Eh, with AI it's super easy to clone a voice.

Don't get me wrong, he's probably the most thin skinned person in the history of America, but I suspect that his brain isn't in a state for him to function well enough to even remember that C-SPAN is a thing.

Congress will vote to lower the age to prosecute minors as adults from 16 down to 14 in DC.

Let me get this straight:

Congress wants to prosecute 14 yr. olds as adults, but they don’t want to prosecute adults who sexually abuse 14 year olds?

Release the Epstein files.

What about the subways?

HELL YEAH

The news media is utterly failing to do their job. They need to be hounding Congress & the "president"* about how so much of what Trump is doing is impeachable. Both Congress & Trump feel shame but the media isn't shaming them.
Journalists: if the USG scares you, quit your job

*he's not a president

"Pay the consequences," Trump? Since when do you pay anyone?

It's almost like humans can't be trusted to be decent to each other. At least the exposed data hasn't been exploited yet.

Feedback for @wired.com: I don't think they are "criminals" until they are convicted of a crime. Until then, they're just people or potential or alleged thieves.

Why does no one consider a third option: that WBD should not get bought by anyone? Warner Bros is one of the most storied (literally & figuratively) movie studios that has ever existed. It should be able to survive on its own based on its century of content. Unless the current boss is incompetent.

It's fairly easy to accept people as who they are. You can judge them all you want in your mind but, if you have morals, you know that respecting other people's identity is as important as everyone respecting yours. Look up the #GoldenRule if you disagree.

I still remember when I saw my first trans person (that I recognized as trans, at least) it was around 2000ish and seeing her felt like I'd just stepped on a rounded Lego piece. I just thought "Oh, OK." and since then, it's never felt any different than looking at anyone else bc I'M NOT A COWARD.

Sounds possible to me!

Wow. Captain Rex would not share that sentiment.

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism.

We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

With New Momentum, Republican States Push Broader Limits for Trans Americans In states that once focused mainly on health care and sports for transgender minors, debates now revolve around the validity of transgender identity.

The subheadline on this NYT piece is going to turn me into the Joker.

Like... this... is exactly what trans people have been saying was going to happen for years.

In an allegedly free country you're not allowed to be who you are?!? FTS.

Humanity is facing huge threats and they're worried about people who pose zero threat to anyone.

Fascism always comes for those with the least societal protection...if it is allowed to.

Can he even do *that,* tho'?

It's funny how things have changed so dramatically since the first season of Paradise. We had a president like the one in the show back then. Now we have a president more like the bad guy in the show. Though Trump is way worse and way more dumb.

Rewatching the first season of Hulu's #Paradise starring #SterlingKBrown. I can't express how much of a fan I am of this show. The first ep is probably one of the best first eps I've ever seen. The acting, the writing, even the music is so well done. Season 2 starts 2/23!

I'm starting to feel bad for Trump's parents. No wonder they were so sh!tty to him! Dude! The SCOTUS followed the law (for once)! Just put your headphones on, crank up The Smiths and STFU like a good whiny brat should do!

I hate AI but could that be a good use of it? Have it not focused on anything else but determining facts?

Snopes is great but "real time" they are not.

Ah so *they* should be embarrassed? You never think about how YOU should be embarrassed though, do you?

So many leaders laughing at you behind your back.

SCOTUS gave you near complete immunity from prosecution and you're going to throw them under a bus?

Can't wait to see how SCOTUS reacts to that!

Eh, based on Trump's crazy low polling numbers, it's clear most of us are smart enough. It's actually our government that is corrupt AND dumb because they think most of us can't see what's happening. We definitely can. Whether we'll be able to do anything about it remains to be seen.

Pair Foint! A ipologize!

AND COMING FROM BEHIND TO OVERTAKE THE LEADER AS NUMBER ONE PHRASE IN THE HISTORY OF POLITICS IN AMERICA, *IS* *THE* "EPSTEIN FIIIIILES"!

In this case, I believe the technical term is drain bamage... 🥴

You show a photo of probably the only show with a black man in the lead but don't mention the name of the show.

Just a friendly reminder that it's still Black History Month. I mean, any month of the year is a good time to help people find great content featuring black performers. #JustSayin

I love how Karoline is always in the background with her little impish smile. I wonder what she's got on her mind to inspire that smile.🤔

Did they hire ex-ICE agents? Nice to see they're now brave enough to go mask-free!

Dang, that is pretty awesome! I wish they'd have saved that somehow so it could be appreciated by future American citizens.

Or whom ever is interested in history if there are no more American citizens.
