Hegseth just shot down a DHS drone with a laser because he thought it belonged to a Mexican cartel, but let’s let him preside over a radical shift to unrestrained AI on our most advanced weapons systems. What could go wrong?

It Can Now Be Plainly Said: Trump Is Planning a November Coup d’État During the campaign, it was kind of hard to picture the specifics of how Trump might pull such a thing off. Alas, it’s getting less hypothetical by the week.

It Can Now Be Plainly Said: Trump Is Planning a November Coup d’État

A digital drawing of author Maia Kobabe, a white nonbinary person with short brown hair wearing a patterned blue shirt, who scowls while holding up a copy of eir book GENDER QUEER: A MEMOIR. Maia is saying: H.R. 7661 is a national book banning bill which seeks to remove any book that "involves gender dysphoria or transgenderism" from all public schools in the US. This would ban my books, and any other book with trans themes, from public schools. PLEASE call your House Reps and say: NO ON H.R. 7661!

Anthropic makes it clear that yes, the Trump & Hegseth tantrum is because they’re mad they wouldn’t do mass surveillance of Americans or fully autonomous killer robots.

Star Trek Voyager scene. Seven of Nine (tertiary adjunct of unimatrix 01) is pictured. She has a dolphin shaped metal robotic implant around her left eye because she is a borgs. Closed caption reads, "Fun will now commence."

It's the weekend, baby

The second you leave this country for even a few days, you realize the place you call home is decaying at an almost exponential pace. The realization that you don't have to live like this is stark, and that nobody in power is taking tangible actions to fix it in your lifetime is even starker.

After we landed in the new place, we gave the kids the GPS unit. So we could find them in the new neighborhood while we were still learning the area.

To be clear, Kansas Republicans rushed through a confusing and disastrous bill, created a panic, and wasted untold number of tax dollars all to target 300 out of the nearly 3 million people in the state.

if you believe in any form of free enterprise at all, the idea that the Pentagon can not only cut off your contract but designate you a supply chain risk and prevent other companies from buying from you just because you won't build killbots for the government should be terrifying

My company at the time used a moving service, but i did look into pods. Either way, getting a GPS tracking unit is a must. We used Logistimatics. It is a monthly service, but super handy in tracking precisely was as it traveled on the big rig. I put it in a dresser. Highly recommend.

Federal judge in Minnesota threatens criminal contempt over ICE noncompliance Chief Judge Patrick Schiltz warned that “one way or another” U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement will comply with court orders.

The chief federal judge in Minnesota has threatened to pursue criminal contempt charges against ICE and the state's top federal prosecutor if they don't comply with court orders in scores of immigration cases.

At least 97 violations involving 66 different cases have been documented.

every single piece of news in america is like ok we never did bread. but we're cancelling the circuses

if you feel like this it may not be because you're old, it may be because you don't want your enjoyment to be beholden to the demands of a content schedule or engagement retention strategies

You sound like an unhinged person if you in plain words describe what’s happening, but the Trump admin demanded Anthropic’s AI be able to kill things for it w/out human approval and also do mass surveillance.

Anthropic said no, and now the admin is trying to destroy the company in retaliation.

and this is why it is so beyond important that we do not take that fucking bait.

do not, ever, ever ever go in on this.

This business model cannot be rewarded. Do not ever do remote computing. I'm so serious. Do not do it! use a fucking potato computer if you have to! DON'T REMOTE COMPUTE EVER

Screenshot of an X post by New York City Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani stating he had a productive meeting with President Trump and looks forward to building more housing in NYC. The embedded image shows Mamdani standing beside Trump in the Oval Office. Trump is seated at the Resolute Desk, smiling and holding up New York Daily News front pages, with U.S. flags and military service flags visible behind them.

Mamdani knows how to please a stupid vain leader while getting his demands met.

There is no amount of money in the world that would lead me to fight a Vietnamese refugee that grew up in Louisiana

(Also I really want to try a Korean style Po’ Boy)

The congressional switchboard number is (202) 224-3121. Put it in your cell phone. Use it. If you're not calling at least once a week, you're not doing your part.

So let’s think about this.

A private company refused - on principle - to yield to the government’s demands.

The government then cancelled its contracts with the company and has set about destroying it

On February 27, 1989, Laura Palmer's funeral took place.

REV. KING: “If Rep. Fritts wants to lead a Christ-First Tennessee, he should reexamine Christ’s teachings… You simply cannot call yourself “pro-life” if your response to those who have abortions is the death penalty.”

Judge Quraishi says that if ICE keeps arresting people and detaining them without bond under the legal theory that has been rejected by hundreds of judges, and any of those cases come across his bench, he'll immediately order DHS and DOJ personnel hauled into court to explain themselves.

im going to be honest kitten the fascist administrative state is kind of hyperfocused on mommy right now and it's stressing her out a little bit

Truly astounding as a trans person to watch your community be told we're not worthy of consideration by Democrats on Monday, be told to be silent and grateful all of Tuesday, and by Wednesday an entire state has criminalized trans citizens' existence.
