Spent this Labor Day morning doing a protest run around DC. Getting sick and tired of this fascist takeover of my home.

FYI, divorce albums are never as good as regular break up albums because that is a /legal/ action which often has more restrictions on the artist. Ask Adele, Ariana or Kelly Clarkson.
Maybe we shouldn’t be cheering for the future downfall of someone having a bit of happiness.

The question is how America First is Donald Trump if he puts more effort into fighting local governments and fellow Americans than he is at brokering peace with our adversaries abroad?

This is what 14th and U looks like in Washington DC at 6 PM today. What exactly warrants this high police presence and interruption of traffic during peak commute time? Who knows…

The most frustrating recession indicator is that spam texts stopped being about giving me free stuff and are now about job opportunities at a decent wage.

I’m ready to make new things, so let me know if you’re interested in creating interesting and innovative content. Jack of all video production trades here (and social platforms generally!). I’ll also be working on some more personal projects, so expect to see my face a bit more.

I’m out with popcorn and everything, but just remember, beef between the most powerful man in the world and the richest man in the world doesn’t mean either is right. Initially their interests aligned. Now they don’t.

I keep reading articles about students, professors and personal trainers using AI to accelerate their work and it’s worrying.
ChatGPT can’t do simple computations reliably. I tried to get help on a recipe, and it took 4x to give me simple numbers, nevermind if the info is good!

So the public criticizing Elon musk for making a nazi gesture is innuendo, but denying a man deported to a foreign prison who has been charged with no crime due process is ok because he’s a fan of the Chicago bulls and has tattoos. Gotcha.

ICE is detaining citizens based solely on racial profiling. This will not be the last time we see American citizens have their constitutional rights violated in the name of immigration enforcement.

We're deporting green card holders, those who have explicitly condemned anti-semitism. The government is punishing people for protesting. Where is that free speech poser JD Vance now that was crying over innuendos of shadow banning?
Do not ignore this. citizens are next.

I’m confused. Are conservatives excited about crashing the economy on purpose? Increasing inflation, alienating every other nation the world, spurring nations to not buy our products, crashing the market, causing a recession, causing business to fail and screw everyone?

The democratic base has been asking for their representatives to do something to show that they’re fighting for them, even though they hold no majority.
Cory Booker is answering that call spectacularly.

I very specifically not only don’t follow Elon on any platform, but have him muted on X. He is now sending push notifications to wide swaths of people on the app (maybe all) in order to help sway a Wisconsin Supreme Court seat. This is insane.
