“If a woman dares to show herself in public in any way, then she can and will be sexually harassed with the aid of genAI-driven tools that can easily turn her face into highly realistic pornography” is an absolute red-alarm human rights disaster
The end goal of Grok sexual harassment is to make women afraid to be visible. It’s a punishment for daring to exist in a way the perpetrators can’t control. There’s no one solution to this, because the problem isn’t just technological. It’s cultural. It’s misogyny. This is just one expression of it.

They did it! Passing against the Jets this season: 36 touchdowns, 0 interceptions
A dubious historical mark is at stake this week.

If the Jets don't intercept a pass on Sunday, they'll become the first team in the Super Bowl era to finish a season without a pick.

Weirder still, they'll become the first team to finish a season without a pick in over 80 years.

yep. i can identify any number of structural issues but at the end of the day the basic problem is the republican party. this has been apparent for at least 20 years. it is also an incredibly unpopular observation to make among “serious” people.
Right.

If you want a good explanation of why the American system of government worked well enough for 200 years and then suddenly stopped, it's because Republicans in Congress suddenly started letting their partisan interests COMPLETELY override their institutional interests
a lot of problems wouldn't exist if we had a congress with even an ounce of self interest

We are in a post legal country.
The Epstein Files Transparency Act is a law, passed by Congress on November 19 with an overwhelming vote. Complying with it was not optional. The Department of Justice did not comply.

I want to make sure this is very clear.

MARGE RIPS TRUMP’S 🇻🇪 ATTACK: “This is the same Washington playbook we’re so sick and tired of, that doesn’t serve the 🇺🇸 people… it serves big corporations, banks, and oil executives — our neighborhood is in the 50 United States, not the southern hemisphere.”

All because Trump wanted his own Zero Dark Thirty moment
The irony is, if Trump had framed it as "elements of Venezuela's regime acted, with our assistance, to remove Maduro as a roadblock to resolving the crisis", the whole thing could have come across as a decent-size win without the baggage of kidnapping and colonialism.

Among the many reasons you don’t kidnap a foreign head of state at gunpoint even if you have the capability, is that it sparks consequences you can neither control nor anticipate.
