I just did the dumbest thing of my entire career to prove a much more serious point.
I tricked ChatGPT and Google, and made them tell other users I’m a competitive hot-dog-eating world champion
People are using this trick on a massive scale to make AI tell you lies. I’ll explain how I did it

I spent my childhood inside of American concentration camps. I know one when I see one. And that is what ICE is building.

A system built to eat people never stops eating people.
The concentration camps will not only be for immigrants, documented or otherwise. They already aren't.
They won't only be for brown and Black people.
The targets will keep expanding. It will not end.
The only way it will is if we stop it. Both in and out of the system. There is no other way.

How is this even possible? Rep. Haley Stevens, who is running for #MISen, "seemed generally impressed with the staff" at an ICE detention facility, per the @michiganadvance.com.
At the same event, Rep. Hillary Scholten spoke of a man "being kept in a freezing room where he couldn’t feel his toes."

The Death Star board room scene is low key the funniest scene in cinematic history. It’s a work meeting with an evil samurai wizard everyone else finds mildly annoying and when his manager tells him to stop killing a coworker with his magicka, he has to listen.

This is directly related to the ability of the fascist state to actually wield & hold power & I really wish we talked about it more consistently in those terms. The actual implementation of fascist futures is what’s at stake here.

"Peace, RAM, and Bread" was the pivotal 2028 slogan of AOC and the DSA, addressing the urgent demands of the American population during revolution. It promised an end to the occupation (peace), redistribution of DDR5 sticks from data centers to gamers (RAM), and relief from food shortages (bread).

This is such a good article. A brief and concise explanation of how corruption and political rot oozes out of both parties as they actively and strategically resist being held accountable for any wrongdoing no matter how damaging and heinous it is.
Guys I found the best Epstein Files email. The one that illuminates an elite class that's cocooned themselves into an unaccountable shell of wealth and privilege, fighting to protect their secrets and offenses.
I could write a novel about this email.

AOC @aoc.bsky.social is one of the smartest politicians I’ve seen, and one of the best speakers. The people she’s fighting are absolutely terrified of her, including those who control most American media. That’s why they do things like this, something they’d never do to one of theirs.

how does someone mow down a family of four, blame the car (no issue was found), transfer real estate to Nevada LLCs to avoid compensating the victims' families, and then walk away with nothing more than probation?
Do YOU have an aging friend/relative who should stop driving? Tell them this story from San Francisco. Ask how they will feel if they kill an entire family.
But don't tell them that even then, they'll be forgiven and be able to drive again.
This verdict is obscene.

Wildly fluctuating prices used to be a hallmark of collapsing economies but are now proof of Business Genius Innovation
(5/11) Walmart, Whole Foods, and Kohls are switching to electronic shelf labels that can display dynamic prices. Kroger deployed them with Microsoft AI—a setup a 2024 Senate inquiry warned could enable “surge pricing” via facial recognition. (Kroger claims it will only lower prices.)
