Mockler: You said that Democrats are dying on this hill, but a lot of Republicans are climbing up the hill right now. Marjorie Taylor Greene has been outspoken about it. Mike Johnson got confronted on C-SPAN the other day by a Republican…

Are we able to replace Sam Altman with AI? That might actually be an upgrade over his repugnant, vile personality.

Faine Greenwood @faineg.bsky.social · 1d

don't worry, Sam Altman is confident that his efforts to eliminate vast numbers of jobs will all just sort of work out for the unemployed, eventually, possibly after they starve to death, which is technically a form of having it work out

Sam Altman Says If Jobs Gets Wiped Out, Maybe They Weren't Even "Real Work" to Start With

Worried that AI will destroy work? Well, Sam Altman asks if you've considered what a farmer from half a century ago thinks of your job, first.

Hundreds of CDC layoffs reversed, but biodefense preparedness staff hit. I can’t believe the stupidity of this Regime. Wasn’t one pandemic caused by Trump firing people enough?

ProPublica obtained records from the Department of Agriculture that detail the 94 million pounds of food, down to the number of eggs, that never reached food banks because of the #Trump administration’s cuts to The Emergency Food Assistance Program.

My latest video for @propublica.org.

You know, the parts of the metro Detroit area labeled “Here be dragons, and not the kind from fairy tales”

They also know that they tend to have more support and less pushback in the more monied areas like Plymouth, Canton, Novi, South Lyon, Brighton, Milford…

Sharing this mostly as a “damn they’re all over the place.” Going into more $$ communities to target landscapers, in this case. Just awful

I shared this video through @redpopnews.bsky.social about the Indigenous Peoples' Day celebration at the Getty because it was beautiful to share our cultures and to be appreciated for who we are as Native people beyond the Hollywood tropes and Stereotypes and not as relics of the past.

On Indigenous Peoples' Day of ALL Days, folks should be super mindful and take time to learn and listen to Native People. We are NOT YOURS, NOT YOUR MASCOTS AND NOT THESE STEREOTYPES.

WE ARE HUMAN BEINGS!

Ooooh 🧐 I don't know how to take this because why?

After all the work we do as Natives to move away from this outdated, stereotypical imagery steeped in racism and erasure and this is what we get on Indigenous Peoples' Day and its being shared and reshared on such a huge level.
