Salvation Army seen feeding ICE today. For anyone who doesn't already know about their bigotry, here is more, No need to give them your money this Christmas, or ever.

It’s dinner time for the police. Appears to be pizza from a Salvation Army van.

Broadview’s “free speech” curfew starts soon, at 6pm.

Did DOGE save us $2 trillion?

“Not even close. .. Total spending excluding interest rose $220 billion, or 4%, for the entire fiscal year.” 🤡

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

RIP Renato Casaro, an Italian artist known for his film posters.
He passed away yesterday at the age of 89.

This whole section really.
Finally: AI cannot do your job, but an AI salesman can 100% convince your boss to fire you and replace you with an AI that can't do your job, and when the bubble bursts, the money-hemorrhaging "foundation models" will be shut off and we'll lose the AI that can't do your job, and you will be long gone, retrained or retired or "discouraged" and out of the labor market, and no one will do your job. AI is the asbestos we are shoveling into the walls of our society and our descendants will be digging it out for generations:

The only thing “powerful” about generative AI is its mythology. It's unprofitable, unsustainable, and inherently limited due to the probabilistic nature of LLMs.

Now the myth has grown out of control, and NVIDIA has got desperate to keep the growth going.

I realize this sounds a little mean, and I must be clear it doesn’t mean that these people know nothing, just that it’s been possible to scoot through the world without thinking too hard about whether or not something is true. When Salesforce said back in 2024 that its “Einstein Trust Layer” and AI would be “transformational for jobs,” the media dutifully wrote it down and published it without a second thought. It fully trusted Marc Benioff when he said that Agentforce agents would replace human workers, and then again when he said that AI agents are doing “30% to 50% of all the work in Salesforce itself,” even though that’s an unproven and nakedly ridiculous statement. Salesforce’s CFO said earlier this year that AI wouldn’t boost sales growth in 2025. One would think this would change how they’re covered, or how seriously one takes Marc Benioff. It hasn’t, because nobody is paying attention. In fact, nobody seems to be doing their job. This is how the core myths of generative AI were built: by executives saying stuff and the media publishing it without thinking too hard. AI is replacing workers! AI is writing entire computer programs! AI is getting exponentially more-powerful! What does “powerful” mean? That the models are getting better on benchmarks that are rigged in their favor, but because nobody fucking explains it, regular people are regularly told that AI is “powerful.” The only thing “powerful” about generative AI is its mythology. The world’s executives, entirely disconnected from labor and actual production, are doing the only thing they know how to — spend a bunch of money and say vague stuff about “AI being the future.” There are people — journalists, investors, and analysts — that have built entire careers on filling in the gaps for the powerful as they splurge billions of dollars and repeat with increasing desperation that “the future is here” as absolutely nothing happens. You’ve likely seen a few ridiculous headlines recently. One of the most recent, and most absurd, is that that OpenAI will pay Oracle $300 billion over four years, closely followed with the claim that NVIDIA will “invest” “$100 billion” in OpenAI to build 10GW of AI data centers, though the deal is structured in a way that means that OpenAI is paid “progressively as each gigawatt is deployed,” and OpenAI will be leasing the chips (rather than buying them outright). I must be clear that these deals are intentionally made to continue the myth of generative AI, to pump NVIDIA, and to make sure OpenAI insiders can sell $10.3 billion of shares. OpenAI cannot afford the $300 billion, NVIDIA hasn’t sent OpenAI a cent and won’t do so if it can’t build the data centers, which OpenAI most assuredly can’t afford to do. NVIDIA needs this myth to continue, because in truth, all of these data centers are being built for demand that doesn’t exist, or that — if it exists — doesn’t necessarily translate into business customers paying huge amounts for access to OpenAI’s generative AI services.

There’s a martini in the top left corner, and the rest of the image shows the consequences: the Grim Reaper at the wheel of a blood-splattered hotrod, his scythe sticking jauntily out of the driver’s side window. The Reaper tosses a can of beer from the car and guns the engine, aiming for a hapless pedestrian in the road. Phil just barely escapes and is forever haunted by his near brush with drunken death.

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

A new Mayor for Minneapolis is possible — and us winning isn’t that much of a long shot. New polling data indicates that we are within 5 points of Jacob Frey. Ranking Omar, Dewayne, and Jazz on your ballot in November can defeat Frey. Together we can win! Rank the whole slate for change.
Photo of bar graph explaining that Omar Fateh is polling at 29%, only 5 points behind Jacob Frey. Omar, Dewayne, and Jazz are polling at 10% more than Frey, and the graphic explains that ranking the whole slate can defeat Frey.

hi! if you live in Hennepin County / mpls area, you may know there are a lot of barriers to get through to the county about food assistance. here’s some info that’s been helpful for our household, including the county’s new interview phone line (612.348.9905). see image/alt text for more
having trouble getting through to Hennepin County for matters related to food assistance? 1. make an account at infokeep.hennepin.us — this allows you to chat with county staff and upload documents. they don’t complete interviews this way but it’s a good way to ask other questions/get info 2. if you can’t get through to complete an interview, they have a new phone line for interviews only that’s available M-F 8am-4:30pm. call 612.348.9905

If Dems manage to force Cuomo in over Mamdani, I hope they understand how many voters nationwide they'll probably lose for '26, and maybe beyond. And they'll deserve it.
