I am excited to announce on this #Caturday that Ollie has officially learned his name!
Pop Quiz:

You've got Elon's money. What's the first thing you buy that makes you happy?

I pay everyone’s medical debt and student loans and also lobby politicians so there is no more medical debt and student loans

The Washington Post.
Buy out every rental house in my city from the mega property landlords here and give them to the people renting them along with free property tax coverage for life. Extra houses will all go to the unhoused

This is fucking ridiculous, we used to mock or demonize or bomb countries that did this
Fucking surreal that people dressed like this and carrying assault rifles are permitted to kidnap people off our streets

Peter Thiel et al never manage to explain how all of us just meekly submit to accepting them as oligarchs and working for them without fighting back with the wrench

You are not prepared to hear this guy sing
He played this song at an event I was at this past fall and I was floored. Out of body experience.

This is my favorite vid of it, vocals start at 2:45, and the two guys in the background to the very left are worth watching on the rewind.

Rep. Harriet Hageman is obnoxious as fuck and looks pleased with herself when finished. Maybe Trump will notice her now!

This is a man who Kristi Noem is completely shocked and horrified could be “doxxed” (aka properly IDed as a government employee) because of the danger it would put him and his family in, including, I presume, any 5 year old children
This guy went to work today, put a mask on, kidnapped a 5 year old child, and then used him as bait so both he and his father could be sent behind bars

Thanks for the chuckle this morning.

My working theory is these types of misunderstandings stem from not reading enough fiction. And no, I don’t mean the only five books that conservatives read so they can (still inaccurately) parrot back what they think it was about to each other. They need to read to develop empathy and get art
wake up babe we’ve got a new entry in the Misunderstanding Born in the USA files

This is why those stickers of Calvin peeing on [thing, usually political thing] are so insulting and disrespectful
Bill Watterson is my favorite cartoonist. I adored the relationship btw Calvin and Hobbes as a child. But as I've gotten older, these strips feel even more tender and insightful. My respect for him grew when I learned of his stance against merchandising. Such principles are almost unheard of today.

This is going to be received positively when ChatGPT recommends a specific brand of rope for a child to end it all, dontcha think
“This could look like a user asking how much ibuprofen to take for a headache receiving a promoted ad for Advil in the chatbot’s response. Meanwhile, actual results on correct dosage may be brushed to the side, or buried under a mountain of ad text…”

Extremely funny to call the pope “holier-than-thou”

@mcuban.bsky.social it might help if you think of universal healthcare as for “the poors”. We could still have optional insurance for your premium concierge physician; the difference for the rest of us, instead of paying money to the middlemen who provide no value, we’d pay slightly higher taxes
How much are you going to pay doctors?

Which current hospitals get shut down ?

What happens if doctors opt out of the system ? Who is going to invest in new curative therapies. You ?

How much in taxes pr year do you think it's possible to collect if you took every penny from billionaires?
Half the amount that everyone currently pays could provide universal healthcare. Private health companies don’t need to exist. Eliminate them. And use your collective buying power and economies of scale to get it done. Every cent of their profit is healthcare denied.

There’s something darkly funny about “AI can empower even uncreative people who have no ideas to create art” and “you need specialized training to create AI prompts because you can’t articulate what you think” existing in the same universe. It’s like a double insult to everyone
I find the idea that you need to know “how to use” AI tools really funny, as if it isn’t incredibly easy to type in prompts and the marketing these tools is that literally anyone can do it
