    &amp;quot;The Cornell police allegedly did not include a student’s account of being drugged and sexually assaulted by seven members of the campus’ Chi Phi fraternity in October 2024 after giving an hourslong interview to them.&amp;quot; Defund the police. https://www.newsnationnow.com/crime/cornell-police-omitted-rape-allegations/

    To all my Wikipedians! In a scenario where Jane Doe were to be identified/doxxed, is it possible to keep that name off Wikipedia? #cornell

    &amp;quot;It’s also why purportedly well-meaning liberals have demonized us online and on cable news for voting against our interests. It’s why they’re comfortable making jokes about the deportations of our loved ones. We apparently need to be taught a lesson, and they claim to have the answers.&amp;quot; What&amp;#39;s worse, narrative that justified Latino demonization by the left turned out to be a lie. The exit polls were way off. Yet we&amp;#39;re being scapegoated for the 2024 election to...

    Went to Barnes &amp;amp; Nobel in my old neighborhood thinking I&amp;#39;d see Latino authors prominently displayed in the front of the store. I thought this even before remembered it&amp;#39;s Hispanic Heritage month. To my surprise, all Latino authors were relegated to the back of the store on this little table. Oh we have so much work to do.

    Should Mastodon embrace video as a medium? (More than now, obviously). I&#39;m afraid to ask this lol. Is it a can of worms?

    @dangillmor@mastodon.social This was a fantastic read. I think it worth acknowledging that just 18 months ago, this pullquote would&#39;ve been deemed radical and alarmist by liberals. And that the &quot;Epstein Class&quot; does not go into remission when Democrats take office. It&#39;s also worth acknowledging that change can lead to an absence of power, which causes a vacuum. And we are ill equipped to capture that power for the people. Right now, as it stands, we&#39;re looking neoliber...

    You know that feeling you get when you’re on a microblogging platform for too long? You kind of feel horrible and vaguely angry and anxious. I’ve never once felt like that on Mastodon. That’s gotta be worth something.

    Bluesky is microblogging for people who don&amp;#39;t microblog, mixed with career capital-p Posters, and it&amp;#39;s glued all together with liberalism&amp;#39;s worst impulses. And honestly, god bless you if this is not your experience. But I&amp;#39;ve never had fun scrolling BS. It&amp;#39;s like a parody of liberal late-stage Twitter and Shrimp-Jesus Facebook. If they don&amp;#39;t figure a way to make some homegrown celebrity posters soon, it&amp;#39;s a wrap, I think. And I sincerely d...

    I guessed whether a face was real or AI generated and got it right 19/20 times. And I know exactly why lol. When that &amp;quot;this person doesn&amp;#39;t exist&amp;quot; website came out, I was having trouble sleeping so some nights I&amp;#39;d just lay in bed and refreshed the page until I fell asleep. 😭 Is this a marketable skill? Can I work for the FBI?

    #3GoodThings 1. The Publix brand Jamaican beef patties are delicious. I mean, for a frozen food. The pastry is so flakey and it&amp;#39;s all very flavorful. 2. The cover of The Sign of The Times by Sandra Hüller on Project Hail Mary is beautiful. I would totally listen to her cover if they release it. 3. Thunderstorm season is here. I love falling asleep to the rain.

    The problem with the corporate world is everyone&amp;#39;s reading the 48 Laws of Power before learning basic communication concepts. Like, stop trying to amass an empire from your cubicle, Travis, and go read Bird by Bird so people can understand your emails.
