I mean part of the answer is they sincerely didn't think Iran would follow through, since the US leadership has demonstrated they do not comprehend their enemies as human with capacity for thought, but also things never work the way you *imagine* them to. Even unlimited stockpile wouldn't be 100%.

everyone should consider elopement as a viable option

that they have kept their relationship intensely private to the point that this is how we find out is probably the best sign they might actually make it anyway, rules are rules, here is the exact moment she fell in love

what's wild about the last repost - that doesn't even mention the fact that most of them are pedophiles.

What a fantastic idea. A groundbreaking European initiative, TexMat, is piloting an automated deposit-return system for used textiles, drawing inspiration from bottle-return schemes already successful in several countries. euroweeklynews.com/2026/02/28/c...

has anyone seen my denim jacket with the Tasmanian devil embroidered on the back. Or my chambray shirt with bugs bunny embroidered on the front pocket. Or (crucially) my jeans with tweety bird embroidered on the butt pockets

I'm strictly talking about the color scheme I have no idea if this bird is racist or anti-union.

I feel this about so much that’s going on and hate that we’re forced into this unhealthy dichotomy by these people inflicting suffering, injustice, and ruining so many lives thru their wanton actions, yet will never feel the consequences themselves.

“And this is why daddy got nukes.”

Individual solutions won't stop systemic problems, but talking to the children in your life about the myriad dangers of AI is now a necessary part of being a responsible adult.

Nothing is surprising about the US starting another war. Nothing is more dangerous to Earth and mankind at large than the United States and its complete and utter failure to curtail the worst excesses of humanity. The US oligarchy and its influence on global politics must end.

Hello Saturday. From Book of Hours, MS M.358 fol. 32r, C15th.

A broader takeaway I think is nobody should be allowed to be so rich that being told no, or being held accountable, represents such a moral injury to that person's psyche that they feel like their only recourse is to burn the world down.

Thats enough omens thank you very much

Fucking hell when I pointed out this morning Ellison had a history of hiring (untalented) men who faced allegations of sexual harassment, had no idea a new one would drop in hours www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie...

this was a real thing and the department of licensing blamed new technology so i’m pretty sure that means they got sold an ai service

I look at images of the universe, inspired by the dazzling light that paints our incomprehensibly vast sky & listen to a story of someone who used to work with their kitten right beside them and my job is to put those two things together. I'm just incredibly humbled I get to capture life this way.

We need better consumer protections in this country. Full stop.

This is a big one. A newly uncovered document has revealed the existence of a mystery Epstein investigation. It was spearheaded by the DEA and involved drug trafficking and money laundering. Epstein was one of 15 targets. The other 14 names are redacted. I've got questions.

ribeye for me, liver for you

Why in the NAME OF ALL THAT IS HOLY are you, a workers rights guy, USING FUCKING AI

Apparently America has a long history of private prisons, not just nowadays. “Opened in 1873, the privately operated detention facility housed petty delinquents and orphans... Some were held on loitering charges, while others were detained over their perceived ‘incorrigibility’."

Individualism as a response to injustice is a mistake. We know now it doesn’t work. In the case of Epstein, it’s because there’s likely things going on behind the scenes that we don’t even see. Expecting an indivdl to find the exact right way to appeal to the system to make injustice stop is absurd.

the party that wants to require ID to vote abruptly invalidating a thousand people’s IDs overnight seems like a pretty giant flashing red light

This is a Columbo plotline

lmao but its so true they program these computers to make the cruel decisions they WANT to make, reprogram them if they DON'T come to those conclusions and then go 'well its the algorithm. its the llm. its just math. not our fault. ignore that we chose to use this.'

This legitimately sounds like the final boss of hell

Important article. Nothing burns me up more in the literary space than the same folks who praise dark and mafia romance with their whole chests denigrating urban romance. Tell us why you find one genre acceptable but not the other. I’ll wait. baltimorebeat.com/black-urban-...

It was literally just tweaking a program that's existed in New York since the 1880s: he upped the pay and publicized the program. It's wild how little it required.
