So, to help illustrate why this thread is so horrifying, Stanford did a study on Lexis+ AI, Westlaw AI-Assisted Research, and Thomson-Reuters Ask Practical Law AI, and found between 17% and 33% hallucinations even though these are supposed to be the retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) tools.

tip for parent management: my parents were asking me about chatGPT, and have some friends who love it, and none of my attempts to caution them were as successful as just sending them the Wikipedia page for AI hallucinations

Yes, JD. Let’s ask them if they think a stay at home mom, avowed Christian, and widow of a veteran deserved to be shot in the face and left to bleed out in her own car after dropping her 6-year-old off at school, for the crime of looking out for her neighbors. Let’s ask everyone running for office.

half of new accounts today: @letskillfederalagents.imnot.acop: 🔅0 Followers 15K Following "follow me back for great protesting advice. let's post pictures of crimes together!"

Tough on crime, tough on the causes of crime. Carve it on the headstone of this generation of democratic leaders

lol they’ll arrest the passenger (her wife) and shoot HER incident to the arrest

Noem saying Ross acted "according to his training" is a blinking red light. Any investigative effort from those with subpoena power needs to press on ICE permitting early resort to lethal force. @lilahassan.bsky.social's reporting is crucial & acknowledges it may be out of date:

my dude his goons shot a mother four times in the head have you thought about adjusting your scheduled posts

Has anyone else noticed that over time, JD Vance has been morphing into the Mister Yuck face

🇺🇸 MINNEAPOLIS VETERAN: "They are terrorizing the population, in Afghanistan we never wore masks.” (From @statuscoupnews.bsky.social )

increasingly difficult to tell whether Senators act out of comity or because they are comatose

I missed the rule that the Democratic party should only talk about ONE thing. Surely they can walk and chew gum? "You are paying more in rent, more in groceries, and more in utilities. Billionaires are getting rich off your suffering. Your government takes your tax dollars and kills mothers"

Cleansing the timeline with this 2020 Lifetime romance where Mario Lopez played a sexy Colonel Sanders.

I am calling for a complete and total shutdown on Yalies at least we figure out what's going on. They aren't sending their best.

the administration has been toying with this and other charm offensive ideas since early last year and to the degree that they’ve sorta kinda tried some of the ideas already, Trump has been Mad that they haven’t “worked” hence his renewed militarism at the territory

Jesus. Need to be careful about sharing photos, but these were taken by Chris Juhn, a photojournalist in Minneapolis. You can find them on his FB page below. The officer is firing a pepperball. www.facebook.com/story.php?st...

Remember when he said he could shoot someone on Fifth Avenue and get away with it

We saw this play out this week in the January 6th observances. Notably Ashli Babbitt is a holy martyr killed by the police who could not have been afraid because zero officers died that day

These are probably ergonomic disasters but I would consider a low-poly mouse like this for fun

The mouse is a versatile little beast

The federal government claimed that the states have no jurisdiction to prosecute murders committed by its agents is the kind of thing the Founders would probably have done a whole entire revolution over

He takes copyright infringement very seriously.

Setting aside the long term viability of that strategy, at what point do you start to sound insane when people are watching armed government gangsters running wild every day and the local candidate is smiling into the camera and talking about groceries

Kristi Noem Calls Fatal Minneapolis Shooting Cathartic

Teachers direct traffic at schools every single day without murdering people. Crossing guards are in more danger every day than the ICE agent was.

No one who treated "wear a mask when you enter this store" as horrific tyranny actually believe in deference to state authority. It's Schmittian friend-enemy politics all the way down. "We" should be able to do whatever we feel like without consequence. "They" should be harassed, repressed, killed.

Modern America's capacity for production is astonishing. In 1770, all of America could produce only one Crispus Attucks. Over two and a half centuries later, we are capable of making at least one, if not several, every day

Blue sky, sorry for this, but are any of you a city/regional transportation planner, or know someone who is a transportation planner? My kid is writing a paper, and needs to ask some questions of a transportation planner, and her source fell through PLEASE let me know ASAP

This is *definitely* how you behave when you're trying to bring every resource to bear, rather than trying to cover up the unlawful behavior of your own personnel.

Self-identified Christian Americans lately seem to think their own salvation doubtful unless they themselves throw at least one more soul into Hell or its functional equivalent

really thinking about this today. The first time a cop pulled my mom over in America, she got out of the car, because that is the procedure in the Philippines (the cop is the authority, so you approach him). Lady cop drew her pistol on my mom. We laugh about it now but she could have been shot.

This is a pretty crazy thing to post over a photo of an innocent citizen's brains splattered over her car interior

O for the days when I could be sure that the only place I'd see the Daily Mail was on the dashboard of a white Transit van

Americans by and large do not really care if their lives are better so long as they can be shown that the "right" people are suffering. The Republicans are very good at putting the necessary cruelty and suffering on video to reassure their voters they are doing their jobs.

Ah well. Can't disagree here really. Americans did vote for masked agents of the state to kill innocent people, whether they understood that at the time or not. Too bad they didn't listen to anyone who tried to explain it to them bsky.app/profile/atru...

help I think I just snorted my beverage

Maybe the FBI will be honest and not cover up, harass witnesses, destroy evidence, and obstruct justice. And maybe my hair will grow back. If the FBI agents do what I think they’re going to do, though, we should know their names, and they should never have another day of peace.

Meanwhile in the United States, it’s not just Venezuelan presidents and the whole of Greenland that’s getting stolen.

It took half a century of trying and failing for the right wing to succeed in overturning Roe. Note the last bit: they succeeded…largely because they kept trying

Here’s the ICE goon. They’re telling everyone he was run over and is recovering in the hospital. He’s 💯 not hurt.

This was the most genuine DC moment

Five years ago, this great moment was captured on video:

Kristi Noem is uniquely ghoulish among regime officials because for her this is one long Real Housewives season and she's the star

Two U.S. citizens allege they were detained and removed from their vehicle by ICE agents after arriving at a work site in Salisbury, NC. “They kept saying, ‘You’re not a citizen, you’re not a citizen,’ to me, even when I told them I was,” www.qcnews.com/news/u-s/nor...

I am outside Roosevelt now, my daughter goes there. Talked to staff, ICE was in a car pursuit of someone and they crashed and went up on school property. Teachers formed a circle around the person to protect them. Ice releases tear gas and took two people

ICE is responsible for the *only* shooting and homicide in Minneapolis so far in 2026.

There are no medics present

Minnesota Public Radio says today marks the first and only shooting and homicide in Minneapolis in the year 2026

I've been a-blockin' and a-mutin' all afternoon but I want everyone to know that I never block for this reply, though the universe gives me multiple opportunities every day. Many would block, but I have the patience of a saint. Go in peace, little one.

I left messages for my reps asking the same. Tip for anyone calling @duckworth.senate.gov, her DC voicemail is full but the Illinois office voicemail is not.
