The annoying spam texts destroying the Democratic brand:
$678M raised through those spam tactics
$282M to one consulting firm: Mothership Strategies.
$11M to actual campaigns (1.6%)
The party isn’t just treating donors like marks—it’s being fleeced itself yet continues to back Mothership.

The two greatest evils known to mankind, A.I. and the person directly in front of you in line at the post office, have finally teamed up. We’re done.
Woman in line in front of me at the post office is not happy about the cost of shipping. She just whipped out her phone, asked ChatGPT how much it thinks the shipping should cost, and is trying to get the mailman to honor that price.

This is what trans folks mean when we say "let us tell our stories". Will Ferrell used his clout and brand to get this made which obviously is being focused on him but the actual doc is very much Harper's story and most often in her own words. If folks won't give us a seat, pull out a chair.

Then why is CBS "News" handling it at all? If they're not even trying to be journalists, then why bother with the "news" framing? Bring in Ryan Seacrest or whatever, so people understand this is an entertainment event and it is not intended to keep them honestly informed.
CBS News Says It Will Be Up To Vance And Walz To Fact-Check Each Other In Veep Debate
In other words, Vance will be allowed to spew a firehose of lies with no pushback from “moderators,” who won’t actually moderate anything because CBS is scared of the right wing reaction.

This makes me so angry. AI companies can steal the web wholesale and regurgitate it as an anonymous mess, scientific publishers can charge researchers thousands of dollars so their work is accessible, streaming gives pennies to artists, and the IA is the pirate?
Hope everyone gets a chance to read this one today. My colleague Kate Knibbs visited the Internet Archive IRL. It’s in grave danger.
