Great information about the appeal in Bartz v Anthropic. 🧵
Courtney Milan@courtneymilan.com · 18h agoI am going to do a new thread because I have now read the filings from the two law firms who are appealing and I have read the underlying order of the district judge that they are appealing.
Tim Sheehy has quite the resume.

Montana GOP is enjoying its own little Nicene split. Republican AG Knudsen seeks to disqualify primary-winning Republican candidates. (Austin Knudsen does tend to lose in cases that demand understanding Montana law....)
Billings Gazette@billingsgazette.com · 2d agoA recent official opinion from Attorney General Austin Knudsen about Montana's constitutional term limits puts at risk the candidacies of longtime GOP state Reps. Llew Jones and Steve Fitzpatrick.
Another instance of Alme turning blind eye to child sex abuse?
Gail Waldby ❌👑@gailwaldby.bsky.social · yesterdayQuestions for Kurt Alme about the 7 years he spent as General Counsel of the Yellowstone Boys & Girls Ranch Foundation and >4 years he simultaneously served as its President. What happened after a 10-year-old boy says he told the adults he was being sexually assaulted? #MTPol
I am weary of being told I must vote for Bodner or Alme wins. I am not going to swallow a 💩sandwich to avoid a 💩sandwich with pickles.
Oh, no! Chinese AI being trained on intellectual property without consent of the creators? As an author whose books were scraped and gobbled up by Anthropic, I am so very sympathetic...
Christina Ayiotis@christinaayiotis.bsky.social · 6d ago“Researchers devised a way to extract ‘reasoning traces’ from Claude, GPT, and Gemini. What they found, they say, indicates that some Chinese AI may be trained on leading US models.” www.wired.com/story/a-new-...
Democrats are uniting around primary winners. That's the reality. Don't let the oligarch-owned corporate media tell you there's some kind of "war" between the left and the center. They are dividing their opposition. The reality is unity. Ignore the rich people trying to convince you otherwise.
71% of Americans don’t want AI data centers in their communities. Trump’s response? “You can’t fight it. You have to go with it.” Excuse me? Our towns. Our water. Our power bills. We absolutely CAN fight it. Nobody elected Big Tech to bulldoze our right to say NO!
This and the post following and sweet perfection.

the skeleton key to understanding contemporary consumer culture is that doing a good job costs money so corporations have abandoned the concept
Dismal state of affairs in Montana's senate race...
IndigiTrans@indigitrans.bsky.social · last wk.#MTpol #MTnews BREAKING: The DNC made a list of Alani Bankhead's close friends & relatives to harass because "she hasn't responded to gentler nudges." I have a copy & won't post it, but it's disturbing officials in the DNC condone harassing a Latina women's family in 2026 like they're fking ICE.
If you are not a billionaire then everyone in MONTANA needs to - vote for Alani Bankhead - US Senate, Brian Miller MT-02, & Sam Forstag MT-01 #DefeatGOP2026
Move over, Flat Stanley — meet FLAT ODYSSEUS! He’s ready to be downloaded, cut out and brought with you on all your summer adventures. Careful, though, he has kind of a reputation for being a trouble magnet… @garethhinds.bsky.social bit.ly/4f4WY96

I’m grateful that I have known hunger, poverty and loneliness in my 74 years. I will always remember living on instant mashed potatoes. I added mustard for flavoring. It’s made me a better human being, more empathetic to the needs of my brothers and sisters. We’re all in this together. Fuck greed!
Elizabeth Bishop, for me the greatest poet, published around 100 poems in her lifetime. Always driven by her own vision, she spent 20 years writing "The Moose". Here, Bishop reads her poem "The Fish" ... youtu.be/bnkD_m3rhn8
