Average Bluesky staff meeting

meanwhile every other trans woman i know who is one of the greatest minds of their generation is begging for meds and fundraising to eat three times a week and starve the rest

In 2014, Apple had the genius idea to give all 500 million iTunes users a free U2 album. I haven't heard shit from U2 since then

Sorry I'm not more open-minded about LLMs, it's just some fucking maniacs shoveled out a bunch of useless bloatware featuring that technology, did not give me any chance to opt out, reorganized the entire economy around it, zeroed out gains made by green energy, and made it impossible to buy RAM

A lot of people say AI isn't very good for the world and its outputs are routinely unreliable, but these haters fail to see how it's revolutionizing how we incinerate schoolchildren.

If the Washington Post story above sounds like PR for Anthropic, that's because it is! Amazon has invested billions of dollars in Anthropic. Jeff Bezos, of course, owns both the Washington Post and Amazon.

Average GOP primaries:

Democratic leadership needs to expel this lumbering fuckwit from the party so he can get the mental assistance he so clearly desperately needs

I’ve seen enough. It’s time to shut the humanity experiment down. Good luck to the cockroaches who inherit our irradiated remains.

We need better Democrats. Not a single dollar more for Trump’s illegal war.

“No front-page stories in NYT, WSJ, WaPo. No mention on NBC and CBS Sunday Shows. No stand alone segments on Evening News shows. A death count on par with the OKC bombing is relegated to the back page.” www.columnblog.com/p/corporate-...

It is so damning of US news media that so many outlets refuse to just straight up say that Senator Tim Sheehy assaulted an activist. He did not "help" Capitol police. They did not need his help. He wanted to assault the guy and did. He should resign.

Watch this. 19 minutes and $12 to get meds at a public Chinese hospital. Without insurance. As we slash Medicaid to start unnecessary wars and cut taxes for the rich. 🇺🇸 We should all be so much angrier than we are. It doesn’t have to be this way. #MedicareForAllNOW

Oh look it’s the Hindutva doing the DNC-fascism two-step.

A war that isn't a war, documented with videos that may or may not be real, funded by elected leaders who are neither for nor against it, is the most dystopian thing that's happened in my lifetime

i have been to the emergency room for a dental abscess. it is a uniquely excruciating kind of pain. this man was tortured to death via medical neglect.

About time F1 gets rid of danica patrick

Newey confirms Aston Martin is likely to limit race laps due to severity of vibrations in the car impacting the drivers. Alonso says he can do no more than 25 consecutive laps before risking nerve damage, Stroll says 15 laps #F1 #AustralianGP

Nobody hates living veterans more than Republicans. Dead veterans they can exploit in videos. But living veterans with opinions and medical needs are literally offensive to conservatives.

LoL First Stand broadcast talent taking up 10% of the entire venue capacity is absurd.

Is a Senator who interferes with Capitol Police to break the bones of a Marine Corps veteran who's staging a protest subject to arrest for battery, or does that somehow fall under the Senator's constitutional privilege?

Pure godless evil.

Our ruling class openly boasts about murdering children, trafficking children, making children orphans and liquidating their futures to lay waste to the Earth a little faster. Like what the fuck are we doing.

How to win in November

Senate war powers vote fails 52-48. Funny how they always have just enough votes to stop these things!

But we can’t afford health care? #MedicareForAllNOW 🇺🇸

Elon’s PAC community noted on his own site for lying about Talarico, cutting off half the quote 🤥

“He had a feeling” is a crazy reason to start a war

MARSHA: “To the Iranian people — here ya go. Here is your shot at democracy.” 🤷🏼‍♀️ Warmonger Governor hopeful @MarshaBlackburn thinks the people of Iran should be grateful Trump and Bibi are bombing them. (hospitals, schools, buildings included)

The gaming industry is riddled with leadership who had one success years ago and now believe only their ideas will work and won’t hear any feedback

Can't believe Why breaks Bsky all the time.

Lmfao they lost Matt Walsh?! MATT WALSH?!

Must read:

@tradingpaints.com So. Uh. I assume no...?

The Republicans seem to be prepping an argument that any domestic terror attacks in the aftermath of their Iran attacks will be the fault of Democrats for shutting down DHS funding, so I'd like to remind everyone of this appointment:

linux heads were always right. time to sit my dumbass down and learn

Citibike e-bikes having a lower speed limit than traffic is so incredibly stupid. Don't know how I didn't get ran over today.

This gives away the whole game, as people have been warning for years and years. This is identity erasure of a whole class. the precedents for having documents revoked by group…are not good.

I don’t mean this to be a dunk, because I often fall into this thought pattern too. Something in America is very wrong, and your kneejerk answer is that the federal govt needs to step in, adjust funding levels, and fix it. But they’re not gonna do that, because the federal government is the problem.

Riot has all this saudi money now and yet First Stand is going to be hosted at their 100 person studio in brazil instead of an actual venue? Might as well just host the whole thing online.

had a death in the family and was almost completely off the internet for a few days & my observation is that there is too much happening too fast such that basic facts abt the world are difficult to ascertain unless you are mainlining info all the time & doing that seems to drive people insane

when you go in for a trim and they completely fuck your shit up

I'm sorry but if you take paychecks from the New York Times some segment of people will simply not take you seriously, morally or intellectually, because you're working for an organization that has spent the last 10 years deliberately building a hate movement.

Trump’s Iran attacks are “terrifying” bc “they seem untethered alike from policy goals and logic” as he “offered a range of half-hearted explanations for his rush to war, but the conflicting excuses only underlined the obvious truth — he attacked Iran because he felt like it.” @nberlat.bsky.social

HAYES: “Trump’s war with Iran is illegal, reckless, and wrong. We’re only on Day 3 and it is already an indelible stain on this country.”

Calling AI "slop" has been one of the most effective instances of the public rebranding a product and it pisses them off.

EXCLUSIVE: At more than 30 installations, U.S. commanders told troops the war on Iran is a Christian war. The Military Religious Freedom Foundation has been “inundated” with more than 110 complaints. One NCO said they were told the U.S. war is to bring about Armageddon and the return of Jesus…

As the laid off Middle East News Editor, I concur. Management eliminated the positions of every single staff correspondent and bureau chief in the Middle East.
