The problem is almost nobody fucking asked for or wants AI, yet now it's in everything. No, I don't want an AI summary of my Google search. No, I don't want AI on my Zoom call while it's happening. Fuck off. Get out of my face. It's smothering me and thinks that's love. It makes me hate it more.

All of the companies that make the software I use are increasing their prices, to account for an "investment" in AI.

I'm sat here imagining how my clients would feel if I added 30% to each invoice, because I "really got into gambling".

Another great thing here is the city encouraging businesses to create โ€œemployee-onlyโ€œ areas, a subtlety to protect workers from ICE. ICE can enter โ€œpublicโ€ areas like restaurant seating areas, but need a judicial warrant for places that are off-limits to the public, like kitchens and break rooms.

Womenโ€™s Institute will no longer accept trans women as members from April Exclusive: CEO says decision taken with โ€˜utmost regret and sadnessโ€™ after supreme court ruling on definition of a woman

Trans women has been welcomed at the Women's Institute since the 1970s and one member is in her 80's and has been a member for decades. This is pure bigotry pushed by legal threats backed monetarily by JK Rowling.

The difference between the people Trump is turning on us from ICE vs the Nat Guard is that the Nat Guard signed a contract during very different times & are obligated to obey orders.

Those motherfuckers in ICE voluntarily chose THIS job, THIS year, precisely knowing it would demand violent cruelty.

Democrats need to channel their inner Sicilian to stop Trump from rigging 2026 midterms!
YouTube video by The Dean Obeidallah Show Democrats need to channel their inner Sicilian to stop Trump from rigging 2026 midterms!

Trump has been quietly targeting the Democratic infrastructure with his DOJ going after Act Blue, Indivisible and other ways we organize. Trump is trying to rig the 2026 election right in front of us. We need Democrats--esp AGs-to take steps now to stop this! My Daily Dean youtu.be/tbtBQaDwvxs?...

trump is the president in the sense that he holds the office but he very clearly isn't the president in the sense that he has basically relieved himself of its duties

The reason why I detest AIPAC is that they convinced the world that any mention of Netanyahu or Genocide is antisemitic . They have decided that any dissent about murdering Palestinians is antisemitic.

It is not antisemitic to want a country to stop killing children or wanting Netanyahu arrested.

One Afghan immigrant shoots two National Guard members, MAGA insists that all immigration from "Third World" (Read: Brown countries) is immediately and permanently halted.
Young white American males gun down dozens of school children each year, MAGA insists we make it easier for them to get guns.

And notice: 11 starsโ€”the number of states in the Confederacy. โ€œAmericanismโ€ is the new fascism, as predicted.
