Just discovered an insane new form of co-intelligence where you briefly share the mind of a great thinker in history and then a portion of their mind travels in yours for the rest of your life. Calling it a "book."

Trick question--they'll promise to change, but just keep using gaslight instead.

160 years ago, the 13th Amendment was ratified, ending slavery. But that amendment came with a sinister loophole: a Slavery Clause that allowed for slavery “as punishment for crime.”

“the USPS must turn a profit” makes me want to set things on fire
they put a clause in the fucking constitution about postal service, that’s how important it is
nothing in there about “only if you can make money on it”

🚨SCOOP: Amazon is preparing to sever ties with USPS and expand its shipping network as a true coast-to-coast rival.
It could cost USPS more than *$6 billion* a year in lost revenue, and lead Amazon to dominate yet another facet of the economy.
USPS posted a *$9 billion* loss in 2025.

Anyone here with political aspirations, please take note.

NEW: Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani said Thursday he will not continue sweeps of homeless encampments — which city data shows have not yielded any permanent or supportive-housing referrals in more than a year.

My most woke opinion is that the whole point of society is to collectively help each other. My taxes should be going towards housing and feeding everyone. No one should be without food or shelter. Rich people should be contributing more towards this. It shouldn't even be controversial!

Strongly believe that the ACTUAL purpose behind pushing "A.I." so intensely, in every part of life, is to play cover-up for the potential release of very real photographs incriminating a certain someone. So that when they're published, it can all be decried as "fake".
