You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink, but you CAN make it swim, but you CAN'T make it backstroke. Life is funny like that.

Ta-Nehisi Coates has a predictably wonderful essay about the political class's reaction to the death of Charlie Kirk. to quote a post I saw on here a few weeks back, "we're gonna need a bigger Reconstruction"

Charlie Kirk, Redeemed: A Political Class Finds Its Lost Cause
By ignoring the rhetoric and actions of the Turning Point USA founder, pundits and politicians are sanitizing his legacy.

I've worked on the far-right beat for nearly 10 years now, and I've had to handle sorting through a lot of misinformation on politically motivated violence. And this is by far the worst instance of it, including from a lot of people who should really know better.

The white students who are struggling to make ends meet are not struggling because Black and immigrant students got into our university. They are struggling because of a shitty social safety net & high tuition because people like Andreesen don't pay sufficient taxes/the state doesn't pay its share.

Found a really weird sticker
Sticker on a yellow road sign. The sticker depicts Ralph Wiggum standing with arms akimbo. He wears a nametag identifying him as "Mayor." there is a fly on his head. In front of his face is imposed a grainy photograph of a woman's face. The woman has light skin, thin eyebrows, and is grinning.

So i just watched this movie, and the description here is... not correct!
Hulu menu entry for the movie "Multiple Maniacs" The description reads "Three determined women, Divine, Cookie and Mink Stole, set out to solve the Sharon Tate Murders."

It's clear that the Trump administration denied due process to the migrants it banished to El Salvador *precisely because* any measure of judicial oversight would've proved their innocence immediately.

Deported, imprisoned, and condemned to hard labor—for a soccer tattoo. slate.com/news-and-pol...
We’re Finally Seeing the “Evidence” Against the Migrants Deported by Trump. It’s Unbelievable.
The Trump admin said a soccer player had a gang tattoo. It’s a tattoo of Real Madrid’s logo.

Pencil drawing of Hurly T. Snott, a blobby little cartoon goober. He has been shot in the head and is in a pose similar to the painting The Death of Marat by Jaques-Louis David.

Wire of me
Their studio mate Howell's "Hrrmph" causes Court Ewing to break the pot they're spinning. Thought bubbles reveal their inner monologue: "His every noise: a piano hammer falls on the wire of me." Wiping their hands with a towel, they say, "I must be heading out soon," to which Howell says, "To market? We want for eggs and milk." A cat wakes up beneath the table. An air of tension contrasts with the beauty and openness of the studio.

These videos can be dangerous, causing mass panic, outrage, danger, and enmity where it doesn’t need to be. It’s more urgent than ever that we learn to question what we see and avoid sharing things we cannot confirm or just outright created by AI.
