Proud creation of stupid stories (also on Tumblr)
After designing (or rather paying their engineers to design) a new powerful tool in AI, which can be used to automate all sorts of unpleasant tasks, the powers that be decided to use it to automate creativity, the thing it was the worst at and which people least wanted to be automated.

Putting Tulsi Gabbard in charge of our intelligence services is like putting a convicted felon, rapist and reality TV star in charge of our whole coun—oh, never mind.

Turns out when Trump spoke about 'Black jobs,' he was not talking about his cabinet.

![The image is a tweet from Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) that reads:
“This is good, actually. She barely shows up and doesn’t do the reading.
To borrow a phrase I saw elsewhere, it’s like giving someone an unplugged controller.”
Below her tweet is a quote tweet of CNBC (@CNBC), which states:
“Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene tapped to work with Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy as new DOGE subcommittee chair [link].”
The CNBC tweet is timestamped 14 hours ago from the time of the screenshot.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:xjc7mkotpenvhh6ffewkdpyn/bafkreihbkmq5az3c2qm4ytifcvh25wj4mgjvdfnum47m3syzfedzthgflm@jpeg)

It’s pretty fun how we heard a lot about RFK jr and then those numbers came out showing he hurt Trump more than Biden and then suddenly we didn’t hear about RFK jr anymore

Trump is already talking about using the Insurrection Act on his first day in office, if he is reelected, to put down any civil protests. I can’t stress this enough.

1. An attorney general is usually focused on court cases and not personally patrolling the streets
2. His lawyers forgot to ask for a jury trial, so that’s on them
3. Running for office does not, in fact, mean you’re immune from prosecution
4. This is all so incredibly stupid

Trump: You have an attorney general sitting here all day, while people are being killed in the street. I don't have a jury — I want a jury. She sued me under a statute that doesn't have a jury. You are trying to keep me on the stand as election interference. (MRL)

I've called out antiblackness within the left, so I'm damned sure going to call out antisemitism when I see it.
Right now, our Muslim students are terrified and traumatized, so are our Black students... and so are our Jewish students.
We need to stop ridiculing folks' justified fears. It's ugly.

Y'all, discoverability is harder than ever. With Twitter all but gone and publishing being --in a mood-- your favorite authors are floundering. We don't know how to reach our fans or find new readers. Telling someone about a book you love is a really big deal. That's the #1 reason people buy books!
