I’m sure I can’t be the only American who feels the raw idiocy surrounding

“…the President did crimes today, including murder, but we are waging a war on Black and brown people… so pay your taxes…”

I think we’re seeing the very real impacts of using AI to abuse an elderly man with dementia.

Mamdani: "I just want to speak directly to the president. I will not be a mayor like Mayor Adams who will call you to stay out of jail. I won't be a disgraced governor like Andrew Cuomo who will call you to ask how to win this election. I can do those things on my own."

Remember that JD Couchfucker could have chosen to say... nothing. That was an option.

And instead, he chose to jump in and defend the Hitler youth.

Also I think every pope from now on has to have a sincere fanhood of some kind.

Doesn’t have to be sports, maybe the next pope is a Dr. Who fan.

I think even God likes this pope.

It’s maybe lost on some folks that there are literal people out there who sold their voices to AI like got-dang real-life Little Mermaids.

Adelita Grijalva should just show up to one of these smarm conferences with a bible in hand and say, "Why not now?"

Mike Johnson: "They berated a Capitol police officer, screamed at him. He was merely standing his post. It shows, again, their disdain for law enforcement, the Democrats, screaming, assaulting officers."

love is a thunderhead
roiling light and darkness
shadows, flashes dancing
over weary souls

compelling us, driving us, leading us
into stupid choices
against whatever isn’t
love

slowing our hands
breaking our hearts

cleansing us with a rain of tears
hearts burning with captured
lightning

it runs out, at a certain point
at some anonymous future moment
just a piece on down the road from us
this patience for oppression
this toleration of bad villains
and somehow worse heroes
it runs out

This is important: the way this regime is seen by the majority of people *who are BARELY paying attention* matters.

one response to this (correct) observation is to say “well, the cops will attack you no matter how you dress and behave.” that’s right. images of cops and ICE beating grandmas and kids in inflatable frog costumes is a win for the opposition.

Dr. Samantha Hancox-Li @sjshancoxli.liberalcurrents.com · 1d

one of the reasons they're so mad at "no kings" is that they thought they were going to get a different kind of protest. they *want* the black bloc to be out there fighting with the cops. those are the images they've been trying to generate from "go." instead--

"The AI Revolution has started" declares a lady on LinkedIn. "Welcome to the AI Age. How does that make you feel?"

It makes me feel that people who have invested an awful lot of money in a very dodgy and unethical technology are starting worry that 'Fetch' simply won't happen.
