What I want this to be is basically every shitty gothic novel ever published and I mean starting with the Castle of Otranto and 4000 copies of The Monk. I want the well poisoned with sinister cowled figures and shrieking heroines. I want every ChatGPT request to spit out amphibians.

New from 404 Media: a company is selling tons of old books specifically to AI companies and says they have a strong NDA to never reveal which AI company bought all of the books. They don't want headlines of 'we scanned and destroyed millions of books for AI' www.404media.co/ai-companies...

Apparently large swaths of the T-Mobile network are down nationwide, but someone please explain to me how it's only affecting one of my phones and the other one still has service. Bizarre!

Angie Smith — the woman below making racist comments about El-Sayed & whose endorsement the Stevens' campaign has promoted — was previously censured by fellow school board members for allegedly helping create a toxic culture by spreading rumors and gossip & attacking fellow staff

“It was very clear there was a lot of disruption on the board,” she said. “What I found is instead of being a cohesive, collaborative board, there was a lot of division and there was one common thread amongst it.”

Green said the “common thread” was one of her elected colleagues, current trustee Angie Smith.

Herrera said in his resignation Smith's harassment against him created a hostile work environment. Following his resignation, the school board censured Smith, and two board members followed Herrera's lead and resigned, as well.

“Her censure-ship was much more than what the portrayal is,” Green said. “It’s the behavior of her overall. It’s the spreading rumors, the gossip and her attacks on different staff members.”

Former Farmington school board Vice President Terry Johnson.
Other former members agree.

“Angie Smith has had problems with every single person on that board,” Terry Johnson, a former board vice president who also resigned in November, said.

Michigan school board official Angie Smith says she’s supporting Haley Stevens because she thinks Stevens will represent everyone and “not just one race." "Don’t come out speaking only Arabic, don’t come out with your Arabic music on.” Video from reporter Sam Robinson:

I see a lot of people complaining that the DSA should be trying to change the Dems from within the system unlike [3rd party candidate of years prior] and like...that's explicitly what they're doing? They are not a 3rd Party! What is The System you're talking about that disallows Primary challenges?

I've said this before, but I'll say it again: I personally like Reynoso, but I disliked a lot of things about his congressional campaign, and I'm glad to have supported Valdez in this election. And now I'm *extra* glad. Integrity is important, now more than ever.

Remember those mysterious super PACs that popped up in the race for NY-7's congressional seat, days before the primary? On Tuesday, the FEC filings for those PACs went public—and some people might prefer we forgot about them. hellgatenyc.com/pro-israel-s...

NYC stooping culture is awesome, but with the incoming severe weather, items like these are about to become dangerous missiles. Please bring your items inside or secure them!

Tipping comes out of the New Deal where Southern lawmakers would only sign on if there were specific carve outs to ensure that formerly enslaved Black people would not earn the new minimum wage. They created carve outs for professions disproportionately held by Black people including waiting tables

I'm reading this en route to the BK Dems' hastily planned meeting to choose new municipal court judges. This meeting is very likely to be shitshow. We haven't even been told who the candidates are that we will be voting on. Stay tuned to this 🧵 for live updates!
