Natalie Portman said she is glad there is a momentary peace and people are calling her a Zionist. Seriously fuck everyone she has been very vocal in support of Palestine and even refused an award from the Netanyahu govt. Yall are attacking the wrong people.

This is the Republican project in a nutshell: break the government, then claim the government is broken and needs to be abolished. Amazing that it works over and over.

April 2025: 1400+ federal employees comprising over 80% of CFPB's personnel are fired as part of a mass reduction in force, effectively gutting the agency.

October 2025: CFPB is no longer protecting consumers. Gee, I wonder why? 🙃

if I had a nickel for every time Saber farmed aura in official art, I'd be fuckin loaded because she farms aura like it's her 9-5

anyway have this pic of her that once again did not help her escape the cape-that-may-or-may-not-double-as-a-cozy-blanket allegations

Coming tomorrow, I yap about ANOTHER WA-2000/Bullpup Sniper Rifle mod in Fallout 4, but this time the legendary DegenerateDak cooked it up. Funny thing is I think Pig helped with this mod too, and he's the guy who did the original one. Anyway yeah, I'm hunting super mutants with it.

in other news, I just had the extremely unfortunate reminder that there exists a tiny annoying and vile creature in MHA called "mineta" and every single time I saw it on screen I wanted to bash its fucking face in with a fully upgraded super sledge

the fact that he pointed out how AI makes everything worse, thank you Bernie 🙏

Senator Bernie Sanders @sanders.senate.gov · 1d

Despite huge advancements in technology & worker productivity since the 1970s, wages for American workers have remained stagnant and almost all new wealth has gone to the people on top.

Will it be any different with AI and robotics?

I don’t think so. Maybe even worse.
