This I think is a huge part of the "AI" blowback too. These awful dudes are threatening to blow up society and everyone is vividly aware that society *can indeed be blown up* so people are real touchy about it in ways that probably would have been a lot more muted in normal times.

Saying "no man, you don't get to win this time" to evil people who have the power of the entire corrupt government behind them has to feel pretty fucking good
looking good sir
Newly released records on the police response to the assassination of Melissa Hortman show officers knew a woman was lying motionless on the top of the stairs inside the Hortman home but waited 30 minutes to physically check on her.
If @theonion.com can successfully buy InfoWars and progressives can keep, against all the odds, winning elections both here and in the US then maybe I'm allowed to sleep a little more jauntily tonight. Well done, good people.
Netanyahu is a war criminal wanted for starving millions of Palestinians.
Since warrants for his arrest were issued, he’s visited the US seven times, and been welcomed into the White House and halls of Congress.
US law requires arresting those suspected of committing genocide.
I’ve been completely over it with superhero movies for years and now you’re telling me to understand an upcoming film I’ll be required to do homework? LMAO please go away.
Some timeline stuff:
— We expect to get InfoWars.com after the judge clears it in a couple of weeks.
— We'll build a world of characters on the site and across social media. Tim Heidecker is in charge, and we have grand designs.
— Visit theonion.info, buy a subscription, help us dominate the world.
in the early days of the net websites used to have messages like "welcome to my amazing webzone, i hope you enjoy the things i've collected that represent my strange mind." now they're just like "by clicking this box you agree to recieve targeted advertisements in your dreams"
Sorry to be overly sincere for a second, but here's why we decided to persevere through all of the bullshit and take over InfoWars.
There's just gotta be a line somewhere.
Thank you @pablo.show for letting me talk so openly about this.
I study racist politicians from the Jim Crow era and this is on par with anything that John Rankin, Theodore Bilbo, or Cotton Ed Smith ever said in public
This piece begins with Amity Shlaes' most common and most deceitful trick -- citing the unemployment numbers in 1938, when the country fell into a recession because FDR had been persuaded to *ease off* the New Deal, as proof that the New Deal didn't work.
Pure hackery.
A new poll just came out showing that 74% of Gen Z sympathizes more with Palestinians than with Israelis. SEVENTY FOUR PERCENT. They had mainstream media, government backing, billion dollar lobbying. And still lost this generation. WHO DO YOU SYMPATHIZE MORE WITH? TOECISION DESKE POLL I somtacos- 6 SurveyMonkey ISRAELIS 50% PALESTINIANS 50% 81% 19% 25% 75% GEN 2 26% 74%
For over two years, Gen Z has witnessed a livestreamed genocide on their phones while many of our own elected officials tried to say it wasn’t happening.
Starving millions of people while bombing hospitals and schools can’t be justified.
Young people didn’t fall for any of it.
"Describe the characters without referring to their job or clothes" has stuck with me since I saw it
A picture of a rather dilapidated copy of "The picture of Dorian Gray" There is visible water damage to the cover and the plastic cover is yellowing. Obviously, not evident from the picture but there is a truly foul musty smell emanating from it!
Last week, a gentleman returned this rather dilapidated copy of this famous book to us after 50 years. He had found it in his attic!
Presumably this means there is a pristine copy somewhere in our libraries....
My cousin Shawn took weed to impress a girl when we were teenagers and his asshole & penis switched places. All the doctors at the (real) Pitt threw up when they saw it. Be my guest and Get “high” if you want this to happen to you
VERY COOL PERSON: It's four-twenty, you know what that means?
ME: Hell yeah! [starts shoving blackbirds into a pie]
Absolutely incredible.
NASA Astronaut Reid Wiseman, who commanded Artemis II, took this footage from the far side of the Moon with his iPhone.
Watch with sound on.
Everybody picking the same song about being unique and special is kind of great
In the same manifesto, Palantir's owners argued that we need a national military draft, that soft power is over, and that we were too hard on Germany and Japan after World War II. I don't think that company should be allowed to exist anymore.
Gonna spend the next two years spamming every elected Dem about the concept of "damnatio memoriae." Chisel his name off every inscription. Build over the various Trump Towers like they're Nero's Golden House. Remove him from physical memory, not to forget but as a sign of disrespect to the man.
And all of this nonsense has to be thrown up by booker because otherwise the Democratic Party and its consultants would have to recalibrate. Instead, he’s just gonna do the thing that democrats have been doing for a decade which is hoping and praying that their base is all Reagan republicans.
Actually, I’ve explained this MANY TIMES
This generation of Black ppl vote MORE than any generation since we got the right to vote
But after the 1st Black was elected, WHITE PPL began turning out in historic numbers to vote for Trump. As this graph CLEARLY shows…
The “crisis” is white people.
See, here's the flaw in Democrat's logic. Appreciate the vigor, but like, Cory JUST said these hypothetical people "agree with 90/100 things Harris said." Let's ignore that one of them was genocide, just for the sake of argument: HE just blamed VOTERS you want support from for "letting" Trump in.
wow. this rant is unhinged, and it highlights the most fundamental problem with the two party system we are all stuck under.
the expectation that voters have to earn the respect of the politicians they vote for is a complete inversion of the concept of a democracy.
the breathless reporting that nonliving machine parts have more stamina than biological creatures that evolved.
also no it didn't run a half marathon, that requires intention, it moved its legs quickly in a programmed path
18 months.
14 newsrooms.
70 journalists.
1 groundbreaking investigation into a global surveillance empire whose phone-tracking software has targeted world leaders, corporate executives, journalists, activists, celebrities…and maybe even you.
OPINION: "In an era when image authenticity is often questioned and with the capabilities of autonomous, AI-driven imaging, NASA’s choice to train astronauts in photography has placed meaning over convenience and prioritized their human perspectives and creativity," Sisson writes.
