When did pedophilia become a partisan issue?

The American people deserve to know the full truth about Jeffrey Epstein and every powerful person who enabled him.

Every name. Every flight log. Every cover up. All of it.

Allowing "blood libel" to be generalised from a very specific Medieval European conspiracy into "anybody getting mad at me ever" is one of the most shocking pieces of historical revisionism of my life

Hoekstra Out Of Canada!
Lying Pete Hoekstra is now dropping f bombs in his attacks on Canada.
He has the gall to accuse of us foreign interference. That was his entire MO when he was ambassador to the Netherlands. They sent him packing.
Canada needs to give this guy the bum's rush.

I cannot tell you how many tech journalists at prominent media organizations do not understand this
Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros.

The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.

Mark Walter, principal owner of the Los Angeles Dodgers, serves as CEO of Guggenheim Partners, which holds ~$12 million stake in the GEO Group, a private prison corporation that operates ICE detention centers.

This is why the Dodgers won’t directly condemn the raids destroying immigrant families.
I don’t mind that the owners of the Dodgers are squirming right now.

Because they also own a piece of a growing system of concentration camps that hold folks like me in dark, painful, & deadly environments.

Jobs said the Mac is a "bicycle for the mind". That vision of the Mac is now buried deeper than he is, but I suppose Linux is something akin to being a cyclist.

Everybody knows you're getting there in half the time they are, and for free, but they'll be fucked if they're ever trying it.
I am not going to tell you to use Linux, but what I am going to tell is you is it is *very* satisfying being your computer's boss and not the other way around.

I'm struck more and more by how much the Trump administration is handing global leadership to China. He is yeilding leadership in intl dev/aid to China, alienating allies who turn to China and doing damage to the US gov, economy & society that will take generations to fix, while China races ahead.

Democrats insisting that Gavin Newsom is their only hope need to start looking elsewhere because NO. This guy is pure slime and no one who truly cares about human rights will vote for him. There are others like Pritzker, better people in every way, so support *them*
