@jbtad "The solution plane in which he lives is an affine combination of incompetence and negligence, never passing through the origin." This is gold! I will be quoting you on this, and applying it to many others as well 😂

"We need to make sure that our safeguards, our ability to understand it, our ability to control it, keeps up with the pace at which the technology is happening." What a poor choice of verb he made with "keeps up". The solution plane in which he lives is an affine combination of incompetence and negligence, never passing through the origin.

In the last two days a couple of men have slid into my DMs and one wrote to me via letter to my home address to tell me to stop talking about Islam. Neither man is Muslim. They both think it’s a waste of time, not that serious and think it ruins my credibility as a women’s rights campaigner. To those men, and any others who think it wise to attempt to tell me how to woman, do fuck off. If you claim to care about women’s rights and are not talking about Islam you’re a fraud. Fighting for women’s rights isn’t a popularity contest, it’s not about making friends, it’s not a way of telling oneself that one is full of virtue and it’s rarely easy. Highlighting the danger of Islam is my duty as a women’s rights activist. And finally, I do and say what I want, when I want. Cheers.

To all the people crying over the cruel treatment of Jason Arday, I would like to remind you that @jk_rowling has been persecuted, humiliated threatened and vilified over an opinion for *years*. Where were you?

To understand just how irredeemably messed up academia is, compare the differences in how Cambridge treated Jason Arday and how Harvard treated Roland Fryer. One is a black sociologist; the other is a black economist. At this point, we are all very well acquainted with Jason Arday’s insane fabrications, plagiarism, and less-than-stellar research record. Yet he became the youngest black professor in Cambridge’s history at 37. Now look at the case of Roland Fryer. He produced rigorous, data-driven research, published extensively, and ran a major institute (EdLabs) at Harvard. He doggedly pursued the truth on one of the most charged questions in American public life. His landmark 2016 study titled “An Empirical Analysis of Racial Differences in Police Use of Force” examined millions of encounters and officer-involved shootings. It found that there were no racial differences in the raw data or after controlling for circumstances. In some datasets (notably Houston), blacks were actually less likely to be shot once the encounter was underway. As you know, this finding directly contradicted Black Lives Matter’s core orthodoxy that police systematically and disproportionately kill Black men out of racial animus. It was not only in vogue at the time; it was literally religion. Roland Fryer and his data were guilty of blasphemy. Harvard launched investigations into allegations of verbal sexual harassment and a hostile work environment in his lab. The process produced a two-year unpaid suspension, the permanent shutdown of EdLabs, and severe restrictions on his ability to advise or supervise. All this was investigated by a kangaroo court under Title IX. The recommendation for his alleged failings was sensitivity training, yet a faculty panel escalated it into career-crippling punishment. Fryer has said he was unfairly targeted because of the political inconvenience of his results. The contrast between how the academy treated these two men shows you how deep the moral rot is.

The Jason Arday story is becoming a national scandal. What began as a vaguely amusing parable of our times, a schadenfreude-filled exposé of the left's remarkable gullibility, has now morphed into something far more sinister. For now we learn that Scotland Yard attempted to silence a journalist who tried to expose Arday's claims. In fact, they spent four months investigating him. ✍️ James Hanson Article | spectator.com/article/the-ja… | @jhansonradio

Chinese third graders are learning advanced Calculus… American third graders are learning that men can have periods… This shit ain’t going to end well!

I recently heard something I can’t unhear. Over 80% of the feedback that women receive in the workplace is about their personality, not their work.

I think this might be because Muslims are terrorists and tend to randomly explode whereas Catholics don’t really do that

Mamdani's new proposed salary would pay him more than the combined salaries of the Governor of Florida & Texas. NYC Council Members would earn more than Members of Congress and the state legislators in all 50 states. Legalized robbery.

ARRESTED FOR BLASPHEMY!!! I don't know this lad but he just spoke the truth about Islam and Muhammed. And he was arrested for it. The Police didn't like him saying Muhammed was a rapist (he was), and they didn't like him saying Muhammed was a killer (he was). So he's been arrested for telling the truth. Police are literally enacting sharia compliant blasphemy laws in the UK. Disgraceful.

TAYLOR SWIFT AND MARISKA HARGITAY WERE GOING CRAZY CELEBRATING THE #KNICKS LEGENDARY FINALS COMEBACK. THIS IS ICONIC.

The greatest comeback in NBA Finals history. The Knicks were down 29 points and looked finished. And the Knicks found a way to fight back against a tough team. And what a game-winning basket by OG Anunoby with 1.2 left. And now, the Knicks are just 1 game away from their first championship in 53 years.
