Trucks shouldn't be allowed within city limits. Make them offload their goods to smaller vehicles. I'm tired of IDOT using trucks as an excuse for stroads and I'm tired of trucks on roads they have no business being on. A semi should never go through a school zone.

Lots of folks captioning aurora photos like "for a few minutes we didn't think about politics" guess I'm built different, every time I'm out trying to see night sky stuff I frequently think about how much light pollution is entirely preventable with just a tiny bit of regulation

Dealer: alright everyone ante up Chuck Schumer: I fold Dealer: … we haven’t even dealt the hand yet Chuck Schumer: I 👏 fold 👏

I don’t think Democrats should reopen the government so long as Donald Trump is: - Trying to starve millions of Americans - Invading U.S. cities - Disappearing people - Taking a hatchet to public health - Gutting environmental regulations - Not funding foreign aid - Committing war crimes

Finally, this beast is complete!

I can’t believe that we as a society allow minors licenses to operate very deadly machinery and never require people with these licenses to retest to keep them

this is the most informative label on Bluesky, mufo-gossipy division

Yes. Read this and know your enemy.

I ~personally~ cannot wait for this AI bubble to burst I am sick of the yellow-stained slop images, mediocre vibecoded projects, shameless cheating, environmental destruction, and the soaring energy prices the worst people are getting richer, and making it worse for the rest of us in the process

JUBILEE!!

Nuremburg trials is the moderate position

I will say we’re lucky none of these mooks are smart enough to make a working rocket, so less risk of a new project paperclip

this is why actually doing your jury duty is so important lol

Stop sharing AI slop. It's one thing if you don't know or just made a mistake. No need to breathe down someones neck b/c its harder to tell nowadays. But if you do know (ESPECIALLY IF YOU DO KNOW) even if you're posting it to make fun of it or sharing it unironically... consider not doing that.

how the fuck am I supposed to live day to day when remembering that we have a gestapo that are abducting day care teachers from the parking lots of their day cares or stealing toddlers or any other number of absolute fucking horrors visited upon us

Had to share this from twitter just because

Given the (very disappointing!) Fortnite rumors, I am resurfacing this offer.

Since I’m not on Instagram or TikTok anymore, how the frell am I supposed to look for a tattoo artist to do a Pokémon tattoo?

It's pretty cool that the US economy is propped up entirely by continuing work on software thats only real functional uses are eroding consensus reality, spreading often politically motivated misinformation, and for various scams like impersonating your grandma and saying she's been kidnapped

this graphic is everything. this is why people overestimate the prevalence of violent crime and terrorism and support punitive police measures. they are quite literally distorting reality in order to keep you scared of the wrong things.

They literally ruin everything they touch
