Powell has spent his career decrying the "cancellation" of race scientists, climate deniers and bigots, arguing that their substantive views were less important to the threat to free speech their punishment represented.

When it comes to Khalil, though, his (alleged) views are front and center.

Every once and a while someone goes through my live-skeets of @marzgurl.com's Vic Mignogna video, and this jumped out in my notifications. Like two months after I said this we started meeting to relaunch @nobrandcon.bsky.social

Anyways, join us May 1-3 in Eau Claire, WI.

We didn't invite Vic. πŸ˜†

Universal Basic Income Is Your Productivity Dividend. It’s the Only Way to Share What We All Built. Why Universal Basic Income (UBI) Is the Only Way to Share AI and Productivity Gains With Everyone

We don't know what impact AI will have on productivity in our immediate future but Universal Basic Income (UBI) is the only way to share AI and productivity gains with EVERYONE, and it needs to be everyone because we all trained it with our data/work and funded its development with public dollars.

Dear Dr. Mr. Crunchyroll,

It's not that putting 4 episodes and trailers of new anime in theaters every quarter is a bad idea per se.

But you should consider saying what the episodes are when you sell tickets.

Sincerely, Me

In retrospect a gag dub of the 2nd Lupin III series with pop culture references is more in line for current Adult Swim....

Canada’s forgotten universal basic income experiment Amid wide unemployment during Covid-19, basic income schemes have gained fresh relevance. A successful Canadian scheme that's over four decades old could provide a road map for others.

A radical rethink is needed. For example, everyone gets a basic income and is encouraged to work for luxuries. Money saved from deciding who merits benefits can be used to help everyone get meaning, dignity and social network from work life until retirement. www.bbc.co.uk/worklife/art...
