Did US Special Forces just inadvertently confirm there was a CIA operation in Venezuela?

What a quote.

“Norman Rockwell is a great American artist”

I don't understand how we are still stigmatizing people for wearing masks during respiratory virus season in 2025. Really, people?

Trump Still Polling Well With Working-Class American Pedophiles https://theonion.com/trump-still-polling-well-with-working-class-american-pedophiles/

if you venture deep enough into the Parkway Central Library in Philadelphia, you can meet what’s left of Charles Dickens’ pet raven, Grip

reminder that caldwell’s most recent book argues that the civil rights act of 1964 was something akin to a constitutional abomination that produced a world of white subordination

I guess I lost track of Brigitte Bardot after my childhood where I learned that she was a famous hot lady from the past and am just catching up on her recent activities of loving animals, hating non-white people and being dead

I saw Hunter S Thompson speak for his Generation of Swine book tour. I brought my book hoping he’d sign it. After the event I caught up to him, and asked if he’d sign my book. He looked at the book, at me, back at the book. I realized I didn’t bring a pen as he turned and walked away. I’m an idiot.

Trump Urges Supporters To Move On From Societal Disdain For Pedophilia https://theonion.com/trump-urges-supporters-to-move-on-from-societal-disdain-for-pedophilia/

Zuckerburg is paying only $190M to settle an $8B lawsuit by FB shareholders for the Cambridge Analytica crime. $8B would’ve been 3% of his net worth, and $190M is .08%. ~$75 for ordinary working people. “If the penalty for a crime is a fine, then that law only exists for the lower class.”

TIL Japan built the bullet train before California built the 5 freeway. The best time to build a high speed rail line was 20 years ago, the second best time to build one is today.

Let me be explicit. If you hear anyone say replacing fossil fuels with renewables is going to be expensive, they're either misinformed, uninformed, or lying to you. Even leaving out the massive economic costs of #climate changes caused by burning fossil fuels, #renewables are cheaper now.

I knew this was gonna happen, and absolutely the fuck not. she‘s an antisemitic fascist trying to rebrand herself. Bye.

This is a great example of how google AI overview generates probable rather than factual text. I could potentially have a newsletter of this name that focuses on those topics. But I do not. (But check out Writing Hacks and The Important Work!)

Nice example. LLMs can be useful in some ways; but providing information is not one of those ways, because they are simply not designed to do that (except sometimes by accident).

good morning mr president, heres your daily brief on last nights kimmel and seth meyers…thats right sir, they were very mean and nasty…yes sir, you have time allotted to post about them before your daily mri and dementia test

And it was Jewish refugee from the NAZIs Lise Meitner who figured out how to split the atom. Miller's racism would be bad enough, but it is amplified by his being an ignoramus who has a very limited & inaccurate grasp of actual history. The US's & anyone else's.

How I'm walking out of 2025

An abled person can go around. A disabled person is completely stuck. This shit is so fucking vile.

Google is hosting a CBP app that uses facial recognition to identify immigrants, while simultaneously removing apps that report the location of ICE officials because Google sees ICE as a vulnerable group. “Big tech has made their choice.” www.404media.co/google-has-c...

In case there was any doubt about where big tech stands.

Say it with me y'all sex segregation in sports is to protect mens feelings

They say imitation crab is the sincerest form of crab

i don’t see how any of the benefits of chatgpt and other consumer-facing LLMs can possibly outweigh their incredible ability to induce suicides

Remember: When Tylenol was poisoned *by an outsider* and killed people, the company recalled all their products & redesigned them. When Intel’s Pentium had a bug so obscure it affected 1 in _9 billion_ long division calculations, they recalled their chips. ChatGPT was made deadly *by its team*.

Sunday Taquitos #8: Never Wrong Art by Ivan Ehlers.

Disgustingly predictable behavior.

Imagine it being easier to just pay the 8 billion dollars and it won't affect you in the slightest. Man what have we done lol

”and have failed to meet the basic duty of a public artist: to perform for all people," Bing Crosby refused to play at a venue unless Louis Armstrong was given equal billing. The Beatles refused to play segregated venues.

Since you’re on Bluesky you probably didn’t need another reason to resent the gun lobby, but just in case you were on the fence… it’s killing the loons! (Though we anglers deserve most of the blame tbh.) Great/frustrating @cestmoilanglois.bsky.social feature. 👇 www.biographic.com/why-are-loon...

Literally had to go double-check, after seeing the reference to “dismal ticket sales” alongside the demand for $1 million in supposed damages, to confirm: It was a free concert.

There is so much about MAGA that like Trump’s M.O. is about forcing those who oppose them to engage and “participate” in or witness their domination. An entire regime of people who want more than anything to be seen performing power.

deadass?

I did a test to see if I could remember all the Roman numerals, but I forgot 1, 1000, 51, 6 and 500. IM LIVID!

Post a perfect album from the 90s that isn't Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, or Alice In Chains

I’d LOVE to see Sinatra put PeeWee German in his place!

"Well, I tried to back out but my lawyer tells me it would be smarter to just do the show, so here I am. Tonight, for you, I'm going to do a little something I call The Trump Aristocrats. There's this president, and he wants to bang his daughter, only his sons .... tap tap did someone kill the mic?"

I assume this sort of thing is true of every single ICE employee.

Revolting Cocks

Speech has never been freer! Not performing for the president is now illegal.

Honestly? Living in Alabama. When you live between Selma and Birmingham and Tuscaloosa, it is fairly impossible to fall into the "this is the worst it has ever been and it can't get better" pit. It was way worse for people here, in living memory, and they didn't shrug & give up. So I can't either.

This is the funniest shit I have ever seen. He kicks the dude in the beans and then mocks him
