Whoops, never thought to program them to deal with a stoplight that’s not working.

Around half of San Francisco is without power right now and something like 1/3rd of intersections I drove through had waymos stopped in the middle of them making a dangerous situation even worse. Do not let Waymo into your city.

This is a weird power outage in San Francisco right now.

The “release” of the Epstein files, like pretty much everything the Trump regime does, is a cruel joke.

Garcia: Well, first, I think we should be very clear: This is absolutely breaking the law. They have not produced actually what they were required to do, which was all the files by today in a way that was searchable for the public…

Trump spoke "with the motormouth intensity of a 20-something banker who just discovered cocaine and now has a really great idea for a new restaurant." www.vox.com/politics/472...

The third time in 2 months that the official DHS account has tweeted a Nazi term which means "ethnic cleansing" of all people of color from America and Europe.

Boy I really picked a great weekend to start reading The Wild Edge of Sorrow

I’m sure I’m not the only one who needs this right now. Have fun storming the castle!

Oh god people.com/rob-reiner-w...

This insane country breaks my heart. Every single day an average of 120 people are shot and killed. Gun safety laws (that the vast majority or us support) could prevent this, but all we’ll get are thoughts and prayers. I’m so sorry for everyone affected. 💔

Color me shocked 🙄

🎶 All I want for Christmas are the Epstein files The Epstein files Yes, the Epstein files Gee, if we could only get the Epstein files Then we’d have a merry Christmas 🎶

“The United States made this person into a child soldier, and now is experiencing what I think is one of the most horrifically bright-line cases of imperial blowback that we’ve seen throughout the 'war on terror.'"

Classic San Francisco, solving problems that don’t exist. One of the dumbest traffic “solutions” I’ve ever encountered; a neckdown on a block where it’s basically impossible to speed because there are 4-way stops at either end. Buh bye

The desperate hands of the global south seek to take back an overheated world. Seriously, what's next? The McHamburglar trophy in gourmet cooking? The Pol Pot Human Rights medal? The Jeffrey Epstein childcare grant? The Vladimir Putin democracy fellowship? The Weinstein-Cosby feminism prize?

Every paper in America should have a 6 inch headline: Sitting Member of Congress, Adelita Grivalja, Attacked by Trump's ICE with Chemical Weapons. The Congresswoman was hit by gas pellet munitions when coming upon an ICE abduction at a restaurant she frequents in her community. #ICELawlessness

Maybe FIFA is onto something. If we just give trump a fake award every day, he won’t have time for all the extrajudicial murder and other crimes. No way he could stay awake long enough to do both.

He literally got a made up award from one of the most corrupt organizations that has ever existed and he is positively delighted

Heavily armed tactical teams fired crowd suppression munitions at the Arizona lawmaker and protesters, claiming she was leading “a mob.”

Even God isn’t ok with Pete’s apparent adherence to the old saying “Kill them all and let God sort ‘em out”

It’s horrifying to realize that as Americans, this is who we are now

Dems should hound Rs relentlessly: Will they exercise oversight on these extrajudicial killings in a serious way? Trump and Hegseth are laughing in Congress' faces. Will Rs really debase themselves to shield the likes of *Pete Hegseth* from scrutiny? Seriously? 4/4 newrepublic.com/article/2037...

Nothing to see here 😱

Follow @nickturse.bsky.social to stay up-to-date with all of The Intercept's coverage of boat strikes in the Caribbean and Pacific Ocean. He broke the story that the U.S. attacked a Venezuelan boat multiple times to kill survivors on September 10:

When traveling this holiday season, please remember that Donald Trump raped children.

In case you needed more reason to despise Stephen Miller

What he's suggesting is blatantly racist and illegal Even if he could convince the MAGA Supreme Court justices to go along with any of this, it would tear this country apart And-unsurprisingly-not a single moment of empathy for Sarah Beckstrom or self-reflection on his role in her being killed

Trying to keep in mind that there are lots of things to be thankful for; including my son being home with us, my sweet dog, and this pie I’m pretty pleased with. Happy Thanksgiving!

If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

How to win friends and influence people: use AI to insult people at a party!

This article is from @markhertling.bsky.social - a retired three-star Army general - and everyone should read it.

If the 28-point plan came from Russia and somehow ended up in the hands of U.S. lawmakers, then we don’t have a “leak” problem we have a foreign influence problem. And anyone downplaying that should not be anywhere near national security decisions.

The correct answer to MAGA outrage over the Dem video is this: Are you effing kidding me? Of course it's reasonable to warn that Trump might be giving illegal orders. The evidence is strong that he actually is giving illegal orders! I went through that evidence here: newrepublic.com/article/2035...

Not news: trump is a disgusting heap of decaying garbage

I will never forget having to edit Jamal’s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered. He was calling for free expression in the Arab world. You can read it here : www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/glo...

This right here! ⬇️

A regime of avaricious, cruel goons isn't the same thing as a "fascist state," and the fact that they have to go to court, fight it out in state elections and legislatures, cower from being filmed (instead of filming *you*) means everything. Recognize this. Don't surrender to your fears. /19

So, fine, you don't care what the definition of "fascism" is. But please, think through how differently your strategies would be if America were a fascist state right now. It's not. You have all the powers of a democracy. Use them. Don't buy into the "fascism is now" drama. /16

“Chinese elites see Trump as “very soft” on their country…He is described as a president unconstrained by liberal principles, who weakens America’s standing…China has learned how to intimidate America’s President…” economist.com/internationa...

I despise long movies but Frankenstein is worth every one of its 149 minutes. Never thought I’d call a “horror” movie stunningly beautiful.

This is what people get wrong about ‘Frankenstein’

Trump really isn’t controlling much of anything at this point. What you’re seeing is the Stephen Miller agenda.

Pretty damning when your “friend,” the guy convicted of sex trafficking minors, says you’re the worst person in the world

Why is Trump trying so hard to stop the Epstein files from coming out? It must be because he cares so much about due process.

And we’re not even through season one

Once again, if you wrote a story in which the jetsetting corrupt FBI chief took a government plane to the "Boondoggle Ranch" an editor would tell you to get a different job, because you're not cut out for writing believable stories.

instead of saying this was good strategy, maybe senate dems should say: "the republicans were going to kill people by starving them to death, and because we aren't monsters, we decided to let this fight go. We'll keep fighting. Stop electing monsters."
