SEATTLE: If you know someone who lives in Seattle and guess they probably voted for Katie Wilson for Mayor, your contribution to this fight is to text them this information about making sure they voted with their signature on the envelope! TEXT them NOW.
There are 1,700 ballots that need signature confirmation. That is enough to change the election.

Go. Check. Your. Ballot.

As someone who took a couple of AI classes in 2002, this sums it up for me.

"In my opinion, [human-level AI] will be achieved only when we have demeaned and debased human intelligence to the degree that a machine might be able to emulate whats left."

I regretfully picked up the latest issue of Skeptic because I vaguely remember it being of interest and wanted some mags.

It was a dumpster fire of Libertarian bias thinly masked as unbiased, and many of the articles seemingly written by ChatGPT, all the article illustrations were AI generated.

In response to this claim that the "strategy didn't work."

The people were on our side. We were building momentum to help save our democracy. We could have won - the premium increase notices were just starting.

And giving in now will embolden him. Things will likely get worse.

Standing up to a tyrant - who is willing to impose pain as leverage to compel loyalty or acquiescence - is hard. You can convince yourself that yielding stops the pain and brings you back to "normal".

But there is no "normal". Submission emboldens the tyrant. The threat grows.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

They’re wearing masks so they can’t be prosecuted later. As long as they think they can’t be prosecuted, their crimes will intensify. They will torture, starve and kill, as they have already, on greater and greater scale.

I’ve come to believe that we need to gather considerable forces and a campaign to demand the removal of face masks by ICE, Border Patrol, FBI and police.

It is a practice in conflict with the principles of transparency & accountability that are central to the concept of democracy.
Video on social media shows an immigration agent pulling a gun in Little Village and holding it to the side — which is not an appropriate or safe way to hold a gun. (Among other issues.)

Walmart Thanksgiving box in 2025 is 25% less than 2024.

It contains half the items of 2024.

Making it actually 50% more expensive than 2024.

Working on a I.C.E. kidnap case right now—2 sons, whose mother called on me.

It’s very clear both Uber and Waymo have provided the government my clients’ location via these ride sharing company’s ✨massive✨ tech surveillance op.

No warrant—just pure cooperation.

Stay woke, y’all.

Waymo is I.C.E.

Had the weirdest dream where I was cast as an actor in James Gunn’s next DC tv show but I kept getting lost on set, lost my shoes (“James, does my character wear shoes?”), all to the point that James eventually gave me glasses with sugar lenses because all I was going to get was punched in the face.

I legit can’t figure out the play on these FAA flight cancellations. Who’s the White House trying to pressure. And who do they think people are gonna get mad at when Thanksgiving goes down the drain?

“You now get a free Optimus and it’s just going to follow you around and stop you from doing crime,” Musk said. “You don’t have to put people in prisons and stuff. It’s really wild to think of the possibilities.”

Brilliant vision, Elon! Nothing creepy about that whatsoever
