Hillary Clinton: "More people were deported under my husband and Barack Obama without killing American citizens and without putting children into detention camps than were in the first Trump term or this first year of Trump's second term."

The year is 2073. I have been granted a promotion-retirement, tomorrow I will be grafted onto a precious metal recycling droid as a natural language interface. I’m celebrating with a few bites from a rented wheel of dogs cheese.

what kind of shape is this???

LLMs may be creating a bubble that will destroy the economy, but theyre also giving many of the most annoying people on Earth completely novel forms of mental illness so it's impossible to say if they're good or bad

I’m in the culture lab raising consciousness

It’s weird noticing even the people who seem to be deriving maximum benefit from genAI are ALSO miserable from it. I haven’t had a job in a year because it’s destroyed my career and livelihood, meanwhile the people who should be profiting from it can’t unplug long enough to watch a movie anymore

I will never talk to an AI and that’s a promise. I don’t know what a Claude is and I do not intend to figure out. I will be using the computer the way God Intended, looking at pictures of Oldsmobiles.

CCTV footage appears to show DHS agents posing as people having car trouble in order to lure a target out of his house before arresting them. The target comes out and starts helping them before 3 vehicles surround the scene. The car "experiencing" trouble then drives off with them.

the english word "computer" actually comes from the french term "comp de terre" which means "bastard of the earth"

I used to love crashing my car into the bridge. But that’s a young person’s game

Wow we're gonna go after Sutro but not a word about what living near the Alameda-Weehawken the Burrito Tunnel does to people.

Tom Homan: "I'm not going to sit here and say anybody did anything wrong and that, you know, they were, you know, unprofessional." Today at Homewood Suites in New Brighton, MN:

Taking a dremel to a brand new cylinder head is definitely a bit nervewracking. For a good cause though - I’m adding a cylinder head temperature gauge, using a thermocouple probe that goes under #3 spark plug.

Update: I just received an invite to an INEOS drive event in March. I replied to explain that I would not be providing the company with any media attention due to the bigoted comments of its owner. We are under no obligation to rubber stamp the actions of billionaires. We have a choice, and a voice

hello and welcome to the political genius exam. here is question one. which is a more compelling message: - the president is sending armies to occupy cities and kidnap and kill people and your town could be next - a meal at the cheesecake factory that previously cost $100 now costs $104.9

🔜 it’ll’ve been 50°F

don’t laugh, this can happen to anyone. It might have even happened to somebody you know.

hey that’s my friend speaking ❤️

Apparently ICE has taken new vehicle deliveries at Whipple for the past three days. So I think we have to stay vigilant, but it’s equally plausible that ICE is so fucking incompetent that the people in charge never talked to the logistics folks who order the cars.

Bracing for the car-partsocalypse. Great how a bunch of suppliers can consolidate under a single Ponzi scheme that takes them all out when it collapses, screwing everybody over.

rise and grind divas let’s build 0.0001% of communism today

hell yeah brother

happy valentine’s day

what irks me about this thought construction, it is built from a false belief not based on anything in evidence, that Trump required some specific response justification to do anything illegal and unconstitutional that he has enacted thus far

the problem with Parks and Rec is that sometimes it’s really good

History Tidbit: This amazing Pho location (can recommend!) was once the site of the St Anthony Park Northern Pacific Railway station. Trains ran each direction on the hour, and during State Fair season they ran 6 per hour. Time to either downtown: 12 minutes.

starting to put the engine’s clothes on, at long last

no foreign foe has ever dreamed of being able to sack and pillaging this country the way Trump admin and its congressional and scotus enablers do every day.

ICE kidnapped a neighbor in Phillips today along with others in MN. They are still the same rogue, abhorrent, & illegitimate organization meant to terrorize & separate families. As I said yesterday, I am still asking the community to remain cautious & vigilant. We still need help. Jason Chavez 1/

Jacob Frey on TV: “We just approved rental assistance that is targeted towards the people who hopefully need it most.” Jacob Frey to Minneapolis City Council:

He was living under Federal protection in Miami but I guess no one told ICE and now he's going to go to trial for crimes against humanity

“You ever stop to think how much more smoothly Minneapolis politics would function if Jacob Frey could be just like 15% less of a dick?”

It's not a new observation at this point but that wild Noem/Lewandowski story in WSJ really brings home the extent to which all the Trump 2 cabinet-level goblins see their jobs as flying private, doing short-form video, and screaming at underlings. They all hate each other and none of them can read.

This is something the Nazis used to do to Jewish children in the camps. It happened to a man I knew when he was a child in Auschwitz. The camp guards thought it was funny as hell.
