AI labs are racing to build systems that improve themselves, but their own researchers say they don't know how to control them. Today we're launching a pledge to support legislation requiring human control of AI. Please consider reading and sharing it. dangerousrobot.org/petitions/pr...

Oh, yeah, I still play guitar, I should post videos again someday. Like, today... youtu.be/YP6OoQlSrp8

As if this week needed an extra dose of fascism, the Dept. of Homeland Stupidity served up another big ugly helping of it.

History will point to significant mileposts for the fall of Democracy in the USA, and the rise of a fascist autocracy in its place. This is one of the big ones: Judge Boasberg Finds Probable Cause to Hold Trump Administration in Contempt Over Deportation Flights ground.news/article/judg...

They say they don't like it when we call them nazis, but still they keep acting like nazis... www.msn.com/en-nz/news/o...

Weird to see headlines about the size of the market surges, without the context of the proceeding deep declines. As if the size of the surge would have been possible without the falling-off-a-cliff that came before the surge. Sounds very much like they're kissing orange ass. 🤦‍♂️

Can we stop calling these atrocities "deportations." These people sold to El Salvadorian prisons were not deported. Deportation is a process that did not take place. They were rounded up and removed with no process. They were kidnapped, not deported.

People 💙Yes! It’s President Obama calling out the republicans hypocrisy!! 👏🏽👊🏻🪶👇🏼 #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue #DemsUnited

Happy Hands Off Day! Oh, and Obama finally spoke out: Barack Obama breaks his silence about the current situation in the US: “Imagine if I had done any of this” ground.news/article/face...

If you still think everything will be fine in 4 years, it's time to rethink that naive notion: The Orange One "says he’s considering ways to serve a third term as president" ground.news/article/trum...

I asked AI to explain fascism to a five-year-old, and the response is chilling. This is exactly what we are dealing with. Fascists.

"We are currently clean on OPSEC." 😂

Hard to believe it's been almost five years since we all learned how to wash our hands.

It's very hard to keep up with all the horrible things they're doing to dismantle the US. Trump administration removes ban on 'segregated facilities' in federal contracts ground.news/article/segr...

Seems like someone doesn't want to face being loudly told that he's failing at his sworn duty to uphold and protect the constitution. Dems need to put a vertebrate in the Senate minority leadership position, this jellyfish is asleep at the wheel. ground.news/article/chuc...

So, I guess they'll be renaming the EPA as "The Environmental Destruction Agency" then?

if you find yourself reluctant to support the guy at Columbia because you find some of the politics he espoused distasteful or even abhorrent, you should know that this is exactly the reaction that they hoped for in choosing him as a target for unlawful detention based on political speech.

Now THIS is what I’m talking about 🔥 @housedemocrats.bsky.social @democrats.senate.gov

Trump’s Ukraine policy reads like Putin’s dream for a Russian asset: ✔️Spread propaganda that Ukraine started the war ✔️Cut off military aid ✔️Block intel sharing ✔️Demean Zelenskyy in the Oval Office ✔️Weaken US alliances with Europe Who benefits? Putin. Who loses? Us.

If you're in the US, don't forget to smash all your clocks with a hammer before you go to bed tonight.

Legal counsel representing federal employees is now being targeted by the Trump administration. Law firms are receiving a clear message that retaliation is possible for those advocating on behalf of individuals or groups opposing the administration’s agenda.

This is actually a good way to insure growing, sustained protests on campuses. I suspect the post was actually meant to increase the size and number of protests, to drum up excuses to further illegally suppress protest. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Hey Kamala, Biden, Obama, and Clintons: What the actual fuck is up with your deafening silence?

Pass it on. #StandWithUkraine

I just noticed I had followed the WaPo account long ago. Unfollowed. Check your following lists.

Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.

"Our country is in uncharted territory. We have an administration that is waging war against the rule of law. The evidence is everywhere." www.nytimes.com/2025/02/24/o...

So the President not only fired the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs. He also fired the top JAGs at the Army, Navy and Air Force. Those are the lead people who determine what is a legal order and what is not. So if you're planning to do things that are illegal they're the most obvious obstacle.

Trump just ordered the DOJ to eliminate the police misconduct database. Imagine losing your child to police brutality &finding out the officer had a violent history that wasn't tracked. That’s what happened to Eric Garners family. The officer who killed him had many complaints before that fatal day.

What did the parks do to him @altnps.bsky.social ??

Pro Tip: Don't doomscroll while eating.

Is Musk demanding the data held by the Social Security Administration in order to make it more efficient? Unlikely. Here's a better explanation: www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

That’s the problem. We’ve been standing by for too long.

DOGE is illegal Changing spending policies by executive fiat is illegal The authority granted to Musk is illegal It's not an opinion, but a fact Keep Reposting this

Don't let Trump flood your zone. Stay focused. Keep your eye on what this corrupt regime is really doing — looting the government to line their own pockets with massive tax cuts and the ability to steer more federal contracts their way.
