There was a viral post I saw citing an email from The New York Times to Jeffrey Epstein with the subject "Thank you for your support!" claiming it proved Epstein colluded with the NYT. It was a generic email that went to all subscribers! Obvious with a moment of reading. The IG post had 1m views.

interesting that conservatives were militantly “we must reward hustle” when the target was affirmative action at elite universities and now, when faced with the success of south asians and other groups, it is “i think we are too meritocratic”
It's absolutely bonkers to me that this image led directly to this tweet.

Never forget that David Ellison's Skydance Media was originally created so he could be an actor. Skydance's first film was 'Flyboys' starring James Franco and... David Ellison. David and his daddy invested $60m to make Flyboys. It grossed $17m Here's a bit of David's acting:

the politics around trans rights have changed radically in just a few years—and that means they can change once again, and in the right direction. the supreme court doesn't get to decide that!
Just because SCOTUS affirms a type of discrimination does not mean that discrimination is required. This decision should not cause us to weaken our efforts for trans inclusion in general or trans inclusion in sports in particular. Cis allies, you very specifically, need to double down.

in Jan, I was at the rally for the trans sports case at the Supreme Court. today SCOTUS ruled states can ban trans girls from sports. @us.theguardian.com "This hyper-focus on sports is yet another example of the ways that they are trying to erase trans and non-binary people from public life.”
ive always wondered if Claude fucks up on purpose to make you use more tokens redoing it....
As I predicted two weeks ago, everyone is being told to go and do token-intensive loops. Use more tokens folks! Follow the great prophecy! If everybody keeps doing the right thing at the same time they’ll drop more stuff from the sky! Do not doubt the AI industry! www.wheresyoured.at/ai-is-slowin...
