Hahahah yes there is a huge span of ideas from pure unadulterated chattel slavery to mere indentured servitude on one side and on the other side a monolithic "No."

My brother is an HVAC engineer - his comment "lol I love the AHRI president's comment. It’s too late dummies. We have already moved on."

Hahahaha like 99% of this money isn't just going to be looted and pocketed (quickly tries to work out what 1% of $1.8B comes out to)

Love it.

WUT?!

Given the number of people I see wearing them incorrectly... I mean it really can look quite stupid.

I was just talking about this. AI in a robust social safety net is very different than AI in a scam economy without one.

Good

Yes, I'm suing Matt Taibbi.

What the fuck is this, "flavors by AI" series?

Hi, tax law professor here. Trump and sons are NOT exempt forever (or anytime) from tax audits. Writing these words on paper signed by Todd Blanche doesn't make it a thing. In fact, I'm absolutely certain they'll all be audited in the future.

This is a truly disgusting, antisemitic comment. I’m appalled at the level of bigotry and xenophobia that has become normalized in our politics. We cannot accept it, and we must call it out regardless of what party or individual it comes from. (1/2)

this is a masterpiece

"Jewish congregations make up just 3.2% of all congregations nationwide, but account for 22% of the attacks against houses of worship... 0.6% of religious congregations nationwide are Muslim, yet attacks against mosques and Islamic centers account for 17% of the attacks." forward.com/opinion/8262...

LLMs are the equivalent of having an infinite number of monkeys at the typewriters. I prefer the other model: one monkey (me) typing infinitely quickly. It beats the infinite number of monkeys every time.

I see you. 😉 Real talk I am also prepared to discuss how blonde southern performances of gender shields economic actors from critical interrogation. Even the blonde southerners that we love. If that’s what they want to do.

There are no good billionaires.

It is the official position of the current government of 🇮🇱 that some 🇺🇸 Jews are not really Jews & that non-Orthodox Jews don’t deserve equal access to the Kotel & that certain 🇺🇸 Jewish organizations are a “cancer” within the Jewish community. Again, it all boggles the mind: bsky.app/profile/mcop...

It feels weird to live in a context where buying a hero to protect your mosque or shul is both possible and necessary. May the security guard's memory be for a blessing.

"What stage of capitalism is this?" Sometimes the State isn't going to reliably protect *your* spaces, even if that's something they do otherwise. Being able to pay a third party for that protection is better than not being able to do that.
