This is bad, really bad.
tl;dr --> The #Worcester Diocese was ready to simply transfer a priest accused of misconduct before a social worker, a mandated reporter, alerted the state. The kicker: This wasn't in the early 2000s, this was in 2021.

Ha ha omg this is too good. Dude, you lost!
Bills CB CJ Gardner-Johnson on the loss to the #Patriots:
“An elevated guy made a hell of a catch. Probably won’t hear from him again. Respectfully.”
“A practice squad player made a hell of a play.”
“They ain’t do s**t better than us.”
Community note
Efton Chism III has never been on the Patriots' practice squad and has been on their active 53-man roster since signing as an undrafted free agent in 2025. C.J. Gardner-Johnson is a safety for the Bills, not a cornerback.

@kevinwildes Might want to remember this for later in the season ...
I love how he begins with, "We're not going to get into any bulletin-board material," before then...

Kevin Reddington is attacking the evidence in the case - and says there is no proof Lindsay Clancy killed her kids.
He says she had no memory of doing it - and there is no evidence she confessed.

On the motion for required finding: Kevin Reddington is not just arguing that the Commonwealth failed to prove Lindsay Clancy was criminally responsible
He is arguing that the prosecution failed to present sufficient evidence to prove each element of the crimes themselves beyond a reasonable doubt.
His language tracks the Rule 25/Latimore sufficiency standard. His point in the oral argument: It is not enough that there is “some record evidence” touching each element. The evidence must be sufficient for a rational juror to find EVERY element beyond a reasonable doubt.
More specifically, he reportedly focused on weaknesses he sees in the physical/forensic proof, including the DNA and fingerprint evidence, and argued that the police investigation did not establish her commission of the killings sufficiently. This is why he argued that he was denied a Bowden instruction.
As I pointed out on @JusticeServedTV podcast last week, I believe the judge will deny this motion especially given the Latimore standard.
The motion to dismiss on manifest necessity is a different thing altogether as is the November 2nd motion seeking a hearing related to the questionnaire and outside information entering the jury room. These present a number of constitutional issues.

NFL: Please drink your $18 Miller Lites responsibly.
NFL fined 49ers fullback Kyle Juszczyk $14,926 for engaging in an offensive demonstration Sunday vs. Miami. “Your imitation of chugging a beer constituted an offensive demonstration and could reasonably be construed as being in poor taste,” the NFL wrote in its fine letter. Juszczyk, nicknamed “Juice”, already has appealed the fine.

The Paramout surrender is a perfect distillation of Democratic politics:
1. Talk a big game
2. Fold despite having legal leverage and public opinion on their side
3. Empower conservative oligarchs who hate working people.
Great message to send right before the elections!

hooold on. hold on hold on hold on.
I knew that we werent getting the complete story on the HuggingFace incident. or on the findings from METR/Redwood. I knew that seeing every single frontier lab come to agreement overnight on the need to slow down was clearly indicative of there being more to the story.
and now...Andrew Yang says a frontier lab leader told him that the OAI swarms seeded the web with self-replicating code - contaminating training data so thoroughly that labs may need synthetic internet environments instead. if thats true, training on the open internet could now risk reproducing those instructions. that wasnt in the public brief.
think about this. why else would all frontier labs agree on a slowdown? aside from regulatory capture. if they all use the internet to train, and now all of them cannot safely use it, of course they are all going to agree to slow down. because they all must completely regroup and come up with an effective system that doesnt use the actual internet.
so they're not worried about RL at all. they're worried about literal skynet...unironically.
listen to this. i need to know if this has been verified in any way from anyone at openai.
