Sometimes I type replies that my first thoughts think are good ideas.
More often than I'd like to admit, my second thoughts tell me "stop being stupid, don't post that."
But sometimes things get past my second thoughts, and my third thoughts say "Was it /really/ that clever? Best just delete it."

“Guzmán’s daughter was still in the NICU, unable to eat or breathe independently. The doctors had planned a meeting to review the baby’s prognosis and care plans… As Guzmán went to buckle her seatbelt, she looked out the window and noticed they were surrounded.”
Her baby was in the NICU. She was in ICE detention.
Before Trump took office, postpartum immigrants were rarely detained by ICE. Nayra Guzmán was detained while her 15-day-old baby was in the NICU.

I dunno man the concept of actually owning something you pay for must be like a drug if you're under 30

This is also why several western states are the shapes they are - There was a fight prior to the Civil War where both pro- and anti-slavery sides were adding new states to the Union in equal numbers (to keep the Senate balanced), so sliced up territories to fit the compromise lines they'd made up.
The scars of slavery really are scarred into the very face of America isn't it

Genuinely one of the best videos she's ever done. Gloriously vicious, filled with extremely justified fury. Go watch it!
NEW VIDEO: Big business is a death cult worshipping a many-faced Techno God. In an industry full of takers who want to eradicate the makers, so-called AI promises a nonsensical fantasy where games are made for free and sold to a world of laid off former workers. It is unhinged.

Dear Google,
I have seen your vanilla ice cream cone vs Gemini enabled phone commercial. This is just a note to tell you:
I would rather have an actual soft-serve vanilla ice cream cone than your AI slop.
This phone already does everything I need, and I will sooner replace the battery myself.
