UPDATE: It just chastised everyone in the meeting…

“ With roughly 9 minutes left, please focus on clarifying, and addressing the following before time is up…”

Like… fuck you, copilot snitch ass bitch.

I’m in a meeting and the person who set the meeting activated an AI “Facilitator” in Teams.

Mid-meeting it posted an update in chat: “The meeting is at its midpoint and the conversation is focused and moving forward.”

As always, I find AI to be very overlord-ish.

Racist ass Supreme Court “doesn’t see color”

Supreme Court seems inclined to limit race-based electoral districts under the Voting Rights Act
• On Wednesday, the U.S. Supreme Court seemed inclined to strike down a Black majority congressional district in Louisiana because it relied heavily on race as protesters gathered outside.
• After the legislature drew a new map to add a second majority-Black district, a group of white voters sued, and the court expanded the case with its June reargument request this year.
• Racially polarized voting in Louisiana exceeds 84%, which judges noted as central to Section 2 claims, while Chief Justice John Roberts described the snake district as stretching more than 200 miles.
• A quick ruling could allow Louisiana and other states time to redraw maps ahead of next year's congressional election, with Fair Fight and Black Voters Matter warning Republicans could gain 19 to 27 seats.
• If Section 2 is dismantled, removing limits would let Southern and GOP-controlled states redraw districts without federal constraints, enabling extreme partisan gerrymandering nationwide.

Did you know… the area of the brain that senses sexual pleasure is VERY close to the area of the brain that senses your feet?

No notes

Robin Williams' daughter, Zelda Williams, also recently slammed people who are making Al-generated videos of her late father, calling the clips "gross." She added, "To watch the legacies of real people be condensed down to 'this vaguely looks and sounds like them so that's enough, just so other people can churn out horrible TikTok slop pup-peteering them is maddening. You're not making art, you're making disgusting, over-processed hotdogs out of the lives of human beings, out of the history of art and music, and then shoving them down someone else's throat hoping they'll give you a little thumbs up and like it."
