Honest to Murgatroyd while writing this I got a new Chrome AI popup "Help me write" button I'd never seen before. Here's how to turn off the latest trash in settings!

For some nominative non-determinism, a nighthawk roused for a mid-day snack.
Nighthawk in flight in front of clouds, with fine stripes across the body, and upward pointing wings A flying nighthawk with horizontal wings, making its back and stubby head visible to the camera.

Earlier Sunday, Bukele responded to a social media post about the judge in Washington, D.C., halting the use of the act on Saturday and wrote: “Oopsie, too late,” followed by a laughing emoji. Rubio reposted it, and a White House spokesman responded with a meme saying, “Boom!”

straight up, loud and proud, nazi support from the Vice President of the United States addressing the governments of Europe
“There’s no room for firewalls” in elections, Vice President JD Vance says in Munich. There it is. That’s a specific reference to allowing the hard-right AfD into Germany’s government.

all part of the shakedown

The White House’s Office of Personnel Management sent an email blast Tuesday to civilian government employees offering them an easy way to quit with pay through Sept. 30, the most sweeping effort yet by the new Trump administration to shrink the ranks of the federal workforce.

when you bootlick so hard you make the Onion scrap their first draft of an article mocking you for bootlicking
screenshot from article: Zuckerberg said Meta’s “factcheckers have just been too politically biased and have destroyed more trust than they’ve created”. The tech firm’s content moderation teams will be moved from California to Texas “where there is less concern about the bias of our teams”, he said. He admitted that changes to the way Meta filters content would mean “we’re going to catch less bad stuff”. Meta has more than 3 billion users globally. In a wide-ranging statement, Zuckerberg said Meta would also “get rid of a bunch of restrictions on topics like immigration and gender that are just out of touch with mainstream discourse” and “work with President Trump to push back on governments around the world that are going after American companies and pushing to censor more”.
