it's okay to socially ostracize parents who won't vaccinate themselves or their children, in fact we should be doing it as a rule

To clarify, "everyone in this administration is absolutely cooked on dementia, cocaine, scotch, gender, or a cocktail that combines at least some of the above" is technically a reason but it's not a *strategic* reasons.

She's very much not adoptable (well, except for times when she really wants to get dinner two hours early), but here's a Tilly

The Platner pattern of getting caught doing something Nazi-adjacent, huffily disavowing it and then doing another wink-wink nudge-nudge signal to the extreme right is pretty much the Trump 2016 playbook

Commands around the world, including U.S. Central Command in the Middle East, use Anthropic’s Claude AI tool, people familiar with the matter confirmed. Centcom declined to comment about specific systems being used in its ongoing operation against Iran.

The command uses the tool for intelligence assessments, target identification and simulating battle scenarios even as tension between the company and Pentagon ratcheted up, the people said, highlighting how embedded the AI tools are in military operations.

The WSJ is reporting that AI, specifically Claude, was used in targeting for the attacks by the Epstein Empire.

That would mean the use of AI led directly to the massacre of 115 schoolchildren and 20 volleyball players.

The "this is just a distraction!" thought-terminating brainworm is one of the most infuriating holdovers from Trump's first term.

Nothing is a distraction; they're not that disciplined or clever. Everything is important; their one strategy is to DDOS democracy and its mechanisms of accountability.

Voters, being citizens, ought to exercise their citizenship with responsibility. Voters, being people, ought to do right by other people. That is obligation enough.

It’s amazing that considering how everything bad in America has a racist backstory, that everything internal in white America is gender.

I remember when trying to forgive student loans was massive overreach of Presidential power.

If I were a head of state, I would think setting a precedent that assassination is a legitimate tool of state competition would be unwise

the former host of celebrity apprentice and the former host of fox & friends weekend are launching bombs and destabilizing the world for generations all because voters decided their biggest issue was a trans kid playing jv tennis with their friends 4 states over

our government combines the impulse control of pete hegseth, the intellectual rigor of rfk jr, and the attention span of donald trump with elon musk’s signature sense of humor

i think that Hegseth should have unlimited access to the model which convinces you to kill yourself, white house doctor oxycodone, and military-grads firearms

100%. Came here to say this.

A lot of Trump’s support came from β€œneither left nor right” types who think of themselves as freethinkers and get lured in by Greenwald types

Cool to know that the great struggle of modern times is β€œhow do we stop the 30% of Americans whom are irredeemably evil from killing us all?”

other people can make inroads and find common ground with regretful trump voters, in my personal capacity as a private citizen i am committed to hating those dumb motherfuckers for the rest of my life

i think we need to make a social shift. instead of proving how cool you are by knifing someone on our team, what if you proved how cool you are by taking the fight to the enemy. crazy thought
