The LAPD is citing truancy laws in an attempt to squash the ongoing school walkouts against ICE. The LAPD is also threatening to arrest any parents or adults who support the kids in their acts of civil disobedience.

I just caught up to Obama saying that "aliens are real", so he just said the shit that everybody with a brain says huh, and that was a topic of discussion? Pathetic.

It's so good that the AI push is just obviously about turning everyone in the world into Sims for the ultra-rich to boss around. They keep pushing it into everything like "soon we're gonna make it so you can fire a bunch of people and they can't make a living off of their skills"

This has gotta break soon right. Like... not even just "this is inconveniencing me a lot", which it is. But like, shifting your entire business on a dime like this... this isn't how things work. It can't be a real thing undergirding that demand, there's a flim flam going on.

We live in a tent without electricity. Solar panels are the only thing that keeps us from overheating when it starts getting 90 in the sun. We need a new panel
Our portable solar panel that we got last year is slowly degrading and we need a new one to make sure we can run a fan for our dogs during the AZ heat, but we don't have it in our budget. Can we help us get some power again for us and the pups?

You know what I have to say when CheeseParade, a channel that does goofy skits and often involve a person in a costume that is a wedge of cheese with googly eyes, releases a video tangentially related to politics and the Epstein files?

I say "New sketch every Monday."

Just did this.

"Rude" is essentially a shadowban and is capriciously applied.

"Rude or impolite, including crude language and disrespectful comments, without constructive purpose."

Dudes, your CEO was shrieking "Waffles!" at people.

Just saw an example of where my updated concept of propaganda really works. If you are against the idea of a wave of anti queerness you have to reject the prompt to write about how good it is to have a regular marriage even if it seems to come from a good place

It's great that Will Stancil's entire bit is undone if you just assume people have like working memories, but leftists on here have tried to accept him like 9 times so maybe he's onto something

I dunno if people think "homophobia but from the left" is slick but it isn't. "Why don't gay and trans people just trust us implicitly???? We only continually imply that being gay is bad and gross, what's wrong about that?"

The problem with people who do this is that you're yelling at us as if we're the ones who control the votes you need. The people you're losing by doing this shit aren't us. There are lots of other people who you don't get to yell at but who are thinking the same shit. How are you reaching them?

Fun fact: the best stats available suggest that the unemployment rate for US trans people is comparable to the Great Depression.

Another fun fact: the best stats available aren’t very good because the Bureau of Labor Statistics had never bothered to measure the trans unemployment rate.
there is an employment crisis among trans women and there always has been, but good luck getting people to see it
Still living this life after almost 8 months. A professional I know who works almost exclusively with trans people said almost all of them are unemployed.

One thing that's funny to me about the Hasan thing is that Gavin Newsom is awful. So contingent on this question is the idea that Democrats decided to nominate the worst (realistic) person currently declared, which doesn't make it sound like we're in a good place to start with.

It's somewhat distressing the frequency that people will like show you a thing and go "see you're arguing against yourself" and you look at it and they aren't, that isn't true. You're not arguing actual things happening, you're like vibe arguing. It's very strange.

Jaywalking in the United States is a made up "crime" that was literally a psyop campaign....

funded by automakers

because their cars were killing pedestrians

So they turned it back around on the victims. "Jay" was a negative slang at the time for someone who was a gullible rural person.
I'm not especially opposed to driverless cabs, but I'm fucked if I'm giving up my ancestral British right to cross the road anywhere if it's safe for me to do so. "Jaywalking" isn't a thing or a crime here, techbros, so your magic cars will have to learn to deal with that.
Politics London discussing driverless taxis casually referring to “jaywalking pedestrians”.

Jaywalking is not a thing in UK law.

Transport for London and Government had better not be asleep at the wheel on this.

This part is so funny to me. "He covered up his swastika tattoo... with ANOTHER swastika!!!!"
Learning that Platner covered his Nazi tattoo with some “norse-celtic” bullshit is not convincing me that he was ever getting any tattoos “accidentally”
