I give up, Claude is conscious. Ergo AI developers must face imprisonment or execution for performing medical experiments on their living slave.

Beshear: We are building affordable housing in rural America. It looks like the average utility bill for each of those houses is going to be about $50 a month because we’re using solar panels. We’re embracing different parts of green energy in Appalachia.

Trump now blocking terror threat warnings because it makes him look bad.

β€œThey don’t want anything getting out that says what they’re doing in Iran is raising the threat level at home.”

So according to the WSJ a US Senator conspired with another country to manipulate the US into starting a war, am I getting this right

For those who have forgotten the past 40 years:

Tax cuts for the rich
...don’t trickle down

Boosting military spending
...doesn’t bring peace

Slashing regulations
...doesn’t create jobs

Folks, we’ve seen this all before.

In plain language. If you ban trans people, it is not because you HAVE to it is because you WANT to, which means you are transphobic, & no words are going to distract from that.

"I can't believe what you say because I see what you do."

Exclude us, we have 100% the right to call you a transphobe.

This is my actual objection. Our entire jobs have been transformed overnight into entirely different jobs, of far less social worth, and with zero relationship to the reason most of us got into them in the first place. All we want to do is contribute and AI billionaires are like HAHA NOPE.

Strong women don’t ask the powerful for permission.

They hold them accountable.

Elizabeth Warren proves it every day.

Elizabeth Warren didn’t come to Washington to play nice with billionaires.

She came to fight for the rest of us.

Not to BlueSky a joke but GENUINELY the army are generally anti conscription for exactly these reasons. Unless you just need cannon fodder it is not useful for them to have a bunch of unprepared, unwilling people hanging about the place. They NEED weird war nerds and lads with daddy issues.

MAGA dumbfucks have no idea that the Epstein files are full of witness testimony that Trump raped and murdered children, because Fox News never told them.

Kristi Noem is finally OUT just a day after I grilled her in @democrats-judiciary.house.gov.

This is a big win for accountabilityβ€”one that we all shareβ€”but the fight is not over.

We still need justice for ICE’s crimes. I’ll keep holding the new secretary’s feet to the fire.

i think lots of people underestimate how badly these β€œAI” companies want people to be unable to afford computers. they view personal computing as a roadblock to their desire for complete end-to-end centralization. the fact that their tech is putting hardware out of reach is not just a happy accident

To everyone who wants to raise awareness and get people to take action against censorship and bills that take away our rights, I want to say this very emphatically:

Include. Resources.

Because yelling is infinitely more useful when you're also showing people the next steps they can take

Apparently it's conservative now to criticize someone for having a Nazi SS tattoo for 16 years.

Here's what I believe: no more business as usual in the Senate. We shouldn't be voting to proceed to normal legislation until Republicans schedule a debate and a vote and on a declaration of war against Iran. Let's see if Trump has the votes to authorize war. I bet he doesn't.

While the McDonald’s CEO gets roasted for his awkward burger taste test...

McDonald’s is among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.

And McDonald's CEO recently raked in $18.2M β€” over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.

That should leave a bad taste in your mouth.

Not about Marathon, but one thing you learn real fast while teaching is that nobody has ever plagiarized once.

It's a pattern of behavior, and they get caught because they get comfortable doing it and keep getting away with it. Right up until they don't.

I think people have already forgotten that Concord was never a punching bag until it had already completely failed. Like there was no hate train there. Nobody even knew the game existed till journalists were like 'is there seriously only 500 people playing the new AAA Sony game on launch day'
