Tell Congress: Support discharge petition to force vote on ACA tax credits Contact Congress today!

Mike Johnson is big mad that we forced through a petition and forced a vote on releasing the Epstein files.

I don't vote for people who are willing to oversee the extermination of an entire subset of society. Because I am not a fascist.

Cool cool. Are they also going to exclude beer, wine, whiskey, vodka, rum and gin from the definition of "alcoholic beverage?"

It is impossible and nonsensical to pretend you recognize that such a thing as a hate symbol exists, if you're going to pretend the hakenkreuz isn't a hate symbol.

NEW: ALA is sounding the alarm after the Administration announced new steps to dismantle the Department of Education. School & academic libraries across the country rely on Dept. of Ed. funding and knowledge to best serve their students and faculty.

THIS IS INCREDIBLY INSPIRING!

Please watch and share as Starbucks baristas demonstrate outside the company's biggest distribution hub.

They're on DAY 7 of their strike. Baristas and their allies are protesting Starbucks’ serious and unresolved unfair labor practices.

REPOST IF YOU SUPPORT THEM

Paraphrasing an old xbox 360 joke that so effectively trolled people into the exact (correct) response you just made that it became a meme.
IIRC, latitudes 0-90 south are on the earth's surface, 91 thru 180 are in the Upside Down and 181 - 360 are in the Bizarro Dimension where time flows backwards

I had a weird dream that the AI bubble popped and everyone no longer trusted tech companies so we all started working without computers and phones again.

If I could flip one switch about collective human nature it would be this: whatever it is about us that makes "Sick, Sad World" get all the ratings while nobody can spare time or attention for "Healthy, Joyful World."

It's refreshing to see the proponents of Plagiarism Machines tacitly acknowledging that when it really counts, you have to rely on actual work by actual people, including when the work is "plagiarism."

Following that, if Firefox wanted to "address" that people are relying on LLMs, the correct response *should* be to put a giant warning along the lines of "You are visiting ChatGPT, a site which regularly lies and has been implicated in multiple suicides. Are you sure you wish to proceed?"

This appeal to popularity is like inventing a snack, hiring an army of goons to shove it down people's throats all day, and then acting like everyone should be impressed about how many people have eaten your new snack.
