I accidentally ended up on the Discover tab and over there there are still liberals suggesting that Trump is doing everything he’s doing at Putin’s behest.

Fuck that’s about one block away from a spot I used to hang out at all the time.
You have to read this. Firsthand affidavit from one of the women who was there and recording the video. She talks about how Alex Pretti was directing traffic when she arrived. She watched him be killed in front of her. She's afraid to go home, worried she'll be arrested.

The extortion of Zelensky that got Trump impeached in 2019 honestly pales in comparison to the threats he’s currently leveling over Greenland.
We are miles past guardrails that still existed only two years’ worth of Trump presidency ago.

Even in the fictional scenario where an ICE agent is facing a car determined to run them over, shooting straight through the windshield does nothing to stop the car (it accelerated when Good slumped onto the gas!). Even their attempted justification makes no sense.

In one of the most appalling developments of past day, Elon Musk's AI chatbot desecrated Renee Nicole Good's body. That's in addition to harassing women and sexually exploiting minors. By @katieherchenroeder.bsky.social

I wrote section 230 to protect user speech, not a company's own speech. I've long said AI chatbot outputs are not protected by 230 and that it is not a close call. Given that the Trump administration is going to the mat to protect pedophiles, states should step in to hold Musk and X accountable.
I am not a Section 230 expert but being that Twitter is creating and publishing these photos I wonder if they actually have any civil legal protection? @kenwhite.bsky.social ? @akivamcohen.bsky.social ?
What X is allowing Grok to do is unlawful or regulatory-illegal in multiple jurisdictions, creates clear DSA violations, and continues despite regulator scrutiny. The images do not need to be pornographic, non-consensual sexualised or intimate depictions are enough.

I’m struck by the choice of “adapts,” implying that a rapidly increasing wealth gap is an inevitability with no alternative.
very convenient that the rich ruling class techbros solution to income and wealth inequality will be solved by letting them accumulate even more wealth

Just finished Gene Wolfe’s The Book of the New Sun. Overall excellent and challenging in a good way. I see why it gets as much praise as it does.
My one complaint is the tragically common “holy crap the female characters are all so one-dimensional.”

The most plausible version for events WRT Epstein’s death has always been “you know this only gets worse for you from here, the world’s most notorious pedophile now in federal prison, so we’re gonna make sure you’re unguarded and then you do what you know you need to do.”

I have been blissfully unaware of Jimmy Dore for at least a year but apparently these days he’s basically indistinguishable from Nick Fuentes in terms of how he talks about “Zionists.”
Absolutely disgusting.
Absolutely disgusting.
Jimmy Dore claims that the Australian mass shooting at Bondi Beach was a "false flag" by Mossad, and his proof is "If a Muslim wants to go shoot Jewish people, why would they go to Australia to do it?"
And then he reads a Candace Owens tweet claiming she predicted this.
