The AI we are all being sold is not intelligent. It will never create anything new. No creativity means no intelligence. It’s just fancy indexing and word association programming. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

I used to say Republicans don't care if we live or die. It is now clear that they want us to die.

So a lot is messed up because the Amazon cloud services are broken. A hundred-odd years ago we passed laws against monopolies for a reason.

It’s weird walking around and everything looks normal. Because it’s not. This country is coming apart. Trump is smashing it to bits, and the Republicans are cheering him on with glee. Our media is cowardly if not fully complicit, and most Democrats are sleepwalking. I’m losing faith.

If universities are hotbeds of radical leftist indoctrination, why was Charlie Kirk allowed to speak at them? Because truth is, almost anyone can speak at a college, particularly a state school. They just need a campus sponsor. You’re doing it outdoors? Usually even easier to get permission.

Turning Point USA made a literal watch list of professors, primarily women, queer folks and people of color, and made us targets of political violence. I’ve received hate mail and harassment and death threats off and on for nearly a decade in part due to that man’s organization so 🤷🏽♀️

Any word from the NRA? Shouldn’t they be fighting tyranny right about now? Probably packing their gear. That can take a while.

It's not artificial intelligence. It's a fancy word association program. Call things what they are.

Mom hands me a pepper from her garden. “Taste this to see how hot it is.” I cut off a tiny piece - and it’s very hot! I ask her what it is, and she says, “It’s called Ghost, or something like that.”
Ok, thanks Mom.

There is no way you can police all the immigrants in America without policing all Americans. There is no way you increase ICE's budget ten times without ICE becoming an occupying army. An occupying army not restrained by any court, and only loyal to Trump.
Yes, it's fascism.

Before the election I said Republicans don’t care if you live or die. Now it’s clear, they actually want you to die.

I know it's been said but it bears repeating a lot: By threatening Walmart, telling them to "eat" the tariffs and not raise prices, Trump is admitting American businesses pay the tariff on imported goods, not the exporting country.

This is white supremacy.
NEW: As the Trump admin is flying Afrikaners here today to be resettled as "refugees," @Sec_Noem is terminating Temporary Protected Status for Afghanistan — meaning they may start deporting women and allies who protected our troops to the Taliban to be persecuted or killed!

Mercantilism - the belief that there is only so much wealth in the world (they ain’t making any new gold) and you must horde all you can. Thoroughly discredited by, well, centuries of capitalism. Revived by a guy who thinks you have too many dolls and too many pencils.

The last couple of days of moving are something else. Where does all of this stuff keep coming from? How am I still filling trash bags? And my steps; T -4 12k; T -3 13k; T -2 18k. I’m going to sleep for a couple of days after closing.

Don’t know if I’ve ever been to the grocery store on Valentines Day. It’s insane. You’d think a big snow storm was coming!

You know who I blame? Ronald Reagan. It was more important to him to break the unions than to support the safety of American fliers. The current shortage of controllers and the overwork of the current ones goes right back to that strike. #DCplanecrash
