Honestly, far more important and horrific shit than the East Wing. Couldnโ€™t care less.

The amount of passive voice in this article. ๐Ÿ˜ตโ€๐Ÿ’ซ Itโ€™s like the gun magically did everything.

And this is why believing the Bible is perfect and โ€œthe manual for modern day lifeโ€ is fucking dangerous.

Yes. The Bible condones slavery.
Yes. The Bible condones genocide.
Yes. The Bible condones polyamory.

โ€ฆunless you go outside the text for context like this dumbass refuses to do.

Over it. And so sorry youโ€™re a scapegoat. Itโ€™s absolute horseshit.

Instead of blaming a group that literally just wants to fucking live, maybe Liberals should realize they have not been the party of the working class for some time, and theyโ€™ve lost the faith and trust of the American people. Create meaningful policy, donโ€™t take corporate bribes, and earn our trust.

Itโ€™s giving victim blaming. When liberals say we got into identify politics around trans folks and it lost us the race, I say, โ€œ1. Conservatives made it about trans folks. 2. We had a platform that did nothing for the working class.โ€

Mark Zuckerberg has a vision for how A.I. could be used in Meta's universe.

But the actor and filmmaker Joseph Gordon-Levitt is here to point out a flaw in the technology: an apparent lack of guardrails around how the company's chatbot interacts with underage users. nyti.ms/3ILwCNo

NEW: I created this reference list of all known third-country removals since Trump's inauguration.

It's a lot more than you probably think, and there are likely more we don't know about.

Bookmark this, I will be updating it as more occur.

I got my teaching degree and promptly left the profession. Too many folks have been guilted into burning themselves for the kids, saying โ€œItโ€™s not about the money.โ€ If itโ€™s a noble profession, prove it with money.

The answer is, they want it to reduce labor and increase profits.

You know what I've noticed? Nobody panics when things go "according to plan." Even if the plan is horrifying! If two state lawmakers in MN get killed, nobody panics, because anti-Dem violence is normalized. But one GOP podcaster gets shot, well then everyone loses their minds.

Which work? Calling for gay people to be stoned to death? Blaming airplane crashes on black pilots? Anti-vax bullshit? Election denialism? Pushing Great Replacement Theory?

Kirkโ€™s murder is awful and ominous for this country. But no, we donโ€™t need to honor him or โ€œcontinue his work.โ€

A kindergartener is more in touch with reality than one of our Supreme Court justices.
