Starting a block list, because we've all read this same #carbrain drivel more than enough. I've only seen one on here so far myself, so please feel free to send more along. I'll probably do a second list for explicitly violent ideation in case you want to mute vs block.

​It's baffling that we allow private companies to use public infrastructure as their R&D lab, externalizing the risk onto the public, while they fine tune their unproven software.

by the way, as I learned today when I did this, if you opt out of letteing Google's AI read your emails, you also lose:

- Spellcheck
- Tabs/Categories
- Spam Detection (!!!)

without spam detection there's almost no reason to use gmail

they want to make it painful to remove their AI permissions

Trump officials give $1 billion loan to restart Three Mile Island

The deal leaves taxpayers shouldering some of the risk of the plan to reopen the shuttered nuclear plant and sell its power to Microsoft for its data center needs.

Trump is taking money we use to house people, money we use to *prevent* homelessness, and requiring it be spent instead on policing homelessness.

Yelling at people for being homeless, unsurprisingly, is less effective than housing people. He doesn't give a shit. The cruelty is the point.

I had no idea you could do a Stop the Bleed course in person, locally, for free. Highly recommended- it was just an hour, but I left feeling like I learned a lot about what to do in an emergency situation.

The abductors are also sex traffickers. Who could have predicted?
ICE employee among 16 men arrested in Bloomington sex trafficking sting, police say.
"When he was arrested, he said, 'I'm ICE, boys,'" Hodges said during a press conference Tuesday. "Well, unfortunately for him, we locked him up."

According to Bloomington Police Chief Booker Hodges, officers started the three-day sting on Nov. 5. They used several methods to find people who were attempting to solicit a 17-year-old girl for sex.

Nearly two weeks of surveillance footage from the Broadview ICE Detention Center has been "irretrievably destroyed" and cannot be produced as evidence in a lawsuit against the government over abhorrent conditions there:

Anthem BC/BS came back, 10 months later, and decided that it was going to deny me and my son's rabies treatments, after already approving the claim last December.

Denying a claim where if treatment were not given, results in death 100% of the time!

Bill Clinton had his first two nominees for attorney general fail because they hadn't paid Social Security taxes on their kids' nannies.

Donald Trump had his nominee for attorney general fail because he was raping homeless teenagers.
A teenager in Florida with a homeless parent wanted money for braces and ended up having sex for money with powerful men, setting off a chain of events that would have a dramatic impact on her life and help upend the political career of Representative Matt Gaetz. nyti.ms/49PSkL9

this is always were it was headed. the right-wing doesn't believe that women and girls are people with rights, they are things to be used, coveted, and controlled. it is easier to do that with minors, so they don't think it's a big deal.

Drivers stop at crosswalks in Poland now because they passed presumed liability, and they ran a public awareness campaign to promote it. The driver is presumed to be at fault if they hit a pedestrian in a crosswalk.
The zebra stripes in Poland have magical power that the ones in America don’t. Even on a fast divided highway, a pedestrian in the shadows, well back from the curb, can stop traffic.

We tested GPT-5 and GPT-4o to see if GPT-5 was safer & found that actually GPT-5 gave MORE harmful responses.

Huge scoop from Ed, who had several years of financial reports leaked to him. OpenAI has been over-reporting their revenue. The company is even less profitable than we knew.
Exclusive: Based on documents viewed by this newsletter, OpenAI spent over $12.4 billion on inference from 2024 to September 2025. As part of its Microsoft revenue share, it sent $493.8m in 2024/$865.8m Jan-Sep 2025, implying lower revenues than previously reported.
