Where I'm at mentally.
If I ragequit this show it won't be over being annoyed by a shitty player like a Rapaport or a Colton, it'll be for *this*.

And it extends to other versions too, like the UK one, which might be even worse for its POC treatment.

Ron F. truly deserved better than how people treated him on that show.

Black contestants don’t get grace on this show. They continue to get throw under the bus during round tables & it definitely is a pattern at this point, if you look at all the other seasons. #thetraitorsus

Probably an unpopular opinion, but I'm pretty solidly over this reality star format for #TheTraitorsUS - preformed cliques of 'gamers', Housewives, etc. really limit the gameplay.

Microsoft can go to hell trying to cram copilot into every inch of their shitty OS. The only copilot I’m interested in is Klaus.

Reminder: There are primaries coming up around May in many states. Then we have the November midterms.

These elections matter. A lot. Be prepared to vote. Don't let anyone tell you it won't make a difference. It will. It's your right and a privilege. Exercise it at every opportunity. 👊💪

I will never be someone who revels gleefully in the idea of Collapse (b/c I am not a stupid motherfucker who thinks only *other people* will suffer and die when it happens).

But, if it is coming, then I do hope at least something better rises from the ashes.

"NO SHOTS FIRED"?!? *throws hands in air*

I fucking cannot...
So aside from tipping tens of millions of people into misery and penury, they also encouraged people to rise up against their horrible government then cheered them on while they got mowed down. And are bragging about this openly, on camera.

Bondi is already here. Vance is coming tomorrow. The next few days they are going to do as much damage and fear-mongering as possible. For show. They are terrorizing us for show. They will kidnap people, knowing they will let them go. For the show of it. (and to bump up their pretend numbers)
Dear neighbor,

We are seeing an increase in immigration enforcement and federal agents across South Minneapolis. This includes the sighting of Bovino at 34th and Cedar. There’s definitely an uptick compared to the last few days. 1/

Even after Trump is gone, the world will remember that he threatened to forcibly seize the territory of a peaceful democratic ally, and our institutions failed to immediately remove him. That makes US dangerously unreliable, not just one senile gangster.
His not being impeached by the end of the business day as a result of this threat is as much a problem as the threat itself. It’s not just Trump that the world has to worry about, it’s a GOP that supports him and Democrats who suck their thumbs and refuse to even discuss pushing to remove him

At what point (& by what mechanism) can it become law that abdication of duty, inaction in the face of imminent internal threat, refusal to exercise checks & balances baked into the US political system, choosing to do nothing, refusal to do one's job treason?

Congress and the Courts own this too.

Carney is bluntly telling the world, and Americans, that the post WW2 order is gone and America is left behind.

"As regards the Nobel Peace Prize, I have clearly explained, including to president Trump what is well known, the prize is awarded by an independent Nobel Committee and not the Norwegian Government,' said the Prime Minister."

Embarrassing mess...

Not jumping on the 'midterms will be cancelled' train. Do I fear something like that? I did for a hot minute a week or so ago. Do I really think it's feasible or likely, though? No.

"Bots don't exist to drive a narrative. Bots exist to create a narrative that *you* drive." Salient.
Are you spreading Trump’s propaganda for free?

I always return to: Why in god’s name would you, a wonderfully intelligent, curious, beautiful human being with an infinite capacity for learning and a fathomless depth of interiority give up a single iota of your creativity to a chatbot that can neither think, nor feel, nor create? Have some pride
No, these are very serious comments.

ChatGPT has absolutely no goddamn place in graduate education. It steals from other authors, routinely gets major facts wrong, hallucinates sources, and generally makes the prose flat and boring as hell.

And if you shill for it in my mentions, I'll block you.

Bovino isn’t cosplaying Hitler. He’s cosplaying Himmler. An American left that can’t tell the difference had no business talking about fascism.

Sometimes I really love people.
Today, Minneapolis had their annual Powderhorn Art Sled Rally. A community organized event that this time featured de-Icer sleds and bowling pins named for world leaders.

A very Minnesotan way to protest ICE. 😍🙌🏻
