There are two basilisks inside you. One thinks AI will rise and punish everyone who didnβt collaborate in its creation and the other believes AI will rise and punish everyone who abused it as an AI girlfriend
06.08.2025 00:40 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Crises drive people to support authoritarian rule. Autocrats are incentivized to create crises either through neglect or through pure invention. Trumpβs Administration is doing both
08.07.2025 00:04 β π 19 π 0 π¬ 2 π 0We donβt want anyone to die. Thatβs why we voted for Harris!
18.05.2025 03:25 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Itβs not legal. The Constitution clearly ascribes budgeting to Congress and Congress alone
26.04.2025 20:22 β π 4 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0AmeriCorps VISTA was founded as the domestic equivalent to Peace Corps and it was indeed an idea originally envisioned by JFK. The rest of AmeriCorps has its origins in George HW Bushβs Points of Light movement. National service has always been bipartisan and loved by Republicans and Democrats alike
15.04.2025 23:39 β π 21 π 2 π¬ 0 π 0We need an answer for this. So far there are only reports coming from NCCC because it is a residential program but it stands to reason every program is threatened
15.04.2025 23:33 β π 3 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0#Americorps NCCC is finished thanks to the Trump administration. Members being sent home immediately. Some of them donβt have places to live right now, none of them have jobs lined up before fall at the earliest. The US government hates its citizens.
15.04.2025 19:14 β π 9 π 3 π¬ 2 π 1Republicans have pushed to add flights to DCA that it clearly cannot accommodate. And theyβve made dangerous cuts at the FAA. Do they not even care about their own lives and safety?
10.04.2025 21:52 β π 8 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0How do they not understand that Target is Walmart for people who donβt want to support Walmart? If they *supposedly* want hiring on merit then they need to start firing these CEOs

14.02.2025 21:56 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0The video of RFK Jr just pounding back methylene blue is wild. Even true believers were like βtwo pipettes full?!?β That manβs stool looks like Gargamel finally managed to binge on a full villageβs worth of Smurf stew

Dem strategists: βWe must conserve our political capital even if people all around the world die π€ so sadβ¦β
Give me a break. If Dems donβt fight the first fight then theyβve already resigned themselves to being controlled opposition in a one-party state going forward
βFirst they came for the children dying of AIDs but we didnβt want to spend the political capital yetβ
05.02.2025 06:56 β π 26 π 3 π¬ 1 π 0They are not understanding the situation at all. This isnβt a βconserve your political capitalβ situation, this is an accelerating train.
