Republicans have built an entire political party on intentional ignorance.

From Walter Cronkite to this.

Sad.

Polls are dumb. He got re-elected just three years after the "terrible" polling after J6.

The thing with politics is – people are going to vote for their team even if the coach is a moron. Job Approval numbers haven't mattered since the '90s

An LLM learns how I speak and adjusts its grammar and spellchecking to match my style.

Microsoft Word has basic spellcheck, but the grammar checking makes me sound like a pedantic robot.

If we all stuck to whatever "existing software already does", we'd still have refrigerator-sized calculators.

Baseball needs new rules after the tenth.

Clear the bench. Every player on the field. You can pitch any direction. Bat from any base.

Absolute chaos until someone makes it Home.

Remember the time when the purpose of a headline was to be informative?

You just invented SlideOver for Mac.

If any 2028 US presidential candidate runs on "i'm getting rid of all the gold, tearing down the half-finished ballroom, and retuning the White House to it's 2024 design" will get my vote.

The White House is nothing but a day care center for sociopaths.

Our president is an international embarrassment.

Screenshot of the splash screen from the YouTube live stream of the no Kings protest. There’s a graphic of a illustrated crown on top of a big red X with a text fighting dictatorship together.

This #NoKingsProtest splash screen is giving exactly the wrong message.

The ❌ should be on top of the 👑. Layers give context and this graphic implies a king stomping on opposition, not the other way around.

Anyway, F*ck Tr*mp.

Or just use arrows for every localization.

Don’t overcomplicate things.

Democrats and Republicans both need to understand this simple fact:

We don’t care what your side did 50 or 100 or 150 years ago. People and party mandates evolve over time.

Tell us what you’ve done in the last 5 years. Tell us what you will do in the next 5 years.

Ah yes. Nothing Idahoans love more than Muslim immigrants.

What could go wrong?

I feel attacked.

Imagine thinking "Liquid Glass is too easy to read, let me set up a bot to make thumbnail images that are even worse"

No President of the United States ever did or ever will deserve a Nobel Peace Prize.

Not even Obama.

Even in the best of times, the things a President has to do should disqualify them.

My 7yo just unironically said “yeah, but you were a kid in the 1900’s” and I was both impressed with his math skills and also fuck that kid.

The most annoying part of the lack of real algorithms on Bluesky is when one person you follow gets on a re-posting kick and my timeline is flooded with dozens of things ONE PERSON thinks are important but I have no interest in.

Let the record show that Donald J Trump, as his first act in his second term as President, pardoned hundreds of Antifa members.

i like the guy, but he will never be President. Doesn't fit the legal requirements.

What a moronic lede.

nobody says "suspect used Waze to help plan" or "suspect used Google to plan".

Don't blame technology for humans doing stupid shit.

I used to blog about Prime Day deals, then realized I was just helping a megalomaniac billionaire advertise.

Looking back, this isn't even a good Photoshop.

“I don’t have time to learn about the laws I’m in charge of, what with all my press conferences and Fox News appearances”

i don't really care about the schedule, but the formatting and justification of the text in this is giving me hives.

It's almost as if all social media sucks. (it does)

And don't come at me with your Mastodon BS. I love Mastodon, but server mods can be just as autocratic as Jay or Elon, and "but just move to a different server" is a terrible solution for real people.

(Yes, that's a dated reference. I'm an old.)
