marjorie taylor greene couldnt handle a single week experiencing 1% of the harassment that someone like ilhan omar probably experiences every day, in significant part because of her. she is weak and a coward and will rot in hell imo

How AP News whitewashes genocide.

TESTING THE CEASEFIRE??

Israel is *BREAKING* the ceasefire. Do you really think this would be the headline if Hamas killed 24 Israelis?

AP doesn’t even have the integrity to say Israel killed Palestinians. “Are dead” is passive to avoid attributing liability.

Grand opening, grand closing.

X quietly disabled a new feature that showed which country an account was posting from when it revealed that lots of popular right wing MAGA accounts were being run from foreign countries like India and Nigeria.

Meet the AI workers who tell their friends and family to stay away from AI When the people making AI seem trustworthy are the ones who trust it the least, it shows that incentives for speed are overtaking safety, experts say

“AI workers said they distrust the models they work on because of a consistent emphasis on rapid turnaround time at the expense of quality.”

Happy Caturday. Here’s some toe beans

How many parts is that Lizza clapback gonna be?

On TV shows, we love to arc a villian — force the bad guy to team up with the good guys and follow that character on a path to redemption. It’s fun, but it’s fiction.

In real life, villains rarely arc. Racists stay racist. Monsters stay monsters. If someone says they’ve changed, be real suspicious.

In this case the door should hit the ass on the way out

And just like that… we’ve moved on from him threatening Democratic congresspeople with sedition and death.

Zohran Mamdani to release PSA video, "How to talk to your deranged racist MAGA uncle at Thanksgiving dinner."

Ladies and gentlemen... the weekend. (also: you are important and are not alone 🧡)

DM: The orange fascist lurks in his lair, hunched behind his massive desk, revelling in his stolen power. His acolytes hiss at you as you approach. What does your human bard do --
MAMDANI: Active perception check.
DM: ...that's a natural 20
MAMDANI: Let's fucking go. <FLUTE TRILL>

SCHUMER: I rolled a one
JEFFRIES: I rolled a one
MAMDANI Fuck <FLUTE TRILL> So I'm gonna bring it all myself HEY

After Midnight Mass came out, I remember reading comments online from folk saying the Sheriff was playing the victim card, or that Islamophobia isn’t a thing anymore etc…

And then Zohran Mamdani enters the chat in 2025 and is greeted with abhorrent Islamophobia & 9/11 jibes.

Well well well…

We hereby retire the “record scratch-Freeze frame-You may be wondering how I got here” meme.

It’s over. It will never be topped by this image.

Zorhan Mamdani stands next to a seated Trump as Trump looks up lovingly at Mamdani in a way he's never looked at his own wife. It's disturbing.

Trump looks like a schoolgirl seeing her crush. A Disney character would say he's twitterpated even.

It would be the hilarious icing on the cake if Trump's public fawning over Mamdani is what finally pushes his base over the edge

Not only has he never looked at Don Jr. or Eric like this, he’s never been so happy to bask in JD Vance’s presence either.

He looks giddy. JOYFUL even.

Is Zohran a witch

What the hell is going on in this photo? Mamdani hasn't ordered anyone to be killed with a bonesaw (unless I've missed a vital piece of information)

Predatory Opt-Out Scheme ClaimsHero Targets Anthropic Settlement Participants: What Authors Need to Know - The Authors Guild In recent weeks, a third-party law firm, ClaimsHero, has launched an aggressive online campaign urging authors to opt out of the Bartz v. Anthropic copyright settlement. ClaimsHero—which has no litiga...

Authors beware: ClaimsHero is urging authors to opt out of the Anthropic settlement in order to file their own separate lawsuit. Except this outfit has no federal or state court experience with class-action suits. And the judge has called them a fraud.

Matthew McConaughey and Michael Caine sign voice deal with AI company The voices of the Oscar-winning actors can now be used to create AI-generated versions in a new deal with ElevenLabs

Do NOT license your voice to ElevenLabs.

Their highest-paid actor made $30k last year. Sounds a lot, but that’s from 1.2 bn paid uses - $0.000025 per job. ElevenLabs charge 20 cents per 1,000 words. So they’re making at least 8,000 times what their artists are.

Don't buy Starbucks at any location for the duration of the strike

@sbworkersunited.org have launched the biggest open-ended strike in Starbucks history, fighting for fair wages and against unfair labor practices. We all need to stand in solidarity with striking workers. DON'T BUY STARBUCKS FOR THE DURATION OF THE STRIKE. #NoContractNoCoffee

I am haunted by the thought that they simply wanted to legitimize what has long been "the norm." 🤔

"A Marine who served from 1982 to 2010 said extremist tattoos, swastikas and other Nazi memorabilia were common in barracks and on wall lockers." 👇

So apparently a lot of female celebrities are extremely skinny right now, reminding people of the "heroin chic" beauty standard of the 90s.

I'm not going to share pictures - I feel uncomfortable being like "look at these bodies, they're bad" even when what I'm critiquing is not the bodies

Reconciliation without reparation is one of supremacy's greatest sabotages of the act of repair. Whenever abuse is exposed, it offers free exoneration to the abuser at the expense of the abused, and calls it redemption. It's the traditional and popular response to abuse in our supremacist society.

we gotta keep hammering over and over again just how fucking unpopular this guy is with every institution and every person in a position of power

people hate him and people will hate you for capitulating to him

"Students are afraid to fail, and AI presents itself as a savior. But what we learn from history is that progress requires failure. It requires reflection. Students are not just undermining their ability to learn, but to someday lead."

If you have the Gmail "promotions" "social" tabs -- Google is training their AI by reading your e-mails.
Go to Settings and turn off Smart Features if you don't want them training their AI off of your e-mails. It'll get rid of tabs for some reason (I didn't like them anyway).

A lot of you need to get over your fear of impolite language. We’re dealing with people who want to kill you. It is not possible to say something too cruel about them.

It will never sit right with me the sheer amount of people who have chosen to live in an alternate reality where their lives are measurably worst, rather than admit that they were lied to by the GOP.
