Never let a single goddamned person on the Right ever claim again that they’re the party of law and order without laughing in their lying face.

oh no BBC baby what is you doin

Samuel Alito flew two flags used by insurrectionists. Clarence Thomas' wife plotted to overturn the 2020 election. Both justices refused to recuse themselves from SCOTUS cases related to the January 6th plot. It's a stain on our nation that this has effectively been forgotten.

every day that goes by that Gr*k isn’t shut down by its stupid dumb fuck owner is one more Tesla you are legally allowed to light on fire

Elon Musk is producing CSAM the right way. by Ezra Klein

Every piece of reporting I've seen on this is drastically understating the scale. These are from Grok's replies within a single minute. Time-to-reply is degrading because it has such a backlog of NCII/CSAM requests to fulfill. Conservatively I estimate it is producing more than 5000 of these per day

There we go. That there’s a headline.

Tesla made suppliers for the Cybertruck tool up for 125k units/year, once again proving that you should never do business with Tesla

this is small comfort given he has state power and i don’t but i am struck by what an obviously weak and fragile man miller is. a blubbering piss baby whose entire affect and personality is an attempt to make up for his profound feelings of inadequacy

This is really bad; Grok is now going into is third day of regularly producing nonconsensual deepfake pornography and nobody is doing anything about it. The "Mechahitler" and "white genocide" episodes were stopped much more quickly. I suppose this tells us all about relative priorities.

FLASHBACK: “You will not see Republicans bailing out those who were arrested…. Americans do not need lectures from hypocrites in hair and makeup…” Fascinating to revisit Gutfeld’s epic hypocrisy from January 7th, now that Trump has pardoned them all. 😕🇺🇸🤷🏼

Happy “OUR Criminals Are Heroes” Day

im genuinely curious if this resonates with voters. this naked appeal to imperialism from a shrieking, shrill man

Personally I'm counting on the Great Pumpkin to fix this

Thinking idly about how there was a time in the past where the Grok CSAM scandal would lead to a huge exodus off X to Bluesky and elsewhere but how now everyone who cared about such things has already left

Nick Fuentes on his show the day after Christmas credited social media platforms & their supposed policy reversals as "the number one thing" for his alleged recent rise in popularity, mentioning platforms like Instagram & YouTube specifically. www.mediamatters.org/nick-fuentes...

Oh look it's Cassidy whining again about the consequences of his own actions in confirming RFK Jr. and convincing others to do so. Sir, you are a United States Senator. The fact that you continue say much yet do nothing in the wake of RFK Jr.'s destruction of public tells us all we need to know.

It’s time for today’s game of “is this appalling thing the President just said even true or is it just a neuron misfire or a manifestation of his pathological need just to say whatever shit he thinks will make him look cool and tough”

It's Their Time

I also enjoy that they renamed Remote Desktop to Windows App and the Windows App is available in the App Store for Mac where the tab title becomes "Windows App App - App Store" apps.apple.com/us/app/windo...

Microsoft is so fucking stupid. Microsoft renamed Microsoft Office to Microsoft 365 Copilot App I'm not joking

Elon Musk chatbot repeatedly making CSAM on demand should be one of the single biggest stories right now and it's effectively a collective shrug instead

Gotta say, Schumer is, himself, a fucking distraction. Time to get someone in there who can actually do the job of leading an opposition party.

oh shit tomorrow is circle back day already

For all that the media has spent years freaking out about what social media does to our brains, I don’t understand why there appears to be little effort to grapple with the fact that these chatbots are, for some not insignificant portion of the population, literally psychosis machines

Some people are responding to criticisms of this as if people were saying “impeachment is obviously the right strategy.” No. The point is that “impeachment isn’t the right strategy because the GOP may start to be responsible” is an unfathomably stupid and insulting lie.

what the fuck folks

Elon Musk's entire deal is promising that technology can fulfill all your deepest and least-examined dreams, and then being like "whoah, sorry, this one is on you"

Watch this. Watch again. "This incredible thing last night... We have to do it again [in other countries]. We can do it again, too. Nobody can stop us."

Buddy, hope left the building, went to lunch, had 4 margaritas and a bloody mary, got into a fight with the server, was tossed through a window, severed an artery, had its leg amputated, spent three nights in ICU, got divorced, defaulted on the mortgage, and is living in a van down by the river

A side story is there’s a ton of insider trading on these prediction markets. New accounts making hundreds of thousands on their first and only trade, that maduro would be ousted. Seems like insider trading is legal if not encouraged on these platforms

people offended by $600 shoes are going to be in for a surprise when trump eventually reshores US manufacturing

As someone who did pool reports in normal times, this is, uh, highly unusual and insane.

tbf i would also try to find ways to waste comical amounts of larry ellison's money if i worked for cbs

Saying ”Grok apologized” is like If I type “YOU’RE A BITCH” into Speak-And-Spell and tell you “Speak-An-Spell says you’re a bitch”

Corrupt tech billionaires are buying power to tilt the world in their favor. Even the co-founder of Y Combinator is saying it. ⬇️ The radical death cult rising from Silicon Valley venture capital is metastasizing rapidly. It's an existential threat to democracy and humanity.

I really think this is the most important basic journalistic error we need to stamp out right now. If you know why Grok can’t comment on anything and also know any journalists, please check in with them and help them understand it too.

I wrote about Grok's CSAM problem and how journalists keep fumbling the story www.readtpa.com/p/grok-cant-...

Media is starting to report the Grok child porn story but way too many are centering the bot's "apologies" and "admissions" without explaining that these are being generated in response to user requests and are not in anyway authentic or meaningful.

This is a thread of major media outlets falsely anthropomorphising the "Grok" chatbot program and in doing so, actively and directly removing responsibility and accountability from individual people working at X who created a child pornography generator (Elon Musk, Nikita Bier etc) #1: Reuters

Musk predicted Tesla would sell 200K Cyber trucks in a year, and last quarter they sold 11,642 Cybertruck/Model S Sedans/Model X SUVs *combined*. The technical economics term for this is "hilarious."

What does it mean when your doctors keep insisting you redo the cognitive exam

Mamdani has only been Mayor for a day & criminals are already fleeing New York

it’s stupid to not use ai just because it can induce psychosis and generate child porn. it’s like saying you’re hungry when there’s a hot dog on the ground outside that induces psychosis and generates child porn

If you are a resident of California, the state now has a portal where you can demand deletion of your personal data from 500+ registered data brokers with a single request form, for free. consumer.drop.privacy.ca.gov

Gosh. If only some widely read political media properties had been willing to call out Trump's disavowals as nonsense. If only.

every opposition politician needs to take notes and run on undoing the bullshit on day 1

Mayor Mamdani has nullified every executive order issued by Eric Adams after he struck his corrupt bargain with Trump to secure dismissal of the indictment against him.
