Someone just posted about how they don't care if their students use AI as long as the text conveys the ideas the students meant to convey. The thing is, you don't know exactly what you think until you write it. And if some prefab thing pops up, you're liable to decide that was what you thought.

I know people are very sensitive about the use of the word “genocide” but the attempts to medically eliminate trans children is very clearly meets the standard because they are trying to eliminate a population and also they know some of those kids are going to kill themselves

Mamdani Chooses His Words Carefully After Alleged Terror Attack
One day the NYT's editors will read these stories again and be ashamed of themselves. Mamdani called the attack "heinous," "criminal," "reprehensible," "terrorism," and "the antithesis of who we are." The insinuation that he's conflicted about this is disgraceful. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/09/n...

Kristi Noem Is Leaving a Trail of Death Behind Her in ICE Jails
I've covered deaths in immigration prisons for years, but I've never seen so many people die of what appears to be preventable conditions in such a brief period of time.
This will come back to haunt them. It must.

Rebecca Solnit Says the Left’s Next Hero Is Already Here
"I think the counter to Trump always has been and always will be civil society. A lot of the left wants social change to look like the French Revolution or Che Guevara. Maybe changing the world is more like caregiving than it is like war."- @rebeccasolnit.bsky.social

Trump admin hits back at ex-California mayor's call for federal guaranteed income as cities hand out cash
Michael D. Tubbs, founder of Mayors for a Guaranteed Income, advocated for federal cash assistance while Trump administration opposes such initiatives as unnecessary handouts.
"The Trump administration punched back at the founder of the Mayors for a Guaranteed Income organization, saying that Democratic mayors should prioritize other issues within their cities instead of issuing handouts."
Basic income isn't a handout, and the GBI pilots often show increased employment.

We won a court order forcing the Trump administration to continue FEMA's BRIC program and provide billions in funds that protect our communities from floods, wildfires, and other disasters.
I'll always fight to ensure our state gets the funding we need to keep New Yorkers safe.

Kristi Noem has done a stunning amount of damage and it’s good she’s gone.
But this doesn’t change the fact that we need a complete overhaul of DHS, impartial investigations into the killings of two American citizens, and information on children that were taken from Minnesota.

Ohio lawmakers send bill banning ranked choice to the governor • Ohio Capital Journal
The Ohio Senate voted Thursday to prohibit ranked choice voting in statewide elections and withhold state funding for governments that try it at the local level. The bill now heads to Gov. Mike DeWine...
Truly telling that banning ranked choice voting is a bigger priority for Republicans in my home state of Ohio, because it would produce more moderate officeholders, than building a 21st century economy & culture that can stop the state’s brain drain as it hemorrhages young people.
