David Brooks, who wrote in the NYT last month, "The Epstein Story? Count Me Out" is... in the latest Epstein photo dump published by @oversightdemocrats.house.gov. He should absolutely be fired by NYT for this. Major conflict of interest that he didn't disclose.

The mayor-elect of one of the most important cities in the nation is an outspoken socialist, quoting Eugene Debs from the podium, and millions of dollars allied against him could not stop his victory. The pendulum swing is coming and it's gonna be a motherfucker.

Ten thousand fucking percent. Like, I get it. I get that you're despairing. Shit is rough. But skeeting "we're so fucked" ten times a day accomplishes nothing, alleviates nothing, and contributes to learned helplessness. In all seriousness, if you feel that welling up? Log off. You need a break.

Zero tolerance is the ONLY and FITTING response to genAI being used in production of media. Sure, you might think it's too harsh. Sure, they might've only used it for early stuff in development, etc Listen, it's not even a SLIPPERY slope, there is NO friction at all unless we speak out against it.

Bari’s complaint was “there’s nothing new here” and while that’s untrue it’s also irrelevant “we intentionally sent people to be tortured in a hellhole and bragged about it and The Hague is too good for everyone involved” is a story that simply cannot be told enough

Oh, I had one of those! Except instead of being about how Elvis was a groomer, it was every time I posted that ULINE was literally run by theocracy-craving disinfo-peddling fascists and we should all stop using their services. Think I'll post this link again! He hates it. refuseuline.com

People making fun of their families with thick accents continues to be the cheat code to amusing me www.youtube.com/shorts/dNYRe...

Apparently the new "scandal" on FoodTok/FoodTube is "This person claims to be a professional private chef, but they're just cooking for family/friend functions!" ...That's. That's not an unusual way to get started, though. I'd honestly guess that's how MOST catering/private chef gigs starts.

The full spiked 60 Minutes CECOT package, clean & subtitled. 1/5

it is grimly hilarious to watch a dunning kruger unfold in real time

Last call! Order by 10pm today and I’ll make sure that your order is available for pick up at @howlingpages.bsky.social tomorrow!

The right has a well-organized, well-funded media ecosystem for grievance politics, a "this thing upsets me" to "hm, protocols of the elders of zion you say? Sign me up" pipeline. Literally autoplay basically anything on youtube, then wait for blood libel to show up

And now someone has uploaded a version that wasn't filmed off a TV. There's also the torrent link there, which is probably the fastest way to download the 60 Minutes segment on CECOT if you want to save the file locally to your computer.

Look up a graph of OpenAI's incestuous funding. If you and 6 friends passed the same $20 back and forth, none of you would get rich. But when it's 7 billionaire freaks passing the same wad of cash back and forth, somehow they do get richer. Even while losing billions a month doing this.

This MIGHT work if it were for the fact that 1) "AI" firms just got busted selling chatlogs of millions, which would include all this "venting" 2) The number of times these chatbots, due to their toxic positivity coding, encourage negative emotions like violent impulses and suicidal thoughts.

Just a reminder, y’all: If you love a book, especially an indie-published one, tell the world! They can always use the help. And the authors (and publishers) love hearing it🖤☠️

It's important to note for the consultant people: Kat is tied for first place, she's raised more money in this race than anyone else, and she hasn't used Twitter in months. It's a website filled with racist AI snuff films and it's rigged against you specifically. There's no good reason to use it.

Kinda irritated with my algorithm, it should have been showing me this guy YEARS ago. Gonna try his chicken stock tonight. He's very relatable, too, cuz if *I'D* ever worked directly under Heston Blumenthal at The Fat Duck, I'd never shut up about it, either. :V www.youtube.com/watch?v=3k20...
