To placate the base, Trump occasionally belts out a rant on Truth Social, sometimes peppered with racism to make people feel he's fighting for the white working class. Or he renames the Kennedy Center. But the material conditions for most voters remain unchanged. Pure symbolism.

Almost a year into this presidency, Trump voters have gotten nothing except the Big Beautiful Bill, which was usual Republican politics of giving tax cuts to the rich and slashing social spending for the poor. Housing remains unaffordable, cost of living is rising, and manufacturing jobs fell.

There's a reason I've spent the last year diversifying my investment holdings. When the "AI" bubble pops, it's going to be fucking brutal.
The AI bubble will pop. However, just as with the dot-com bubble, the underlying technology will stick around and eventually succeed. That said, it took the Nasdaq 15 years to recover from that, and it won't surprise me if it takes that long for our current market to recover.

Not a coincidence the Epstein Files were aggressively redacted by a black Sharpie before being released.

One major problem, bluntly, is that lots of folks can't distinguish between good writing and poor writing. This is about education, not intelligence: they could learn the difference, but it's frequently not taught, even in "good" schools. This is ultimately a competitive disadvantage for them.
it's so wild that people conflate quickness with quality so they think chatGPT writing a wall of text in 10 seconds means it's good writing.

They don't give a damn about "protecting the victims", they only care about protecting their most favored perps – most notably, Donald Trump.

They think writers can be replaced because they don't understand what writing is effective, yes, but don't discount the desire to cut human labor out of the process entirely, not just for "cost savings" but because the management class and especially the investor class just fucking hate humans.
Is that why people think that ChatGPT and other AI(?) could replace authors - the people in management can't recognize good writing and so assume that no one else can, either? It seems like that would quickly be dismissed witjh any sort of beta readership, but.

The president says he’s giving members of the military $1,776. It doesn’t make up for all the damage to the VA.

HUGE NEWS from the new Epstein files:

Records show that Maria Farmer, who worked for Epstein, filed a "child pornography" report to the FBI in 1996.

The FBI has never before acknowledged that complaint. The case went nowhere, and mass abuse followed.

One of the more egregious sins of LLMs is taking away choice.

It's one thing for silicon valley to do this. It's quite another for organisations to bend the fucking knee and duplicate this lack of choice.

I'm not against innovation.

I'm against anybody or thing who takes away my power to choose.

DOJ broke the law today by refusing to produce all the Epstein files. It also broke the law by redacting information other than to protect victims. Yet, the corporate media is acting that DOJ did us a huge favor.

Now, more than ever, help build independent, pro-democracy media. hubs.ly/Q03CbHTt0

TBF, this is a bad time to run for anything as a Republican. Especially in New York.
Elise Stefanik did an event in her north country home district on Thursday and found the local crowd, in a ruby-red area, was intensely hostile to her. It was one of the reasons leading her to decide it was time to quit politics and move on. www.timesunion.com/state/articl...
