Me checking the news hopefully. 🤞🏼

it's not that they think they're tricking anyone, they're showing off that there's exactly zero any of us can do when we know they're lying to us every day

The reason we're here is that tens of millions of people will punch a hole in a wall if they hear someone used food stamps to buy soda but they're fine if the right-wing podcaster turned fbi director uses his taxpayer funded private jet to go party whenever he feels like it bsky.app/profile/thed...

It me.

college senior understands education better than the school $70,000+/year to ask chatgpt to summarize readings, answer questions on the material, do the coding like journalists who expand trump/musk posts into paragraphs that version of the work is 100% AI replaceable, because it's not worth doing

The US President, which does not offer free healthcare to his own people, wants his own people to offer free healthcare… to Greenland… which already has free healthcare. Maybe it is time for another brain scan for the US president.

“Training a human takes 20 years of food”

"The American people will suffer the largest hit..." There, FIFY.

When you put it like this, a $75 million bribe to Melania and gutting the Washington Post seems like a small price to pay.

as far as i can tell “bio hacking” is just a goofy term for giving yourself some combination of an eating disorder and a drug addiction

I'd be more worried about the person taking money from aipac, marc andreesen and crypto

I like how Sam Altman always tries very hard to pretend he's somehow outside of the corporate behaviors he's criticizing, in some weird bid to get credibility he doesn't have

Oh no.

Maternal mortality in Louisiana is literally 40x Greenland (41.9/100k to 1.0/100k). They should send hospital boat to Louisiana.

Judge Goodwin: "An anonymous government is no government at all. It cannot be held accountable. A masked agent freely uses force without justifying his actions, and the public cannot name him to challenge his conduct. A regime of secret policing has no place in our society."

“In a criminal trial, I would feel morally obligated to convict, however, in a civil trial I could set those views aside,” adding, “I believe it would be to the benefit of the human race for Mr. Musk to be sent to prison.” www.sfgate.com/tech/article...

joyce is going after elon again

Hahaha so based on these details, Bannon is a fascist couch surfer who was making meth in a jacuzzi

Lol I cannot wait to see who's still defending this fascist apologist. Using your tax money to build death camps and he says rein in the Gestapo.

there is so much happening in that sentence

Every time a new story about this comes out I feel better about moving our newsletter off Substack. I'm happy to talk to anyone who's interested in learning about moving to Ghost (what we use) or other platforms. It was easy and we didn't lose subscribers

Every single time a story like this is reported, we must assume that there are many many more that do not.

every new software these days

the US coal mining industry employees ~50k people. For some perspective, The Gap has about 82,000 employees

This money has already been allocated by Congress. Why am I paying federal taxes for this man to terrorize my state with secret police and measles?

Vermont US Representative Becca Balint being interviewed by Drop Site News shortly after reviewing more, unreleased Epstein files saying "They're all a bunch of sick fucks"

Discord is switching to teen-by-default settings next month, with face scanning or ID upload required for full access. Unrelated - this past October, Discord suffered a data breach where 70,000 government IDs and info was stolen. (Discord official press release)

Straight people consistently treat any queer content as sensitive or age inappropriate so this should be a fucking mess.

In Boston ICE randomly pulled over this huge white Irish guy with a Mass drivers license, 20 years in the states, legal status, pending green card and have held him for 5 months, his citizen wife paid a $4k bond that was ignored(!) ICE forged his signature on deportation agreement, no appeal

Amongst other things, this again highlights the core point about due process. It’s bad enough to be in a “show me your papers” situation, but your precious citizen/non-citizen, “legal”/“illegal” distinctions are meaningless when you can’t prove anything to authorities because they don’t give a shit.

He wasn’t wrong.

The Champions League final in Germany last year opened with Linkin Park

Brett Ratner, the sex pest who came out of retirement to direct the Melania movie that Jeff Bezos spent $75 million on as thousands of people at Amazon and the Washington Post lost their jobs, helped produce an ad in which rapist Mike Tyson spewed fatphobic dreck for Secretary Bear Carcass

I'm hardly the first person to note this, but it's enormously instructive that our President and his followers saw the message "THE ONLY THING MORE POWERFUL THAN HATE IS LOVE" and understood it, correctly, as an attack on them

For more singing toilets tune into the Turning Point USA halftime show

“The first out LGBTQ woman to represent USA in Olympic figure skating reached the top of the podium in her Olympic debut Sunday … It was the second Olympic gold claimed by Team LGBTQ Sunday following Breezy Johnson’s win in women’s downhill skiing.”

No Kings includes Draft Kings

Green Day: “don’t wanna be an American Idiot” Page Six:

judge a quarterback by whether or not he defrauds millions of dollars from poor people

There any good Superb Owl parties going on today?

The March for Life is going to end up killing *actual babies* with measles in the name of non-existent, hypothetical babies. which is the most perfect distillation of the American MAGA worldview that I think I’ve ever seen.

We’ve got GREAT men here, but it’s overwhelmingly women caring for our community. On top of jobs & parenting. I have hemorrhaged time & money on food, rental assistance, toys & books, grocery runs, & GoFundMe’s. And I’m not doing nearly as much as other women. www.glamour.com/story/the-wo...

At *the very least* RFK Jr. should be tried for manslaughter. At the *VERY* very least he shouldn't be running the goddamned US health service.

Fresh haircut. T-shirt says “Trans Rights.”

People in my notifs keep asking how Trump will benefit from TrumpRx dot gov, looking for a financial angle. I think that undervalues Trump's desire to 1) plaster his name on everything 2) replace "Obamacare" with "Trump" — he clearly despises any Obama achievement bc of racial animus

I think I’m done with Apple Maps. What do you mean a “SE” address is on the west side of the river. That’s not how Portland works. JFC.

GM: Charisma check. Mamdani: [rolls natural 20] GM: that’s a d6 how did you Mamdani: [direct to camera] Did you know you can check out board games at your local public library? 😊
