"all the funding we need out of russia"

"sees a lot of money pouring in from russia"

Lots of people sharing this clip because it's funny and cathartic but I also genuinely believe it's important.

We have to win the narrative battle between "I live in a corrupt society and that's just how it is" and "I live in a corrupt society and we are going to defeat and humiliate these ghouls."

Same story everywhere you look...except in Nassau County, the fiefdom of anti-Mamdani New York Democratic Party chair Jay Jacobs, whose hand-picked "Moderate Party" Dem slate was slaughtered during a blue wave everywhere else in the country. Seems worth noting by people other than a TV critic

'Slop Evader' Lets You Surf the Web Like It’s 2022 Artist Tega Brain is fighting the internet’s enshittification by turning back the clock to before ChatGPT existed.

Slop Evader is a tool from artist and researcher Tega Brain that lets you search the web for results exclusively before November 30, 2022—the day that ChatGPT was released to the public.

"Och om inte vi visar att det går att fasa ut det fossila – vem ska då göra det?"

Ja - vem?

when you're pretty sure the supreme court will find a way to overrule you, it's a funny move to include prominent bolded quotes from John Roberts

I’m going to be honest with you: The headline is appalling, but the piece, which indeed has an absolutely bizarre tone of nostalgia, is worse.

Remember the recent middle-of-the-night apartment building raid where children were dragged outside naked & zip-tied in the street while black & Latino residents were _sorted by race_ and piled into separate vans while their apartments were ransacked & robbed? That raid? So it resulted in 0 arrests.

“What if it’s a big hoax and we create a better world for nothing?”

15+ years old, but still VERY relevent — and if we had acted 15 years ago, the “better world” we’d be creating would be a LOT better & easier to reach. There are real consequences we’re just starting to see to not heeding this cartoon a lot sooner.

Even worse if we don’t heed it now. #ClimateCrisis

Skojfrisk. Trygg. Bland vänner.

Bara att hoppas att de här människorna lever tillräckligt länge för att hinna ställas inför rätta.

Cannot generate simple excel files on pro version Question So I have used ChatGPT pro for a while now and recently I have been facing an issue while trying to collate data from pdfs and put it in an excel sheet where in my chat it keeps asking me questions when it finally gets down to generating an excel sheet it never gives me the me the link to download the file. After multiple attempts when it does give me a lin k to download the excel file I rec an error which says file not found. Starting to grow frustrated with this now. Look forward to any suggestions to tackle this #problem

This person is paying OpenAI two hundred dollars a month to have a chatbot gaslight them about making an excel spreadsheet

This makes sense coming from the guy whose son monitors his porn consumption

@DHSGov account says "Ratio." They are QTing a post that I wrote (next picture reproduces in full) asking, with a fair amount of snark, why DHS was blaming Governor Pritzker for the Hanover Park PD having hiring someone who allegedly was a visa overstay. They post two headlines about an Illinois law which authorized noncitizens with valid work authorization to become cops.

The post that set this off, in which I too was QTing the DHS account. The DHS post about the Hanover Park PD incident reads as follows: ". @GovPritzker doesn’t just allow illegal aliens to terrorize Illinois’s communities, he allows them to work as sworn police officers. Radule Bojovic overstayed a B2 tourist visa that required him to depart the U.S. on March 31, 2015. Over a decade later, he was still illegally in the U.S. working as a police officer for the Hanover Park Police Department earning a salary of $78,955. Criminal illegal aliens have NO PLACE in our communities, especially on our police forces." My QT response to this was: "What the heck does Governor Pritzker have to do with a local police department hiring decision? Do the people running @DHSgov not even know the basics about how state governments work?"

Excited to inform you all that the Department of Homeland Security is currently attempting to ratio me (and failing, as of more than two hours later).

With a heavy sigh, I repeat: bring back professionalism. For the love of god. You're running comms for the government of the USA. Act like it.

A tweet from Barb McQuade reads: “Today at Detroit Metro Airport.” The attached photo shows an airport security area with stanchions and blue lane dividers, where travelers are lined up in the background. In the foreground, there’s a large yellow sign with black text that reads: “ATTENTION: The views expressed in this TSA controlled video do not represent the views of the Wayne County Airport Authority. The Wayne County Airport Authority does not engage in partisan politics. Thank you.”

Well done, Detroit! We shouldn’t have to accept her “Noem-enclature.”

The Supreme Court Is Being Tested on History Once Again The leading arguments in support of Black voting rights were race-conscious at their core.

Next week, the Supreme Court will hear a case that could determine the future of the Voting Rights Act.

At stake in Louisiana v. Callais is Black voters’ ability to elect their candidates of choice in Louisiana, and all voters' ability to challenge racially discriminatory maps.

New AI School should totally be fun and safe for academics. Totally.

JK Rowling pledges to keep up fight against SNP trans policies Author vows to bankroll campaigners after Scottish government fails to pay group's legal fees in Supreme Court equality case

It cannot be made clearer.

If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

Bethesda removed an Indiana Jones game trailer clip in which Indy said "you don't care much about those fascists, do you?" to a cat.... because cultists claimed it was insensitive toward Charlie Kirk.

They really want to have their cake and goose-step on it.

"Five justices calculated that it was better to remain silent and be thought of as a bunch of racist hacks than to speak out and remove all doubt. But Kavanaugh, channeling his inner Col. Jessup, refused to sign on to the plan."
