We are almost at the point where we can let people text and drive, Musk says. In the next month or two, we will allow you to text and drive, essentially, he says to wild applause. No word of Tesla taking legal responsibility if the car crashes when you are texting, which is what actually matters

Optimus robots will just kinda follow criminals around and make sure they don't commit crimes again, so we can eliminate prisons.
These are all things Elon Musk is literally saying.

pretty surprised to hear that (at least according to Ebert) Frankenstein and Predator: Badlands are apparently both 4/4 and the best film adaptations of their respective franchises

It's funny the right is pretending Zohran's some frothing maniac when in reality it's far worse for them: he's got Obama level charisma

Republicans have a big problem- they've so singularly committed to Trump that all these elections become referendums on him, but also don't show up to vote when he's not literally on the ballot

![Screenshot of article that reads: “A Mamdani victory is a serious political problem for those in the party who believe, as we do, that our primary focus must be on flipping red and purple seats blue, expanding the map for Democrats, and creating a path back to Congress and the White House,” Matt Bennett, executive vice president of center-left think tank Third Way, told MSNBC. “The [Democratic Socialists of America] platform — which Mamdani has not repudiated — hands a potent set of weapons to Republican ad makers eager to tie Mamdani-style politics to Democrats running in much tougher places than deep blue New York.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ozma3timm5c32fa7bimb4zaj/bafkreidedpbe5cweyx6x5pz66ypn74fumifyvinjjr4prysjpvopaqi4vi@jpeg)

I’m at Arkansas/16th NW in Washington DC, where a group of federal agents (5-6 cars) are standing around a car with a small child.
The parent doesn’t appear to be present.
One officer told me “to use the hashtag #rapist when you posted the video.” They seem to be waiting for someone.
