The use of AI to marionette a woman whose tortured existence was spent trying to carve her own life and identity out of the space men forced her into is both damningly macabre and a surprisingly perfect encapsulation of the problems with this ghoulish use of technology.

Whenever I see men complain about the male loneliness crisis or unique emotional/psychological issues faced by men, it’s very clear that they just don’t see women as full people capable of experiencing the exact same emotions they do

I’m not saying I don’t want the Republican Party to exist. What I’m saying is, every registered republican should be so fucking ashamed to be a republican that they all leave the party.

Someone ask if he ever plans to swear her in and then ask for the date. Problem solved. Maybe Mike is in the files and that's why he is helping. You could ask that too

Aaron Rupar @atrupar.com · 20h

FOX: You said last week that you would swear in Grijalva whenever she wants. She has written a letter to your office. You have not sworn her in. Doesn't your resistance add fuel to the fire that this is about Epstein?

MIKE JOHNSON: No. This is another partisan manufactured thing

americans have been learning about "no kings" via alternative media. social media, tiktok etc. we dont need the msm anymore and progressives should be investing billions in building up our own alternative information beachheads instead of constantly begging the dying msm to "do better"

This from the great @sulliview.bsky.social on the media's anemic (or non-) coverage of the massive No Kings movement is such a great point

If you're going to go to a protest, don't sign up beforehand and don't sign anything while you're there.

Mask up. Buddy up.

Have a designated comms person w/ phone. Leave your phone at home.

Take care.
