Sam Altman has killed orders of magnitude more people than Luigi Mangione.

The hatred the youth parliament gets is just so out of proportion. Can these people hear themselves. It’s creepy.

Panera’s moderately caffeinated lemonade was loosely associated with 2 deaths before it was taken off market. This article alone has 4 examples of ChatGPT encouraging young people to commit suicide, and OpenAI’s own public stats estimate over a million users discuss suicide with ChatGPT each week.

JUST IN: A federal judge has barred the Trump administration from using furloughed employees’ email accounts to broadcast partisan messages about the shutdown. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Ireland, too. You hear it everywhere because the fascists are actively trying to take over everywhere.

Every farmer in Argentina should have their own Ford class nuclear aircraft carrier with complementary fighter wing and every American farmer should go to jail if beef costs more than a nickel.

Beef fish.

Please, Mister Trump, start sending cattle ranches to jail for making money while giving Argentina infinity dollars. I beg you. It’s the only way to make America great again.

i was really skeptical that this was the case at the beginning, but i'm not sure what other explanation makes sense at this point

I feel like we have the opportunity to turn David Lynch's quote into this moment's "Keep Calm and Carry On" and it's a far better rallying cry too.

the story of this shutdown is that Trump and the Republicans have played the politics significantly worse than Chuck Schumer and folks that's a genuine accomplishment

really illustrates just how stupid and unnecessary this whole shutdown is that we're almost 40 days in and Dems repeating what they've been asking for the entire time has people howling for blood because it's so unbelievably little that it must be them caving and surrendering

there you go look, this is not how I would have played it, I've posted 'retire bitch' about Schumer repeatedly, but objectively speaking it has worked "we're offering you an incredible good deal and you repeatedly spit in our faces" is part of why Trump is taking the blame for this

"Republicans are keeping the government closed, starving kids, and making you miss your Thanksgiving flights because they want your healthcare costs to go through the roof" is actually a pretty effective message for Democrats

My mum just said to me "You should be hung like a horse". When I challenged her over saying such a thing, it transpires she thought it was a punishment horses got. Turns out she's been incorrectly using the phrase since the 90s in various settings

I see everyone getting incredibly mad about this but… this is basically what the Dems have been asking for the entire time it’s a bad deal for the Dems! it’s super easy to say yes to! and we are over a month into a shutdown anyway because the response has been “you get nothing, good day sir”

if you want to know why the caucus hasn’t folded yet it’s because even most of the squishy moderates look at this list of demands and go “uh we’re barely even asking for a dinner mint, what the fuck guys”

"loss of our own dick was not in our projections while pulling the 'shoot off your own dick' lever"

Jesus...

Free market for profits Socialism for losses This is why we have billionaires

VA Lt. Gov.-elect Ghazala Hashmi responded to comments made by her Rep. opponent, John Reid, who was the first openly gay Rep. candidate in VA history. “The bigotry my opponent was targeting me with was soundly rejected... He may not be ready to protect my rights.. I'm sure ready to protect his.”

"We're cutting off food to the poor and working class in order to force the opposition party to allow our cuts to healthcare benefits for the poor, the working class and middle class." If they got EVERYTHING they wanted here... how do they benefit?

"Your honor, the people must starve" is just like... what? The theory of the mind of that play is just fuckin lunacy

so my town has been hosting an emergency food drive for snap recipients. the town, high school clubs, the Y, the churches (Episcopal, Presbyterians, Lutherans, Baptists, Unitarians, and the Catholics) & the synagogue, are involved. You know who isn't participating? the fucking evangelicals.

Fighting courts to cut off the grain dole is facially an insane thing for a government to do! Just begging to get blamed for an extremely destabilizing move for no benefit!

25 years ago? Sheesh.. #TooCloseToCall #HangingChads #PleaseClap

Cornell agrees to hand over all the cash in their wallet to the sheriff's deputy who pointed out their (recently) broken tail light.

I know his supporters will jump through bizarre mental hoops to justify everything he does and blame his opponents for everything they don't like, but I do not see how they can watch him filing appeal after appeal and still somehow try to blame the Democrats for this.

“For I was hungry and you worked your ass off to make sure I got no food.” - Matthew 25:35-40 (Trump Bible version)

Also it’s insane to call USAID a “Biden-era program.” It was established by JFK!

The US is the world's largest oil and gas producer. Yet, "China is now making more money from exporting green technology than America makes from exporting fossil fuels."

The headlines a day after the worlds first trillion dollar CEO pay package

The elimination of USAID was an unforgivable moral atrocity that should haunt Trump, Elon Musk and Marco Rubio for the rest of their days and beyond

18 days later. 🤡

15 years ago, I said every social media founder should be forced to use and live with the default settings of their platforms. Now I would say that the AI founders should have their tools pointed at their families for a year before they can deploy them elsewhere.

(entire life is in shambles) hey can i give you some advice

He and the Republicans could really truly solve this conundrum if they were just willing spend a bit of our tax dollars to let people eat food and go to the doctor but they’d rather do this

billionaires need to put their money where their mouths are. literally. force all of the money they have directly into their mouths, blocking their tracheas, preventing them from breathing

This COVID strain is very different than the previous ones I've had. This is the unrelenting head cold from hell w/a wicked sore throat that subsided. Now I have clogged sinuses, alternating chills & sweats, all-over body aches, & a very sore neck. Oddly, my pulse ox is 98% w/no breathing issues.

Continued UI claims for federal workers were particularly acute in the DC metro area. Continued claims rose for federal workers in Maryland and DC by over 1000% compared to the same period last year. #EconSky
