Had to doublecheck the date on this

I think we should allow Trump to choose Iran’s next leader as long as the rest of us can choose America’s. Because it’s clearly far too important a job to be left in the hands of Americans.

Caitlin KALINOWSKI over X I resigned from OpenAl. I care deeply about the Robotics team and the work we built together. This wasn't an easy call. Al has an important role in national security. But surveillance of Americans without judicial oversight and lethal autonomy without human authorization are lines that deserved more deliberation than they got. This was about principle, not people. I have deep respect for Sam and the team, and I'm proud of what we built together.

OpenAI head of robotics just resigned over company deal with the Pentagon saying…

“Surveillance of Americans without judicial oversight and lethal autonomy without human authorization are lines that deserved more deliberation than they got”

Spotted today at the Crufts Dog Show (in England)

Why was this story on the front page of the UK’s Daily Telegraph — but NOT America’s leading newspapers?

Benjamin Netanyahu and Vladimir Putin.

This is completely unhinged

Humanity heating planet faster than ever before, study finds Researchers identify sharp rise to about 0.35C every decade, after excluding natural fluctuations such as El Niño

Climate breakdown is occurring more rapidly with the heating rate almost doubling, according to research that excludes the effect of natural factors behind the latest scorching temperatures.

Periodic reminder that ICE does not just track and watch immigrants. They are collecting and storing information on us all.

there's so much bad in the world but there's also people who lift up and carry an elderly bat around every day so he can pretend he's flying again, and that's the part of the world I think is worth fighting for

The White House is transforming the Iran strikes into a meme war The White House is using memes that make light of violent combat in Iran, mixing footage of real missile strikes with clips from action films and video games.

Less than a week after an airstrike killed dozens of children at an Iranian elementary school, the White House posted a video of bombing footage mixed with clips from movies and video games.

Many online were outraged by what they said was a callous joke.

Oil up by $12 a barrel in less than 12 hours.

Gas prices skyrocketing.

Almost 100,000 jobs lost last month.

Another war in the Middle East.

Are we great again yet?

Ironically, Russian propaganda on Western platforms greatly contributed to bringing Trump and his psychopaths to power, and now those same people are whining because Trump is going after Western allies, Eastern allies, and even the so-called "neutral" ones. 😂

Screenshot of an X post by Acyn quoting Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt saying the president had a “feeling, again, based on fact,” that Iran was going to strike the United States. Below is a TV still of Leavitt speaking at a White House press briefing podium, with a news banner reading “BREAKING NEWS.”

We bombed a girls’ school and killed 175 kids based on his feelings?!

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.

Like clockwork.

Iceland locks in on date for EU referendum | Euractiv As a member of the European Economic Area, Iceland is already aligned with much of the bloc's legislation

Just announced: Iceland has urgently moved up its referendum to join the European Union - to 29 August.

A reminder: 🇮🇸 is in many ways already a non-voting 🇪🇺 member because of the EEA. This would give them voting power to shape the laws they have to follow.

Kristi should take some comfort that she didn’t end up like her poor dog for being crazy and out of control.

All of our living presidents who still have a sense of decency gathered to honor Rev. Jesse Jackson.

Respect recognizes respect.

Kamala Harris: "I predicted a lot about what's happening right now. I'm not here to say 'I told you so,' but we did see it coming."

Wait. They are releasing Epstein files to distract Americans from the war in Iran now?

Obama: "We are living in a time where it can be hard to hope. Each day we wake up to some new assault on our democratic institutions. Another setback to the idea of the rule of law ... but this man - Rev. Jesse Jackson - inspires us to take a harder path ... bc if we don't step up, nobody else will"

Today a 40-year old dream came to fruition and I finally got to actually ride my very own Fell pony: Lily has been at boarding school since weaning her foal in November being “started” (trained to be ridden) and today I went to collect her and have my first sit on her 😀

Sad mama dog reunites with her lost puppies. A dog mama named Cora ended up in a shelter after her owner had taken her babies away from her. Depressed, she wouldn’t move away from a corner, so The Marin Humane Society tracked down Cora’s puppies and reunited the family
