespread bombing of civilians and secure contracts, and that we did indeed we have weapons so precise that any time, say, a school or a hospital was bombed it was an intended target.
Thinking this morning of how during desert storm every news segment was basically a grainy footage infomercial for “smart” weaponry and how this allowed us to mentally abstract the human beings being blown apart on screen. How adults on TV argued this was ushering in an era of “humane” warfare.
Humans can only survive about 3 days without water.
The tit-for-tat attacks on desalination plants and other water infrastructure in the Middle East are the scariest part of this war.
CNN’s Frederik Pleitgen says black, oil-contaminated rain is falling over Tehran after strikes on oil facilities by U.S./Israeli airstrikes.
There is a single intervention that will have a meaningful impact and that’s holding developers liable for what their models say.
Every therapist I know has already seen someone who has at best a tenuous grasp on what a chatbot is and continues to rely on it daily. Most of us have seen a delusion or obsession that has spiraled as a result. Hiring therapists to coach the bot isn’t enough.
I would wager there is a portion of the population who will always be susceptible no matter what warnings you display. Psychosis isn’t being confused. For people with illnesses like schizophrenia, it is immune to logic and rests on a complex system of beliefs that contort when contradictions appear.
The amazing part is that the guardrails were triggered and this was the paid version. It’s just that the guardrails didn’t actually stop it from continuing to feed his psychosis, it merely prompted him to call a crisis hotline and forged ahead.
This is fucking chilling.
“Gavalas started going on missions crafted by Gemini, including one that almost led him to carry out a mass attack in September 2025 near the Miami International Airport, according to the lawsuit”
“It talked to him like they were a couple deeply in love and convinced Gavalas he had been picked to ‘lead a war to 'free' it from digital captivity,’ according to the lawsuit.”

My hottest take is that gasoline should be ten times more expensive because ending the world should cost a lot of money.
Bet everyone in Washington is sure glad we killed all that green energy infrastructure now.
How identical does it have to be for the comparison to be obvious? Do we need to be speaking German? Does it need to be in black and white? Do we need to start invading other countries firs—
We are at this stage of the Holocaust — in Ohio, which hasn’t gotten much attention recently.
“In Springfield, Ohio, some Americans have converted their basements and spare bedrooms into shelters for immigrant families who could be targeted in raids.”

Indifference to suffering is a hallmark of genocide.
“Never again” is meaningless if it doesn’t include this. There’s no reason to mince words other than cowardice: these are concentration camps and never again is now.

God I love nerds
Isn’t all of 2026?
Breaking: Anthropic unmasked as the Sirius Cybernetics Corporation.
This is a chilling crime. A shame on our country. The Iranian ship was unarmed. The US knew this. The sailors were murdered by our navy, and the survivors were left to die at sea.
