Say it with me now- placeholder assets are supposed to be bright and obvious so you DON’T ship with them.
Also it doesn’t matter if no ai-generated assets are in the final executable?? The rising sea levels aren’t gonna be like “oh well no one saw that so the climate change doesn’t count”

Yeah, here is the thing: Bari Weiss is fine with conspiracy theories that target her enemies. The biggest causes of political violence in America? Universities, which operate like madrassas.
That’s a conspiracy theory dressed up as respectable middle-of-the-road punditocracy. That’s what it is.

I am still so fucking pissed about this.
If you see this listing pop up on Amazon, just know that it is NOT the comic by @stephwilliams.bsky.social and @ignitionpress.bsky.social
It's an author who had the cover copied to sell his own book. Ignition is on it, but this is brazen theft.

The hero of the Hannukah massacre has been identified as Ahmed Al-Ahmed, a 43-year-old fruit shop owner. He disarmed one of the gunmen. He is Muslim.
May he be an inspiration to the world.

Q: At the end of this year, those extended Obamacare subsidies expire. What's your message to those 24m Americans who will see their premiums go up?
TRUMP: Don't make it sound so bad. Obviously you're a sycophant for Democrats. You're obviously a provider of bad news for Republicans.

It’s so wild that “a random online leftist said something I found annoying once” is legitimately a huge driver of modern politics in a way that “online right-wingers with significant sway over powerful people say literal Nazi things” isn’t and likely never will be
Literally nobody has ever referred to her as a "birthing person," yet the existence of the term was enough to turn her into a full-on anti-trans crusader.
Ana Kasparian claims the left turned on her over her opposition to being called a "birthing person".
Ana Kasparian: "I don't have kids, I don't want to have kids, and I don't want to be called a 'birthing person', I find it super insulting."

“JonBenet Ramsey said that if you are beautiful, you may be killed in service to your country.” No Olivia I don’t believe JonBenet Ramsey said that actually.
