Just want to point out how funny/sad it is that the same people who will refuse to refer to a trans woman as "she" have no problem calling ChatGPT "she."
If we are banning cell phones for kids we need to be talking about banning chatbots for boomers

Drip/pour over coffee is a very good and I want an apology from all the euros who have trashed it over the years. Especially the ones who tried to claim that an Americano is somehow an acceptable substitute
"In a nation renowned for sophisticated tastes, the acerbic, harsh espresso served in many bistros was not just surprising, but seemingly inexplicable."
This is why I always used to chuckle when Parisians offhandedly dissed Starbucks. The problem is that the French think their coffee is good.

This sale of CenturyLink Fiber to AT&T under the Quantum Fiber name has been nothing but shit. The service has been more unstable in the last year or so that my previous 2 years with Lumen owned CenturyLink. Customer service has been not great. Had an issue today with speeds and same BS from CS rep.

Tonight's even more proof the mainstream reporters who are still on Twitter are suffering from a brain problem akin Havana Syndrome that is preventing them from accurately doing their jobs. They are being cooked alive by a snuff-focused apartheid algorithm.

New: The FBI is quietly urging ICE agents to properly ID themselves in the field.
In a bulletin to law enforcement last month, it warned of criminals posing as ICE to rob, rape, kidnap—a problem it says now demands national coordination to confront.

There were at least two ceasefires under Biden! In which more than five times as many living Israeli hostages were released in exchange for 240 Palestinians! Has everyone forgotten this?
Also, ceasefires have happened under prior Presidents! The day he gets Palestine their own country he can be told he's the most special boy deserving of a shiny prize.

pundits spent the last decade warning america that lefty wokeism was our generation’s chief danger and now that it’s indisputable that rightwing fascism is and always was the real threat, they have to remove political valance from the word “woke” so that they can pretend they were right all along.
Honesty, I have no idea what "woke" means in the first place, other than that it's something Trump hates. And "woke right" makes even less sense to me. What's with this nomenclature?

RFK Jr. always planned to do this. He lied to senators to gain confirmation so he could do this. He is not a vaccine "skeptic." He is a anti-vaccine extremist bent on doing whatever it takes to fulfill his obsessive crusade against vaccines.

Pretty striking to consider the amount of Polite Centrist consternation over Bluesky compared to Truth Social, Gab or Parler.
If you want to wring your hands over social media radicalization, fine. But at least compare apples to apples.

Charlie Kirk was a white supremacist who pushed the racist Great Replacement Theory. Kirk was vociferously anti-LGBTQ. Kirk's final words were to besmirch Black people.
Stop this revisionism. People who say bad things don't deserve to be murdered, but they also don't deserve to be praised either.
