I don't like him personally, but David Simon on AI is the final word on the subject.

Read this thread for a frankly breathtaking example of the utter garbage you get when Techbrahs try their hand at law.

Although if you say "I have an issue that's important to me, huh, I guess I will try Vibe Lawyering," I am basically ok with whatever happens to you.

I will never not repost this

(Sound on for maximum effect)

It's one thing to be politically divided into red states and blue states. We are now being militarily divided into red states and blue states. It's crossing the Rubicon, a bright-red flashing warning that the constitutional order is coming unglued, in a way that will have monumental consequences. /x

These disconnects always reveal how the point of algorithmic culture, recommender algorithms, and now “AI”, isn’t to give you agency or help you find more of what you want; it’s to influence your behavior and attitudes towards what the people running the algorithms want. Programmable people.

In addition to just making stuff up because they know their propaganda targets won’t investigate it

To be clear, I don’t think the fact that the Japanese police are kind of goofy and project a PR image that is so laughably far from “tough on crime” means that cops are suddenly good in any circumstance lol

This is their mascot

Tough on crime lmao the Japanese police force is the cuddliest on the planet

"you are taking in the human centipede of content from the very end of the line" is such a good way of describing AI

wait it's possible to move from pilot studies to permanent implementation of basic income? please tell everyone except Andrew Yang about this

Never let these thugs know a moment a peace and see how tough they turn out to be

DEI for racists and schoolyard bullies

Younger veteran: "How old are you, man?"

Older veteran: “87.”

Younger veteran: “Out here getting arrested, raising hell at 87.”

Older veteran: “It’s just beginning.”

actually our AI programs are like people so its racist to say you don't like them. anyway would you like to buy one

The fact that there are *multiple* law professors falling over themselves to be Trump’s Carl Schmitt ought to firmly dispel the notion that the academy systematically excludes conservatives from its ranks.

really should get around to writing my take that "AI uprising/robot uprising" fiction is just barely sublimated fear of domestic slave revolt

Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

Super excited for a new American Golden Age of Minstrelsy

We're not at war with Venezuela, these boats are many hundreds of lines from our waters, much less our shores, there is no threat, this is just murder.

I really do think everyone from the SecDef to the guy who pushed the button should be tried for murder on this.

This ostentatious Christian with the big cross around her neck is really saying that people who cannot prove their citizenship in an emergency room should be left on the sidewalk to die. And that's what she believes.

We're at the "secret police disappearing elected officials representing the opposition" stage of fascist gallop, fyi

Is it just impossible to run a social media site without werewolfing into Elon Musk or something

Call for impeachment then.

1. This is one of the most insane statements ever delivered by a presidential spokesperson in U.S. history. Totally disconnected from reality.

2. There is either going to be a civil war or abject Democratic surrender to autocracy. They are telling this you, to your face, in explicit terms.

The ultimate problem with the "working class" umbrella is that it has become equated with "ignorance" and "culturally insular", which is frankly an insult to the swaths of laborers who are educated, open-minded, generous, & understand the real barriers to class mobility aren't ability or virtue.

Rape cult

If you are playing soccer, and you're adhering to the rules of the game, and the other team suddenly closed fist breaks your nose and the ref doesn't red card them, honorably adhering to the rules of soccer after that does not make you a better person. The games over, start breaking noses back.

I for one am game for that
