Maybe instead of committing atrocities, we could just make the rich pay their fair share and have universal healthcare and affordable housing instead. Idk, just spitballing here.

Jesus H Christ he is just not good at this politics thing. How the hell did he get this far in life

if you still use twitter you support white supremacy

Even the North Koreans would be ashamed by this one

State Police are still police. And #ACAB is just the truth of policing. I don't believe that any police agency would follow an order to do this

I understand that there are a lot of people out there who think they have good intentions and love to take their ideological opponents in good faith because it makes them seem fair and reasonable and I truly cannot overstate how dangerous this is to trans people and how much they should stop

When the instruction to use more AI comes down from your bosses.

Today, #adventofcode reminded me that you can do negative modulo. Which I didn't understand when I first learned it, promptly forget it, and only remembered when someone else's solution showed me.

can bluesky please stop hiding replies just because they have bad words in them? i'm a grownup, i can read the word "fuck"

I found a flowchart which helps you navigate the IT landscape

This should land you in the Hague

To be clear Lizza’s story is that Nuzzi sat on important matters of national significance for personal benefit and he’s sat on these details until he could personally benefit. All of DC media needs to be thrown into the sea. Anyone who defends these people is a goddamn clown.

Still have yet to see AI make my life better in any way

NEWS --> BBC confirms to me that they did edit a line out of historian @rutgerbregman.com's speech. It called Trump "the most openly corrupt president in US history." BBC also confirms this was done on the advice of lawyers. So Trump's threats worked. New piece: newrepublic.com/article/2036...

Google at its peak was basically the best information retrieval system in human history and they and every competitor decided going from there to “you didn’t want answers you wanted half-assed auto-complete 80%-wrong hallucinations” in a few years was the right idea

I'm just going to laugh at all of this

#Vikings kicker has a leg

/2 I was less kind than I might have been. I lost my temper. I told him that only fools were looking for explanations based in normality, and that it was obvious to everyone who wasn’t deluded that we were in a completely abnormal situation.

If you’re a journalist who’s still on Twitter, from now on in your writing you have to replace “the American people want” with “troll bots in Eastern Europe demand” Being there makes your judgment suspect. I don’t care how savvy you think you are, you’re marinating in a disinformation campaign.

Bezos has some secrets to hide

Bob Woodward had Trump, on tape, saying how dangerous covid was. At a time when Trump was telling the world it was nothing. He saved it for his book. Journalism is a broken field full of assholes

I distrust them because they are obviously fucking shit.

It doesn't take a year of research to know that billionaires do this. Just looking around will tell you this

@bbcnewsnight.bsky.social I hope you're not afraid to report this one

I think as a generation that saw a genuine tech revolution with smartphones, it's acceptable to reject this "sometimes it's a better search engine" crap

Breaking News: Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani is going to require all New York elementary school students to learn Arabic numerals. The madrasa indoctrination is starting very early. (This post is a test.)

I don't think they understand the idea of giving away. If you keep it, you didn't give it away

I will not stand for this. As the proud owner of a 2003 HP laserjet printer, that thing is powered by magic and just keeps working

First off, my suspension has ended. Got a little harsh with a post a few days ago but I didn’t have my feet on the ground and I’m sorry if I offended anyone. Will try to be more chipper. Knock on wood!

#Sanders is looking like a perfect #Browns QB

Picking a fight with people who are so much more popular than you, and are so much better at this, is a choice

steam is apparently allowing "this game had AI in it that it didn't disclose" as a valid return statement, so if you or anyone you know actually paid $70 for slop, get that money back

THREAD. A collection of photographs of excellent sheep I have met on walks. You will find the captions to each photo in the alt text.

The Republican president is a pedophile who has doubled my healthcare costs and let scores of violent criminals out of jail. But a Democratic mayor-elect wants to make busses free in a city I don't live in. I have never felt more politically homeless.

Like I dunno, maybe the reason it took a lady to break open the story of all the men protecting the dude trafficking underage girls is because the male journos were all emailing him making jokes about it?

@qntm.org Obviously there's no difference. But Marion ███████ just feels like a cooler name Like she had more lived experiences and anyway Marie Quinn is just a badass #thereisnoantimemeticsdivision

If Democrats release files showing that Trump was complicit in Epstein's pedophilia, and Trump tries to distract from it by starting a war with Nigeria or Venezuela, then Democrats will have blood on their hands.

Media standards: 1) No Democratic scandal on par with Trump-Epstein, so it’d be biased and unfair to five it much attention. 2) Trump wouldn’t be shamed into resigning and his cult of personality wouldn’t abandon him, so Trump-Epstein wasn’t worth pursuing. Way too many think that’s journalism.

The words of someone who wants access

Sadly the highly paid Dem consultant class didn't want this to be the message

#Packers #Eagles is a fine example of my belief that coaches are terrible at making choices to win games

Just the worst play calling choices from #Packers

#Packers have no kicking game. Why did #ESPN put up a FG target line

After yesterday’s surrender, we’re launching the largest Democratic primary program that we’ve ever run. We will not back any Senate primary candidate unless they call for Schumer to step down as Minority Leader. If you’re as pissed as we are, join this campaign to rebuild the Democratic Party. 👇

Can we like LOUDLY talk about how the shut down was literally a bunch of republicans pulling the "Cave to our bullshit, or we starve poor people to death" card. You, yes you, were just used as a political hostage. Your life was used as a bartering chip over these last 30 days. Go fucking riot.

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

The contrast could hardly be sharper. My friends and neighbors, armed only with whistles and voices, spend their weekend fighting off heavily-armed paramilitary goons. Meanwhile, these jagoffs capitulate, but not before securing another $1 billion for their own security.

America has never really been a democracy. It's a hodge podge of deals with slave owners, continued racism, and systems that are just insane when you sit down and actually think about them.
