A large proportion had long rap sheets. This is unsurprising, who else do you expect to be looting a shoezone at 2pm on a Sunday

You do get the impression that some of the people 'warning' of civil war, actually desire one huh
Good article this. Racism really is the reverse of a performance-enhancing drug, the mad, stupid shit it leads people to believe in and to do:
‘Once whispered, now discussed’: the rise of dubious claims of civil war in the UK
Dystopian warnings once reserved for the far right have found a wider audience – but there are good reasons for scepticism

It definitely set off a red flag for me
I reached out to the author of this viral Reddit post thinking there might be a story in it. He sent me an employee badge that Gemini flagged as being AI-generated and supporting documents that I suspect were also generated by AI. Be careful out there folks!

This makes me think about how so often people go into the show thinking their jobs (e.g., police, psychologist, magician etc.) will help them find traitors, when it wasn't until the celeb series that we actually saw useful careers: people who have worked in television production

If Maduro is in custody my expectation is the admin will try to hold Dumb Nuremberg. They'll make it a judicial referendum on fentanyl and try to blame Maduro for the deaths from the opiate crisis.

grim posthumous scenario i had not previously considered: you post a picture of the missile headed straight for you, and are memorialized by a bunch of random assholes complaining about alt text
![A Bluesky user based in Venezuela posted 'I live near a military air base and five earth-shaking explosions were just heart.'
User @thenordic.bsky.social (a random asshole) replied 'was it too hard for you to to [sic] add a link?' along with a link to an AP piece.

There is just no justification for remaining on X now. It supports and enables extremism.
Ye’s pro Hitler song is racking up millions of views on X as other platforms struggle to remove it.
Even as platforms like Spotify and soundcloud attempt to remove the song, it’s continuing to spread through re-uploads and re-recording.

I don't recall off hand who made the point about AI being, more than anything else, a machine for displacing responsibility. That increasingly looks like its most reliable feature
This is a thread of major media outlets falsely anthropomorphising the "Grok" chatbot program and in doing so, actively and directly removing responsibility and accountability from individual people working at X who created a child pornography generator (Elon Musk, Nikita Bier etc)
