Not to mention Cole admits she still suffers from gender dysphoria. Choosing not to treat your own headaches doesn't mean you get to ban Tylenol.

I never understood this. They are your child. It was your decision to bring them into this world. How can you not accept them?

My professional timeline right now is made up of four distinct silos wrt the principal global threat/challenge we face, in roughly this order: 1. AI 2. Russia 3. China 4. Climate I'd reverse the order and eliminate the silos. But most notably, Trump II has no plan for dealing with any of them.

*facepalm* Pam Bondi has asked Do you have a law degree, Senator Schiff? He does. Harvard Law School cum laude in 1985.

The New York Times managed to hit a new low "Fire Consumes the Home of a South Carolina State Judge" which is really something for them. "Mistakes were made", eh?

the hardest part of living in Portland is having your house burn down every single night and then having to rebuild it during the day. the amount of money i spend just in drywall is insane.

OpenAI has now promised $1T in purchases in deals with AMD, Nvidia, and Oracle. OpenAI has raised $57.9B so far. OpenAI is neither profitable nor does it have any route to be profitable.

all these trans people are interfering with the site's original goal: synergizing ai and the blockchain by optimizing decentralized technologies to disrupt the social media microblogosphere 3.0

And I, for one, welcome our new insect overlords thoughtleaders. I'd like to remind them as a trusted TV personality, I can be helpful in rounding up others to toil in their underground sugar caves, reading on Adderall non-linear their metareviews from the middle letter jumping to the end letter.

See it's this amazing technical miracle for users and now we just have to get rid of the users to really let it shine

Please join me in congratulating Woman on her appointment

A quick note about money and comedy and power. www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/st...

We are thrilled to announce that our NEW Large Language Model will be released on 11.18.25.

It's quite astonishing we got here. Wikipedia is a cesspit of misinformation -- not in small part caused by the "There is no credential" policy which ensures real experts say away as they do not want to argu with mouthbreathing neckbeards -- and yet by now somehow it's the best.

AT Proto has become a sort of ideological vaporware; a way for Jay Graber et al to run a social media platform while claiming they don't run a social media platform. This is just another iteration of the Silicon Valley monoproduct: power without accountability. azhdarchid.com/delusions-of...

In memoriam. And in hope.

you say "i asked chatgpt" i hear "i asked [an improv comedy group]" an improv group wrote this report instead of a therapist i use an improv comedy group

tired: it's always DNS inspired: ICANN feel it coming in the air tonight

OpenAI employees are very excited about how well their new AI tool can create fake videos of people doing crimes and have definitely thought through all the implications of this

“I’m resigning from my position as Democratic leader and retiring from the Senate.”

If "AI" was as valuable as they say it is, they wouldn't be selling it to you. They'd be using it themselves in secret to make the next Minecraft, the next Avatar, the next Hello Kitty and then they'd sell that to you. They're trying to sell you a sick goose, while pretending it lays golden eggs.

This game US Congress plays is beyond my understanding. If you don't have a budget, you didn't do your job. You are fired and a new election is called. Done!

I know this sounds ridiculous but we used to ask other humans to help with trip planning: Flyertalk dates from 1998, Reddit r/travel not sure when but it was there in 2009 January. Travel StackExchange 2011 or earlier. Tools: ExpertFlyer is from 2005. ITA Matrix is at least that old.

If the govt shuts down, I could lose work. If it stays open at the cost of gender-affirming care, I could lose my child. I can replace lost income. I can't replace my daughter. @gallego.senate.gov @captmarkkelly.bsky.social, don't sacrifice trans people on the altar of political convenience.

Hypothetical: Singapore blows up a small vessel heading towards them. They claim they were smuggling drugs which carries the death penalty there. Let's suppose there were US citizens abroad. What do you think the answer from the US would be.

I don't think we'll ever get another sentence which sums up everything the New York Times embodies quite like "Some legal experts have called it a crime to summarily kill civilians".

Yes, it is important not to place too much faith in court cases & elections, many doomed to fail by partisan judges & gerrymandering But also, fascism abhors delay. Theater of illiberal democracy takes time. Yarvin keeps saying, "It's not moving fast enough" He may be right. Stall. Slack. Loaf.

To the 300 Northwestern students refusing to watch US-Israeli propaganda: I applaud your integrity & critical analysis. I may not be able to teach & you may not be able to learn on campus. But we WILL teach & learn throughout the world to make a better future 👊🏾 www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

I have been haunted by this statement all day www.kgw.com/article/news...

I mean yes this is funny, but the fact that these unconstitutional stormtroopers are so directionless that they literally stand around waiting for random nonwhite delivery guys to bike past them is just pathetic. No mandate, no mission, no clue. Just racism.

These justices weren’t chosen for legal brilliance, they were groomed by the Federalist Society to carry out a political project: roll back civil rights, workers’ protections, and the gains of the 20th century.👇

OK so what happens if someone renames their tanning salon to Medbeds, makes no claim whatsoever otherwise about their beds and charges exorbitant prices.

So the Miller/Vance plan is that if the QAnon types believe in secret healing alien magic “medbeds (which the democrats don’t want you to have)” they will be more likely to sign up as holy warriors for the cult of Trump?

So the alarming part about this isn't publicizing medbeds, which I doubt Trump personally even knows about. The bad part is he doesn't want — or even need — to adhere to reality anymore. He needs his base ready to go to war for him, maybe literally. He is in the endtimes prophecy business now.

Don’t worry about how weird it is that a widow is smiling ear to ear and laughing like she’s having the time of her life 2 weeks after her husband bled out on live cam. You can’t spell Erika Kirk without THREE DAMN Ks.

Who could possibly care that much? Well, here’s your answer… “About 1,000 posts in that first 24-hour period called on people to stop eating at Cracker Barrel, and 49% of those posts got flagged as likely coming from bots.”

Def antifa. You can tell by the mask. #warravagedportland

In #WarRavagedPortland They’re eating the doughnuts, Voodoo doll doughnuts. Maple bacon ones too. Even some with candy eyes. Savage #Voices4Victory #ProudBlue

I was up there last week, took the last chopper out and barely made it out alive. You can practically smell the napalm in this photo #warravagedportland

This is going to kill people. And to be honest I think that’s part of the point.

This is the reason why us Finns always kept the military conscription and integrate Civil Defence in all planning. We know from history what the Russians are like. They do not fight like modern armies, or respect any international rules.

People use fascism loosely to speak of that which they dislike, but the term has a meaning. Most reductively: cult of personality; nationalism; eroticized violence, internal enemies, purity myths, politicized gender.

I find this compelling: “They say, you can’t put that in your platform, they’re gonna come after you. Well, guess what? They’re already coming after us.”

Shout out to Chloe who also took part in stopping the data center. The smile, it rises! bsky.app/profile/wat3...

I know antifa isn't a real organization because I don't get 40 texts a week from them asking for donations.

ICE agents held a 5-year-old autistic girl outside her Massachusetts home to pressure her father to surrender to authorities last week, according to the girl's family

The actual Rapture that’s happening in our society

Much as computer security won't improve until C level execs get prison sentences for breaches attorneys won't stop until they get disbarred for this shit.
