If you want to see how quickly everyone goes into manufacturing consent mode, compare the full-court press tonight to the response to any of the people ICE has shot in the last few months, some of whom died.

I'm ICE, boys. I love crashing cars, getting divorced, crashing cars, bargain bin jeans, texting while driving, crashing cars, OLD GLORY, and let's not forget my one true passion in life—crashing cars

Now, I was never a big time journalist, but when your work is just the fruit of powerful people telling you shit because they know you will sell it to their liking, whether it's politics or sports or entertainment, that's not journalism. You're doing a whole other job buddy.

it seems lame that obituaries and eulogies and shit only happen after a person is dead. you should get a funeral once in life where your loved ones have to say all that stuff to your face

big development guys. my husband’s friend dave has made ME responsible for the apple pie tomorrow. this is a real act of trust the likes of which you usually only see between two good friends. a significant victory in my ongoing friendship campaign
major news yall we’re going to my husband’s friend dave’s house for thanksgiving. good luck defending yourself against my friendship when you’re full of turkey and stuffing buddy
we’re breaking fast at my husband’s friend dave’s house later…the perfect opportunity to inflict a little friendship on him while he’s too weakened by fasting to defend himself. what strategy do you guys think i should use: Imposing an Inside Joke, or Vastly Overdoing It On Bringing Dessert

Awful. Trump admin is deporting a 23-year-old NC woman who came here at the age of 14 as an unaccompanied minor. Her father was murdered and mother died of cancer. All she has are two traffic citations, per this report from Charlotte Observer's Dan Kane:

he’s the creator of Flask. he’s literally the creator of Django. you dipshits he invented Zoop. better watch how you talk to the actual inventor of Peebo
Wow 80% bad-faith responses, and people lecturing the creator of Flask here and the creator of Django/datasette in the comments on why AI is useless for software engineering...
Is this platform still massively against AI or has it moved more towards acceptance?
