Quads, VTOL, even single motor push/pull are all proven winners. Why base your tiny design on something bigger that just crashes on the reg all on its own?

Maybe don’t name a thing for a sword that breaks, I dunno

A Babson College student wanted to surprise her family for Thanksgiving. She was deported instead. - The Boston Globe Any Lucia Lopez Belloza was at Logan to catch a flight to Texas when immigration authorities detained her as she was about to board the plane.

I feel much safer today knowing that we deported a Babson College student back to a country where she hasn't lived since childhood.

She wasn't even flying internationally. She was flying to Texas.

Judge Dismisses Georgia Election Interference Case Against Trump

Unavoidable conclusion: SCOTUS has put 1 man in America above the law & created a king. Not the first time a case has been decided wrong. The fix for democracy lies, as it did in Dred Scott, with fixing a broken decision. Hopefully this one won’t require a civil war. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/26/u...

Yep. I've been waiting for EU spooks to start reminding Trump that they've got their own capabilities.

It's like something structural has happened to people's brain's and now many millions of us are incredibly vulnerable and have terrible judgement/are detached from reality.

Going to be some good fires this year

am I even awake right now?

Yes, HID headlights are very bright but the bigger problem is the proliferation of gargantuan vehicles with 5’+ hood heights so that if you’re driving a normal sized car their headlights are at your eye level rather than seat level like they’re supposed to be.

You will not be mourned.

one of the more bleak aspects of ai chatbots is it’s starting to blow up real marriages

Looks like another show of force, would expect these to ramp up quite a bit this week for possible actual strikes happening next week.

Man in spacesuit reading a card with the text, "the horrors persist, but so do I".

Normalize saying this instead of, "𝙡𝙞𝙫𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙙𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙢".

A major sign of things getting dire in DC is when House members start breaking kayfabe like this. It's really, REALLY not fun to be a minority caucus member under a lame duck president. A cushy board seat or academic chairmanship sounds a LOT better and the race for the exits is obvious.

bring back shame...and consequences

Sign for a "Friend" ad defaced with graffiti reading "AI doesn't care if you live or die."

Sign for a "Friend" ad defaced with graffiti reading "talk to humans"

Sign for a "Friend" ad defaced with graffiti reading "Fuck this!"

Sign for a "Friend" ad defaced with graffiti reading "you don't have to accept this future."

Yesterday my partner and I counted all the ads along Chicago's Brown Line for "Friend," a company selling an AI chatbot pendant, and tallied how many of those ads were defaced.

Still working on a longer piece on this, but here's the quick and dirty: we counted 104 "Friend" ads total, 42 defaced.

Into the Twilight of the Trump Era What becomes of MAGA as Trump’s hold over the movement is weakening, his ability to integrate its different factions waning? A deep dive into the state of the fever swamp

Sunday evening reading: I wrote about the state of the fever swamp.

What becomes of MAGA as Trump’s hold over the movement is weakening, his ability to integrate its different factions is waning?

Into the Twilight of the Trump Era:

What if the real “great replacement” was the human obsolescence project behind the AI systems produced by the reactionary tech oligarchs who have used their social media platforms to get the public to buy into the racist and Islamophobic “great replacement theory?”

If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

"Don't break bread with the people you cover" is what I was taught.

It was almost like the rule for not eating in the land of the dead or in Faerie - you share a meal, you now have a connection; you've accepted a kinship.

One paper I worked for wouldn't let us take as much as a glass of water.

Kinda sorta

He's the kind of old fart who will rant about "the god damn Mexicans ruining the country" and then when the family goes out to dinner at a Mexican restaurant he'll effusively praise the servers and leave a huge tip.

Is "COUCH" Erika Kirk's secret service code name?

It’s almost as if America’s oligarchs think democracy poses a major threat to their power and hence needs to be acquired like one buys a business competitor, so as to neutralize them.

I second this

This is Trump trying to rile up the whackos in his base to do violence.
He's not really trying assert as a legal matter that the government should execute members of Congress who advocate the military obey military law and the Constitution. He's trying to get Bubba Cousinfucker to do violent shit.

Meet the veteran who chases ICE on a scooter Clifford “Buzz” Grambo patrols the streets of Baltimore to keep his neighbors safe—and make federal agents uncomfortable.

“I want their morale as low as possible because a team with low morale is ineffective.”

Meet the veteran who chases ICE on a scooter

How far back do you want to go? Since he might have inherited the operation from ghislaine's double agent father there's a real chance this pedo society goes back to at least the 70s.

Can’t believe the whole country has to suffer through the return of Dickensian childhood diseases because the worst, most ignorant attention-demanders decided other people’s expertise makes them feel bad
