You know, of all the things the "I don't trust doctors" crowd could be doing, not taking Tylenol is one of the less-destructive ones. Far less collateral damage than antivaxxers, at least.

You don't "ask for a meeting" with a goddamn fascist; you unconditionally oppose and obstruct him on every possible issue.

There's no negotiating to be done. There's no discussion to be had. Those are things you do with people who are coming to the table in good faith, which Trump is not.

Is this even a question?

G any and every day. As far as I'm concerned, food can be split into two categories: food that is Mexican, and food that wishes it was as good as Mexican

We don’t want AI slop.
Stop sending us AI slop.
Stop wasting our time with AI slop.
It doesn’t sound good.
It’s antithetical to our core values.
You didn’t even make it.
Knock it off.

What I wouldn't give to live in the alternate timeline where the possible discovery of past life on Mars is currently dominating headlines.

This Might Actually be Happening

It's a nice thought, but even a cursory glance at history shows this is objectively not true.

When slavery ended, it wasn't with the Civil Polite Discussion. When we stopped the Nazis, it wasn't with World Reasonable Discourse 2. Etc, etc.

Tangential, but important: can we talk about this precedent using AI videos, and how dangerous and destructive it is? If our leaders need to make a statement, they need to make it themselves; in the long run, leaders outsourcing their work to AI scares me just as much as any of the actual content.

He died doing the three things he loved most:
Being racist
Being transphobic
Supporting the 2nd amendment

From me, a list of Trump supporters who killed, or tried to kill, Democrats and opponents of Trump in recent years (since the right are now claiming all the political violence is from the left!)

Remembering MN house speaker Melissa Hortman, her husband Mark and their beloved dog Gilbert. Murdered in June at their home by a rightwing Trump-voting evangelist, who also shot another MN lawmaker and his wife at THEIR home, 9 and 8 times, respectively (miraculously, they survived).

Someone shot up my kid's school today, and our governor is paying tribute to a guy who thought that is an acceptable price to pay for having the Second Amendment.

Jared Polis has failed Colorado.

The Epstein files still did not get released.

I had a tasty breakfast.

Nothing else of note, as far as I'm aware
