Shout out to the approximately zero women who are surprised by these results…
Study finds A.I. LLMs advise women to ask for lower salaries than men. When prompted w/ a user profile of same education, experience & job role, differing only by gender, ChatGPT advised the female applicant to request $280K salary; Male applicant=$400K.

With all the anger and division in this country right now, we want to take time this Memorial Day weekend to remember those who fought and died for this country. Their sacrifice is worth honoring. We hold their friends and families in our hearts.

I am so over the media's framing of these kinds of issues. Who effing cares if the Trump administration wants to "make" Canada a state?

The correct framing here is: "Is the United States' position that it will no longer be adhere to international law when it comes to Canada?"
WELKER: Does the US still want to make Canada the 51st state?

MARCO RUBIO: I think the president has stated repeatedly he thinks Canada would be better off as a state

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!
