Left wing in-fighting is going to continue dragging them into a death spiral. It is painfully obvious to those whose priority is to displace the fascists in power, that all this pretense of attacking allies is just kissing Trump's ass and calling it the moral high ground.

Gotta say, as a survivor, I’m not super loving this thing where the Department of Justice is running a cover-up of evidence the President sexually abused minors.

Definitely miss that level of practical governance.

Reminisciing about when good triumphs, wondering why it was not enough...

I wrote this brief talk on why “augmenting diversity” with LLMs is empirically unsubstantiable, conceptually flawed, and epistemically harmful and a nice surprise to see the organisers have made it public synthetic-data-workshop.github.io/papers/13.pdf

PenguinRandomHouse are running a good COUNT ZERO deal with BookBub, US ebook price reduced to $1.99 from December 15 to December 20!

Google decided to load their Gemini AI onto my old Nest Hub, which I use primarily to control light fixtures. It cannot be removed. All clearance of data is manual, and only after the AI has built a profile of everything it hears. It listens, always. I unplugged it. Forever.

The rapid response whataboutism memes to indirectly promote MAGA seem to point to a fundamental inability to defend a point, or even to be able to stay on point of a discussion... All while pushing the MAGA narratives. MAGA's best political tactic is promoting infighting on the Left.

Tell us you support MAGA without actually saying you support MAGA...

Sweetie Think you're welcome? Think again as Dual citizenship and Birthright Citizenship are on Trump's chopping block #ElbowsUp All belong to "Caesar" and Republicans expect you to bend the knee and swear fealty to the "Emperor"👀🙄🚩🚩🚩 @guardtheleaf.bsky.social youtu.be/dVzI7jAMzB0?...

When I first worked as an #Autistic in Corporate America, I'd come home, take off the mask, then stare at it looking for cracks and signs of wear. Decades later, I now come home & wait for the mask to fall off on its own, so it stares up from the floor, looking at my cracks and signs of wear.

-4°F can also be expressed as minus 4 F-ing degrees!

#30YearsOfBlue The idea we have to vote solid blue for 30 years, at every election, at every level, just to undo the harm Trump has created and prevent recurrence, knowing his party, supporters, and donors could have reigned him in, but chose not to. We can never again trust them with ANY power.

And the American Republican donors have been feeding cash to the Canadian Conservatives at least as far back as Harper, through "conservative think tanks" like the Fraser Institute. Macleans covered that while Harper was in office.

Article III, Section 3, Clause 1 Treason against the United States, shall consist only in 1. Levying War against them (Sending troops against our citizens) 2. Or in adhering to their Enemies (Backing Putin against allies), 3. Giving them Aid and Comfort (Selling F35s to the Saudis) #ArrestTrump

Just asking, theoretically, but, is there a tariff on Guillotines, and does France still make them, or would we need to get used ones?

Moral of the story… Insurance companies are evil‼️

So when Thundarr kept talking about "Demon dogs" was he referring to some distorted reference for Inuyasha?

BREAKING: MAMDANI HAS WON according to Decision Desk

I am very disappointed that some GOP candidate in this blue state are running unopposed, and worse, some are on both the Republican and the Democrat line for the same position. NY Dems do not support local elections very well.

@punkeydoodles8.bsky.social I felt this one: www.youtube.com/shorts/JGXH1...

How many times have his accusations proved to be foreshadowed confessions? #SNAP #Shutdown #Trump #GOP

Early this morning, got a text message saying I had Opted into text alerts from the local #GOP even though I hadn't. Immediately opted out. Got an alert from them not 20 minutes later, even though I never opted in and after I opted out. Does the entire GOP lack any understanding of consent?

Thought this deserved some attention. Playable Ms PacMan, Halloween edition, by Google searchplayground.google/pacman/hallo...

So is the new ball room just to keep all the GOP balls they obviously lost to him?

Grand Central Station, rush hour, 5 years ago today. Before the pandemic, you could not have seen the floor for the number of people in motion from this vantage point. Manhattan felt like a ghost town, and the Feds cut support. #TrumpDidThat

As best I can tell, entering my 7th decade, I have only felt valued when they find a way to monetize my hyperfocus. Still, I have hope.

“One mark of a great soldier is that he fights on his own terms or fights not at all.” ~ Sun Tzu Well played, #ResistanceFrog, well played.

"Bad people may eventually be punished for their evils, but good people are being punished until those evils are stopped."

Noticing a lot of Trump apologist accounts, trying to sound reasonable, but undermining any posted facts or concerns about Trump and his administration. These exist to deflate the outrage and bring discussions to a halt. Watch for them.

I think I know why early Trump supporters still feel obligated to defend him from insults. Basically, they ARE the horse he rode in on, so...

"When plunder becomes a way of life for a group of men in a society, over the course of time they create for themselves a legal system that authorizes it and a moral code that glorifies it." ~ Frédéric Bastiat, 1848

Seaside Heights, NJ. Jet Star Roller Coaster collapsed due to sea level rise. That was almost 10 years ago. The GOP was already ignoring the facts of climate change, by that point. Clearly that has spread to pretty much all other aspects of science.

"Fascism should rightly be called Corporatism, as it is the merger of corporate and government power." ~Benito Mussolini
