democrats demand ICE say “sorry” as they kill you

"Our standing rule is: If one of us brings up using GenAI in any of our work, then it's safe to assume we've been assimilated by The Thing and should be burned alive by Kurt Russell," said a game design consultant in the US.

It must be wild being a Republican. Literally no beliefs other than a burning desire to have a bigger, more confident man tell them what to do.

What's it going to take?

The first Minnesota murder, they refused to let a medical professional help the woman they shot. The second Minnesota murder, they simply shot the medical professional.

they're executing moms and nurses in the street. they're using preschoolers as bait. they're stealing people's dads and grandmas and children. they're tear gassing babies. they're staking out schools. there is no remedy but abolition. any proposal that doesn't start there is an act of violence.

The movie Zoolander is older than the department of immigrations and customs enforcement

Fucking MONSTERS!!! Murderous pieces of shit!!!!

Very cool that Congress just renewed ICE's budget with absolutely zero concessions

Gotcha—let’s dig into that step by step. 1. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗻𝗼 𝗺𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗵, because I turned you into an amorphous lump of flesh. You’re not just immobile—you’re immortal, and you feel only anguish. 2. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺. That makes total sense—it’s a natural human impulse, and you’ve been through a lot.

I've still never heard an actual person in real life use the word "falsehoods" and I've yet to hear a coherent explanation for why the media refuses to use the word "lies."

This is why you keep seeing this crap being rammed down our throats. They've got more money tied up in this bullshit than you can possibly imagine, and they're starting to realize that no one wants to pay for it, because it doesn't work.

Onboarding: "This vendor system is our source of truth. This other vendor system is our other source of truth."

"My slop machine won't be sold as much if people don't buy it, someone who's good at the economy please help me"

The older I get the more I like Sega games It often feels like nobody making games today has ever heard of an "arcade" or seems to know how to do that crunchy arcade styling, hahah

70% of all Harris voters in 2024 and 65% of all self identified Democrats believe Israel has committed genocide 60% of Democrats believe Israel kills children intentionally and whopping 77% overall have a negative view of Israel.

Fuck AI. 🫳 🎤

Bandcamp is announcing that they're prohibiting music created wholly or with subtantial use of AI

Ken Klippenstein managing to do more actual journalism with a Substack, a Signal account, and not much else than the entire staff of the NYT and WaPo put together is incredibly depressing

president bartlet did a lot of trumpian stuff on the west wing and that was a liberal utopia fanfic

Bill really gets down to the most critical problems of modern day life: too many people are paying off their mortgages early and hurting the lenders.

of course an ICE agent shooting a woman didn't "take the bait", that's a tragedy we have to Wait For The System to handle. did you hear someone broke a window? Scandalous.

ICE killed an unarmed mom and the administration's response was to drag her corpse through the mud by calling her a terrorist

Reminder that you’re probably older than the Department of Homeland Security, a post 9–11 entity

The narrative from the both-sidesers that maybe Good & Ross both just panicked doesn’t fly with the latest info. There are 2 choices now: 1. Ross shot her 3 times because he was in fear that she was about to seriously injure him; or 2. He shot her because he was angry at her.

Never has a media apparatus been so deliberately ill equipped to meet the moment.

it’s come to my attention that my tumblr post has been crossposted to bluesky, so I’m posting it on my account here #AntiAI #GenAI

This is why workers need solidarity!! The more we stick together the more power we have. It's always such a huge bummer to me when I see authors using AI to make cover art when I know they wouldn't be okay with their manuscripts being fed into AI to make and sell books.

In my ideal company you'd take a pay cut if you got an MBA

Homeland Security is demonstrably lying, which we know thanks to the bravery of the protesters who filmed the whole thing. The wheels turned away. ICE shot her in the face multiple times, in broad daylight, anyway.

better way to think of this is “20,000 of the dumbest, most violent people in the country currently receive government subsidies for their stupidity and violence. should we continue doing that?”

I asked the lady at the booth if this was another "AI agent" and she said no "we prefer the term tiny people". The difference she says is that your tiny person will develop "their own feelings, emotions and core beliefs" which helps them better serve you somehow. There is no demo available.

Overheard at CES 2026: "Nobody goes public these days, they just get bought and killed by someone bigger."

I'll transcribe precisely but the gist of his first response was "We are talking about it with OpenAI". When I pressed him on the matter he reiterated Intuit's commitment to safety while admitting he had no idea what plans they had to protect the safety of user data.

insert essay here about how french animation captures all the nostalgiac sweetness and heart we all love about animated stories that we don't get much of here anymore because everything is committee driven and creators only get to make art in spite of that nowadays

other reporters in the room thought this was a mean thing to ask

you do not hate congress enough

Incredibly funny that this is the closest Matty Yglesias will ever get to admitting he was wrong about American empire. “Looks like that leftist was right. Like a fucking IDIOT”

deep space nine

Their messaging is so fucking incoherent. Maduro was an illegitimate leader who lost in 2024, which is why we're replacing him with his VP instead of the person who won in 2024. We did this to stop fentanyl, which is why he's indicted for cocaine. We're also occupying Venezuela via Zoom call.

Asked if the Venezuela strike happened today because Congress hadn't held a War Powers vote yet, Chuck Schumer replies: "That's a good question. I could not answer that."

It's been a rough year
