So, wait. Did we just colonize Venezuela?

Also, when reporters start talking about the chatbots this way, it is imperative to remind them they are basically asking a toaster for comment. They should be a lot more embarrassed about this than they currently are. “Grok told CNN…” no it didn’t. You typed stuff into an unreliable calculator.

Please remember that these "A.i." products are controlled by fascist, eugenicist billionaires. Don't give them your information. Don't give them your thoughts. Don't give them any goddamn thing.

Exactly. How can a bot "apologize"? They pretending like it's a human, or something human-like, and not in reality a computer program that it's humans are entirely in control of and literally programming it to do *all* of the things it is doing.

They gentrified the tinfoil hat

This year appears to be ending in the same vein as it started: Anger. The new neighbors on the hill shooting 30 minutes of fireworks over my horse paddock and sending the 31 year old horse through the fence tonight. They will be getting the vet bill, I guarantee it.

Pam Bondi, you can fuck off. I have a First Amendment right to film ICE. In fact, we’ve built an app for immigrants to lawfully fight back against ICE. We’re raising $ to get the “know your rights” app to those who most need it. Hey Pam, make a contribution. Here’s the GoFundMe link: PAXIS.app.

So apparently there are many Epstein files on the DOJ website where you can highlight the redacted text, copy it, and paste it onto another document to read the redactions

Someday he will be gone. But we will never forgive or forget the people who supported him.

Michael C. Rockefeller got shipwrecked in 1963, washed up on an island, and was promptly eaten by cannibals.

I've been through the desert on a

Wait! You can mute the sound?!?

Alaska vowed to resolve the murders of Indigenous people. But when one nonprofit asked state law enforcement officials for a fundamental piece of data — a list of Indigenous murders they’d investigated — the state said no. With @adn.com

Yes, that is apparently correct 👇👇👇

A lot of disinformation is circulating about what Senators/Representatives Slotkin, Kelly, Crow, Deluzio, Goodlander, and Houlahan actually said. Here is the transcript. It contains no accusation that the President issued unlawful orders, no call to disobey lawful orders, and no advocacy of mutiny.

We've now at the part of the decline of our Democratic experiment where lawmakers of a co-equal branch of government have to remind our military not to follow illegal orders from another branch of our gov, and the President declaring that reminder "treason" punishable by death.

More of this. More men standing up to understand what most women experience at some point.

I've had a missile blow up next to my airplane, been shot at dozens of times by anti-aircraft fire, and launched into orbit — all for my country. I never thought I'd see a President call for my execution. Trump doesn’t understand the Constitution, and we're all less safe for it.

Apparently swastikas are totally cool now because we don't want to offend the Nazi wing of the Republican party.

Have to appreciate how fitting it is that Democrats' warning about Trump abusing his position to command the military to take illegal action prompted him to abuse his position by demanding that they be tried for capital crimes.

This mural has gone up in Kingston, ostensibly for Christmas but AI has ensured it's actually to celebrate the return of our dark lord Cthulhu

Reproductive rights was one of the Biden Administration’s signature policies. And Roe v Wade had been law for almost 50 years. The Supreme Court “interfered” with it.

In Bovino's upside down world, there is no difference between an armed gang member preying on others in his community and a guy working 12 hours a day washing cars, flipping burgers, or installing sheetrock to feed his family — and he wants you to hate and fear both men equally.

Best case: The President of the United States knew about a pedophilia ring and did nothing to stop it. Medium case: He also used his office to protect the perpetrators. Worst case: Because he was one of the perpetrators.

Hey so “underage girls” are…children. The word you’re looking for is children. They’re not like, women-in-waiting or women-lite or whatever. They’re children. I think some of you are very uncomfortable with what that means for you but it is still true.

Really looking forward to the Speaker of the House claiming to be unaware of the election results.

Drinking tequila, watching MSNBC, and refreshing Bluesky obsessively to get tonight’s election results. We need a referendum on the evil Republicans, and we are getting it! #bluewave

Obama: It is not as if we didn't see some of this coming. I will admit it is worse than even I expected, but I did warn you all. I did. You can run the tape.

SOME FRIENDLY ADVICE: Limit the amount of time and energy you spend countering MAGA claims with facts. If facts mattered to them, they wouldn't be MAGA.

Sorry I refuse to entertain the complete non-existent world where white people don’t know that countless cultures, including some of their own but certainly diasporic racialized ones, call their mom’s cousin’s friend’s sister they grew up with “cousin” and call close women elders “aunt/auntie”

the symbolism of “Trump destroying the White House for a overpriced luxury vanity project, during a government shut down, days after a historically-large mass demonstration against his regime called “No Kings”’ would be rightly viewed as laying it on a little thick if it was in a work of fiction

THIS IS EVIL!!! I am literally shaking right now.

This is what democracy looks like. #NoKings

Wait, so we *have* to submit to their *King* in order to have our paychecks? Thanks for really clarifying what we are fighting against. #NoKings #NoTrump

A friend of several yrs accused me of something I didn't do and cut off contact mnths ago. I moved on. Then they reached out last week with something they wanted. I, trying to salvage the friendship, got it for them and...ghosted me again...writing days later to order me to not talk about them. WTF?

Trump took office with a Israel-Hamas ceasefire in place, then announced a vision for Gaza as a US-owned resort, with most Palestinians living there gone. Israel restarted military ops in March and imposed famine. Thousands of dead Palestinians later, the Trump admin helped broker another ceasefire.

I guess he'll do the same thing with the Doug Wilson led Christian Nationalists aggressively trying to take over the town and government of Moscow, Idaho and surrounding communities? Oh wait, never mind, the DOJ is actually *suing* one of those towns for trying to keep the Christchurch plague out.

This. And everyone around him appears to also dare to be sitting. Why single him out, I wonder?

The never ending, most stupid debate of our time will be over who was actually President on January 6, 2021.

No one signs up for the National Guard thinking, “One day, I’ll invade Oregon.”

It’s important to flood social media and news channels with news about how ICE lies, so that potential jurors see it.

NEW: breach of Discord age verification data. Including some users passports & DLs Age verification is a badly implemented data grab wrapped in a moral panic. Mark my words, as age verification mandates expand, we'll end up more surveilled and less secure. 1/

I want to frame this and hang it on my wall.
