I didn't realize the first couple were phishing bots and genuinely tried to help them understand they had the wrong number. Lately, I use Google translate to call them thieves and liars in random languages. It's a waste of time but brings me joy 😀

And again, a pattern of putting out statements accusing people of serious Federal crimes and then releasing them hours or days or weeks later with no charges. And no retraction.

NVIDIA is now 16% of US GDP The Plan ? We Gamble the entire global economy on inventing a technology that will abolish basically all jobs on the planet.

Good morning Bluesky !

I feel like I say this every year but I really need people to hear it. Halloween is the best American holiday. Just kids outside welcomed into their world, marching around together, showing off their costumes to the elderly, parents meeting parents, neighbors catching up with neighbors.

Lauren Boebert put more effort into a hateful Halloween party costume than she ever has into serving the people of Colorado's 4th Congressional District. I'm Trisha Calvarese, the former public servant whose going to fire her. Help me out, RT, follow, pitch in if you can.

I can’t wait for you guys to see THE RUNNING MAN. Good God what a relentless, super-fun brain-blast of a flick! And I got to meet WALTER FUCKING HILL, one of my screenwriting heroes, at the afterparty! Thanks @edgarwright.bsky.social!!!

Was going to suggest they do “Masque of the Red Death” next but they already took care of that in the first term.

We have progressed from data collection to data analysis.

Scenes from a marriage:

Me: Oh you think this is funny?

Jess: My 50yr old husband is yelling about a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game he couldn’t beat in the 80s. Yeah, it’s pretty fucking funny.

Me: I’m not yelling. But the bomb level is no laughing matter & it’s time we as a culture admit it!

Wishing all Coloradans a fun and safe Halloween! 🎃

Happy Halloween. Much of the country will have good trick or treating weather this evening through tonight. The exceptions will be for areas of the Pacific Northwest, from the Upper Midwest into the Great Lakes, and across the northern and central Appalachians.

New conversation w/ @markrussinovich.bsky.social about the "AI Boost" that senior engineers are seeing, and the "AI Drag" that early in career engineers hit...it's all our responsibility to lift up the next generation with mentorship, curiosity, and systems thinking! www.youtube.com/watch?v=A6l2...

The witch took her hands off the patient's body.

"First of all," she said with absolute conviction, "there's nothing wrong with you."

"The doctor-"

"Said you must be either man or woman?"

"That it's black or white, no grey."

"Nonsense. Every colour in the rainbow is between black and white."

"At this moment in time, of course, the release of the TRUMPSTEIN Files is really the public's main priority."

That Donald Trump thinks the Supreme Court would decide a case based on a political speech by Ronald Reagan—instead of the law—is an admission that he knows the current, corrupt Court is a practitioner of politics, not a protector of laws.

So he was telling the truth? The amount of illegal this is is a *lot*.

I just can't anymore. Sweet merciful crap. Republicans in Congress should, to the last one, be hauled out of office for violating their oaths.

Helped two teens who were hiding from ICE this morning after a third had been snatched on Oakton in Evanston. They’re safe, half dozen community members responded. Adrenaline crash happening now.

I have a note: Please don’t make AI slop versions of actual signs ppl made by hand.

So proud of everyone! The NYPD confirmed that rallies across the city have ended with no arrests. It’s getting harder and harder for Trump to sell his propaganda.

No Kings protest

No Kings

Do your best on Saturday.

Above ALL else stay calm.

It’s going to be so hard.

You’re going to get pissed.

You’re going to want to lash out.

Don’t do it.

Stay together.

Be safe.

If all else fails just walk away.

I don’t want to hear about any of you getting hurt.

If you 💙 America… find a No Kings march on Saturday and show the world how many of us want our country back…

excellent explainer
