Impeachment proceedings are mandatory. You either believe the presidency is governed by rules or you don’t.

You have to go through Congress for anything resembling this type of war. Round up Massie and Paul types and have him removed. The people in this administration are on actual drugs and have insatiable bloodlust and bespoke mental illnesses. He has to go, and everybody with him.

IIRC, this app was actually supposed to include a feature designed to force cops to fact-check AI-generated reports by inserting random references to magic & fairy tales. They had to be identified and deleted before the officer could file the report.
“‘The body cam software and the AI report writing software picked up on the movie that was playing in the background, which happened to be ‘The Princess and the Frog…'”
Cops Forced to Explain Why AI Generated Police Report Claimed Officer Transformed Into Frog
AI-powered software Draft One automatically generates police reports from body camera footage. It thought an officer turned into a frog.

In 2025, we barely used food delivery apps. It was too pricey, unreliable.
In 2026, it's time to just ditch this shit entirely. I admit that the appeal of "I can get a taco delivered to my house!" hooked me years ago.
But it's clear that none of these services work without grinding people up.

I think the move for the movie industry isn't necessarily "make theatrical windows long again" but rather to make the window before you can watch the movie for free on a subscription service (vs renting or buying it for a one time payment) like a year.
