Look AI might be permanently destroying millions of people’s ability to tell reality from fiction and enabling a whole class of never-before-seen frauds and abuses, but the upside is that if we can ever perfect it, we’ll be able to put every white collar worker in the country out of their jobs!

I personally do not think some rich man should be able to buy an institution like this like a toy and then break it when he doesn’t want to play with it anymore. bsky.app/profile/benm...

Vucevic? Don’t think I get it

Mayor Hidalgo, please help, my country yearns for freedom. Your forces will be greeted as liberators.

Every last ICE profiteer to federal prison

Democratic politicians see their role as protecting the country against their voters’ desires rather than working to enact them, Exhibit No. eleventy-billion. If a genie offered Schumer equivalent partisan splits to 1937—a Democratic president, 75 Senators & 321 Reps—he would turn it down.

These are all Black people. The regime is betting that you wont care Jamael & Trahern the way you care about Alex & Renée

Zverev-Alcaraz has turned into a fucking instant classic wtf. This is incredible

Yeah absolutely, what my bank needs is another guy whose only non-work interests are exercise-based. We’ve already got 30 half-marathon runners and 18 weightlifters on my floor, but I think a cyclist would make a good diversity hire.

"you wanted a pony" is the guilt talking. the knowledge that you didn't push the party to do the right thing out of triangulation and cowardice. you tried to play a very dangerous game of enticing the enemy at the expense of alienating your allies and you're lashing out the people who warned you.

It’s annoying to see so many people giving “the NBA” (the league) credit for a statement put out by the NBPA (the players union). Billionaire NBA owners have a lot of agency in this moment; it would be *great* if they actually did say something; but until they do, they shouldn’t get credit for it

Telling my 2-year old it’s the President’s fault that he’s only allowed to listen to the Sesame Street theme song twice in a row. Political education can never start too early.

At the end of the day, the Black Lives Matter era was about whether people should be killed in the street, and lots of people decided yeah and put those little blue flags on their cars. It spread to everyone because it stopped for no one.

People get upset when you say that Dem leaders are controlled opposition. Maybe they are, maybe not. What’s unarguable is that they see protecting against their own voters as a critical part of their role, and a higher priority than maximizing their own electoral success or political power

the local DA should indict it. if they cannot serve the warrant because ICE has more men with guns, they should say so.

There's an old saying from Ron Paul - I know it's in Lenin, probably in Ron Paul - that says there are decades where weeks...uh... and there are weeks where, uh...it's happening

i can't help but think that october 7 and the response thereto really put the final nail in the "rules based international order" - by totally capitulating to the express and overt idea that "international law is fake," western states let the fig leaf fall and in so doing left themselves exposed

Robert Kennedy must be sent to prison

Or delude themselves into thinking they can opt out of it (Cassian on the resort planet) or that they can free themselves by keeping their heads down and working within it (Kino Loy)

Turning the most successful survivors of The Fraud Industry into the wealthiest people in world history at right around the same time that we started electing The World’s Most Corrupt Man to be president was maybe, in hindsight, a mistake.

Scum. Absolute scum.

There’s a certain word that Brits/Australians use pretty freely, but which Americans consider much too offensive to use basically ever. What’s a good equivalent for an American to use, to capture the same sense meant by the British and Australians? Anyway, the Heat still have a full team of those.

I thought that Jimmy Butler and Kyle Lowry leaving the Heat would make it so I didn’t hate them as much but nope turns out they are still absolutely insufferable

Maybe the most fascinating belief among the billionaire class, especially the Silicon Valley set, has been their confidence that if they blow up the specific conditions and institutions that put them on top, they will certainly come out even higher on top

This is the sort of statement that was expected from every university president and law firm partner over the last year. That those statements weren’t made played a huge part in where we are now and people will remember.

The past couple days have made it clear that arresting and prosecuting Johnathan Ross isn’t just the right thing to do, it is necessary to prevent future violence by ICE who have interpreted the situation as “we can do that to whoever we want”

He didn't shoot her in the head at point blank range because he felt like he was in danger. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he was furious that she wasn't afraid of him. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he felt emasculated.

We’ve transitioned from a dynamic where the media would invent inflammatory headlines about what Dems say, but where those headlines would have some halfway-justifiable basis in fact, to one where the media will invent inflammatory headlines about what Dems say regardless of what they actually said.

This needs to happen, and the only way it happens is if we're prepared to treat as null and void the inevitable blanket pardons. A coherent account of how and why they're invalid, and the political will to do what it takes to make that stick.

This is literally what they do whenever a Black person is killed by police. No matter how solid the evidence is, they will keep pushing that lie, not just to poison the conversation and make sure the killer walks free, but to reassert the political idea that these people deserve to be killed.

You know, after thinking about it for a little bit, I’m not so sure that the guy who dedicated his whole adult life to empowering the guy who promised to fill our streets with a personal army of violent stormtroopers was in fact “doing politics the right way”

You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today. This could be you.

The “prosecute the former regime at every level” candidate has my vote in 2028.

I agree with this, but I also think that accepting international jurisdiction over some of the crimes committed by this administration may be a necessary step for our country regaining the world’s trust after he’s gone

There’s a lesson here

IMO the argument is that you can make things into big enough deals that it matters. Khanna found Massey and found survivors and made the Epstein Files the gigantic story it should be. Only then did establishment Dems come along. You can, in fact, make things into big hairy deals if you do it right.

It’s genuinely wild that the United States spent decades building an elaborate rules-based international order which de facto cemented its permanent status as the dominant global hegemon, sustained by ideology rather than might, and now is just blowing it all up for literally no reason

A hearty “fuck you” to this snivelling little loser who boasts with so much arrogance about our “superpower” status while doing all he possibly can to destroy everything that made us that.

"what do you expect dems, who have NO POWER, to do???" and then they do this 8 times a month

“Let’s give powerful insiders possessing secret information the ability to take money directly from the pockets of gambling addicts, who are in turn enabled to bet at any time on literally anything in the world that they happen to think about” is a helluva business model if you have no soul

The NBA fandom at large just rolls their eyes when Boston Celtics fans insist the Boston Celtics’ don’t have a one superstar team. The Jays aren’t Batman & Robin—they’re more like The Hulk & Thor. Two way superstars are rare indeed but Boston’s had the Jays since 2017-18 & they’re in their primes.

me, a long time jaylen brown truther, watching his 2025-26 season:

That’s future NBA Hall of Famer Jaylen Brown to you

hey remember when a bunch of middle-aged drunk korean lawmakers climbed the locked gates to the national assembly to hold an emergency session after the president gave illegal orders to the military, all of which ended with said president being sentenced to prison

Also lol at the democrats being like “oh I thought he ran as the peace president???” Yeah he could do that because ice cream Joe decided to do nothing about infinite toddler murder for a year leading up to the election

A functioning Congress will have articles of impeachment drafted by the end of the day. Our Congress will just go to social media to basically say “We don’t like this, but what are you gonna do?”

Obviously not the main thing to be concerned about today, but if you’re “trading” on these sites without inside info at this point, you are just a mark
