A 40-year-old man pulled up in a boat at American Fish Company restaurant and shot into the crowd, Southport police say.

Bill Burr at his next interview when asked about this:

Wait, so AI companies recognize the legitimacy of artistic IP now?

I wonder this often. It’s one of my biggest fears, such a terrifying way to die, and by the time you know you have it, it’s too late.

Yesterday The Intercept posted the piece I wrote for them to X. That account has 800K followers. As of now, the post has 5,500 impressions, 8 likes, and the only reply includes a Pepe the Frog image and the n-word. So yes, seems like the algorithm is working as intended!

Gonna have to teach everyone from scratch that the president isn't your boss, he's your employee

The funniest thing I’ve read all day.

Genuinely looks like a still from a lost Arrested Development episode with a Tobias does steroids B-plot

I did not know they don’t pay the half-time performer, but given the previous artists, that kinda makes sense. I would guess a lot of people didn’t know Kendrick Lamar before this year, and 50/Eminem were in a bit of a trough. Would make absolutely no sense for Taylor.

CAP'N CRUNCH TO SERVE AS THE POTATO SALAD OF AMERICA

We’re late in the series, and everyone loves a reference to earlier seasons when it was better!

Cool cool, so a thing where there very well may be no substitute. This isn’t even protectionist, it’s just suicidal.

If I were Comey, I would be extremely aggressive on Speedy Trial demands.

Did not know ABC had that power, seems unwise.

(As an aside, the list also contains Victor Hugo’s Les Miserables. How can that be considered a “DEI” book? That’s what happens when you use AI. People: Think for yourselves and stop using hallucinating robots to make decisions.)

They’re going to do them anyway, the view of the admin is it can impound at will, and they’ve been planning to do these in a new fiscal year regardless.

I think the answer here may be mundane; he gave the testimony remotely and he lives in EDVA. www.c-span.org/program/sena...

Maybe those pictures are real. The people who carry out assassinations and mass shootings are usually very strange people. But I don't trust a word coming out of Kash Patel's FBI unless there's independent corroboration.

Checked on X, this is real (in the sense that Kash did indeed post this).

Isaac Chotiner’s words are violence (laudatory)

He wants to "solve the autism problem" even if it means other people that aren't him get injured and die from treatable (fever) and preventable (vaccine) conditions doing things that doing actually affect autism rates.

A new standard has been set for absolutely murdering someone with words. Isaac Chotiner interviews, not even once.

The reason Macron can walk around NYC with only a very small security force is because if Macron went up to 100 random Americans and asked them "do you know who I am", between 95 and 100 of them wouldn't know. His security is much bigger walking around Paris.

Yeah, shockingly when you remove people who perform a few particular jobs in the economic system, that has knock-on effects to other parts. If you only have workers to build half as many houses, you don't need as many construction managers, sales reps, supply chain and logistics managers, ect.

So they did give us all 5G!

Getting a few replies like “meh, it has no chance of passing” (which I do note, in the post & the thread). But I think the fact that at least 6 Republican lawmakers want to essentially criminalize being trans online (and a whole lot else!) & feel comfortable publicly pushing that is still noteworthy

There’s so much stupid here, but even if you buy what he’s saying, significantly more people take acetaminophen, and significantly more often, than ivermectin!

They have stood up, and they’ve gotten in line with their checkbooks and laudatory statements ready. There’s never been a chance that these people would be guardrails for democracy, the only hope was that they’d see Trump’s incompetence as too much of a risk, but they haven’t. And they won’t.

Look at these democrats beheading … Barack Obama youtu.be/rb1KwiY2mB4?...

Very excited to be able to go back to not watching Kimmel by choice instead of by unconstitutional FCC fiat.

“Whether”

He’s making fun of them, but for a defense of the homeland, random folks having a weapon and knowing how to use it actually is a big threat, because it becomes impossible to effectively occupy.

I think it’s just a hard argument to make to the average American that they should care about noncitizens who aren’t in the US and who the government says are drug traffickers. It’s outrageous and terrifying to me, but like, my mom’s just not going to care and idk how to get her to.

Well, since I’m neither “media” nor “far left”, I guess I’m good, right?

Ah good, Chuck Grassley, someone that totally has all of their faculties and is not at all weird in a disturbing way! Let me just check his tweets real quick…

Will be interesting to see if in three weeks we get a spike in weekly unemployment claims. If I didn’t have a job after taking the DRP, I absolutely would file, there’s a pretty strong argument for constructive discharge just from the language of the Fork email.

Ross Douthat: The Trump Administration Is Violating the First Amendment The Right Way

The Taliban are famously cowed by US military might.

Wild that they did it in Cava, because if anyone recognized him, they’d definitely note it since what the hell is Tom Homan doing in a Cava?

Trump has learned that if he publicly shouts it, nobody will think it’s a crime, because obviously you wouldn’t shout what you were doing in public if it was a crime!

In some ways this is bad, but in some ways it’s good, because it makes it difficult for the administration the to disclose information to the press while denying they authorized its release. Anything reported by a journalist who is not then barred from the pentagon is official.

Soon

I’ve been getting the kinds of emails you get when someone like Dan McLaughlin or Erick Erickson decides to talk about you on Twitter: stuff about my mental health, the standard racial stuff about my kids, the panoply of demi-literate abuse one expects from their mediocre followers. /1

Back when I was an EMT, this was always hammered home: the first thing you do when you get to the patient is … find their ID so you can determine their biological sex. Otherwise how will you know if they’re supposed to have a heartbeat or not?

Me: the FCC is a government agency This person:

*starts chant* 11(c), 11(c), 11(c)…

Apparently this is what government employment in Houston is like (last one is a Harris County EMT) per this story www.chron.com/politics/art...

Can someone please ask Jason, if he wasn’t saying they ruled it was ok, wtf did he mean by “you could argue that case green-lit the FCC's actions here.”
