our intrepid associate editor @jake_romm was on @hasanthehun stream discussing his work with the @HindRFoundation:
Hasan Piker's full interview with Jake Romm from the Hind Rajab Foundation: What is the Hind Rajab Foundation? (1:05-7:05) Has it gotten more difficult to catch these war criminals in the act? Why do they post their war crimes anyway? (7:20-10:16) Hind Rajab’s alleged killer is walking free in the United States??? What kind of investigation did y'all conduct? Is there evidence? (10:30-21:05) What about getting Bibi prosecuted? (21:06-25:20) ISRAEL TINY NATION! (25:30-29:00) The Western World's culpability (29:10-34:45) Jake's parting words and Hasan's reflection on their conversation (34:46-37:21)

Tony Platt reviews the new book by Miriam Pawel, “California Dreams: The Making and Remaking of the University of California.” Pawel’s focus on a few alumni, he writes, elides both radical traditions and unethical practices inextricable from UC history. proteanmag.com/2026/10/10/in…

The Atlantic, supposed beacon of free speech and liberal principles, has published 30+ articles on Hasan Piker and zero about Israel’s unprecedented killing of 230+ journalists in Gaza. Some are saying it’s because it’s run by a former volunteer IDF prison guard but who’s to say

Ruth Shalit, former rising-star journalist with an epochal run of serial plagiarism—who, after a public shaming was given the second chance of a lifetime, and just could not stop herself from plagiarizing AGAIN… married the President of Hearst digital media

actually, given the timing on the wedding and her attempted comeback at The Atlantic (hiding her name with a new byline), i suspect the former had quite a bit to do with the latter

i talk about exactly this in my next encyclical
Intelligence must draw on memory. The mind must not simply compile data — as an algorithm now does more quickly than we can — but recall lived experiences, which contain depths of meaning that only the human soul can recognize, and connect more deeply with the goodness of these experiences. Everything that is good begins “with the Spirit” and thus possesses a breath, a dynamism and a sense of communion that, once experienced, are engraved upon the heart. vatican.va/content/leo-xiv/e…

Kate has tirelessly worked this essay through such a rich and generative process of compositions and concepts—which neatly parallels the psychic/literary journey of its main narrative, and of Hölderlin’s nested within that. the result is really something special, i think
pls read my essay about the life of friedrich hölderlin and how he kept me company when i went insane

once again, there is no need to indulge Roko's Basilisk discourse about AI safety from Berkeley polycules when any Palestinian will tell you what unsafe AI looks like *right now*
A U.S. charity in Gaza is worried that teachers at its schools might stray from a curriculum it says promotes peace and tolerance, so it plans to record classroom conversations and use artificial intelligence to flag speech deemed “hateful” or “inciting.” apnews.com/article/gaza-chil…
