The Pope's humanist manifesto does something really interesting; not only does he call for new regulations and guardrails, but he also calls out what he describes as the "anti-human vision" pervasive in the tech world.
Human limitations, he argues, are not bugs in our code to be fixed or optimized. They're at the core of love, wonder, community, the shared vulnerability of being human.

YES, We must party and dance and NEVER allow them to take away our joy but that’s not all we must do. We must also FIGHT… not with violence but WE MUST PUSH BACK AT EVERY TURN and we have to learn to DEFEND ourselves. WE MUST PROTECT OURSELVES. NO ONE IS COMING TO SAVE US, WE ARE GOING TO HAVE TO SAVE OURSELVES.
Zohran on CBS: " I think what we can see is that a democratic socialist politics is one that should be judged on its delivery, like any ideology ... I think that this is a politics that can flourish anywhere because, frankly, there is only one majority in this country — that's the working class and it's time we have a politics that puts them at the heart of what it is that we're pursuing and not as part of the appendix."
NEW: We talked to an NYC millionaire who wants Kathy Hochul to tax him more.
He said he "wouldn't even notice" a tax increase, especially since he already got a break in the Big Beautiful Bill.
Taxing the rich wouldn't change his life much—but it would help millions of people.
.@jamestalarico: I've had a lot of interviews with national media. No one's ever asked me about the cost of housing. No one's asked me about the cost of prescription drugs. The only thing the media wants to ask me about are trans athletes.
The only minority destroying this country is the billionaires. Trans people are 1% of the population. Undocumented people are 1% of the population. We are all focused on the wrong 1%.
Trans people aren't taking away our healthcare. Undocumented people aren't defunding our schools. It's the billionaires and their puppet politicians
.@JamesTalarico’s message to Gen Z: “You may not be interested in politics, but politics is interested in you.
Your boss cares about politics. Your landlord cares about politics. Your insurance company cares about politics.
And until you care about politics, they're gonna keep using the political system to screw you over.”

we’re always told there’s no money for libraries, for healthcare, for universities, for high speed rail, for sewer upgrades, and yet there’s always infinite money for war
