This is a good direction.

Hey. Elected Dems. FINISH HIM. Now is your chance. But it has to be right now.

Dang. I knew him a bit years and years ago. Absolute legend, for real.

Welcome the statements from R's who seem to be turning against ICE actions. They don't need to have fully change their minds for this to matter. Politics can't count on politicians doing the right thing--the political incentives have to point that way. And this shift shows the incentives are moving.

one year return $GM +50% $TSLA +10% ok zoom to 5 years $GM +71% $TSLA +51% just sayin

The Washington Post is apparently about to make huge cuts to its newsroom. Subscribers have abandoned it in droves. I look at that and wonder why people still think TSLA will sell zillions of its stormtrooper bots. There's no audience for this shit.

if bovino is out and conservatives are turning on noem then there is a real opportunity to demand that miller resign too.

This. Don't stop here. The tide is just slightly starting to turn. Gotta keep going until they're utterly defeated -- and unable to ever try this shit again.

I think I see an EV (or more likely EREV) pickup. What do you see?

Until Stephen Miller goes, it’s all just shuffling the deck chairs.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

From this moment forward (and before, but clearly now): -If you work for ICE. -If you vote for money for ICE. You are complicit. This is the gestapo. You're on the wrong side. You can't pretend not to know.

That writer thing where I'm staring at my hands on the keyboard saying, "C'mon, make words come out." Task initiation struggles are a thing, y'all.

Good take by tech guru Robert Graham on the Full Self Motorcade clown show.

“.. Here’s the reality: Tesla didn’t remove the safety monitor. It simply moved them from inside the Robotaxi to a chase car following closely behind.” 🤡 @electrek.co #$TSLA x.com/electrekco/s...

Larry Fink just had to "please clap" the crowd because they didn't celebrate Elon Musk enough at Davos

For the record, if anyone cares... I love F1 (the sport). F1 (the movie) was a tiresome Brad Pitt schlockfest with some great racing scenes.

Mmm-hmm. And remember that this is old tech that's not difficult for developed nations. How long would it take (for instance) Japan to have nuclear weapons once a decision is made and funds allocated? A few weeks?

If this is actually true, I assume it's because the Pentagon told him "LOL nope".

This is terrific. From Minnesota. (Source in comments below that skeet.)

We have a finite amount of time to spend thinking while on this earth and I am very resentful of how much of it has been monopolized by the whims of a demented old real estate scumbag

The UK and Europe and Canada and etc are not our friends anymore, because of what the US government is doing. It's a hard thing to accept. I'm struggling mightily with it. But here we are. Alone. Until we fix it, and then we'll see.

Trump is now way too far over his ski’s and isolated. The entire Greenland bluff should be called by Europe. He will be forced to back down. Conversely, failure to do so will be disastrous and lead to more demands and blackmail. It’s time to punch the weak bully in the fucking face.

“It is midnight within the moral order … The most inspiring word … is that no midnight long remains. “Our eternal message of hope is that dawn will come.”

I have no idea if it'll be quick, but it definitely looks cool.

Yes. Even in my little city, one can hear four or five languages on a long walk. It's excellent -- and this is a very, very American city.

When this breaks it almost surely won't go gently...

Just testing a cashtag. #$TSLAQ

I would never suggest that anyone do anything unlawful - certainly not right here, in front of God and everybody. So remember the first rules of firearm and internet safety: Treat every gun like it’s loaded… and every poster who calls for crime a cop.

Truth here.

The UAW will ensure that our member receives the full protection of all negotiated contract language safeguarding his job and his rights as a union member. Workers should never be subjected to vulgar language or behavior by anyone—including the President of the United States.

Boom.

Coddling billionaires is not going to be a winning national strategy, @gavinnewsom.bsky.social.

QOTD: What car do you want most, but know would be an absolutely miserable experience to own?

If you see this, post an Archer.

Narrator: Joe Kernan certainly can pick his facts as long as ratings stay strong.

If I was advising the EU—and I 100% should be—my advice is that you prepare three sets of sanction packages: 1. Deliberate targeting of personal/corporate assets of Trump, Musk, Andressen, Sacks, etc like they’re Russian oligarchs by doing stuff like seizing Gigafactory Berlin. This gets used first.

Please note this is *not* the same Roger Williams who founded Rhode Island in 1636 and is largely credited with being the father of the separation between church and state. Completely different Rogers.

I find myself blocking people #onhere in lieu of saying "have your little tantrum somewhere else, please." Lots of tantrums lately. It's a tense time.

I think Checo Perez was put in an impossible situation at Red Bull, and I think it'll be fun to see what he can do with Cadillac.

One thing every democratic nation should be doing right now: Blocking Twitter on a national level.

Which country will be the first to charge Elon Musk with crimes over his CSAM machine? My guess is none, because the whole developed world ex-China is afraid of Donald Trump. But someone should.

You didn't create “AI” art. You commissioned it. You told the "artist" (actually a contractor who keeps a bunch of unpaid artists in a data warehouse) what you wanted and had them make changes until it was acceptable. You're a Medici, not a Michelangelo.

I don't know if this is true. Take with many grains of salt. But it would be in keeping with things. bsky.app/profile/your...
