I know the headline everyone's running with is "erotica" but "we have been able to mitigate the serious mental health issues" and "we are putting personality back in ChatGPT so it will act like a friend" are diametrically opposed statements

Chicago Tribune: Greeley, who was born at Illinois Masonic hospital and is adopted, carries a copy of her passport just in case she runs into federal agents. “I am Latina and I am a service worker,” Greeley said. “I fit the description of what they’re looking for now.” During the encounter, Greeley said they told her she “doesn’t look like” a Greeley. “They said this isn’t real, they kept telling me I’m lying, I’m a liar,” Greeley recalled. “I told them to look in the rest of my wallet, I have my credit cards, my insurance.”

Obama: "When you see an administration suggest that ordinary street crime is an insurrection or a terrorist act, that is a genuine effort to weaken how we have understood democracy."

Honestly very impressed by Newsmax, the Washington Times, and the Washington Examiner.

They deserve credit precisely because they’re standing up for journalistic principle notwithstanding their ideological inclination.

Argentina’s Economy Chief Says US Willing to Keep Buying Pesos President Javier Milei’s finance chief said the US Treasury’s backstop of Argentina’s peso is unflinching as the libertarian leader prepares to travel to Washington ahead of a crucial midterm vote.

Paying for healthcare might be a problem for people here, but folks will be happy to know that Argentina's right-wing nutjob president says he has an unlimited supply of dollars from Donald Trump www.bloomberg.com/news/article... (The government pays for healthcare in Argentina.)

It’s hard to study the minutes of the Constitutional Convention or the Federalist Papers and conclude the Founders wanted a president who could override the other two branches. If anything, their design of the executive branch feels like a way to institutionalize Washington’s aversion to power.

This is how Broligarchs differ from oligarchs of yore: the latter tried to hide their thievery; the Broligarchs trumpet their entitlement to steal as a natural right.

What he not saying is that his friends and cronies invested a fortune in Argentina since their guy Milei won, they stand to lose a big chunk of those fortunes the way things are going, and Argentina’s elections are in two weeks and we are tampering in them to bail Milei out.

Wow. Greg Bovino admits on camera that his agents can detain people if you look scared, change your demeanor, or grip a steering wheel too tight.

As his unmasked agents walk around with large guns to scare you, they may arrest you just for that — even if you're a U.S. citizen.

folks, youre not going to believe this but ive been reading revelations and the only way to keep the 7 seals secured and stave off the antichrist is to give me all your money

White House Disapproves of Machado’s Nobel, but Rubio Is a Big Supporter

The Trump White House denounced the Nobel committee's awarding of the peace prize to Venezuelan politician María Corina Machado. But Rubio is a big supporter and co-signed a letter last August to the committee saying she should win the prize. Our story: www.nytimes.com/2025/10/10/u...

Maria Corina Machado, Venezuelan Champion of Freedom, Wins the Nobel Peace Prize Maria Corina has proven herself to be an effective, well-organized, and savvy leader who has given Venezuelans reasons to hope that they will be free sooner rather than later. Her well-earned Nobel Pr...

From my colleague Ian Vasquez: Peace Nobelist Maria Corina Machado "is one of the world’s most admirable leaders... She [has] consistently and clearly articulated an [opposition] agenda to establish a liberal democracy—based on limited power, the rule of law, civil liberties, and a market economy."

Over 40% of corn grown in Indiana is used to make ethanol that cars burn. One acre of corn yields about 16,500 vehicle-miles per year of ethanol, which sounds high until you realize that one acre of solar yields about 2,700,000 vehicle-miles per year: 16,000% more driving for a given plot of land.
