Star Trek Deep Space Nine scene. We're on the Defiant I think, or maybe a runabout shuttle, the lights are dim. We see Jadzea Dax in Starfleet uniform, a humanoid alien who has lil tattoo looking marks up around her neck and through the forehead. Here she's making a scary angry face at the camera. Closed caption reads, "Boo!"

Published this last month. Trump's moved from illegal strikes on targets of unknown identity to preparing for a war against Venezuela for wholly unclear reasons seemingly on a whim. This isn't how you win a drug war but it will kill lots of people. internationalpolicy.org/publications...

Have I mentioned lately that Heritage has a journalism fellowship named after the Guardabassi family, the male head of which was one of Mussolini's emissaries in the US in the 1930s, while his wife was a leading funder of US antisemites & neo-Nazis in the 1950s-60s? “Our own people.”

“Why have countries that have moved an ever-growing share of social interactions into a frictionless online space, where political claims are validated or invalidated by popularity alone, seen a commensurate rise in extreme political factions driven by emotional catharsis and decoupled from reality”

There is no way it cannot be seen as simply a way to grab more people, to avoid human involvement, documents and any viable accountability process.

I think that’s the easiest way to boil down a lot of reaction views to homelessness, addition and people in need of help or accommodations. ‘Can i just not have to see or care?’

Under Trump, the draconian future of homelessness policy is coming into focus: mass internment. Utah is building a 16-acre site to detain up to 1,300 homeless people inside locked "accountability centers." This is profoundly alarming.

Huge contrast with them illegally refusing to make SNAP payments.

What we’re seeing from the White House is them moving heaven and earth to pay what they want to pay, even if it’s illegal — and moving heaven and earth to NOT pay what they don’t want to pay, even if it’s illegal.

Earlier today in Gresham, Oregon (a suburb just outside of Portland), a US citizen was detained by ICE after taking photos of their unmarked vehicles. US Gestapo smashed the persons car windows before detaining them. They have since been released.

NHC 5 pm Melissa update for Jamaica:

"Remain in your safe shelter and do not venture outside."

Winds "may cause total structural failure."

Wind speeds are now at *175 mph*.

1. Jamaica: Remain in your safe shelter and do not venture outside. Catastrophic, life-threatening flash flooding and numerous landslides are expected through Tuesday. The eyewall's destructive winds may cause total structural failure, particularly in higher elevations, leading to widespread infrastructural damage, prolonged power and communication outages, and isolated communities. Along the southern coast, life-threatening storm surge and damaging waves are anticipated through Tuesday.

NHC map focused on Jamaica. Hurricane Melissa is just to the south, tracking to cross the island and then Cuba and the Bahamas.

Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.
