You don’t need to think prior U.S. administrations have clean hands—obviously they don’t—to believe the current one is acting in uniquely dangerous and unprecedented ways.

Anyway, Article 33 of the Fourth Geneva Convention (1949) bans collective penalties, intimidation, and terrorism, while Article 51 of Additional Protocol I (1977) explicitly forbids acts meant to terrorize civilians.

Yeah. This isn’t Schumer being weak. He wanted the war just like Bibi did, and he’s not about to call for it to end, or to try to hold anyone responsible.

oh wow, so SHOCKING, "AI" doesn't exist actually (Apple paper proves LLMs can't math or think or understand a problem) nitter.poast.org/heynavtoor/s...

Wait a minute. ONLY 50? Is this a joke? Every one should. Every single one. They're horrible at this truly. And yes I could do it much better.

Thank you, Senator Kim! All of Congress should return ASAP. But if Johnson and Thune do not call for the return, all Democrats should return anyway and be a visible presence. Speeches on the Capital steps, going to the Whitehouse, making a plan to constrain and contain Trump.

"Why don't Americans—" we do. That's why many of my friends are in prison or dead.

If you think this is exhausting, imagine being Iranian.

Please stop saying TACO. We’re talking about an ungodly number of people who could die or maimed. It’s not time for cutesy little internet slang. We have to get away from this bizarre desensitization.

the domino meme, with "Rupert Murdoch starts a cable news channel" on the small end and "global armegeddon" at the big end

"Why don't Americans–" Motherfucker, I live in Minneapolis

I've now seen several posts from Democratic US Senators and House Reps calling for Congress to return to DC, and my only reaction to seeing these is: Do it. Just get on a plane and go back to DC. The House is in Recess, not adjourned. There was a pro forma session today. Go. Lead by example.

Anti-War protest tonight at 6 pm at the White House. Spread the word!

Getting a lot of demented quote tweets on this post, so let me address something. This is not an "uwu pwease hewp us. this isn't ouw fauwt" thread. It's all totally the U.S.'s fault. The point of the thread is that the U.S. congress isn't going to stop Trump and no one's going to overthrow him.

I am proud to be wearing a flag pin that says "No Nuclear Apocalypse" right now.

Kruschev in The Death of Stalin saying “The only choice we have is between his death and his revenge” is the point we are reaching quickly if not past

Look, people, it was either this or the status quo on trans people being allowed to (mostly) fully participate in society. You can see how it was an extremely difficult call.

Anything less and they are complicit

“A whole civilization will die tonight” is the most vile thing a US president has ever said, certainly during the post-1945 era when they’ve had the power to kill civilizations with the dropping of a bomb. I’m staring into the darkness. May this not be one of the most fateful days in human history.

Obviously not a substitute for Congress doing its job, but now would be a good time for Clinton, W, Obama, and Biden to say something jointly.

on the one hand, pronouns that some people don't like, on the other hand, wiping out entire civilizations. who can say really.

Imagine being a moderate Republican and getting outflanked on decency, morality, and basic humanity by these four nutters

"We had to drop the Bomb on Japan. It saved lives because so many more would have died invading the island" is the (flawed) justification I have heard so many times over the years. Likely being used in the Oval Office now.

If he was holding a gun to a child's head would anyone in congress try to stop him from pulling the trigger?

"A civilization dies tonight" Just called both my Senators to demand some kind of physical action, just not a tepid statement or floor speech. You should too.

One of the very best from Clickhole

Imagine being the humans who traveled the furthest from earth ever and you still can't get away from Trump.

Just to be clear, Donald Trump does not care if a bunch of journalists wear pocket squares with the First Amendment written on them as a “protest.” First of all, the man is functionally illiterate

I may be on the wrong side of this war.

I guess Anthropic heard about plannotator.ai ? code.claude.com/docs/en/ultr...

a world that celebrates Thomas is the world I want

How come the woke left is happy to support a Muslim mayor in New York but angry when Trump says "Praise be to Allah"?

This is what happens when 77 million people take leave of their senses and put a manifestly unqualified, unfit, mentally ill narcissistic man-child in charge of the country and the world's most powerful. military. This is what happens when the media 'bothsides' election coverage.

Thought it might be unreasonable that I was thinking this, but looks like I'm not the only one

Just published the project site for LIGEON, a chess game study app I made with Electron and React using Claude Code noahlz.github.io/ligeon/

We wanted to know how everyday Judean people felt about the crucifixion of Jesus. So we talked to three Roman soldiers at a taberna in Gadara.

The president has died. He was taking a shit when he croaked big time, but unlike Elvis, was not on a toilet. Rest in peace sir, no one can say you weren’t alive recently and they can’t take that away from you.

The M on Mario's hat actually stands for misogyny. Still think he's cool?

it’s true that overall likes are way down on bluesky over the past year. however, if you look closely at the data, that’s mostly an anomaly resulting from the fact that your posts specifically have gotten worse and are dragging the vibe down.

Randomly ended up at the 2600 NYC meet up??

Been rewatching Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles (2008-9) and it's interesting from a 2026 perspective to watch a show where the premise is just "let's go find everyone making AI and assassinate them"

Fuck yeah @wired.com this is why I resurrected my subscription. LFG youtu.be/1d736ojx-ZY?...

Perfect

Are the people who were raving about OpenClaw a few short weeks ago the same ones now calling Claude Code's leaked code base a "dumpster fire?"

Sorry I haven't been posting as much these last few months. My mental health has been pretty good.
