The America I was told about as a child, the stories my grandparents believed existed, my parents, etc... I was made to see & believe for decades in a malicious lie. A bunch of mean, influential, dead, white people erased histories, peoples

I’ve replaced my use of the word “but” with the phrase “at the same time” and I have completely demolished any attempt to troll me by screenshotting my posts and cutting off all the context after the word “but” and I highly recommend it to everyone.

As a teenager in 1990s America, we often laughed heartily at the absurdity of the idea that anyone, after taking a toke, or massive bong hit, or a Snoop-Dog-Drag on a blunt, etc..., would become homicidal. Disinfo propaganda about the not-laced (with-PCP) weed.

Thankful I learned Cyberstalking in Illinois is a Class 4 felony, up to 3 years in prison w/ a $25K fine, if a person says things online w/ intent to cause a person who lives in IL emotional distress. The perpetrator can live anywhere.
It can be classified a hate crime if the victim is diverse.

People are not ready for a bad faith fascist government that is willing to and already using faked images and documents to justify their actions and agenda let alone one that is willing to lie about everything including day to day things.
The level of danger we are facing is massive here.

Personally, I think it's a bad thing when people in the government post AI images without disclosing that they're AI.

I figure, sure, why not do a day-appropriate apple review.
As such, you get -- GRANNY SMITH.

Lord have mercy, there is an aluminum(?) drain pipe piece that detached from its bracket & in these wind gusts, it's like a one-note, dissonant hand-drum, made intolerable by insistent not-rhythm.

Okay this is not meant as a defense of Nuzzi at all but how did Lizza get all of this info? As reporters working at rival publications I can't imagine this was casual dinner conversation.
She accused him in a court doc of hacking her devices and I actually believe her.
