I put in eight years at Twitter and did what I could. But it became clear that the new algorithm throttled what reach I once had. Realized staying there was just giving cover to a right-wing project. So I left. If you think "we" need to stay there or "we" can make a difference, you're delusional.

Repost with the Russian agent that spies on your posts.

Brilliant McSweeney's commentary on billionaires funding an "intellectually level playing field" where all viewpoints are accepted equally at universities. www.mcsweeneys.net/articles/wer...

I'm not anti-AI, I'm anti-IAI (Inevitable AI). TBH I'm anti forcing ANYTHING on me! I'm also anti-AII (AI Ignorance). If you don't know what AI code, functionality and limitations actually are, don't ridicule those of us who do. Proselytizing a shadowy technology you know nothing about is obnoxious.

Brilliant, #StephenColbert is far from silenced by those who would limit his influence! I cannot wait to see all of the places that he will pop up and share the joy machine's creations. #WhereInTheWorldIsStephen ? Go, Stephen, GO!

I think the part in the subheadline here is probably more important than what got put in the headline, tbh

Ask me about how Amazon destroyed a friend's company by allowing counterfeiters to sell their products no matter how many times our friend told Amazon the products were counterfeited. Go ahead. They DESTROYED his business.

In this Ohio diner, a $1.7 billion slush fund is what Ryan Day needs to compete in the transfer portal. But they do know this: Democrats should have never let Trump’s IRS leak Trump’s tax returns while Trump was president.

It’s weird how booing AI has completely broken some commencement speakers. They’ve gone from, “You can do anything if you put your mind to it” to “Shut up and eat shit, fuckers. Being here is supposed to make ME feel good, not you.”

tbf, Republicans are trying to keep the Epstein Files underrated.

He is almost over-qualified for this regime of thugs.

Cause and effect! #WeThePeople #ICEOut

1,000 World Cup tickets. $50 each. All for New Yorkers. We fought hard to make the people’s game available to the people — and won. Let the summer of soccer begin.

Nothing to see here folks..... www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

One thing that gets missed in President Trump's discussion of "weaponization" and his tax returns: The person who leaked Trump's tax returns did so when Trump was president and in charge of the IRS. He was indicted and sent to prison for that during the Biden administration.

It feels like a tell for how theatrical and hollow conflict in business and politics in the U.S. has become. They are used to fights with people who go out to dinner with them afterward, and they do not understand what it means to make enemies.

Nope! We dropped them both! Buy local, like ReachAndTeach.com

The IRS leak that was the subject of Trump’s suit occurred in 2018-2020, when he was president. So, in effect, he was suing over what his own IRS did. Then he dropped the suit after he got his own Justice Department to give him a $1.8B slush fund to reward his thug army. What an outrageous scam.

This level of action needs to happen throughout the country if the Dem Party wants to survive. Thinking about the jurors on her trial. I served on 2 juries and it wasn't fun, but you do it out of civic responsibility. Polis pardoning Tina Peters was a special fuckyou to those jurors.

Saw someone respond to the idea of DC statehood with “so should every major city be its own state?” and yeah don’t threaten me with a good time.

"And in what way does firing people from the Post make people more likely to pay for the Post?" That obvious follow-up question is strictly forbidden under capitalism.

Functionally indistinguishable from the way Putin talks about Ukraine & Xi talks about Taiwan.

listen up graduates

More proof that financial success is 80% luck and has almost nothing to do with intelligence. Jeff Bezos could easily be replaced by an AI agent.

This is absolutely true. The presidents we would have previously held up as examples of corruption have been repeatedly lapped by Donald Trump.

Exactly what happened during Trump 1 leading up to the Covid pandemic when he and his idiot toadies pulled all of CDC early detectors/responders out of China in 2018. More proof that anyone who supports this current Republican regime has nothing but deadly contempt for everyone outside their tribe.

Republican voters don't want conservatives anymore. They want cult members.

This administration is filled with the most repellent men I have ever seen. By which I mean: their politics are repellent, but also, if you found yourself on a date with them, you’d immediately text a friend your whereabouts, then fake an emergency and abscond.

This is the last nail in the coffin for small publishers. "Instead of returning a simple list of links, Google Search will drop users into AI-powered interactive experiences at times. Google is also introducing tools that can dispatch “information agents” to gather information on a user’s behalf..."

My audition for James Bond. Ain't it time for a 007 who's tired of yo' shit? @primevideo.bsky.social @deadline.com @thr.com @denisvilleneuve.bsky.social

However appalled you are by this, it’s not enough. It’s a frank statement that Trump and Trumpists are above the law and need not even plausible excuses to loot your tax dollars. It’s a total failure of our civic institutions.

Duck Duck Go

Important lesson for all you kids out there: Crime DOES pay!

Republicans in Congress keep showing us how utterly, completely amoral they are. They don't give a shit about anything or anyone except their glorious cult leader.

Have you been injured? #slushfund

So much reporting now is just to confirm our government is lying to us.

Blanche could’ve just said, without even fully accepting the premise here, that if you’re a known child abuser you can’t have this money. The fact that he won’t say that is horrifying

Here's a good 🧵 for anyone wondering about the constitutional aspects of Trump's latest bit of flagrant corruption.

When a regime clearly holds the rule of law in contempt, and views itself as completely above the law, it and its agents don’t have any moral argument for the protections of the rule of law.

But nobody got in trouble for mispronouncing all these names because it was all the fault of The AI. Isn't that the whole point of replacing people with sentient computers? I am responsible, therefore I am.

I say without hyperbole that this is the most brazenly corrupt action in US Presidential history. That it does not immediately lead to impeachment is a dangerous sign of how far the rule of law has declined.

a lot of people on here refuse to take the corruption of the Biden DOJ seriously just because it's fictional

Pennsylvania audited 210,905 voter registration forms tied to PennDOT. Result: 1 noncitizen was improperly sent and registered—he never voted and is no longer registered. Another real-world data point against claims of noncitizens voting en masse. https://ow.ly/jMXc50Z0l2e

Justice requires us to abide by the law in letter and in spirit. #Accountability is a requisite of justice. The bar is so low here that it is nauseating. With every barbaric act people become more inured, more immune to the inhumanity that is perpetuated in our world.

The whole point of fast food besides the speed, is consistency - knowing exactly what you're getting. More evidence that the most effective use of AI is as a replacement for corp CEO's.

Great article on why the Founding Fathers insisted that our new government would be secular. (RNS) — The ancestors of today’s Christian nationalists weren’t the leaders of Christian America — they were the heretics. religionnews.com/2026/05/17/c...

Sorry Evangelicals but Donald just isn't that into you... and never was if you could be honest about it.
