Still can’t believe this was a real star wars guy

why on earth would impeaching the brazenly corrupt president distract from their focus on corruption

This is why there is no giving a single inch on “AI.” I do not give a fuck if “it actually is helpful for some things.”

If they were deliberately trying to lose nothing would look different.

Social media apps as Lord of the Rings characters, a thread: Twitter: Twitter is Gollum. Began as a normal halfling. Overexposure to evil left it thin and stretched and bitter.

Can they remove the unnecessary CoPilot feature altogether?

I’ve seen stickman memes made with MS Paint that have resonated with my soul in ways that still reverberate today. Every AI meme I’ve ever seen, no matter how detailed & glossy, has killed me a tiny bit.

Using your debt, your search history, and your private data to decide how much you’re worth? Hell no. This is what happens when technology is built to serve profit instead of people. This is why every worker needs a union.

As a reminder, please no DMs. I am only here to resist the orange cheeto.

when i worked at turnable.fm it was still a tiny startup and it was the era of gimmick business cards so they let us pick our own titles and a line from a song to print on them, which meant my business card was: "i love it when you call me big poppa" - atomly, backend expert

Somehow, the bodycam footage of Alabama police arresting a Black pastor watering his vacationing neighbor's flowers makes the story even more surreal than the headline suggests. They keep threatening to cuff a man who is *actively spraying planter boxes the entire time*.

New from 404 Media: the FBI was able to extract incoming Signal messages from a phone even though the app was deleted. Why? Because parts of messages were stored in the iPhone's internal notification database. Shows how secure chat data can come from unexpected places www.404media.co/fbi-extracts...

Our PhD student Kennedy Orwa, who studies applications of AI to health care, was hastily deported today to Kenya along with his 13-year-old son without opportunity to speak to legal counsel. King 5 reports that he held a valid visa that was rescinded without explanation.

"AI is garbage, bro, it gives you wrong answers like half the time and the other half the time makes you stupid." Overheard a middle schooler chastising a fellow student for suggesting they use AI. Whole middle school herd started mocking the AI kid. ...We need to let these kids at the tech bros.

"hillary warned us" is so fucking bleak to say about iran when her crowning achievement in government was doing to libya the very model of what trump wanted to do to iran, bombing it and killing everyone in power so it's reduced to a failed state full of warlords and slavers because it defied the US

APNewsAlert: JERUSALEM (AP) — Israeli military official says the country is still attacking #Iran, after White House said Israel agreed to ceasefire.

What if we just put him in a prison cell for fucking children? Has anyone considered that?

If we can't remove him from office after he's acting like a genocidal maniac, we as a country need to look at each other and wonder what the fuck are we even doing here? What is the point? There are no safeguards. There's just yes men until the demented old freak presses the button. We're done.

Liz Warren stood and applauded this a month ago. This is her war as much as anyone elses

Didn't a movie come out not long ago about astronauts in space who witnessed nuclear devastation from above? #artemisII

Serious question. Are there nuclear bunkers sprinkled across the country in case people need to shelter?

BREAKING: The price of Brent crude oil just hit an all-time high of $144.46 a barrel.

"Will the nuclear detonation impact the value of my bored ape NFT?"

The City of Pittsburgh just passed legislation banning cooperation with ICE. The vote was unanimous. 🎉🎉🎉

how long after be drops the bomb on iran until a democrat calls for us not to be distracted from the epstein files?

everyone is like "URGENT call your senators NOW to prevent a NUCLEAR ATTACK" but all the senators are on here like "gas prices amirite"

I'm old enough to remember that a politician's career would end if they had an affair or made a racist remark. Nowadays, you can have sex with 9-year-old kids and commit war crimes without consequences.

The president has gone fully insane, is threatening to commit genocide, and probably plunge the world into even greater chaos but we still have to go to work.

fucking pathetic party of losers that only care about capital. none of these fucking democrats actually oppose anything he's doing bedsides the mean posts on truth social

Oh look another market manipulation. 😒

Trump began the holiest day on the Christian calendar with a profanity-filled Truth Social tirade that praised Allah. trib.al/1qjfZXq

This is an actual post. This is not funny. This is beyond desperate. This is a deeply unwell man who doesn’t belong anywhere near the levers of power. Every member of his cabinet and Congress is complicit in not demanding his removal now.

Israel is still planning to execute any Palestinian who it accuses of committing a terrorist offence. There is a 99.74% conviction rate for Palestinians and no appeals are allowed. So they literally execute any Palestinian they accuse. But there are no sanctions. Why?

Perfect day for a hike

The war currently raging is between a fanatical religious dictatorial autocracy whose militaristic posture, nuclear ambitions and zeal for apocalyptic messaging threaten to destabilize the entire global order, and Iran.

The genocidaires have already started their shooting and crying films.

I want to thank @lukeoneil47.bsky.social for giving me space to traipse through history, thinking about growing up near military bases on both coasts, and the long cost of wars sold without sacrifice. [GIFT LINK]
