I have clients submitting AI-written reports to donors that give them six figures annually. These reports are riddled with factual errors, and a year ago we would go line-by-line to triplecheck every fact. It's bizarre.

The most I've ever agreed with a post. I visited the post office today to mail my holiday cards—didn't HAVE to go in to send them on their way. I just wanted to, and I was right. It was great.
One of the things that irritates me about defunding the Post Office is that the Post Office is just a great place to go to. People getting presents, sending off Christmas letters, the hustle and bustle of American Capitalism, people meeting people, babes and hunks, get laid at the Post Office folks

When this era of fascist grifters is over, maybe then we can consider what might be valuable about what’s now called AI (though it isn’t) and proceed with eyes open. Until then, make your own slop! BETTER slop.

bring back shame, combat vice signaling
we all got cowed into avoiding "virtue signaling" as if the public affirmation of socially agreed upon ethical principles was somehow cringey instead of a significant part of what a "society" even is. now all there's left is vice signaling, and it's reshaping society.

Who is Gavin Newsom’s constituency? Like how many Americans feel strongly about Palestinian liberation but also hate trans people?
GOV. @gavinnewsom tells @jdcocchiarella he’s saying no to AIPAC money: “I don’t take tobacco money, oil money, and I’ve never taken AIPAC money. There are certain absolutes that are the lines that have been drawn for decades for me.”

Why hasn't Pete Hegseth been arrested yet? Is there some procedural thing where he has to be impeached and removed first? Can we get those two things done then?

"opposes capital punishment" is kind of a pillar of my understanding of myself, And Yet
There’s an established penalty for ordering the killing of shipwrecked sailors (even during a war, which we are manifestly not in) and we should apply that penalty. I would say it’s vitally important to apply that penalty, in fact.
