Sign that says “Immigrants welcome, ICE NOT/ Free Palestine” on the front of the Astoria Food Pantry in Queens.

Please consider giving to the Astoria Food Pantry, which serves immigrants in Queens, many of whom have been prevented from going to work because of fear of ICE raids. The line of those waiting for food was down the block when I passed by today. www.astoriafoodpantry.com/donate-money...

the web series and the show... just beautiful slice of life stuff with fun characters and quirks

chatgpt, am i the greatest hunter in the whole world? is it true that no beast alive stands a chance against me? and no girl for that matter?

I kinda think the way people use ChatGPT is sort of aspirational because it seems to emulate the way rich people have sycophants lying to them all the time until they lose touch with reality and also their entire minds

even if this were true... he's really just saying "I forced them into a kickback to oil and gas shareholders and I'm making sure the companies that gave me money can sell more of their shit elsewhere"

I wouldn't call this vandalism, looks like a spray-paint-involved art event using more factual accuracy than the NYT has ever printed

Now that it has been 100 degrees 5 days in a row I can say for sure adding the AI box to the top of every Google search that reads the rest of the Google search was 100% worth it

is this metaverse guy saying something?

We’re three decades past the resounding failure of abstinence only sex education and yet too many so-called progressives still buy into the fundamentally wrong idea that we protect kids by keeping them ignorant through censorship rather than empowering them with information

Every blue-haired they/them liberal arts grad living in NYC is tougher than this sad little bitch.
