actually -- and i forgot this -- the PUMAs pioneered the "listen 👏 to 👏 black👏 women👏 and👏 vote👏 for👏 a 👏 white👏 person" rhetoric we saw when KHive got mad that Harris was being tapped to run for President

the political faction which came to be associated with Kamala Harris -- racist antiracist turbocentrists -- has, as far as I can tell, nothing to do with her actual politics and seems like electoral poison for anyone else it attaches to

i got teargassed by NIST reference chemical irritant

Sullivan wasn’t a leftist! He was a right-winger - the original publisher of the Bell Curve in TNR - who went extremely right over Iraq and called for people to be imprisoned for opposing the war, and then had a repentance arc and went nominally liberal for a while before returning to form.

Thinkin about this incredible interaction

It ain't the church grandmas and their knitting circles reinventing Leninism from first principles whose attitudes toward The Reckoning I find suspect, and the idea that Evelyn Normielib and Numbers Fuckstein will need a vanguard to threaten violence on their behalf is increasingly laughable

there are still not.

I believe the debate about whether Bezos is "obligated to fund $100m+ annual losses" misses the point. He intentionally expanded those losses by millions of dollars for basic corruption reasons, so that the Trump administration would be nicer to Amazon and Blue Origin slate.com/business/202...

okay I am going to stop clowning on Drake

ken is right on the model rules of professional conduct, but sometimes the rules of professional conduct will tell you to do something which more conventional morality won't let you do. if people's lives depend on it, sometimes the right thing to do is to burn your bar card.

as far as i can tell the origin of the minnesota ICE watchers' tactics is basically the radicalization of pretty normal immigration nonprofit legal observers?

I will be individually bugging people BUT! if you want to get in on the ground floor of a democratic socialist campaign to upend the New Jersey machine, bring millions in corrupted dollars back home to the people, and be gay as hell while doing it, sign up here: secure.actblue.com/donate/david...

It legit amazes me that Microsoft got that deal--an AMAZING hedge against a potential AI bubble by letting them salvage the wreckage of OpenAI to their total satisfaction--and then overleveraged itself on that same AI bubble to the point of squandering that amazing hedge its lawyers had gotten it.

you can literally edit your funeral instructions to say whatever you want. for instance you can make them play We Are Charlie Kirk at your funeral

every city in a swing state (other than phoenix) is so deep blue that it would be virtually impossible to change a result just by intervening there

“Holy shit, I’m actually the source of sovereign authority for the most dominant power in the history of the world” is something that every voter should wrap their heads around. This reaction is perfect.

what I take from this is that they had to ask chatgpt to write their madposts and I think that is genuinely funny

yoshi is a horse

I really do like Whiplash. 'Abuse may kill a lot of people, but it also helps a lot of people play more technically proficient jazz, so, it;s impossible to say if its bad or not' is an amazing thesis for a film to have

the other question is "when do they go?" do they just ignore the early vote? because if they don't ignore the early vote they're going to get enjoined out and they'll drive turnout. if they do ignore the early vote there's not going to be much of an impact.

there is a kind of person that would dunk on this, but this sort of reflection over a seemingly tiny thing is exactly the sort of civic virtue that we need to be encouraging more of

this is why making every ICE and CBP guy's job an endless series of humiliations is critical. also if they don't meet their quota they don't get their bonus.

someone needs to make this their pfp

i think this actually meets all the criteria. it's unethical, derivative, appears to have very little human influence, steals IP, and gets stuck in my head once every three days. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nm9c...

this is one of the funniest things i have ever encountered www.youtube.com/watch?v=FLmt...

i'm curious: what's your "favorite" AI slop, as in: not necessarily the thing which has the most merit, but the thing which has stuck in your head the most. i figure most people won't want to answer out loud, but DM it to me if you have one.

Gonna ruin my mentions before sitting down to dinner and just say, Mamdani endorsing Hochul just makes good political sense. She's been backing him in all kinds of ways, almost none of his more ambitious agenda is can accomplished without the state government's assistance.

It's striking to me that the same dude was today arguing that ICE has successfully "pacified" resistance. Put those two things together and you have a picture of a guy who thoughtlessly worships the power of bullying.

Trump's constant degradation of female reporters is unsurprising but the press corps' collective decision to treat it as background noise is actually kind of sickening

Bro they're actually gonna get Maduro to say he helped rig the 2020 election in exchange for dropping the charges aren't they?

it does seem that it is extremely straightforward that none of the January 6th pardons are constitutional

Reasonable guesses: Tulsi Gabbard, third country immigration detention, some damn fool thing in Alberta

leaking my soul doc

Read this starting from page 11. It's not just about her mental state (she clearly was having a mental breakdown). She actually walks through the timeline of when she started at the job (Jan 5) and then from when she started working on the case, the specific events and what time each day etc

I have never seen anything like it. I don't know what's actually going on, but several attorneys reached out to me this morning and said all of their Somali clients were also transferred to the same judge and now have court on the same date in March. And I don't know for sure why. But it's chilling

I'm not sure what to make of it, but every Somali I represent in immigration court currently (8 of them) have today had their hearings cancelled and their judges reassigned. They're now all assigned to a video judge from Louisiana and scheduled for court hearing in one month. 🧵

when we say it is impossible to steal the upcoming election, it is as much of a normative statement as a descriptive one. they will, of course, declare victory and try to force the issue. they lost in 2020 when trying this and ought to lose now in the same way.

have you considered that you're irredeemably epstein coded for saying that (said while advancing linguistic theories that most resemble noam chomsky)

have you considered that when you said X, you were actually saying Y, which is a horrible thing to say?
