no! i don't want AI to summarize books I want to read! no! i don't want AI to help me code stuff which is fun to do on my own! NO i don't want AI to "create" art that i actually like to make all by myself. NO MORE. GTFO.

Another unique symbol of Minnesota resistance ✊🏼 - an ICE OUT snow sculpture with the names of people killed by ICE. 🤍

Spotted near Kenwood Park, Minneapolis.

Who you gonna believe, her or your lyin' eyes?

For centuries, American Men have convinced each other - through culture & conditioning - that violence is power.

When in reality: violence is loss of control.

99% of people only commit violence when they lose control of their emotions.

Violence does NOT DISPLAY POWER - it only shows weakness.

That’s what I’m talking about.

I see a lot of indie bookstores in the groups I’m in refuse to carry indie authors that are published through KDP because “fuck Amazon, they’re bad for authors.” And I wonder how many of them realize that Amazon actually pays comparatively better than Ingram etc. 🥲

MAGA Nation is an account based in the EU. Dark MAGA is an account based in Thailand. Joined from UK.

MAGA Scope is an account based in Nigeria. The MAGA Beacon is an account based in South Asia.

Spetsna 007 is an account based in France, joined from Nigeria. Mary Tiles Texas is an account based in Russia.

Musk turned on a feature on X that showed country of origin.

He disabled it a couple hours later when it was revealed how many MAGA accounts aren't in the U.S.

Foreign bot disinformation machines exposed.

Seems like Twitter could have done that feature 15 years ago & we wouldn't be here today.

You can tell the shutdown isn't a real emergency because Ted Cruz is still in the country.

The next X years are going to be so tedious and dumb and painful.

Miss you in the morning but hope you are enjoying your well deserved ‘evolution into the next phase of your life,’ as Serena Williams puts it. ❤️

@cathyclassical.bsky.social knowing you love Mozart, I wondered if you have heard about this new play, Madame Mozart: The Lacrimosa, by Anne Undeland? It’s going to be at Gloucester Stage October 9-19. gloucesterstage.com
I saw it in the Berkshires last summer and loved it, going again!

Pam Bondi deleted a government study showing that right-wingers commit more terrorism. The right cannot think coherently so instead of making their own studies, they censor legitimate ones.

But don't worry Pam, I saved it for you web.archive.org/web/20250911...

Oh I like Phil Jones; pleasant voice and upbeat vibe. I’m not familiar with David O’Leary but your endorsement is encouraging! I’ll check his bio. Thanks 😊

Hi Joshua-what do you think of the new morning guy on CRB?

A little math about that prison camp in Florida. $450 million per year for 3,000 people is $150,000/person per year. The cost for one person receiving SNAP for one year is $2256, yet they're telling us that's too expensive. threads.com/@unapologeticallyzae

NEWS: Annie Farmer, an Epstein survivor who testified against Ghislaine Maxwell, just revealed on CNN that she wrote a letter with her concerns to Deputy AG Blanche — and received no response.

She says neither she nor other survivors have heard a word from the DOJ.

Sigh, yes. I missed the last day too. Phil Jones has been covering (he sounds like Tyler to me!). Tough shoes to fill for sure!

The concept of freedom was great - only when white, Christian men were free.

As soon as freedom became liberally applied to everybody else, they began not only panicking - but organizing.

& that's how so many different anti-democratic groups have formed & gotten power.

It's very dangerous.

But if you became the host of the morning show it would be wonderful!🤞🥰

@tylerontheair.bsky.social
Hi Tyler- Is that your voice I’ve been hearing on the morning show at CRB? I had been hoping you would take over the afternoon show when Chris Voss left and I was bummed when you moved on. Needless to say I’ve been verklempt since Laura Carlo retired (well-deserved).

The thing about ABC firing Terry Moran for expressing a political opinion is

He called Stephen Miller a man fueled by hatred

That’s not a fucken opinion that’s like saying water is wet

Its a fact

Terry Moran was fired for accurately describing reality

How long is this campaign?

That’s because there weren’t any.

He didn't wear a suit, but he received a pardon and was treated better than Zelenskyy was.
