The number of times I find myself wondering why this commercial looks so weird and then it occurs to me that it's probably because it's AI is kind of shocking. It also isn't a good look, IMO.

Never forget this: The forces rigging our economy, undermining our democracy, polluting our planet, and stoking hatred are counting on you to give up. Cynicism is how they win. Stay clear-eyed and ready for the fight ahead.

Aye

She ignored the question, but here’s the answer: The Trump admin doesn’t think that a swastika is a hate symbol.

JP Morgan knew about Epstein's sex trafficking, but didn't report it so they could keep doing business with him.

The Epstein files are about so much more than the disgusting, criminal dealings of one man. They're about how the rich and powerful are rigging our entire system to give themselves money, cover, and influence. Buying elections. Warping our economy. Subverting justice. Enough.

This GOP age-reframing is all over the place. Stay vigilant.

Trump’s racial profiling ICE goon army is ripping parents from kids

we should feed everybody actually all the time there is no reason for anyone to be hungry and/or homeless

Very important for people to read this portion of the Epstein Files Transparency Act so you understand 1) why Mike Johnson was so upset today, and 2) what is NOT permitted to be redacted by the DOJ.

They said on NPR today that Trump supports releasing "all the Epstein files that are unclassified" so I'm guessing there are two things that happen: either the DOJ says they can't release the files because of an ongoing investigation, or they've classified everything about Trump.

I really need one reporter to ask Trump what he think asylum means.

I love how a few people's argument is "we need better guardrails" and not "we should stop leaving our children with robots"

i don’t want AI-performed anything. i want a work-life balance where i don’t mind having to load and unload the dishwasher.

Pretty ironic that the Trump administration having just blown up its 21st boat and brought the total number of civilians killed since September to 83 has the nerve to label anyone a terrorist. Only terrorist I see is pedogrifter in the Oval Office kissing dictator ass everyday.

Antisemitism is a lot like Qanon child abuse conspiracies in that there’s this real and bad phenomenon and, parallel to that, what can only be described as a large scale mass psychosis about a mostly fictional version of the same phenomenon

Yianni’s Diner in Castle Shannon is offering free Thanksgiving meals for anyone in need, no questions asked. Also, Yianni’s is only steps away from the Willow T station. They’ll have 500 takeout meals

I'm really, REALLY not okay with the ICE ads. Geez these are pure evil. They're just straight up Nazis and not even trying to hide it.

MTG isn't speaking truth to power. She is trying to grab a seat on a lifeboat after she helped steer the ship into an iceberg.

Blending family and governance

I know this shouldn't need to be said, but even if the people Epstein trafficked and forced into sex work who were repeatedly raped by his rich buddies were 35, that wouldn't make it any more acceptable. The age doesn't matter.

I'd like to go back to a time when the country isn't run by the biggest hypocrites in the world being propped up by the biggest hypocrites in journalism and promoted by the biggest hypocrites on social media.

So let me get this straight: The President’s plan to lower prices is to roll back some of his own tariffs?

"Trump will likely respond to his declining popularity by accelerating efforts to immunize himself against accountability, and by attempting to distract via foreign wars and domestic repression. He will also likely escalate his and allies’ looting of America..." plus.flux.community/p/democratic...

I am begging America to not be stupid enough to embrace a racist and an antisemite because Donald Trump thinks she's a meanie. Just grab some popcorn and watch the Nazis fight.

“AI” is truly the perfect crime Plausibly presenting a magic slave to consumers, businesses and investors when it depends on criminal and unethical behavior to create and operate and is ultimately irretrievably broken and can never work as you promise (and you know it). It’s fascinating and scary.

It's a weird pattern I've seen in the US both in politics, in private and in the workspace: often the magnitude and severity of a response is measured by how much money is thrown at a problem, not by the outcomes. I have no idea where that comes from, but it's not as common elsewhere.

With news of a bird flu case of unknown origin in Washington State, I can't help but think that we could have spent the past five years improving ventilation and making indoor spaces safer and we haven't.

It's funny how we can find government money to throw at things like this because people think they'll get rich, but we couldn't find the same money to throw at a massive push to switch to renewables, isn't it?

It's disturbing enough that a lot of people believe chatbots because they sound so rational and logical and authoritative even if they're completely full of shit or just placating you. Making people think they're getting advice from Jesus added to the mix? Seems like the worst possible idea.

I am again really shocked that the Epstein stuff released so far is theoretically mostly not meant to actually damage Trump and is probably supposed to make him look good and it looks BAD.

Elon Musk says he needs money to move humanity to Mars because we're destroying Earth when he could stop AI shit from escalating energy usage and then pour the money he already has RIGHT NOW into things that actually would stop climate change and make a massive difference here.

I'm reading "he never got a message" in the Epstein documents as, "he wasn't getting a massage--it was sex" rather than "he didn't have sex with someone." I'm a little surprised that conservative media is running with that one thinking it clears him somehow.

Every "population crisis" article in western media is just "WHERE ARE THE WHITE BABIES" in disguise and we absolutely do not have to give any credence to any of them

JD Vance owns a company that buys American real estate and sells it to foreign investors. They specifically target Americans in crisis to buy their property for less than it is worth.

Every ad now

A day care teacher was released from federal immigration custody just hours after a federal judge ruled her arrest last week “unlawful."

The ICE raid on a Chicago apartment building that saw doors kicked in, children zip-tied, and armed agents rappelling from a helicopter? It has resulted in ZERO criminal charges. www.propublica.org/article/chic...

The craziest thing about all the Epstein stuff we're seeing is that this isn't even the bad stuff and it's insanely damning to Trump.

Congress needs to explicitly state that Trump is not allowed to attack Venezuela or Nigeria and has to stop the boat strikes.

These Epstein emails make at least one thing abundantly clear: The rumors that Trump “kicked Epstein out of Mar a Lago and cut ties with him” were bullshit.

I'm legit worried we'll wake up tomorrow and find out Trump bombed a country because of all the Epstein news.

🤮

I don't think legacy media is reading the room correctly on the Epstein Files. Many of us are asking why they have ignored this story for the last decade? Why did they dismiss all of us who were concerned that Trump might be compromised? And where is their fucking contrition and apology now?

If Trump has really been spending time with Epstein WHILE PRESIDENT certainly secret service and people like that are aware of it, right? And every single person who knew thought it was okay to keep something like that secret?

What do you mean "with Trump around"

If this is accurate, everyone should be calling for his resignation immediately.
