What the actual fuck, Apple
Not satisfied with just destroying their own brand goodwill, OS companies are now using AI to try to destroy the good names of the apps users install. (Scrivener taking out adds to explain how it has no AI but Apple adds some anyway.)

The fix was in when they made him Chief Justice during the Dubya years.

The only thing that the Cheneys of that era are mad about is that Tangerine Caligula is a shit flinging monkey and not a "Compassionate Conservative".
There’s one person squarely to blame for Trump’s corruption, authoritarianism & assault on democracy: John Roberts. He’s enabled so much of Trump’s lawlessness while somehow escaping accountability for it

This is all John Roberts’ fault
Trump owes his corrupt and abusive reign to one man.

"I'm ICE, boys"

The same audacity as the drunk fool (with his kids in his truck) down in Florida. I'm sure there's a particular word for this level of self assured arrogance.
"they used several methods to find people who were attempting to solicit a 17-year-old girl for sex" OF COURSE IT'S PEDOCON THEORY
ICE employee among 16 men arrested in Bloomington sex trafficking sting, police say.
"When he was arrested, he said, 'I'm ICE, boys,'" Hodges said during a press conference Tuesday. "Well, unfortunately for him, we locked him up."

I'm not a reporter nor do I play one on TV but I know I would have said "Bitch, are you for real??" the very moment he puked that out of his piehole and poked his toddler finger in her direction.

What's he going to do? Throw you all out of the plane? Grow a spine.
We saw on Friday elite solidarity rather than professional solidarity when Trump called a female reporter “piggy” and not a single one of her colleagues came to her defense—presumably because they didn’t want to threaten their own proximity to power.
Moral rot in elite journalism is killing the whole field
The Nuzzi/RFK Jr. mess and the revelation of Esptein's journo pals lay bare a profound moral absence at the heart of our free press.

Trump in response to an Epstein question: "ABC, your company, your crappy company is one of the perpetrators. I think the license should be taken away from ABC because your news is so fake and so wrong. And we have a great commissioner, a chairman, who should take a look at that."

Good.
Whoa: A federal court just barred Texas from using its new congressional map, drawn by the GOP to target Dems.

"Substantial evidence shows that Texas racially gerrymandered the 2025 Map."

Court says the old map must be used in 2026. Appeals are certain. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Why am I so against generative AI in games?

Because I simply do not want my initial reaction to art to be one of suspicion and scrutiny, AI slop is fundamentally damaging my relationship to art and artistry, and I am deeply resentful that it is forcing me to be guarded when I should be wowed.

Goofy fake names and kooky get-ups — they didn't much care about fooling anybody. This is fun for them; ridiculing First Nations people while flipping the bird at public health is just blowing a raspberry atop a merry jape, "owning the libs" to amuse their slack-jawed fans.

Of course I find a stray cat when I'm long off of FB and can't post to see if anyone in my neighborhood is missing a wee muffin.

I tried to get both of my adult kids out a few times years ago but my idiot American ex and his three time DUI new wife sabotaged it.

The door is always open but it's going to have to come from them.
"In 2025, 40% of women aged 15 to 44 say they would move abroad permanently if they had the opportunity. The current figure is four times higher than the 10% who shared this desire in 2014, when it was generally in line with other age and gender groups."

The Republican president is a pedophile who has doubled my healthcare costs and let scores of violent criminals out of jail. But a Democratic mayor-elect wants to make busses free in a city I don't live in. I have never felt more politically homeless.

We are at a point where the vice-President can claim that one of the most widely used and tested medications is "useless" because disregard for science is seen as a virtue.
