You know those premonitions people get in the Final Destination movies of imminent disaster?
TurboTax is about to be integrated into ChatGPT, where customers will be guided through tasks tied to their tax filings or financial profile by the AI chatbot.
TurboTax owner Intuit is also paying OpenAI more than $100 million a year to power AI agents.

When asked if there was anything "incriminating" in Epstein's emails, Trump pointed a finger in a female reporter's face and snapped. 'Quiet. Quiet, Piggy.'

Absolutely cannot wait to bust down the doors for a drink made by a company whose unionized workers are on strike in a store that doesn’t want to hire minorities anymore.
Beginning Monday, a Frozen Peppermint Hot Chocolate drink will be available exclusively at Starbucks cafés inside Target stores.
The chains are hoping the drink can drum up excitement from customers this holiday season.

Alice Wong was one of the most effective people challenging the Whiteness of disability communities and its many flaws, but who believed fiercely in us as a community, in disabled people as oracles.
Alice brought so much to so many of us, it’s hard to measure the kind of gratitude I have for that.

I continue to think it is easy to connect these issues
'We could spend our time and money serving the public; Republicans spend their time and your money protecting pedophiles'
'We want to make it easier for you to get by; they want to make it easier for Trump to get away with child abuse'
'We could spend our time and money serving the public; Republicans spend their time and your money protecting pedophiles'
'We want to make it easier for you to get by; they want to make it easier for Trump to get away with child abuse'
The usual suspects are telling Dems that Epstein won’t win elections, get back to “affordability” and I think my head might explode. www.offmessage.net/p/force-a-re...
Force A Referendum On The Epstein Coverup
It divides Republicans much more than "affordability" or any other economic issue.

I think that if you say that assaulting a 15-year-old isn’t really pedophilia, or is substantively different/less bad than assaulting a younger child, *on television*, you shouldn’t be able to have a functional life outside your home. People should be telling you what kind of person you are all day.
