Media needs to stop with "critics say" and just quote the actual language of the bill. HB 249 creates a new category of "seminudity" which can be used to arrest women who aren't nude, but are wearing clothing — leggings, t-shirts without bras — that religious groups feel is too provocative.

mynews4.comCritics of new bill say Ohio women would be banned from sports bras, bikinis in public'The peak of fear mongering.'

Millions of American voters wanted to be villains. They came to believe it’s the key to success, while goodness is weak, woke, loser stuff, done only to signal. Offered the option of unvarnished villainy, they enthusiastically took it. Seeing others suffer more made them feel big. And here we are.

These are the 4 things AI can do well: •Clean up your email inbox (badly) •Give my shittiest neighbor (Alan) something to talk about at a party •Tell a 12 yr old to kill himself •Incinerate a school at 10:16 AM on a Tuesday You can see why we need to base our economy around it

Don't bother arguing about whether ICE is a police force or a military force. It's neither. It behaves as a disorganized, violent mob, cursing, shouting contradictory orders, and attacking unarmed citizens on a whim. It is deployed to create fear and chaos, not to enforce laws or establish order.

most D members of congress have many years of votes to fund and expand the powers of ICE and CBP, despite warnings from experts. of course they aren’t going to abolish what they created. it would, at minimum, be extremely embarrassing to their legacy the way forward is this:

“these exist, not because the goal is productivity, but rather, wage suppression.”

automated slop seems impressive if you have no interest in actually making the damn thing yourself. as a wordsmith, i was unimpressed by the slop qwen or mistral spat out. as a doodler, diffusion models have been bad. these exist, not because the goal is productivity, but rather, wage suppression.

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion. As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

Besides linking Tylenol in pregnant women to autism, RFK Jr. now says circumcision is part of the reason why kids are autistic. "Children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism, and it's highly likely because they're given Tylenol. None of this is positive..."

A Black man and a homeless man were found hanging from trees in Mississippi yesterday, for those who haven’t seen yet because it’s barely made it out of local news.

The right: “He wasn’t a violent person, he was too much of a pussy to do anything so instead he convinced others to do it for him, it’s not the same. Stop all the hate!”

They're hiding their faces–not their intentions. This was filmed today as masked DC police & ICE agents stopped delivery drivers. A waste of resources. This agent felt comfortable to say on camera that he was there "doing the Lord’s work.” These are no longer religious undertones. They're overt.
