Folks, Zohran Mamdani—smart guy, reminds me of a young me—you know what he said, I told him, “Zohran, I’m gonna do it, I’m gonna say the shahada,” and he said to me “Mr. President, you should say a third line confirming your belief in the wilayat of Ali,” should we do it folks? Should we say it?

Yes! And it works for hybrids too. Priuses (Prii?) have a reputation for being boring, but I've always found battery maxing to be a fun little game that changes the way you drive.

81 years ago, FDR proposed a second Bill of Rights to guarantee every American the right to employment, healthcare, education, housing, and a living income. His words are as relevant now as they were then. Watch.

Not to mention there's an inaccuracy in the Grok article's second sentence — Hitler did not found the Nazi party. He was sent by the military to infiltrate it and later took control.
the wealthy oligarchs want to control all flow of information to create narratives and beliefs they want to instill into populations, no better illustrated by comparing how elon musks ‘grokipedia’ talks about hitler compared to ‘wikipedia’

Possibly my favorite horror movie of all time for precisely these reasons. That, plus a few great scares and a chilling escalation of its premise.
Pulse is a great and depressingly prescient movie. I don't think any other film captures the soul crushing loneliness of the terminally online. It's probably also the zero year for the liminal horror of the likes of Skinamarink, analog horror, and the work of Jane Schoenbrun.

I did it because the government isn’t.
