I'm going to say this as kindly as I possibly can. Some folks are sliding into fascism way too easily.

Does the Republican Party reinvent itself after MAGA or do they just go Full Monty on the fascism?

@kamalaharris.com What you said on Meidas is wrong. Trump and all his crimes and criminals must be prosecuted with all the might of Federal Law, all the might of State Law and all the might of Moral Law. Our Nation has been overrun with weasels, bottom feeder blood suckers. You are wrong wrong wrong

there are people serving life sentences right now on thinner evidence than we have for "donald trump was jeffrey epstein's partner in serial rape" democrats-judiciary.house.gov/media-center...

What Kamala Harris proposes in not impeaching Trump is this the same reason why letting Jefferson Davis and the rest of the Confederate soldiers and leaders off the hook was a bad idea.. We've been paying for it ever since😡

As much as chatbots pose real risks in myriad ways, I don't think LLMs would have been adopted/pushed so fast without years of COVID isolation. People seem legitimately meaner now. And hell, I still deal with some social anxiety I didn't have pre-COVID lockdown.

Christianity’s global spread was marked by colonialism, forced conversions, destruction of Indigenous cultures and religious persecution. International Religious Freedom Day should celebrate the freedom to believe or not believe, not the spread of Christianity.

vivek's hairstyle kind of looks like dessert at the cheesecake factory

Islam and Science are like PB&J :)

This year alone, New Yorkers have reported more than 188,000 incidents of domestic violence. That's 780 incidents every day. Countless others go unreported. If you or someone you love needs help, call 1-800-621-HOPE or visit on.nyc.gov/hotlinechat.

It’s bad enough that Gavin Newsom opposes California’s Prop 40. But he also supports Prop 42, a billionaire-backed poison pill that would cancel out Prop 40 entirely and make it impossible to enact future wealth taxes. It’s clear whose side he’s on. Remember this in 2028.

For years, the Trump admin has launched slanderous attacks against Rep. Omar. This morning, the administration sent federal officials to raid her home. We cannot and will not accept this unprecedented abuse of power. I stand with @repilhan.bsky.social. apnews.com/article/ilha...

This is a gross abuse of power & the latest in a decade-long, racist smear campaign against a duly elected Black Congresswoman. Trump is a coward who is weaponizing his DOJ to fuel hate & intimidate opponents with baseless attacks like these, just like with Rep. McIver, Lisa Cook & Tish James.

I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.

ICE has to be dismantled, with every single incident like this investigated and prosecuted.

Me and a bra at about 6:39 PM.

The Fucking Bible

I just realized a neighbor diagonal from me has created an indoor shooting range. Shooting still going on now an hour later. I remember Chris Rock suggesting we make bullets real expensive. Still a good idea, I never heard the shooting before. What you practicing for mister conservative neighbor?

I don't read comics, but everything seems like a bad reading of comics.

It's as if there is a giant effort being made to reduce everything possible to a giant sigh of who cares. Real or fake? Who cares? Art or artifice? We're surrounded by tons of artifice now, who cares if a robot does it instead? Who cares is the brother of fuck it and fuck it is fertilizer for evil.

huh, interesting that vance thinks this is the worst terrorist attack and not oklahoma city

My man looks like he's stuck in a used condom.

Dennis Hastert, the longest-serving Republican Speaker in history, has died at 84. Hastert admitted in federal court to sexually abusing boys he coached as a high school wrestling coach. A federal judge called him a "serial child molester." He was a registered sex offender.

I’ve seen dunks on this, pro and con. Both are fine, whatever. I’m just out here to say that I can’t imagine having this kind of free time to leisurely pursue one-on-ones to preserve the culture of civility or what have you. That is all.

Folks have insulted:  My Southern drawl.  My loc’d hair.  My clothes.  My shoes.  My intelligence.  I’ve been called a ghetto Black b!t€h. Now @JDVance says I don’t belong and should leave the very country my ancestors helped build. This is a lot y’all. It is. #AngieForFlorida

In light of all the horrible sexual assault in the news, this from my conversation with Kate Manne in February at Princeton still sums up my thoughts. Power =\= Good Men(tm). Power = Power.

#MusicChallenge #IsmuasMonthOfMusic Day 2 A Song With A Wah-Wah Guitar. Jimi Hendrix Experience - Voodoo Child (slight return) The onomatopœically aptly named effect was created in 1966 and manufactured by Vox and Crybaby. Perfect timing for Jimi to strike fame in 1967. youtu.be/qFfnlYbFEiE?...

🚨 BREAKING: The family of Renee Good and her partner, Rebecca Good, have filed two federal lawsuits over Good’s January killing by ICE agent Jonathan Ross in Minneapolis. 1/

The 2,000 residents at NYCHA’s Nostrand Houses have lived with outdated appliances, faulty heating and cooling systems, unreliable elevators, untreated lead and mold, and weak security systems that have decayed over time.

Btw, I have a file folder of Hollywood show ideas about AI if anyone wants to buy them from me or just make the one really good idea for free.

When I say we desperately need a Democratic doctor in the US Senate I mean it.

Brutal! The Cornell rapists had to write those essays in longhand while still recovering from a slap on the wrist.

this is legitimately very funny

This exchange actually is the best example of everything we were discussing. going to use it to teach. Not just the lack of cultural competency but the contempt for the idea of culture as a competency. It’s perfect.

Anyway, yall know all this stuff. The real point is that we all know this stuff but they keep making this AI thing that pretends we don’t know this stuff. the word for that is power.

Call it what it really is, the Chamber Pot Of Commerce.

Tommy Tuberville, we found the furries, they’re at Mar-a-Lago.
