Reminder that almost a quarter century ago, Schumer voted for the Hague Invasion Act, declaring that the US would militarily invade the Hague were it ever to be prosecuted by ICC for war crimes.

Biden did too, it was an overwhelmingly bipartisan agreement to be unaccountable to international law.
Look at how many names on this list are *still in power*, still kicking around. They weren't exactly young then, but now a lot of them are much much richer.

It's interesting that people just totally forgot that masking in 2020 literally drove one strain of flu extinct. It no longer exists, because people wore masks.

And, that after a bunch of covid infections, they find it very hard to understand why you'd mention masks when talking about the flu

For almost a year, this flu season was known to be a bad one. A year worth of people warning "hey, this flu season is going to be really bad"

And yet, look at how few people masked for thanksgiving. How many traveled unmasked to get there and back.

For about a year, people knew that this flu season was going to be especially bad. Between a new strain *and* anti-vax fuckery, the writing was very big on the wall that this would be a very bad flu season.

Have you noticed any increase in number of people masking now, in flu season?

Portmanteau is a portmanteau of "Portland" and "manatee"

It refers to the 1907 Manatee War that destroyed Portland, twice, in one summer.

A recurring “AI” evangelist tactic is using it for tasks that were already solved by tech that is more deterministic, faster, and uses less energy, but has been downgraded or de-emphasised in recent years by software companies

Like, we genuinely used to have better search and spellcheck.

“AI did this miraculous thing! It did an amazing job with my personal data!”

“Did you try a straightforward search or a built-in feature before letting an unvetted tool made by pilled-up dude-bros loose on your private info and work?”

“No, why would I do that? You crazy.”

Like, the nazi pedophile *obviously* has a corroded and fucked up soul, you can tell because he's a nazi and a pedophile. It's pretty obvious.

But what about the guy who looks at him and sincerely can't imagine there are things that could be *wildly* improved, things easily achievable.

Imagine looking at the previous president, gleefully engaging in a genocide he'd advocated for his entire miserable life, at the current president gleefully being an absolute fucking slime mold, and truly not being able to imagine what a better future would look like.

Think about how fucking corroded your soul would have to be to look at this administration of nazis and pedophiles and truly think that better things are not possible.

That there are not fucking *orders of magnitude* of improvement possible. That this, now, is at all close to doing the best we can

A former staffer said that U.S. officials would not be performing a formal occupation like in Iraq. “We’re going to tell them: ‘Hey, this is what you have to do in order for there not to be another strike. That’s what [Trump] sees as running the country.” www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Deleted a repost of a thread.

Looking closer, the person is comfortable sharing AI images & video. Was the thread also AI? Was it accurate?

I’d rather not take the chance and share it.

Journalists, keep this in mind. “Fun” AI videos & images undercut your credibility.

As the article points out, the entire supposed point of REAL ID was that it would prove you were who you said you were, and that you were a citizen or legal immigrant.

It's invasive, requires A LOT of documentation & admin burden on both people & states, and is apparently... worthless to DHS.

It was always obvious for the past decade that the never Trumper grifters would begin consolidating with the vote blue no matter who grifters, and all the warnings that this was very extremely obviously happening got ignored by the miserable dipshits.

By the way, this is another reason why inviting the Lincoln Project ghouls and Bulwark people into “the tent” is a horrible idea. They love this shit. This is all they wanted to keep doing the whole time.
