@they0ungknight 2) my next question to myself (and you I guess?) is: ok, we know THIS use of AI is unethical. does that mean all uses of AI are unethical? or does that mean there are some uses that are ethical? in either case, what’s our framework for evaluating AI use on the measure of ethics?

[Jess @jessicaljohns1]

@they0ungknight 1) can I ask a genuinely intended question in the hopes of discussion 😅 is there an ethical use of AI? I completely agree with your intuition that fuck you for frivolous use. 100% full stop.

The NYTimes report on the US government sending people to be tortured, raped, and driven to the brink of suicide is an administration-defining document.

Our government sent a 26 year old Milwaukee Uber Eats driver to a torture prison.

In the last few years we've seen:

- The plot to kidnap Gretchen Whitmer
- The Storming of the Capitol and pipe bombs left at the RNC and DNC
- The break-in to kidnap Nancy Pelosi and the brutal on Paul Pelosi
- Multiple assassination attempts against Trump
- The assassination of Minnesota House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband and the shooting of on State Senator John Hoffman and his wife
- Luigi Mangione's assassination of Brian Thompson
- The assassination of Charlie Kirk

Political violence is contagious. It is spreading. It is not confined to one side or belief system. It should terrify us all.

The foundation of a free society is the ability to participate in it without fear of violence. Political violence is always an attack against us all. You have to be so blind not to see that.

Last week, I witnessed firsthand how Kansans are advancing our state—from expanding child care in Manhattan to growing our economy at Panasonic in De Soto. These projects are creating opportunities and supporting families, making Kansas the best place to live and work.

I don't think I'll ever forgive C.S. Lewis for tricking me into thinking Turkish Delight was going to be good.

Some areas of western Kansas will run out of water in fewer than 25 years—unless we act now. That's why my north star is securing Kansas' water future to prevent our state from facing long-term, irreversible consequences.

One of my controversial takes is that’s you should not spread your inheritance evenly among your children and especially if you are a farmer. This is one of the things that’s ruining family farms.

not to sound like one of those gifted kid burnout hacks, but it really is incredible that i used to manage two competitive sports and a full AP course load in high school and now i require stimulants to respond to texts

I know we're having fun, but imagine how much MORE fun it would be to live in a functioning democracy where two fragile billionaires crashing out didn't impact, say, rural hospital closures.

I apologise for the delayed response to your email, I have enormous personal flaws that I refuse to work on

#Kansas Sen. Roger Marshall town hall in far western Kansas. Really far. #ksleg #senate

For those watching at home: a new mom with her 1-month-old baby just flew across the country to save millions of Americans from losing their Medicaid.

@RepPettersen is a hero (and Congress should support our bill to allow proxy voting for new parents bc she shouldn’t have to be)

[U.S. Rep. Brittany Pettersen @RepPettersen]

Soon, I'll be only the 14th Member to give birth while serving in Congress. It's clear Congress wasn’t designed with young families and parents in mind.

Remote voting for new parents is a critical step to modernizing Congress and making it more inclusive. https://t.co/wbJmnKbqbh

Yikes.

Mr. Proctor, we really didn’t mean to hurt your feelings. Honestly, that wasn’t our intention.

We believe in #ksleg transparency so we thought it was irresponsible to keep your statement to ourselves.

But you love to “set the record straight” so we have some thoughts:

Farmers in Kiowa, Kansas lined a highway on Saturday to honor Bob and Lori Schrock, a beloved couple who died in the January 29 Black Hawk helicopter and Flight 5342 collision, as their families returned from DC.

Someone DM’d me the “look for the helpers” Mr. Rogers quote to say that in the midst of the chaos and hate they looked and found me. If I’m loud online about the people & rage & causes & cases & legal funds that matter for the rest of my life that’s why. And it’s more than enough

Being a person with a brain and someone who can read during this period of history is really really difficult
