MINNEAPOLIS: “All I did was step outside as a Somali American citizen, and I got chased by a masked person, assaulted, kidnapped. It was inhumane. If this is what’s happening to a 🇺🇸 citizen on camera, imagine what could happen to your loved ones.”

Thread, because this 100%.

The moment the tech bros came in dicks swinging and screaming about how "we're gonna kill your jobs and you can't do anything about it," WHILE they were actively stealing from us, was the moment I became determined to burn GenAI shit to the ground.
I continue to have no sympathy left for whinging about how the public are rude about AI and feel threatened by it when the biggest players in the AI space have spent years very vocally and constantly *threatening the public*

You have often heard me repeat the founding phrase of Hookland: re-enchantment is resistance. This is the county’s core truth. However, I will point out that that sometimes re-enchantment is also an act of intentional sabotage.

I have been screaming with laughter for some minutes now.
I wonder if this photo was chosen by someone who searched for "parent and kid, upset" and this is what popped up and they don't understand the context.

Or maybe the Financial Times is accusing private equity of fucking a pie. I just don't know about finance to make a judgement on this.
Private equity may regret inviting in mom and dad
Private equity wanted democratisation. The courts may deliver it.

Local cops could put a dent in ICE and CBP if they simply stopped doing what they've always done: allowing their law enforcement brothers to commit rape, intimate partner violence, robbery, DUI, and drug trafficking with absolute impunity.

There are 2 reasons the WH is using artists like Sabrina Carpenter & Sza’s music (against their consent) 1) trolling, obviously, but 2) the right wing has no cultural influence. They could use Kid Rock, or any other right wing country singer‘s music, but it wouldn’t have the impact.

B/c they suck
Another day, another dehumanizing meme from the White House. This time, it’s SZA calling out a pro-ICE video using her ‘SNL’ ‘Big Boys’ verse. She said it was ‘Evil n Boring.’

Let’s be very clear-eyed about this: Today is December 10th. The Epstein Files are due to be released on December 19th—so the war with Venezuela will start sometime between then and right now.
