The White House says the Kennedy Center board vote was “unanimous”…
BULLSHIT.
@repbeatty.bsky.social, a Congressional member of the board, was on the call. They muted her and didn't let her voice opposition.
This is beyond absurd, totally illegal, and a disgrace to the memory and legacy of JFK.

If you are ever witness to a mass shooting, and there are some people unable to retreat, wait until they reload/aim/whatever/anything but shooting and just run bodily into them. It doesn't require any technique, just a determination to fuck up someone's aim. You will get hurt,

I don't know if Harris can or should win the Democratic nomination, but I like the idea of her running. We need to set some parameters around this, dare people to do better. If you are worse than Harris, we obliterate you. If you are better, yay, you get the nomination. #uspol

This was the true purpose of DOGE. They took our information & consolidated it for easy access. The redundancy in the different federal agencies were firewalls to protect our privacy.

I guess this needs to be said but: work requirements for SNAP and then also expecting people to cook from scratch are not compatible policy goals.
Imagine making someone work as a night stocker at a grocery store, and then not allowing them to buy caffeinated beverages. #snap #uspol

Folks often ask if AI can pass as human, but little do we consider if humans can pass for AI, and would anyone would want to slap rent on that.
“The work was emotionally exhausting, with chat users confiding intimate details about their real-life relationships, as well as their own emotional trauma, falsely believing they were talking to an unfeeling AI chatbot.”

Reviews are the lifeblood of indie authors.
In the last few years, reviews have trickled to a near standstill, which creates a conundrum: need readers to get reviews, but need reviews to get readers.
If you take the time to write even a single sentence review, YOU ARE AMAZING THANK YOU I LOVE YOU

"I can't afford to support my favorite author right now, I—"
Reviews.
Reviews are free AND they are a gift to authors that can keep on giving (i.e., exposure, marketing, algo boosts, etc.)
Please, give the gift of reviews to your authors this holiday season. It really can make a difference!

Walmart sells 11-ounce bags of Chex Cheesy Pizza Snack Mix for less than $4. In North Carolina prisons, a 4.25-ounce bag of that same product costs $8.75.
That's less than half the product for 2x the price.
