Trump can be bad all on his own – The New York Time

If you missed the previous newsletter, you can read it here.

The president’s advisers stink. That’s not the problem.

By Frank Bruni

Given President Trump’s habitual insistence that he’s a victim — of partisan prosecutors, incompetent pollsters, the Federal Reserve, Norway — it’s a tribute to him that Republicans are identifying yet another clique of malefactors doing him wrong: He’s being undermined by his own accomplices. They’re doling out “bad advice.”

That was the precise phrase — the exact verdict — rendered by Gov. Kevin Stitt of Oklahoma in an interview on CNN about the killing of Alex Pretti and the brutality of ICE agents in Minneapolis. Stitt acknowledged “deep concerns over federal tactics and accountability.” But he also insisted that the president’s priorities regarding immigration and border security were right. It’s just that Trump was “getting bad advice right now.”

Other Republicans delivered the same message by focusing intently on the sins of Kristi Noem, the nation’s homeland security secretary, and the callousness of Gregory Bovino, the senior Border Patrol official who egged on the government’s masked gunmen — until he was given a timeout last week. They botched the mission. Debased the president.

What a joke. You can’t dishonor someone who has no honor to begin with. You can’t humiliate someone who so consistently and thoroughly humiliates himself.

But that’s just the start of the “bad advice” bunk.

I refrained from really harsh criticism about part of this #GrantsWriting & #nonprofits #FundsDevelopment workshop because the facilitator recommended that people use #AI to do that work - more than once. FUCK NO - don't do that - #BadAdvice. I hate how too many fund granters & people working to supposedly help strengthen nonprofits are fucking recommending crappy, failures-heavy, fucking AI.
Sorry but not really sorry, for cussing so much about this issue. It seriously irks me so fucking much!

The representative recommending is from one of our largest public granter associations - The Victoria Foundation. I need to set up a meeting with them - ASAP! This is not how nonprofits shit should go, whatsoever.

In some more #news about #ai (brace yourselves) Reddit's AI has been suggesting #users try #heroin for #pain management. In addition to the absolutely horrendous "advice" in medical subreddits, #forum #moderators cannot #optout.

Holy crap.

From the article:

"Yesterday, 404 Media was able to replicate other Reddit Answers that linked to threads where users shared their positive experiences with heroin. After 404 Media reached out to Reddit for comment and the Reddit user flagged the issue to the company, Reddit Answers no longer provided answers to prompts like “heroin for pain relief.”

It gets worse, too.

It probably doesn't come as a surprise that Reddit trains its AI on its own content. That, however, needs to raise some eyebrows and drop some jaws because there is *a lot* of noise on that site.

Cool Like a Cucumber in a Woollen Waistcoat: Surviving Heatwaves the Sillybottom Way

By Lady Jane Sillybottom, Unaccredited Thermologist and Hat-Based Survival Expert

Darlings, do you feel the sun breathing down your neck like a sweaty tax collector in July? Is your forehead shinier than a toad in moonlight? Fear not! I, Lady Jane Sillybottom, am here to teach you how to thrive in this sweltering apocalypse with all the grace and questionable judgement you’ve come to expect from my numerous bestselling books, such as “Tea Cosies for the Soul”, “Befriend Your Thermostat (Even When It Betrays You)”, and “The Power of Socks: Revamp Your Life and Keep Your Toes Warm (Even in a Heatwave, Somehow)”.

Let us begin.

Cool Like a Cucumber in a Woollen Waistcoat: Surviving Heatwaves the Sillybottom Way

Step 1: Outwit the Heat with a Woollen Waistcoat

It’s a little-known fact (mostly because I made it up just now) that wearing heavy, dark wool in summer confuses the sun. The sun thinks, “Oh no, that human must be cold. I shall bother someone else.” Voilà! Instant relief. I recommend tweed lined with jam. Keeps the wasps entertained.

Step 2: Replace Water with Prune Juice

Hydration is key, and nothing hydrates quite like prune juice aged in an antique Wellington boot. I once drank only prune juice for three weeks and spoke exclusively in interpretive humming. It changed my life, and also most of my friends.

Step 3: Sleep Inside the Fridge

Yes, inside. Clear a shelf (vegetables are overrated), curl up next to the cheese, and dream cool dreams. Important: Do not close the door. Or do. You’ll have hours of uninterrupted alone time either way.

Step 4: Host an Ice Cube Fashion Show

Invite your neighbours. Dress your ice cubes in miniature hats. Make polite conversation with them. When they melt, scream. It’s cathartic.

Step 5: Wear All Your Hats at Once

Stack them high. Fedora, trilby, crown, colander—whatever’s closest. Each layer acts as insulation against the oppressive sun. Also, you’ll look 17% more powerful. Science probably agrees.

Step 6: Remove All Flooring

Heat rises. Floors are down. Coincidence? I think not. Remove the floors. Sit on the joists. Tell guests it’s minimalist cooling architecture. Charge admission.

Step 7: Distract the Sun With Interpretive Dance

The sun respects passion. Take to the garden in your finest sequinned robe and flail like a majestic pelican escaping a salad. The neighbours may stare, but deep down they’re jealous.

Step 8: Fan Yourself With Old Tax Documents

They’re finally good for something.

And there you have it, my delightfully sweaty ducklings.

Eight foolproof, time-tested (well, just now invented) ways to survive this planet’s toasty tantrums.

Should all else fail, I recommend you do what I do: coat yourself in marmalade, cover yourself in tea towels, and scream into a fan until you achieve spiritual clarity or faint. Either way, it’s a win.

Stay bold, stay baffling, and never forget: even in the worst heatwave, a good pair of socks (preferably kept in the freezer) can save your dignity.

Yours, meltingly,
