Thx.

Wait ... is she the same Politico reporter who did that incredibly weird video a month or two ago that seemed to be seeing Trump's favor?

One other part of this is that the helicopters serve almost no actual purpose that helps ICE in its mission of brutalizing either protestors or purported immigrants. They're just up there to be expensive noisy scary assholes, and to inspire dumb counterproductive reactions like this laser idiocy.

I recognize the name Sally Jenkins. She's not arguing in good health, she's just a troll.

It's quite funny because there is a practical use case for the existing state of the technologies used by Neuralink and its competitors, they can be transformative for people with some motor neuron problems, but it's a small market with no money. The sci-fi fantasy Elon et al push is total bullshit.

If we assume every accusation they make is projection, this suggests people peacefully protesting should keep an eye out for provocateurs.

Before Craigslist newspapers made huge money, but this just led to them getting purchased in highly leveraged deals that loaded them up with unsustainable debt loads.

I remember in the 90s, before the classified ad revenue disappeared and ad revenue decreased, newspapers made an incredible amount of money compared to expenses, but they were already starting to die because of the insane debt loads piled on to them in leveraged takeovers seeking all that revenue.

There's also "Free Guy" as a Tron update.

Really should have been Stoopy Doo.

Warren Terra @warrenterra.bsky.social · 13h

Scooby Doo where the guy in costume has bring trying to warn people away from the town and its corrupt cops; when the Scooby gang captures the guy and calls in the cops, the cops lead them all deep into the mine. Fade to black.

Good thing, considering a giant dog was leaping onto it.

I'm not familiar with Heidekker and I caught on it wasn't real, this time, but I'm not sure I would have caught on another time.

People say war is hell but it seems to produce great art.

This is obvious bullshit from Trump but it does mean he's talking to Kash and Bongino about whether the FBI can infiltrate anti-Trump protests and even provide provocations.

Has Trump announced a new tariff on inflatable costumes yet?

The most plausible way to extend life is probably caloric restriction, but that's both cheap to do and a bleak way to live, and neither of those suits the needs of the billionaires.

Where else would you gear up for a fishing expedition?

Getting a card, and inside it says "Prompting Of You. Love, _______". The card is unsigned.

Maybe it's an import and there's the exchange rate to consider?

There are ads saying an LLM will make you rich betting on crypto with your money and they might as well put his name in the ad copy.

In theory I could consider waiving the exclusionary rule if the officers who broke the law were to lose their cop jobs and even go to jail for their crimes, but in practice obviously that would never happen even if the state promised to prosecute them.

Sorry, I'm overly literal and regularly see cis and trans used to label molecules.

Fun thing is, with the administration pretending ICE faces violent lawless insurrection requiring the army this guy's supposed bed rest for a groin problem is by far the most serious injury I've seen reported. It's completely unclear if it's real or what happened - presumably he wasn't shot, etc.
