BREAKING: RFK Jr. won’t rule out pardoning Donald Trump.

rfk.jr.brain.worm,

of course he won’t say it outright, he needs to make sure he has a chance as a running mate

Nicole Shanahan was advised by a wellness guru that her kid’s autism was her fault—a government plot around vaccines and computer blue light. Shanahan believed it and donated millions to his causes. Details from my new down-the-rabbit-hole profile of RFK’s VP pick.

Musk once again on the record denying he had an affair or was ever alone with Shanahan. (Ok, but did you knock boots? This is SF, LA & Burning Man culture we’re talkin about.)

"I don't know if the Fediverse is going to take off, even if I'm being optimistic and all signs are pointing toward that being true. What I do know is that a protocol-based solution is likely the right one if we want the next generation of social web products to be owned by us, the humans. To me - that's worth rooting for."

A MAGA billionaire is funding RFK Jr.’s campaign to hand the presidency to Trump.

Let’s explain:

I am perilously close to becoming a single-issue voter.

What issue?

A wholesale reformation of the Supreme Court. Meaningful enforceable ethics. Term limits. An expansion of the court.

‘Stare decisis’ my fucking ass.

Speaker Mike Johnson has "An Appeal to Heaven" flag – the same one flown by Justice Alito and many Jan 6 insurrectionists – outside his office. The flag is a Christian Nationalist symbol that signals a desire to reshape the U.S. into a Christian Nationalist nation.

Is the fediverse ultimately like tweetdeck but for all of it?

Like you can read and post across multiple apps, but youre just using 1 app you’re technically “in” at the moment, like Threads.

Is that right? Every time I hear an explanation, I die inside. And I worked in tech until 2016.

scottmonty,

Yeah, that's essentially it.

I had a great conversation with @mmccue about it that you might enjoy.

Everyone needs to keep an eye Samuel Alito’s wife on Flag Day 👀

A reminder: the answer is easy. No sophistry required. Bare minimum standard.

It's no coincidence that the “Appeal to Heaven” flag Alito flew is both a symbol of January 6th and of Christian nationalism. It’s no coincidence that Mike Johnson displayed the same flag outside his office.

I wrote here about how the Christian nationalist movement, allied with MAGA, has hijacked the Republican Party: https://www.weekendreading.net/p/hiding-in-plain-sight-the-sources

Sort of paradoxically, the more I consider how AI will change the web, the more clear it becomes how to build features that keep the humanity in what we create. Take almost anything that AI is good at, but not as good as a human, and then make it much easier to do that thing the old-fashioned way.

If he is accusing President Biden of trying to assassinate him, I would say Trump's lies have reached the zenith of dangerous. Come a long way from just accusing Biden of being an old sleepy stutterer.

This New York Times piece on @nicoleshanahan is damning. She was completely unvetted.

And it’s just further proof that RFK Jr. is running an unserious campaign.

Google announced a fundamental change to how the site will work, which will likely have dire effects for the news industry. When you use Google now, the site will often offer AI summaries to you, instead of favoring human-written articles. We talk to @crumbler about why this is happening and what any of us can do. https://open.spotify.com/episode/6cWLSWAq9LxwUWVbsdagKw?si=epC_8StHRJGUDrLXmail2A
