The NY state "young" Republicans were robots controlled by Pinky and the Brain. Brain has Pinky make an internal chat as part of the ruse. Pinky uses Grok for it, and it spits out a bunch of racist shit. Brain's plan is foiled again by Pinky's stupidity.
Look at this pic and tell me it's not true.

The people behind the inflated protests are performing a monumental service to democracy & peace in the US. The Regime wants riots, but these animal characters are not only an effective protest, grabbing attention & mocking ICE, they seem to reduce the risk of violent protests. It's perfect.
The Portland Frog army has now infiltrated Tulsa, OK and they’ve made an unlikely alliance with the T-Rex infantry and Sharks on Hoverboards mercenary forces.
This is truly terrifying.

“We are home now. We marched from the park to ICE, very peaceful crowd. We were standing around ICE pushed us down, sprayed us with chemical and I was hit in the head with a projectile. This was so unprovoked. People have to know that the Feds are attacking people with NO provocation whatsoever.”

For a while, it's been apparent that conspiratorial thinking has taken over the Republican Party. But don't think for a second that Democrats have some kind of mental immunity to this. The ground on the right might have been more fertile, but I've been noticing sprouts coming up among Democrats.

cops are 1,000,000% going to use AI-generated "security footage" to coerce Black kids into confessing to things they didn't do because fighting it will seem absolutely hopeless.
Shoutout to every stupid MFer embracing & glazing AI but specifically Black people because this kind of technology is absolutely horrifying for us
OpenAI employees are very excited about how well their new AI tool can create fake videos of people doing crimes and have definitely thought through all the implications of this

Jimmy Kimmel coming back on the air is a win for mass organizing. I'm still disappointed that we can do this for a TV show, but apparently not ICE detentions, the dismantling of American science, or mass layoffs at federal departments.

They really care about Kirk more than 9/11. They think everyone cares about Kirk more than 9/11 except a few pesky leftists. They need him to be a martyr and for you to agree he's a martyr.
Attorney General Pam Bondi: "There's free speech and then there's hate speech, and there is no place, especially now, especially after what happened to Charlie, in our society...We will absolutely target you, go after you, if you are targeting anyone with hate speech."

No, making that shot at 250 yards with a benchrest is not difficult. It does not take military training to make a headshot at that distance. That was sniper distance in WW2, but not now.
Please stop the BlueAnon shit about this. Bunch of people who never fired a gun talking about guns.

Listen, I need you to fucking swear on your posts, blogs, YouTube vids, whatever. It's a signal that you're not monetarily beholden to some asshole telling you to watch your language. What else are they asking you to do while holding dollars over you?

Congress does not get two months of vacation. They have time when they don't have to be in Washington. They are supposed to use the majority of that time back in their districts having meetings with constituents, doing town halls, etc.
If your Congress Critter isn't doing that, then ask why.

You have before you a large pile of shit. Underneath this pile of shit is something useful. You are being asked to rawdog your arm into said pile of shit, find the useful thing, pull it out, and clean it off.
Anyway, how is the AI bubble going?

Do you know how much you can fuck with people during a Star Trek first contact situation? You could say "humans say hello by licking each other's teeth" and they would have to believe you.

Newsom is not a progressive, much less anyone who wants to attack the foundations of capitalism. Newsom will not save us. No one person will.
What Newsom is doing is showing that the Democrats who get noticed are the ones who are fucking trying.

How does this even make sense from a Law and Order Conservatism point of view? They have served their time. The law says let them out.

Did anyone ever stop to think that the First Amendment is there to protect the people from having their speech suppressed by the government, not the other way around?
Oklahoma (through its weird Superintendent of Public Instruction, Ryan Walters) sued the Freedom from Religion Foundation for sending letters, claiming the government was "chilled" by speech. Federal court tosses the man-bites-dog lawsuit: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

"AI won't disappear" is a weaselly thing to say. What do you mean by that? People who say the above seem to imply this bubble will go on forever, but that's not how it works. Having 0.01% of the population running models at home or in a research lab is not a basis for a massive capitalist bubble.
