For the first time ever, I had to make a payment in crypto.
I can now confidently say that crypto payments combine the speed of a dial up modem and the ease of updating the drivers on a 1998 HP Laserjet printer.

This is like when young people only get liability car insurance and not collision because they can’t afford more so when they actually get into accident they are colossally fucked
DeSantis said “Most people, particularly under 50, what they really need is a catastrophic plan that’s affordable, where then they can pay whatever they’re doing out of a health savings account.”

Ron DeSantis says people under 50 don’t have much use for comprehensive health insurance
'Catastrophic care' should be enough for them.

Sooo theoretically...if I was an aspiring dictator attempting to use the military to crush my domestic opposition and consolidate power, would it be a good idea to stop paying my troops?
This is a military wife calling out Mike Johnson on C-SPAN this morning
Yesterday Johnson had the temerity to announce publicly that he will NOT call the House back to pass emergency pay for our troops
Can't imagine why he thought taking callers on C-SPAN would go well for him..

Republican C-SPAN caller to Mike Johnson: "As a Republican, I'm very disappointed in my party,and I'm very disappointed in you, because you have the power to call the House back. You refuse to do that just for a show."

Why TF are these guard troops wearing masks too!? Even in Iraq we weren't authorized to wear the gator, beyond around our neck at the ready, unless there was an actual full fledged sand storm. Sgt. Major would have blasted us for that. Where is leadership at now? Fucking disgrace.

Well gang, it's happened: OpenAI has built a platform filled exclusively with fake, AI content.
I've been playing with it for a few days, and I think it's safe to say we're basically kissing reality goodbye.

moments ago, ice agents again came out of the broadview detention/“professing” facility to escort a silver suv out of the lot.
one of the agents picked up and threw congressional candidate kat abughazaleh to the ground.

it is really important for news outlets to be clear (unlike the nyt here) that Kimmel was suspended not because of some grassroots backlash but because ABC caved to threats from the head of the FCC
ABC announced that it was pulling Jimmy Kimmel’s late night show “indefinitely” after his comments about Charlie Kirk’s death. nyti.ms/46vgZl3
