Right wingers in 2017: Dumb libs think words are violence Right wingers in 2025: Words are violence and we're going to throw you in jail for saying the wrong ones, which is terrorism bsky.app/profile/atru...

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

Trump has decided that no jobs report will issue on Friday due to the government shutdown. But it turns out there is a different reason: that report will, when issued, be catastrophically bad.

I missed the bus because I stopped to greet an impossibly floofy dog and his human baby sidekick whose bare feet were adorably dangling from his lovely mama’s Ergo carrier. Worth it.

Pathetic. Appeasement doesn’t work. You’d think the ADL would know this.

FLASHBACK — TRUMP ON A GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN IN 2013: "Problems start from the top. The President's the leader. he’s got to get everybody in a room and lead.”🤔

Ha!

You probably think Democrats are doing nothing right now, right? Would you believe me if I said that they are doing a 24 hour live stream about the effects of losing healthcare and the shutdown on every day people with personal testimonies? www.youtube.com/watch?v=2dm-... 1/2

In light of today’s absolutely fucking deranged “I’m in a war movie” speeches by Trump and Hegseth, I give you the plaque at West Point.

Fuckin yikes, man

If any other president in all of history said the military should use American cities as a training ground he would be removed from office that same day. The hardest thing to tolerate in all this is how relatively silent elected democrats are. It’s ridiculous.

Are you kidding me? We can’t even manage to acknowledge the personhood - and all the rights to which we should be entitled - of human beings consistently. We absolutely do not need to even consider the “personhood” of a bunch of code. Do better.

Lather, rinse, repeat.

Yesterday, the PA Supreme Court held that when a board of elections decides before Election Day that a mail-in ballot won't count because of an error, the voter has a right to know so they can vote provisionally. And that's why the GOP wants to axe them. Vote YES to retain. bsky.app/profile/adam...

Happy 21st to this guy. I love being his mom.

Someone asked if I was ready for the fall, and it actually took me a moment to realize that they meant autumn, not the complete collapse of democracy.

I’ll be supporting their primary opponents and so should you.

I like this. Since under RFK Jr, Covid shots are now for people with underlying conditions that put them at risk, Michigan’s chief medical executive Dr. Natasha Bagdasarian states that not having the most recent Covid shot constitutes such an underlying condition. www.michigan.gov/mdhhs/inside...

Glad to be a Pennsylvanian.

Just ask Target how that’s working out for them.

So the studio behind all those "do the right thing in the face of injustice, oppression, and tyranny" stories - Marvel, Star Wars, etc. - is cowed by a deranged, sociopathic, narcissistic, convicted felon from Queens because its share price and executive bonuses are more important than anything

My income has not at all kept pace with inflation. NOT AT ALL.

The left was derided for promoting a cancel culture because they went after predators and those who abused their wealth and power. The right is canceling anyone who dares speak truth to power. Both sides are not remotely the same.

I really thought we’d defeated the fascists for good and all. Alas, no.

One of these things is not like the other.

Feel like I’m going insane with the revisionist history that Charlie Kirk fostered open debate. He chilled speech and his targeting of professors for wrongthink led to threats, harassment, and being forced out of their jobs. His legacy is chilling speech right now, about him

This.

I went to several protests during Trump’s first term wearing a Handmaid’s Tale costume. People thought we were overreacting. WE WERE NOT.

Meanwhile ProPublica found that three current members of Trump's cabinet actually *did* do the thing it looks like they falsely accused Lisa Cook of doing... www.techdirt.com/2025/09/12/t...

AYFKM?!? UC Berkeley just shat all over its proud legacy.

This one hurts.

“Every political movement in history, including the most bloodthirsty, has condemned political violence by its opponents. The only real test is whether you also oppose political violence by your allies. This is a test Trump has repeatedly failed.”

hey the people that stormed the capitol and erected gallows to murder elected leaders want you to know that political violence is not ok

I bought a wee little pepperoni pizza and popped it in the air fryer. Only now I can’t find the hot honey. This should not be as depressing as it is, right?

This explains it better than I can

Aw. I loved her.

He was booed in 2015 and he’s gonna be booed tomorrow.

This tactic - pressuring corporations financially until they put a regime friendly voice in charge - is exactly how Orbán took over the free press in Hungary

“As of press time, the administration had not yet decided upon the mechanism for the cover-up that we will eventually regurgitate without skepticism so please just take it as read… “

This whole timeline just sucks.

Can confirm.

The kid survived his first week at university. And so did the galactic empire. Of geese.

My video about how LLMs are not search engines has led to many, MANY comments telling me that I should be using Perplexity. Some insisting that Perplexity does not hallucinate. Out of a list of 26 papers it just provided me (in "Research" mode) 4 were real. FOUR. 85% hallucination rate.

Pennsylvania needs buses, not boondoggles.

Grotesque.

10-year-old Weston Halsne said he and his classmates were well-drilled in what to do in a shooting situation - but not in the environment in which they found themselves. "We practise it every month, but not in church, only in the school," he said.

“Don’t just say this is about thoughts and prayers right now. These kids were literally praying.”
