The price of cocaine has dropped because BP/ICE is occupying cities instead of patrolling the border.

This is terrorism. Abolition of ICE and DHS is not enough.

(Photos by Anthony Vasquez, Chicago Sun-Times.)

A trio of cowardly, pathetic ICE agents hold a terrified man at gunpoint. The BORTAC patch, by the way, means Border Patrol Technical Unit.

Worthless lumps (ICE agents) pin down an unarmed, young Black man.

A domestic terrorism (ICE agent) lobs a canister of gas directly at an unarmed man trying to film the chaos on his phone

they had Boban on ESPN to talk about Luka and I just really gotta remind you of this amazing image (LUKA IS 6'6")

Boban hugging Luka from the side as they're seated on the Mavs bench (sorry for the twist of the knife, Mavs fans, but you have a new great white hope now. you should probably still run Nico out of town and burn his house down though)

Boban makes Luka look like a tiny baby man

She's crap. There's a reason Schumer pressured her to run against Platner.

Based on the video shared by Univision (they've paired it with overhead from ABC), today's attack might be the most chemical gas we've seen feds launch into a neighborhood so far. The clouds are enormous/that's a lot of canisters. Completely engulfing cars and homes.

Seriously, no operational security from these lib influencers.

Voices from the Left Podcast 🌹 @dystopiangrift.bsky.social · 17h

I hope no one is replying to this earnestly. If you care about operational security for you and your fellow protestors, don't post anything online about it.

🚨 The DSCC — led by Kirsten Gillibrand, Mark Kelly, Adam Schiff, and Lisa Blunt Rochester — has formed a joint fundraising committee with Janet Mills.

Mills, running against Graham Platner in the Maine Democratic Senate primary, would become the oldest freshman (79) ever elected, to a 6-year term.

Sam Altman went from “AI will cure cancer" to "ChatGPT porn" in less than a month

ChatGPT boss predicts when AI could cure cancer

We made ChatGPT pretty restrictive to make sure we were being careful with mental health issues. We realize this made it less useful/enjoyable to many users who had no mental health problems, but given the seriousness of the issue we wanted to get this right.

Now that we have been able to mitigate the serious mental health issues and have new tools, we are going to be able to safely relax the restrictions in most cases.

In a few weeks, we plan to put out a new version of ChatGPT that allows people to have a personality that behaves more like what people liked about 4o (we hope it will be better!). If you want your ChatGPT to respond in a very human-like way, or use a ton of emoji, or act like a friend, ChatGPT should do it (but only if you want it, not because we are usage-maxxing).

In December, as we roll out age-gating more fully and as part of our “treat adult users like adults” principle, we will allow even more, like erotica for verified adults.

You should move to Chicago, start a publication, and show us all how it's done then.
