One of the many bitter pills to swallow is that there will be not one single consequence for Jerry Seinfeld basically complimenting the KKK and equating them to the phrase Free Palestine. There will be little, if any, media pushback. It’s terrible.

I guess it was smart of the Supreme Court to release its most racist decision since Plessy on the same day it was confirmed that Trump used his signature in the place of a vagina in his pedophile love letter/birthday card.

I can't believe I need to have an AI policy! I made it pretty short though: Using AI is cheating, yourself mostly. In addition to the environmental blight created by AI, it makes no sense to use it in your intellectual and creative work. Why would you outsource your innate intelligence?

What Danielle said.

According to the Yale Budget Lab, the average effective tariff rate in this economy right now is 18.2%

Let me put that another way.

President Trump has raised taxes on American businesses and consumers by -- on average -- 18.2%
A thing I really need people to keep in mind: 15% tariffs are high, historically speaking. 10% tariffs are high.

The average effective tariff rate before this term was just over 2%. Anything double-digits is high!

Trump promised to build concentration camps when he campaigned last year, and the media largely ignored it or acted as though that was an overreaction, and a lot of voters were willfully ignorant of anything he actually said.

And he's building concentration camps.

And remember, taxpayers are the ones who pay the settlements in these lawsuits, which ran over $200,000,000 for the NYPD just in the last year.

I wonder if the costs came out of their own budget or retirement funds they might be a little more circumspect.
