If a book is written by AI, there is no author. If there is no author, then no one should get paid, and no one can charge you for reading it Exactly how is Barnes and Nobel going to "sell" AI collections of letters, numbers, and punctuation? They own nothing and have no legal right to charge folks

Many of you are asking how you can help me. My only ask is this: Spread the word about the threats to democracy and how we can fight back. Tell everyone to subscribe to Democracy Docket for free and share its content with everyone you know. Thanks. bit.ly/4a7l1TR

This👇🏽 deserves to be posted 100 times but I’d be labeled spam.

Quick question Why does the dias at any news conference need to have wall to wall people behind the speaker? Are they paid extras? Yes, I know they are, but what is the point?

Y'all know what to do with this one...😎

Another thing the next admin needs to address is the large number of monopolys that exist to make only a few super rich. Tear them apart just like we did to the robber barrons.

Here is a quote of all the truthful things DONna said last week; " " Just like the week before. Hang in there everyone and always remember to look up and see the Bluesky when ya need a break Be well and be kind

A thought. Isn't Tiger Woods wealthy enough to hire someone to do the driving for him? What am I missing here?

Just wondering, has anyone seen any positive effect from ICE being deployed to airports? Other than the obvious benefit of getting them on camera that is.

Read this great article on the topic of AI. It's seems pretty grounded to me, but I'll let you decide. At least it's a perspective from a rational point of view. bigthink.com/the-long-gam...

An observation on AI and its ability to pick stocks. The headline aways reads "AI makes thousands on stock picks" My question would be "How many iterations was it running?" Experts admit they don't know how AI actually operates, so how do we know the "answer" is the only one it created?

Thank you, Dice Rat.

I see the top US general said "Iran cannot outlast us". We heard the same foolish statement all through history North Korea Vietnam Afghanistan Iraq None of these countries could "outlast us" right? Again, our military doesn't understand you can't bomb an idology into submission.

In the future A business can only own one news outlet. No exceptions. All outlets must cite facts, not theories with no facts to back them up. Violation requires retraction played every hour for two days. Here's a start. What have I missed?

Read and share all over..he nails it

An insight I made today. The fact that the Supreme Court hasn't ruled on Trumps tarrifs yet kinda makes me believe they were just waiting for the house to make a move first. "See Trump, it wasn't us" Could be wrong. What do you think.

Quick question. When will SCOTUS finally rule on tarrifs? Asking for light checkbooks nationwide.

A presidential comparison. Obama was able to deport 3 million people during his presidency without special forces tactics and terrifying the whole country with a private army of goons. Just one example of where Obama was better at "presidenting" than Trump will ever be capable of.

So today our dictator ran back to the only warm sefe place he can find now. The campaign trail. Where his lonely few will give him the adoration he so desperately needs. The sad act of a truly unliked and despondent being. He will soon realize that even they have no longer have any feelings him.

YES 👇 WE DO......

Make it viral.

A question on the Venezuela invasion. If it was just the arrest of a wanted criminal they were going for, what were all of the US military assets doing there? Sure looked like a military operation directed by the war room to me.

I see that the CDC is reporting on the number of flu cases that are occuring in the US. Sorry, but I have no confidence in the values they are reporting. Could be more or less. I'll wait to see numbers from actual experts who know what they are doing to represent an accurate assessment.

Great read. Spread it far and wide. 👇👇👇👇👇👇👇 Mitt Romney Is Right: Tax the Rich Before the Pitchforks Come Out open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

Watched "Idiocracy" tonight. One of the best documentaries I have ever seen. Only one factual error I noticed was that they had the year wrong. It wasn't 2505, it is 2025. But we're not that good as a nation now are we. 👍

A thought on Amazon, Wayfair, et all. Why not make an LLM that concentrates on all things for sale? Allowing you to directly purchase items from the manufacturer, creator, artist, musician, etc. No middle man, just you and the current owner. Just a thought on getting around the monopolies.

Question on the federal bailout to farmers. The money will be set to the farmers, but what determines how much each farmer gets? My guess (not fact chkd) is that it will be based on acreage. If not, given equally, 2.6m farmers share 12b, each farmer gets 4615.38. That will cover costs? Not!!!

A thought on Ukraine and NATO. Since the US is bailing on both, why not have a special session of NATO and just bring Ukraine in. This is world peace we're talking about, so screw the rules. If not this, other suggestion Create Ukraine Defense Alliance and everyone join in.

A thought on the Ukraine peace deal. How many people have died in Gaza since a ceasefire was declared. According to the UN. 300 killed and 900 injured. news.un.org/en/story/202... What makes anyone think a US brokered peace deal with Russia would be any different?

‼️ Friends, this is very important. Please share to whoever this may concern, especially if you are in the United States. Ukraine wants peace. Lasting, just, sustainable peace, and not a pause before the next bloodbath. I cannot stress this enough.

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

"There aren’t 30 million undocumented immigrants and there’s next-to-no evidence that illegal entry is responsible for the nation’s housing crisis. This is nothing more than anti-immigrant demagogy, a rank nativism meant to malign and dehumanize an entire category of people." @jamellebouie.net

Let's let farmers farm again. Corporate farms get a 20% tax on profits. Makes them less desirable. Single owner farms get land purchase assistance and annual crop/livestock insurance. Also, fed loans on equipment/ livestock purchases. Start here anyway and see what can be done.

An observation Why do we air or report on anything Leavitt says in the briefing? It's always lies, no matter the topic or the subject of any question. Imagine if we didn't know what she said. What grand effect would it have on any of us? If ya need lies, just watch Faux News. Be well and be kind

This is powerful stuff and must be read and shared...But @therealjackhopkins.bsky.social "late at night…at my kitchen table…two mugs of coffee" And you say you protect you sleep!? What gives, man? #Coffee #Insomnia

So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube. Over and over. On all platforms (some of y’all are still on X). *1981 Sherrilyn horrified by 2025 Sherrilyn saying “let’s post Reagan’s speech.” youtu.be/5t5QK03KXPc

I know that Florida has its own little army that only reports to the Governor. Why don't other states use a similar tactic to create a force to protect their citizens from unlawful invasions? I mean, that's what Trump did right?

This Thanksgiving, I'm grateful for the power of the people. Let's do this. 🍂

Please repost!

I saw a article on how many arrests ICE has made. Really big numbers too. Now, I would like to see the number of convictions. I mean, if you arrest 1000 people and only convict 10 that's not a great record. Also, you have started 990 wrongful arrest law suits.

NEW: No Kings is this Saturday, and here are my tips for how to mitigate anxiety in large crowds. Feel free to share! youtu.be/nxpkVk9TGgQ?...

Don’t know who else needs to hear this but it would be good to have a strong showing of American Flags at the rallies on Saturday to combat the GOP talking points that it’s a “hate America” rally!! Please repost and pass this on to as many as possible!!

I'm old. I remember all of the "other" peace treaties America brokered in the middle east. Time and time again, politicians celebrate, only to have it all fall apart. Now that there is nothing left standing on the battlefield let's have a treaty ... so we can start all over again. Sad

I had a thought. What was it like when they "relocated" all of the Japanese residents on the west coast? Not everyone had a movie camera in their pocket to document what happened, but my guess it was pretty much what we see of ICE operations today. The mirror rarely shows Americans as "nice" folk
