Hey FIFA, get off your corrupt ass and actually do something for your member confederations

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.

I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

I broke the story yesterday that masked ICE agents (not DOJ) were removing items including a personal computer from the home of Jonathan Ross, the ICE agent who shot Renee Good. I have yet to see a single news outlet cover this or an elected official even acknowledge it.

Screenshot of a post on X by Christopher Webb (@cweb…) stating that Emily Heller, described as an eyewitness, is speaking out to “set the record straight.” The post says officers were yelling at Renee Nicole Good to “Move, move, move,” and questions why she was then shot multiple times, adding that Noem and Trump branded her a domestic terrorist. Below the text is a video still from MSNBC showing a woman with short brown hair speaking on camera in an office-like room with filing cabinets and equipment behind her. A “BREAKING NEWS” banner appears at the bottom, along with “ALL IN with Chris Hayes,” a timestamp of 2:49, and an MSNBC logo.

The White House maligned Renee Good and brazenly lied about what actually happened. We need hearings and a full investigation now.

Charlottesville, remember Heather Heyer

The IRS shut down its direct filing program for 2026, but Free File, Fillable Forms, MilTax, and some private tools remain—if you know where to look. Here’s how to navigate the free options still available for taxpayers.

Every Democrat running for office needs to promise investigations and full prosecutions from top to bottom, remove its funding bloat then break up the agency and distribute its core remaining useful functions across other agencies.

Watching THE GREEN KNIGHT again

Gotta say, as a survivor, I’m not super loving this thing where the Department of Justice is running a cover-up of evidence the President sexually abused minors.

I feel like I would notice this one coming down the chimney.

The confusion and conflation of ‘generative ai that is built on stolen artwork’ and ‘machine learning, character behaviour modelling and proc gen’ is intentional on the part of the grifters peddling the former. They benefit from murkiness of classification, because the latter predates their bollocks

The most important story many aren't talking about: we've become an airline style economy in which 10% of us enjoy First Class, responsible for 50% of the consumption, while the other 90% of Americans are responsible for the other 50%. It's not only unsustainable, but collapsing as you read this.

tl;dr: GenAI and game design concepts traditionally referred to as "AI" (enemy behaviors, pathfinding, etc.) are not the same thing, and I'm on my knees begging people to learn the difference, lest we see more bullshit claims like what The Escapist put out re: Blue Prince.

Truly insane that the networks took this speech live after refusing to do the same for Biden in 2022

perhaps going to be the most poorly aged tweet of all time soon

Boromir from THE LORD OF THE RINGS, holding The One Ring. He thought he could use it for good, but everything done with the ring turns to evil. He was one of the mightiest warriors of middle earth, and he could not resist its powers. Others even mightier fell to the ring. Do you think you are stronger than them? The One Ring is generative AI.

Techbros seem to love Tolkien, so here's an analogy to help you understand what genAI is.

GenAI is The One Ring. You think your use is justified, b/c you don't have evil in your heart.

But it came from evil, it is intended for evil purpose, & anything you do with it will be twisted to that end.

Puberty blockers: why politicians overriding doctors sets a dangerous precedent The government’s ban on puberty blockers undermines clinical expertise and targets trans youth with a policy that lacks evidence, consistency and fairness.

This is very good. Clear, calm, factual, and devastating for proponents of bans on puberty blockers for trans youth.

Christine Pelosi & @sfpelosi This Epstein case is horrific and the young women deserve justice. It is quite likely that some of our faves are implicated but we must follow the facts and let the chips fall where they may - whether on Republicans or Democrats. #WeSaidEnough #MeToo Jeffrey Epstein Arrested for Sex Trafficking of Minors From thedailybeast.com 8:05 PM • Jul 6, 2019

They knew. They all did

NEW: @propublica.org investigated the Chicago apartment raid where kids were zip-tied and citizens detained for hours. They find:

- NONE of the arrested were criminally charged
- NO evidence the building was "filled with TdA terrorists."
- ZERO legitimate reason for DHS to rappel from a Blackhawk.

This is a core element of conservative philosophy: If a single "undeserving" person is getting a government benefit, the answer is to take it away from millions.*

*Offer does not apply to tax loopholes or any other benefit enjoyed by the wealthy

Removing a monument honoring Black US soldiers has nothing to do with DEI. It’s erasure of history and it’s straight-up racism.

One problem with sex pests operating with impunity for decades is that they will assume impunity for the rest of time. They are relatively easy to catch. The problem lies with the political will to create consequences for them.

Until we have replicators, we will need wealth redistribution.
