JACK SMITH ON MARSHA BLACKBURN: “False & misleading — I did not choose those members of Congress, President Trump did.”

@MarshaBlackburn & @SenatorHagerty tried to grab millions and get Jack disbarred… for protecting 🇺🇸 after the insurrection Trump called them to help him with.

My wife just suggested a feature for video doorbells. Add a squirt gun for people you don't want to see.

VAD I HELVETE ÄR EN KNARKBÅT?!?

Om ni tom i notisen skriver att ni inte sett några bevis på att båtarna smugglade narkotika, varför kallar ni det knarkbåt i rubriken.

@TOrynski The thing is, there are Israeli politicians only in Israel, but Jewish politicians in many countries. Also most Israeli politicians are in fact Jewish. I would have written "Israeli politician here".

En grej med året som gått är vi nog inte haft två år i rad med så få mord sedan 1960-talet.

Detta trots decembers vansinnesdåd och den rasistiska masskjutningen i Örebro.

Det nya multikulturella Sverige levererar mer trygghet än vad debatten ger sken av.

There’s no party like the boarding party
Finnish police forces have boarded and seized the 132-meter-long Russian shadow fleet cargo vessel Fitburg moments after it destroyed 5 submarine telecommunication cables between Finland and Estonia by dragging its anchor on the seabed. www.hs.fi/suomi/art-20...
Tämä tiedetään | Venäjä tarjoaa apua kaapelirikosta epäillyn laivan miehistölle
Koostimme lyhyesti yhteen, mitä keskiviikon kaapelivaurioista ja epäillystä aluksesta tiedetään.

And the ship was transporting sanctioned goods from the big asshole country (Russia) to small asshole country (Israel).

The cargo ship Fitburg that was detained yesterday on suspicion of damaging Baltic fiber communication has been found to carry sanctioned steel products from russia (presumably to Israel, which was its declared destination).

just so it's clear: this is the exact core function of genAI

Fascist government and climate deniers love it because it can produce the aesthetics of knowledge without any actual tendency towards truth. It is automated denialism.

Shame on every climate scientist promoting its use (there are lots)
Bob and I were among the hundreds of researchers that were supposed to conduct the 6th U.S. National Climate Assessment. Now it looks like they're gonna produce it with a few people and Grok? Communities need rigorous and accurate information about climate change. This will put communities at risk.

sorry to grimpost so soon into the year but we truly gotta fight back against the people who are proudly encouraging use of the mistake generator and that's going to mean criticising some people we formerly respected as people who like the idea of science or truth or evidence

I buy insurance through the marketplace with no subsidies. My premium is going up by 35%, and my out-of-pocket max is going up by 15%. I can grudgingly afford this, but this is going be awful for a whole lot of people.

Whenever Russia proposes a deal that "you have to take cos the next will be worse", everyone ignores that it's always better than the last one. E.g. the number of soldiers we say Ukraine can have has gone from 80k, to 120k to 500k to now unlimited.

Amazing how it seems to slide by.
