Don’t mind me but that means like two National Guard deployments = NPR and PBS

National Guard deployment in DC is costing $1 million/day www.cnn.com/2025/08/28/p...

They’re there each time I step out of the Metro, idling in groups with nothing to do

Meanwhile, around the corner, people are sleeping on the street, nowhere else to go, as Trump cuts funding for homeless people

I can't really explain fully why this is the thing of all things that got my jaw on the floor but I guess it's such a literal symbol and also such a jaw dropping amount of money while small businesses are struggling to survive the tariffs

Such a visible "go fuck yourself"

Y'know, I'm not sure which is more unintelligent--the AI or Donald and his staffer that ran with this post.

. . . that half-mask not only completely missing his nose but also only covering part of his mouth. 😂
Neither one is even remotely intelligent.

ChatGPT gave a significant portion of my students the wrong answer to an easy quiz question that everyone used to always get right

I had two groups of students turn in annotated bibliographies that were ChatGPT generated - not a single citation actually existed

This is fine dog meme

Am orangish brown dog sits on a red chair wearing a hat that matches his fur color. A circular table in front of him has a coffee cup on it. Around him, flames roar and smoke covers the ceiling. His speech bubble says "this is fine"

That's not why, David. YouTube is utterly and entirely crashing out at the moment. It won't really let me watch any video that I click on--no matter the content.

Trump bailed out Milei with $20 billion.

Milei crashed the Argentinian economy because of his family corruption & firing government workers.

Sound familiar?

Now, Trump is sending him another $20 billion which could be going in American's pocketbooks.

I need some other world leader to haul off and deck him with their other arm when he pulls this. Seriously, use some self-defense for once.
