You've probably heard this story before, but not the way I'm about to tell it. Once upon a time there were a group of frogs and a group of scorpions. All of them needed to cross the river, so the scorpions asked the frogs if they could ride their backs.

And it doesn't matter if Raskin was joking about it or not. That's the problem: everyone wants to joke, everyone wants to be a comedians but real people's lives are on the line and Marjorie Taylor Greene helped put them there. This is not a joke:
If your version of the party has room for people saying wildfires are started by space solar generators funded by the “Rothschilds” then your version doesn’t deserve to win.
The tent must be big but it doesn’t need everyone. Bad people bickering is useful. They don’t all need a welcome mat.

Raskin: We are a big tent. We must be a huge, vast tent. I say this is a party that’s got room for Marjorie Taylor Greene if she wants to come over.

Miss me with this instant forgiveness of Marjorie Taylor Greene. She’s no hero. She’s Christoph Waltz at the end of Inglorious Basterds.

1/6 Democrats need to be more inclusive, especially with voters.
But inclusivity does not mean whitewashing far-right pro-Russian conspiracy theorists like Marjorie Taylor Greene.
She is not backstabbing Trump to help Democrats but to help Vance, Musk and Thiel, who are worse

steam is apparently allowing "this game had AI in it that it didn't disclose" as a valid return statement, so if you or anyone you know actually paid $70 for slop, get that money back
Insulting to the players, insulting to the IP, insulting to the medium, the developers. And the craft itself. Fuck you executives who pushed this garbage.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is littered with AI generated artwork which makes the $70 feel like a complete rip-off.

Not to get all Sun Tzu on it, but when the enemy is weak and divided amongst itself, you do not relieve the enemy by allowing their partisans into your camp. You drive them closer together, force them into tighter company, and intensify their conflict.

Trump is once again targeting federal employees he sees as “resistors.” With pressure mounting around the Epstein files, he’s unraveling quickly, and the scramble inside his administration is becoming more obvious by the day.

Now that we know Epstein helped Kavanagh become a judge, that comment Trump made with that one on camera in his 1st term, forcing him to shocked silence, then suddenly retire creating an opening, was probably Trump threatening to expose him. We need hard investigations, consequences, removals

Heads up for folx playing Arc Raiders: Embark has openly stated (in an interview with GamesRadar+), that the game uses the same AI voice tech as The Finals, and the CEO has talked about using AI to generate 3D models from YouTube rips.
If you're anti-AI you should not be playing Arc Raiders!

Not to be the fun police but I do hope people know that Arc Raiders does use generative AI for voice acting, and by supporting the game you're letting higher-ups know that this is an okay practice.
They try to downplay this on the Steam store page by describing the AI usage as vaguely as possible.

Cruelty really is the point. Who else would go to court begging for permission to starve their own citizens? Meanwhile, they send $40 billion to Argentina, buying two private jets for ICE “Barbie,” and Trump has already burned through $1 trillion in less than two months.

A federal judge ruled that Trump overstepped his authority when he attempted to send National Guard troops to Portland, Oregon. The judge’s decision permanently prohibits such troop deployments. Thank you Judge Karin J. Immergut!

Once I walked the path of gods, but I found it wanting
Then I walked the path of beasts, and this I found less daunting
But when I stepped the path of man, what I found was haunting
A mirrored knife
A deathless life
And all their cries were vaunting

I must have missed that part of the Biden Presidency, when he sent the troops into American cities.
Trump: "I was watching during Biden, there were troops standing up, brave. They're spitting at them & screaming. That soldier is standing there, he wants to knock the hell out of the person but he's not allowed to do anything. So they just stand & get abused. I say, they spit, we hit. Is that okay?"
