It's a campaign of terror.
Her terror (and the terror of entire communities, forced into hiding) is not incidental.
It is a product they are manufacturing, a key part of the spectacle for their intended audience.
Which is the terrorized, but also the terror consumers.

Agents in Key Largo, Florida ripped this woman wearing medical scrubs out of her car as she screamed she is a US citizen. Agents cuffed her and put her in one of their cars.
She was eventually let go, per David Goodhue of the Miami Herald, who also took this footage:

Trying to update my name with Etsy and boy, was that a mistake. Why would you expect ID’s from my previous name to be un-expired? This was not on my radar for “Things to Update ASAP” when I had my shop on vacation mode for over a year….

An Oregon pilot program giving cash to homeless youths sees a staggering reduction in homelessness. The program gave participants $1,000 cash payments each month for two years, and at the end of the project's first phase, 91% of participants reported being in stable housing.

The complaint names Pete Hegseth as the perpetrator, saying he “was responsible for ordering the bombing of boats like those of Alejandro Carranza Medina and the murder of all those on such boats.” It also claims that Hegseth’s conduct was “ratified” by Trump.

A *huge* vaccine victory. I've been writing on this for years; Australia has seen remarkable progress in cervical cancer prevention with the HPV vaccine. I love seeing science triumph like this.
Australia recorded ZERO cases of cervical cancer in women under 25 for the first time since they started tracking the cancer in the 80s.
This is the power of vaccines.
The HPV vaccine is extremely effective at preventing cancer.
Viruses can be oncogenic. Get your vaccines and protect yourself!

Every prompt to chatbot software is “generate me some text.” If it generated you some text, it performed its function correctly. It never lies, it never wants anything, it’s text generating software that generates text.
Not wanting to disappoint you so much that it lies is the last quality I want in a computer.

I don't know how many of you are familiar w/ the Too Good to Go app, which allows you to find restaurants & stores in your area that are selling surprise bags of surplus food at discounted prices, but they now also have discounted foods for delivery! (Like, shipped, not like Postmates.) It's great.

Any use of genAI in a project is a damning sign that the person responsible would rather turn the whole thing into a steaming hot pile of dogshit than take the time and effort to learn and care about what they are doing. It's only a matter of time.
