Goodness. It's been a while since I've cried while reading.

What a shit show. How insecure is the police building? Why are a bunch of floors vacant and how do people have access up there? Who is this couple? How did they get in? This is all it takes to disable/disrupt the WPS? Ridiculous.

I keep my Facebook locked down to mostly relatives & a few people I actually know. I thought it would be safe enough accepting a friendship request from the "nice" old lady down the street.
I was happier before I learned her beliefs were far right. I don't need to know how stupid my neighbours are.

THIS!!
I think this is part of my generation's confusion about AI.

We were raised on a culture that warned about these dangers repeatedly -- from WarGames to the Terminator films to the Matrix, and countless other dystopian futures in between -- and now those cautionary tales are being celebrated.
Imagine when The Terminator came out if you told someone that in 40 years the world’s richest weirdo would fill the sky with a communications net, embrace AI, and now promise to build an army of robots, and nobody seems inclined to stop him.

Police say someone opened valves in an upper stairwell.

They are charged with mischief over $5K. Story to come.

ICE using the same ruse that Ted Bundy used to kidnap people should tell you something.
CCTV footage appears to show DHS agents posing as people having car trouble in order to lure a target out of his house before arresting them. The target comes out and starts helping them before 3 vehicles surround the scene. The car "experiencing" trouble then drives off with them.

I had the opportunity to rise during Senate Question Period this week, to ask about the Canadian government's continued commitment to using X for official communications - and about their failure to use sites such as Bluesky and Mastodon. What do you think? #cdnpoli #Canada #Grok #X #Bluesky

1) Did you know the story of the Freedom House EMS in Pittsburgh, a group of Black men who became America's first paramedics and set the gold standard for emergency medicine around the world? Until the 1970s, if you suffered a medical crisis, your chances of survival were minimal. #ShedShed #Pinks

The first time I heard Ravel's Bolero was as a teen watching Torvill & Dean. Fell in love with it that day. *sways*

Give her what she really wants for Valentine’s Day: A bookshelf with a rolling ladder, a vintage bottle of Château Margaux, a basket of fresh pastries, and a candlelight meal where she can dine on the hearts of all who've wronged her.

No little amount of effort taken by Putin to remove his enemies. There is something seriously psychologically wrong with someone that insecure and full of hate.
