Noticing another uptick in fake AI slop food accounts on here... Some link to fake "blogs" with untested recipes and AI photos, others just follow-farm or spam food feeds. I drop all of these into a mod list if you want a one-stop block list that I update whenever I find new ones.

it's just so emblematic of what passes for conservative thought, this belief that their children go to college not to leave ignorance behind by learning from experts, but rather to teach the experts from their locus of ignorance, and to have their nonsensical prior assumptions validated as true

I don't think free speech on campus ought to mean that a young coddled bigot gets to use their ignorance to casually destroy the career of a knowledgeable trans person on a random Wednesday
Worth noting that the student admits that she just threw the thing together in 30 minutes without reading the paper she was supposed to be responding to.

This is just another example of lower value consumers subsidizing high volume users; not unlike low wage earners paying more income taxes than the billionaires. Congress can study the problem forever but will certainly not take any action beneficial to the working class.

ICE has posted a video of Santa Claus arresting immigrants. Your government is hijacking a symbol of charity to spread fear and hate. it’s up to all of us to defeat these twisted fascists.

Turns out that if you want to actually know stuff, at some point you’re going to have to do the work yourself, or you’re just cosplaying expertise. It’s selling a shortcut that is at best a simulacrum of knowledge.

And please also, AGAIN, never forget that they are inherently unethical to use because no one gave permission for their research or writing to be used in it. It is all stolen, and if you're using the plagiarism machine, please keep that in mind.
My friends, I say this with all the love in my heart: Right now might not be the moment for “But we should be TOLERANT and NUANCED about the plagiarism machines!”
Your tolerance and “nuance” will be weaponised by the grifters and their apologists. Please respect yourselves more.

NEW: Many Democratic Senators said they hadn't seen Marjorie Taylor Greene's anti-trans bill and didn't say if it would fail. The only one who gave a hard commitment? Greene's fellow Georgian Raphael Warnock.

Insulate your house with books to ward off evil
Oppose the zombie AI apocalypse
Never click on a link to the Daily Mail
Use double the recommended amount of garlic
Always stop to say hi to sheep
And to horses too (but in a fake posh voice)
I think that's more or less everything covered?

Hey I know it's rough out there right now... I made y'all some snacks! It's buttery chex mix with Old Bay and smoked paprika, and it's pretty good (*still needs rye bagel chips but it's gross outside and someone sensibly talked me out of making pumpernickel bagels from scratch to make them, lol). 🍽️🍜

That's great, Brandon, except for the fact that we all saw video of CPD escorting the fed convoy up Lakeshore Drive and up Sheridan, and we all saw how CPD acted as a rolling blockade against people who were documenting what the feds were doing.
NEW — Community members decried local police in Chicago and suburban Evanston; both departments were accused of assisting Border Patrol Commander Greg Bovino and his Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agents.
