Flash Fiction:
”Welcome to Camp Waatsahoomie! Girls, move over to by that boulder. Boys, by that pine tree. Non-binaries, by that oak tree. Good, good. Counselors will assign you to cabins based on your age.”
”You all know why you’re at Camp Waatsahoomie. Your parents sent you here because you’re addicted to social media. There’s none of that at Waatsahoomie. Absolutely no electronics here. Not even in the administration building behind you. There is a pre-war rotary phone we can use to call for an ambulance in case of emergency, but it has no screen and even if you got to it, I’m pretty sure none of you even know your parents’ phone numbers without relying on your phone’s memory.”
”You’re here for the entire summer. Twelve weeks of touching grass. Enjoy!”

Top '28 Dems retreat on AI — huge sign of rising backlash
The AI backpedaling has begun: 2028 Democratic contenders who bet big on data centers are suddenly retreating amid a growing voter revolt.
The politics of AI are evolving almost as rapidly as the technology.
Just a few months ago, potential 2028 presidential candidates — including Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker, Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro and Maryland Gov. Wes Moore — were bending over backwards to lure data centers, with offers of lavish tax breaks and other goodies.

Dems working on secret report found Gaza cost Harris votes
Top Democratic officials who worked on the party’s still-secret autopsy of the 2024 election concluded that Kamala Harris lost significant support because of the Biden administration’s approach to the war in Gaza.
The Democratic National Committee’s research on what went wrong in 2024 has been under lock and key since party leaders decided last year to hide it from the public — a reflection of how explosively it could resonate within the party and beyond.

Tech’s new generation and the end of thinking…
One of the pervasive new doctrines of Silicon Valley is that we’re in the early stages of a bifurcation event. Some people will do incredibly well in the new AI era. They will become rich and powerful beyond anything we can currently imagine. But other people—a lot of other people—will become useless. They will be consigned to the same miserable fate as the people currently muttering on the streets of San Francisco, cold and helpless in a world they no longer understand. The skills that could lift you out of the new permanent underclass are not the skills that mattered before.
