Some news: tomorrow at 9am, Ted Koppel + CBS Sunday Morning will air a two-part story on the devastating surge of full-time workers being pushed into homelessness.

I'll be interviewed along with two families from There Is No Place for Us. It would mean a lot if you'd watch and help spread the word.

In October I got notice to move very last minute, made a mutual aid post and it didn't meet the goal. But the need didn't go away. The goal is 265/1000 reposts appreciated. Thanks to everyone boosting and helping so far 🙏🏿

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

Over the weekend, my wife's 13-year-old niece stayed with us. And I got an up-close look at how Roblox has turned so many kids into gambling addicts.

The niece even admitted as much as she and her friends opened boxes for rare pets that could be sold/traded for more currency to place more bets.

President Trump claimed the National Guard was needed in "war-ravaged" Portland. But a @propublica.org review of protests in the months leading up to his claims -- including more than 700 (!!) videos -- show a different reality.

The Trump Administration’s assertion that it can't use SNAP’s contingency reserves for SNAP benefits is contrary to:
▪️The plain language of the law
▪️Their own (now deleted) shutdown plan
▪️Guidance from prior Administrations

We have the receipts:
SNAP’s Contingency Reserve Is Available for Regular SNAP Benefits, as USDA and OMB Have Ruled in Past
The Administration must use all available options to fund November benefits for the 1 in 8 people in the U.S. who need SNAP to afford their grocery bill.

George was just trying to get to work.

ICE pepper-sprayed him, dragged him from his car, locked him in a detention center, and placed him on suicide watch. He even missed his young daughter’s birthday in the process.

This man is a veteran and American citizen. Don't look away.
"They put me on suicide watch and they put me in the cell, I'm naked, in like a hospital dress and just a concrete bed with like a mattress, like a thin mattress and, they leave the light on 24/7."

Not for me, "AI" aimed at consumers has very little offer anyone who actually does at a professional level the creative things it mimics. I write better than an LLM, an artist does better art than an image generator, a musician makes better music than an "AI" music tool.
Do you see AI actually being a useful tool for writing?
