I think I've figured out what the "AI" investor endgame is. They're sticking it into everything whether it's needed or not so that when the crash comes they can try to make a 'too big to fail' play for a bailout.
Hint: they're not too big to fail. They're failing already.

Here's the thing, speaking as a committed Democrat.
If the Epstein files take down several Democrats as well as several Republicans, I'm fine with that. I work for my local county children services and if you've been abusing under-age people, you DESERVE to go down in flames.

And while I'm thinking about art, this is for the AI companies out there: if your business model relies on wholesale intellectual property theft, you don't have a business model. You have a crime syndicate.

So in some non-political content, I'd like to offer folks a look at some of my photography work. I'm no Alfred Stieglitz, but I do have fun and hope I have an eye for catching things.

Just a thought: How about we stop shaming the poor for buying things that may not be essential, and start shaming the rich for making a profit off things that are essential?

@schumer.senate.gov, you do not have a deal and you know you do not have a deal. We don't want a future vote on an ACA extension, we need it saved *now*.
If you can't do that, then in the words of Leo Amory to Neville Chamberlain in 1940, "In the name of God, go!"

I first started listening to the Dead in 1981, so the '70s concerts were the tapes most in circulation, and Donna was of course part of that sound. 1970s Dead is still beautiful all these years later.

I appreciate Dick Cheney coming out for equal marriage and against Trump, *but* never forget he approved of torture, lied us into an unnecessary war, instigated the so-called war on terror, and was an architect of the 'imperial presidency'. Trump is partly *because* of him, not in spite of him.

a good evening to remember that the statute of limitations for a lot of federal crimes is longer than five years, and that state crimes cannot be pardoned by the President.

File under 'Stupid Science Headlines': no, they are *not* "evolving in reverse" or "de-evolving". They are evolving to fit their environment and that favors expressing ancient traits that haven't been used in a while. Evolution is a one-way process: forward.

We didn't have many contested offices on the ballot this year—all but one council seat and the school board were uncontested, and they're pretty much all endorsed Democrats even if they technically have to run as non-partisan.
