As we try to restore access to the No Kings instagram today, this is what I am thinking about.
😡😡😡 “Meta employees acknowledged in internal communications that the Instagram accounts of Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva were hindered by restrictions during [Brazil’s] election” & that Meta “recommended the profile of challenger…Flavio Bolsonaro” & “his WhatsApp channel…” 1/

The fuck does this even mean? ...are the Democrats...unemployed?
Trump: "Because of tariffs, we are taking in hundreds of billions of dollars of profits. It's one of the reasons I can offer, if Republicans win the House and Senate, $5,000 to every adult. We can do it and the Democrats can't, because the Democrats don't have any income."

We passed the bill to address the thing you were really mad about! No, not the tariffs. Sorry, not the Iran war either. The Trump Checks? No, why would you even ask about that. The bill ESPN was obsessed with. You know, the thing Tommy Tuberville has been talking about. No, not the furries either.

If they could read, Republican voters would be appalled. And now you know why they have been trying to gut education funding at all levels.
"Look at the last 3 GOP presidents. One oversaw a double-dip recession with a savings & loans scandal that looted the Treasury. That was Bush I. Another oversaw near meltdown of the whole capitalist system. That was Bush II. Then the next presided over a pandemic-driven collapse. That was Trump I."

I just completed my bachelors and having to send each paper through an Ai check was absolutely nerve wracking. My writing style did pop fairly high, like 10%, a few times. But like the article's author, I started dumbing down my writing style. Particularly in structure and punctuation.
I wrote about writing on the internet in the time of AI and, just as importantly, AI detectors. It's not a good situation right now @slate.com slate.com/technology/2...
