I didn't feel safe taking my six year old to this downtown march due to the size of the crowd but even the family-friendly sign making send-off event we attended had over a thousand people at it this morning.

Chicago is showing out for this.

Took my 6 year old to a small, family-friendly sign making send off this morning at a north side Chicago park and there were more than a thousand people at that alone.

Shonda just figured out that people longed for soap operas but no one is home during the day to watch them anymore.

In this economy, our General Hospital runs on prime time. And that one ran for *63* seasons.

"It's way easier to notice that LLMs such for most things than it is to work hard to ignore the obvious faults and delude yourself that it is useful anyway" is a wild way to defend AI, honestly.

Chicago, currently being invaded, terrorized and brutalized, is 17.

The entire state of Louisiana as a whole? 19.3.

But it's red so....

Alex Jones has asked the Supreme Court to immediately put his almost $1.5 billion defamation judgment on hold, citing the imminent threat of InfoWars being handed over to The Onion.

If there isn't a stay, "InfoWars will have been acquired by its ideological nemesis and destroyed," the filing says.

Hi @npr.org! We worked late tonight putting together this handy pocket guide!

It doesn't address road design issues, but if we're going to educate road users, we should include drivers.

It's the size of a folded business card. Print it, fold it, put it in your wallet!

"How Do You Avoid Hitting People With Your Car" pocket guide. Instructs readers to Watch the Road and Slow Down. Further text humorously insists that watching the road and slowing down are indeed important.

I showed this to my 6 year old once.

Once.

And now it is full time on request. Like, she has zero time for actual Rhianna. It's "show me the singing in the rain one!"

She has no idea who these people are. She's in it for the raw awesomeness.

If you support the second, you don't believe all political violence is wrong. You simply disagree on whether it was used against an appropriate political target. One, perhaps, whose name you don't know, fighting for a team you aren't friends with anyone on

Eyeharthomonyms @eyeharthomonyms.bsky.social · Sep 12

It's frustrating reading all of these "political violence is never the answer" opinions.

The second amendment is our country's explicit endorsement of political violence as a necessary tool

Anyone who wants to say that political violence is NEVER the answer needs to also be advocating for repeal

They could start with the way they handle teaching kindergarteners to hide from active shooters trying to murder them and their friends.

Because we parents have been dealing with the realities of gun violence for a while actually.

More or less than the number of kids who have firsthand experience of a shooting at their school?

I got vaccinated for RSV for my 2024 baby so I could protect her from the disease that hospitalized my 2019 baby, born before there was a vaccine available.

I imagine that it gave Charlie Kirk great pleasure to die as a martyr to the god of death he worshipped. I wish instead he could have died another way: of old age, peacefully, in a country where all his work had come to nothing, and he himself completely forgotten.

And God knows we have fetishized women suffering as much as possible in the process of childbearing since, well, the Bible was written.

Why NOT find a way to take away the one single medication she can take to alleviate some of the suffering?

Truly. Trump won't be punished? OK.... but will literally any other pedophile at all actually end up in prison? Even one? One single predator with the power and wealth to be in that circle will be stopped?

THEN RELEASE ALL OF IT.
