President Hernandez was serving 45 years in prison for a plot to distribute 400 tons of cocaine before Trump pardoned him. Meanwhile, Trump is murdering fishermen in small boats for allegedly smuggling far smaller amounts.
“Additionally, I Will be granting a Full and Complete Pardon to Former President Juan Orlando Hernandez who has been, according to many people that | greatly respect, treated very harshly and unfairly.”

New Yorker posts this asinine crap about a guy who made inappropriate sexual comments to female colleagues and who masturbated in front of them. Cancelled? Are you high, @newyorker.com? This guy NEVER went away and the women he messed with took the brunt of backlash in this misogynistic culture.
When a cancelled performer reënters the culture, we expect them to offer us a great work, channelling their newfound clarity into the finest art they’ve ever made. With his new comedy show and début novel, has Louis C.K. met the bar?

Had a Christmas film night last night. One good film + 1 trash. The trash was Underneath the Christmas Lights on Netflix.
Pretty sure it's ai-written.
Entire lines made no sense. Characters laughing at bants that wasn't a joke.

Dangerous signals . . .
President Trump warned airlines and pilots on Saturday that the airspace near Venezuela was closed, ratcheting up what his administration has characterized as a war against drug cartels.
Trump Declares Venezuelan Airspace Closed
President Trump said days earlier that the United States could “very soon” expand its campaign of killing people at sea suspected of drug trafficking to attacking Venezuelan territory.

The way I try to de-AI-ify my classes is that I emphasize at the beginning and throughout the semester that all we're doing is reading some interesting shit other humans have produced, talking about that shit, and writing about it. Humans have been benefitting from that process for centuries w/o AI.

Also a reminder for those who are not aware: the Nazis' first plan for their designated internal enemies was "remigration".

The Nazis quickly discovered that this is impossible, and it's much easier and simpler to just exterminate people.

That is where these ideas inevitably lead.

A reminder for those who are not aware: "remigration" is the process of deporting all non-white people from a country. It includes citizens and is, by definition, ethnic cleansing.

And to be clear: this is not fake. I just screenshot it myself.

So this may seem obvious to you and me, but it's important to repeat and underscore to every normie we can: Trump's goal was always to end *legal* immigration for anyone he deems not white.

A *lot* of Trump voters believed the lie that only "illegal" immigrants would be targeted.
Trump: “I will permanently pause migration from all Third World Countries … denaturalize migrants who undermine domestic tranquility, and deport any Foreign National who is a public charge, security risk, or non-compatible with Western Civilization.“

The time for the US to have had it in it to put a former president in jail for having a coup was before he got on the ballot for the next election! We are not Brazil, there's a lot upholding Trump, including the opposition party to him.
