"End Times Fascism" is outstanding. At times, it left me enraged at the appalling duplicity and selfishness of the end times fascists who have recently attained far too much power and influence. But it also left me with hope for how these horrific forces can be overcome

The greatest machine devised by humans.
Quick, healthy, low carbon and FUN. You can’t beat cycling around a beautiful city in this weather.

Proud to stand with @SBWorkersUnited and join the boycott against Starbucks.
Starbucks workers deserve a fair contract — but instead of coming to the bargaining table in good faith, Starbucks has racked up more labor law violations than any company history.

🚨 BREAKTHROUGH: Scientists at the University of Nottingham have developed a new enamel-repairing gel that starts restoring teeth in just 2 WEEKS.
This could replace fillings and change dental treatment worldwide, with use expected around late 2026–2027.
Here is how it works and when you can get it.🧵
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The claimed breakthrough is based on lab experiments with extracted human teeth showing thin mineral growth over 2 weeks in vitro. No human trial results exist; a small pilot by the spin-off began in July 2026 with none published.

The public is very anti-AI. One big disaster - a Hindenberg moment - could lead to widespread restrictions on AI. thedispatch.com/article/arti…

Michael's idea is aging results when cells lose their ability to coordinate & maintain the whole organism. We propose aging's a reversible loss of epigenetic information
Maybe same process. Information loss may cause cells to lose coordination. We should test it @drmichaellevin
.@drmichaellevin's new theory on aging will overhaul your perspective on why we age.
We think of aging as damage accumulation. But what if aging begins when development is complete & cells no longer have a shared mission & goal?
I go deeper into Mike's paper in my new post 🧵

AI alignment is technoprogressive. "Normative assumptions underlying alignment objectives inherently concur with progressive moral frameworks and left-wing principles, emphasizing harm avoidance, inclusivity, fairness, and empirical truthfulness."
