AI does NOT replace cognition. It is a parlor trick being sold to rubes, promising they will be enriched by displacing, for pennies on the dollar, the human capital achieved by actual human cognition.

Once again, I post the article for free and the critics don't read it. So I'll hand-hold here and note that I said it's fine to mock, but don't be children about it:

Did the CIA not vet the guy enough before hiring him as an operative, or something? or is it just assumed that that was Biden's personal responsibility to do, as well?

Among other travesties in this statement, National Guard soldiers are not "law enforcement"
REPORTER: There are people upset with the president, believing the National Guard members shouldn't have been there

PIRRO: I don't even wanna talk about whether they should've been there. We ought to kiss the ground and thank God that the president said it's time to bring in more law enforcement

No matter how long I live after we get through this dark chapter, I will never get over the immorality, the amorality, the corruption, the criminality and the cruelty in service to one of the worst humans to ever walk the earth.

Jeez, I’m watching an episode of “The Bear”. And I’m watching an episode of “The Bear”.
Alejandra Caraballo: I need to be nicer to people.

Also Alejandra: I disagree with you on whether a policy was written unconstitutionally broadly, so I am going to tell the world you WANT trans kids to be bullied and kill themselves.

What a remarkably dishonest, awful human being.

Targeting Kelly is one of those “this is why we’ll win” moments, bc it shows how politically impetuous this admin is.

There’s clearly no adult in the room to say “wait, maybe don’t go after the charismatic war hero turned literal astronaut who ran after his wife was a victim of political violence.”
Mark Kelly: "My wife, Gabby Giffords, meeting with her constituents, shot in the head. Six people killed around her, a horrific thing. She spent six months in the hospital. We know what political violence is and we know what causes it too, The statements that Donald Trump made incites others."

The problem with climate change is we have to convince a bunch of people that future people are actual people, when they don't even believe some currently alive people are people.

A mother and her 15 year old autistic son are reunited after nearly 50 days apart.

Emmanuel Garcia went missing, and rather than check missing person’s reports, Houston PD called ICE.

ICE sent him to the Office of Refugee Resettlement and his mom has been fighting to get him back ever since.
