Do you think auctioneers sound like that during sex?

Ah yes. Harvard Law School in the early 1990s, well known for its Communist professors.

Google defaulting all Gmail users to a setting that enables Google to harvest all your emails into chatbot training is straight-up evil and invasive.

“I can’t believe Mamdani would speak with Trump” meanwhile 86 Democrats voted with all Republicans to condemn the “horrors of socialism” before this meeting but yeah let’s get mad at the muslim democratic socialist

Laughing at Donald Trump saying he'd definitely feel comfortable living in Zohran Mamdani's New York on the same day that half the consultant brain-poisoned Democratic party voted to condemn socialism

That's gonna take a lot more effort than simply glazing the Billionaires and Donald Trump

Wouldn’t it be some shit if a white supremacist took the 14 words seriously? “Oh shit, if we’re gonna secure a future for white people, we’re gonna need public healthcare, clean air, drinkable water, affordable housing…”

Every story about #Grok is just “A guy who can’t code told Grok to praise him or peddle a discredited belief, then everyone noticed how shitty it was even by AI standards within ten minutes.”

We used to be a country

What's really starting to come into view is that "online tankies" aren't even really that radically communist, it's just people with anti-American sentiments who are also culturally-4chan. If you press them, they're absolutely racist, misogynistic, transphobic, and homophobic. That's their culture.

Aside from Reagan letting AIDS rip on purpose to exterminate the queers and Obama making the biggest healthcare reforms since LBJ while recognizing gay marriage, they were basically the same.

I hate this sort of meme. “The only difference between the parties is whether the power to destroy human civilization rests in the hands of leaders who think gays, women, and black people should have their rights acknowledged.” Even if true, how is Rainbow B-52 not infinitely preferable?

Breaking character: I am open to the idea the media's coverage of Biden's age and mental acuity was fair or perhaps not even tough enough. But the fact that it was so much tougher than the coverage of Trump's (more severe) mental decline is damning and I can't see how anyone could argue otherwise.

“Elon Musk voluntarily eats shit.” - A chat bot that was edited by Musk to say that, and programmed by someone who knows how to code.

This shit is delightful

so grok is literally just elon behind a curtain typing furiously

imagine if the pulitzers combined the editorial writing and investigative journalism categories into one, because both contain words. that's what they did, but for work that involves drawing.

yay iowa city!

“I think that many of these college journalists are laser-focused on their beats, are developing great sources among administrators, faculty and students, and are unfazed by the possibility that their stories might piss off a valued source or two” — Columbia Journalism School professor Bill Grueskin

This Trump judge recognizes that Trump has destroyed the Department of Justice.

At this point, I think the three ghosts would just beat the shit out of him and leave without explanation

Oh Piggy, you should definitely take away ABC's license. Your voters will LOVE not getting Monday Night football and everything ESPN on broadcast. (Check the demographics on broadcast viewers, 1st. Nice surprise.) Always a good idea to go up against THE MOUSE.

I know they won't, but the entire press pool should bark back, "Quiet Piggy!" every time he begins to speak next time. Such a horrible, horrible man.

Republicans when the president is under fire for molesting 12-16 year old girls

The title of my next book, the 5th in the John Dies at the End series, has been leaked, by me. It will be called, 'THERE ARE NO GIANT CRABS IN THIS NOVEL: A Novel of Giant Crabs' There is a free preview chapter in the paperback edition of I'm Starting to Worry About This Black Box of Doom.

New MRI, please.

When Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) was Speaker, there never was a successful discharge petition. Under Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA), there have been two successful discharge petitions. Speaker-emerita Pelosi repeatedly worked with majorities slimmer than Speaker Johnson now has. She was better at the job.

Me: Yes, I would like to print this two-page document. @microsoft.com Word: How about a third, as a little treat? :) Me: No, just the two please. Delete that third page. Word: No :) you added a space on page one. Me: Okay, but 3 is completely blank? Just get rid of it. Word: Fuck your family. :)

This whole piece is all the actual horribles on parade, and this one is just infuriating

The Running Man is probably my favorite Stephen King story, and the new movie does it justice, just in case anyone reading this was on the fence

Frens: I know the ACA is not perfect. Not close. But it is SO MUCH BETTER than what existed before. I not only was a health insurance broker for 6 years, I haven't had a job with insurance for over forty years, so if I had insurance, I had to buy it. We WANT a debate about health care. (typo reup)

Calling Donald Trump the “throat goat” is very disrespectful to Nancy Reagan’s legacy

Before the ACA there were no National Health Insurance standards. No minimums. Companies were licensed from state to state, and there was no standard for benefits. People would buy "full coverage" to find it only covered the hospital, no medical. Comparison shopping would be very difficult.

This may be Trump's perfect social media post. A true work of art. He confirms: ✅He personally directs criminal investigations. ✅He is targeting opponents. ✅Epstein "records" exist and he knows the contents. Bonus points for connecting it to investigation of his fondness for Putin.👀

Copper is the only mineral that will never take me alive

Supposedly 100+ republicans will vote to release the Epstein files. So does that mean the thousand or SO FBI agents finally redacted enough pictures of the president molesting little kids for it to be seen as “safe”?

Weird not to lead with the item most people will immediately glom onto: they let her have a pet puppy.

Important to remember that on top of the fascism and incompetence, everybody in the Trump admin is also stealing everything they can as quickly as possible.

“We’re sorry we edited the part of your speech where you incited an insurrectionary riot with the other part of your speech where you incited an insurrectionary riot, and focused on the insurrectionary riot rather than the minor and irrelevant edit” (Is still more than necessary)
