idk what's sillier, suggesting that Cormac McCarthy was making an unintentional grammatical error or spelling "Blood Meridian" wrong

the joy of reading is that human writers make intentional choices. AI-generated text does not. it's not "this reads better," it's "what did the author intend when they chose to write something this particular way?"
We made a blind taste test to see whether NYT readers prefer human writing or AI writing. 86,000 people have taken it so far, and the results are fascinating. Overall, 54% of quiz-takers prefer AI. A real moment! nytimes.com/interactive/2026…

"removing writing from reporters' workloads" is an apocalyptic phrase
Editor of a major Ohio news organization says they have removed “writing” from certain reporters’ workloads. Reporters collect facts and an “AI rewrite specialist” writes the article. That article is then reviewed by editors + reporters before publication.

Wielding the power of the state to intimidate news agencies against reporting on the government's illegal abuses of power is literal authoritarianism. I'm not speaking figuratively, I'm not calling it a warning sign. It's authoritarianism. It's here.

It's beyond unacceptable that Amazon, the 2nd largest corporation in America, owned by Jeff Bezos, the 2nd wealthiest person on Earth, continues to put their huge profits ahead of the health & safety of their workers. Sadly, that's precisely what my 160-page report today found.

Woman dies after having a miscarriage. The fifth case ProPublica has reported in which women died after they did not receive a D&C or its second-trimester equivalent, a dilation and evacuation; three of those deaths were in Texas. propublica.org/article/porsh…

Abortion bans kill another woman. On the day of her baby shower, Nevaeh Crain went to the ER bleeding & feverish. She was diagnosed with sepsis, a deadly infection - but her fetus still had a heart beat. She was sent home. After her 3rd ER visit, she died. propublica.org/article/nevae…

Eric Adams claims he changed his cell phone password to prevent his staff from deleting any messages or information. Unfortunately, he told investigators, he immediately forgot the new password and so wouldn’t be able to assist them in opening his phone

Campus protest crackdowns claim to be about antisemitism – but they’re part of a right-wing plan. I wrote about the broader autocratic project exploiting fears for “Jewish safety” in ⁦⁦@guardian⁩. theguardian.com/us-news/arti…

in about eight minutes, columbia is set to announce the winners of this year's pulitzer prizes at the exact same time it is clamping down on the press freedom of its own students. you couldn't make it up
Columbia University is letting in press right now, but not their own student press. We’re being refused access to our own campus for the third day in a row.
