Just how bad is Grok's nonconsensual porn problem? Musk's AI chatbot is generating another sexualized image of someone without their permission every single minute:
Grok Is Generating About 'One Nonconsensual Sexualized Image Per Minute'
Elon Musk’s chatbot Grok keeps churning out nonconsenual images of women and minors in bikinis and lingerie, outraging users and regulators

Everyone should try being vegetarian for a month. I was for about two years and I still eat vegetarian for the majority of my meals, it’s really not that hard to get in the habit of making your boring breakfasts and lunches vegetarian. And cutting red meat out except for special occasions.
This place needs some Innocuous Discourse pronto. Quote this with a take that’s not political or aggressive

No, it was a successful coup. None of the people who led it were punished, and are in fact back in power, rewarded for their efforts to break the system by running it. Donald Trump is currently the dictator he attempted to become 5 years ago, and it’s because nobody treated trying as a crime.
We must speak plainly: January 6th was an attempted coup. It was an effort to nullify millions of lawful votes and subvert the will of the American people.

Judge: Anything you say may be used against you. I see you have counsel, Mr. Pollack, here. If you cannot afford one the government will provide a lawyer free of charge. Did you know of these rights?

In the absence of seeing a path forward to restoring the working class to power, it’s tempting to have faith that contact with an alien species will solve everything for us.

During the fires last year I sneezed really hard as I was getting in the car and absolutely slammed my thumb in the door. My thumbnail was completely wrecked but I didn’t want to go to urgent care due to the hurricane of flames. Took months for my nail to finally fall off, it was horrible.
What's the most ridiculous way you ever hurt yourself? I got out of the tub, skidded in water and tripped over the toilet. Ankle sprain.

One thing I don’t get is how the Trump admin possibly thinks the narco terrorism charges are going to stick against Maduro. Far as I can tell the scale of the fentanyl trafficking they’re alleging is pure fantasy, I don’t see how it possibly holds up.

The problem I have with the "Okay but Maduro did these human rights violations" is that Maduro remained in power under the pretext of America constantly threatening to invade. He would have been out of leadership a decade plus ago if we had normalized relations or even just stopped threatening them.

THREAD: Viral misinformation on US capture of Nicolas Maduro - 4 January
This video, shared by Alex Jones and others, falsely claims to show millions of Venezuelans in Caracas celebrating Maduro's capture.
In fact, it shows anti-Maduro protests in July 2024 over a highly disputed election.

The amount of money we're spending to terrorize neighborhoods and snatch tamale vendors should radicalize anyone.
The @chicagotribune.com did back of the envelope math and conservatively found that Operation Midway Blitz cost the taxpayer $59 million. Good reporting from @danvock.bsky.social
