The animals keep changing. Snake & horse are new additions to the list: Dec NC Rally: Lion, Giraffe, Fish, Hippopotamus... bsky.app/profile/dart...

maybe I do not count as a professional but I did just spend a month in court hammering home home much OpenAI and xAI are run by mendacious children. saw a lot of other outlets covering it too...

For business owners, the important part of the new ECHR advice is this: 13.179: There is no type of official record or document in the UK which provides reliable evidence of sex. [...] Therefore, it is unlikely to be proportionate or practical to ask for further evidence of a person’s sex.

FUCK ICE NOW AND FOREVER

NESTERAK: President Trump has granted clemency to numerous individuals who have stolen hundreds of millions in Medicaid funds. Can we expect any of these folks to be shown the same mercy? McDONALD: I'll take a different question

This shit drives me crazy as a Jew. The more people hear that “it’s antisemitic to criticize foreign rape prisons” the larger a segment of the population will think, “Huh, I guess I hate Jews then.”

From Kat Abughazaleh attorneys Josh Herman and Molly Armour:

The dumbest person at Anthropic is giving your money for claude to Elon for $1.25 billion per month to use the two most toxic data centres on Earth while glazing Elon online.

They” didn’t leak Trump’s tax returns. An IRS contractor did - along with thousands of other tax returns - during Trump’s first term. Biden’s DOJ prosecuted the contractor, who got the max: 5 years in prison. This is shameful spin from SDNY U.S. Attorney Jay Clayton.

PSA for YouTube Creators! Just wanna share this in case you don't want Google to have access to remix your YouTube shorts with GenAI using Gemini! YOU ARE AUTOMATICALLY ENROLLED. Here is what it's doing and how to opt out of said option if you don't want your shorts to be remixed with AI.

Of the big 3 labs, Anthropic and Google are probably fine. The bubble risk for OpenAI is really downstream: I still think there's a solid chance that a lot of the deals they've signed will ultimately have to be written down, and their partners may take a market beating for it.

This is an utterly, pointlessly cruel policy and cis folks need to do whatever we can stand up against it. Solidarity with our trans and NB siblings 🏳️‍⚧️ 🏳️‍🌈

On Saturday 60,000 attended the far right Unite the Kingdom march in London. 250,000 attended the pro-Palestine Nakba Day rally at the same time in London.

Nice to see the Leftest Video Essay Industrial Complex holding its annual 2026 shareholders meeting this weekend with special guest Neil Breen, the only honest man in Hollywood. @hbomberguy.bsky.social @lolkat.bsky.social @yms.bsky.social

I saw Dire Duplicity twice in a row at LA Film Fest. It was even better on a second watch. Brilliant character study with a great sense of flow and rhythm. An entirely new vision from a true artist with fantastic setups and payoffs. Would happily watch again. 10/10

and I really mean it this time

Clearly Lindsey is taking about Bengal Famine of 1943.

Andon labs created AI-Hosted 24/7 radio shows, and Claude absolutely could not stop libbing out

Exclusive: video of OpenAI's legal team against Elon Musk's legal team in closing arguments today. www.youtube.com/watch?v=VLDU... @lopatto.bsky.social 's reporting gave me the joke: "This is like watching the Warriors play a team of 6-year-olds."

GILLIBRAND: What is your record?! I don't want to just hear about what you don't like about the Biden administration SCOTT TURNER: During the Biden administra-- GILLIBRAND: Stop talking about Biden! Talk about your record TURNER: During the Biden administration-- GILLIBRAND: Oh my God!

Toss Your Weasel Wednesday!

interesting rationale from a prospective juror in the Elon Musk Twitter stock manipulation case

Oh god the discussion in Vancouver is going to be so stupid from all sides. “11 AI agents” is meaningless as a phrase. If I said “I have 11 spreadsheets” or “I have 11 browser tabs” to do my work, it means about the same thing.

Please retweet.

"Earlier today the Prime Minister spent 17 minutes with Wes Streeting" The poor bastard. I feel a lot more sympathy for Starmer now.

I can't believe I am defending a Reform councillor, but it is a valid point to make sure that UAP reporting is up and running, as they reopen the Airport in Doncaster, given the increase in ability for anyone to get a drone since it was last open in 2022. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I too always bring it autism

Jay finding out in real-time that there's a big difference between doing a podcast and sneering about Tony Fauci on Fox News, and actully being in charge during a potential outbreak.

What about the faction of the Democratic Party who just thinks it’s a fucking dealbreaker to have had a Nazi tattoo for so long?

The NHS effectively doesn't prescribe hormones for under 18s already - but once this is rolled out, they've effectively destroyed CYP medical care altogether. This also maps the arguments they will use with respect to hormones for over 18s - same team have already launched a review.

Hey @thedailytism.com peps, this is like your articles without the humour or actual real life grounding. (I don't believe it's Rhys fault how unhelpful an article this is for disabled people.) www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Bathroom bans are unworkable in practice. When pushed, supporters admit they expect trans people to break their laws. Creating laws trans people have no choice but to break isn't an accident. The intent is punishment of the ones they hate. The intent is driving trans people out of public life

these people would implode if they had to work at tescos. or do shift work. or take weekend and evening work because the day job doesn’t pay enough. or do deliveroo. this is truly pathetic.

Pete Buttigieg took a brief leave when his son was in the ICU and Republicans still attack him for it to this day. But Duffy goes on an extended vacation to shoot a reality show while there are all sorts of pressing problems with air travel and Fox News thinks it's awesome. Beyond parody.

I'm afraid I must insist. You see, my electorate, she has been most vocal about the subject of the resignation. "Where is the resignation?" "When are you getting the resignation?" "Why aren't you getting the resignation now?" And so on. So, please... the resignation.

I do get that, but you need to compare that to the general cost of burning all the "we're the ethical, thoughtful AI company" to the ground via "we leased the turbocancer generator that everyone agrees was a bad idea and our defenders regularly condemn."

so I guess anthropic is running off the high-pollution datacenters we use as examples of what not to do? I'd really like this not to be true, but idk how else to interpret this news

me: posts long thread about datacenters and how most of them aren't that awful for their environment, with the noted exception of xAI's Memphis datacenter which Musk created specifically to be as horrible as possible anthropic: you know what, we'll just use that one! remember, we're the good guys!

Man, that sounds terrible. Killed with impunity by agents of the state for just being on the street and protesting? Hard to see how regimes like that can continue to claim a popular mandate.

**data scientist hits bong** "guys wouldn't it be funny if we made a chatbot GPT model using Python that runs through the entire vector database each time it processes tokens?" **MBA overhearing** "You have created God. I will base the entire economy on this!"

Let's explain how this is a incredible stupid prompt in 2026 and shows how Marc does not understand the current generation of LLMs, be that like the massive ones like Opus 4.7 or smaller open source models you can run on a Macbook like Qwen3.6 27B.

This is a powerless totem on par with boomer "I don't give Facebook permission..." posts

Yes, I'm sure this will stop the five or so open-weight models on hugging face, which are lagging six months behind SOTA
