New Meta AI god’s hot shit analysis of firing people: “By reducing the size of our team, fewer conversations will be required to make a decision, and each person will be more load-bearing and have more scope and impact,” Mr. Wang wrote in the memo circulated to employees.

Will this Epstein story push the Epstein story out of the papers?

Thinking is one sided?

This is one of the ones I read and think, “Nah this can’t be true.”

But it is.

There are more every day.

I don't like everything pumpkin (pies and Jacks only pls) but heartily agree with this broad sentiment.

“Mom, what’s for Thanksgiving?”

Perfect-ly done…

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 84th day out of the last 96.

12 days of work in over 3 months.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

I’m thinking Confederate statues and other obnoxiouses can now be torn down without planning or historical approvals. Using private money.

With the East Wing as precedent, tearing down Confederate statues and other obnoxious monuments can now be done without planning or historical approvals. Private money can be used in this endeavor. Who wants to start a Kickstarter?

I could not be prouder that my law firm is currently litigating 60 voting, election and redistricting cases in 30 states. Even as large law firms bow down, we continue to fight for democracy every single day.

Tomorrow I start playing Canadian things. Any suggestions?

You’re giving me history I already know. I want the sourcing on the “new drop” in your GIF. Old stuff isn’t news, says the journalist of 40 years.

You published, you source. Your responsibility when playing the GIF game.
