Frank Herbert I apologize for ever doubting you

I really wish I didnt get dumped at all but if I were to get dumped it would’ve been nice to have not been dumped a month before Im set to graduate. hard to focus on anything rn other than how weird, sad, and angry I feel.

I am responsible for the 2024 electoral outcome. And you'd better start pandering to me if you want 2028 to go your way.

BREAKING: The ProPublica union is on strike today.

The unionized staff at the non-profit outlet has walked out after two years of stalled negotiations.

The workers core demands are AI protections, just cause employment provisions, layoff safeguards, and pay increases.

CBS headline reads: "Supreme Court to weigh Trump's bid to end birthright citizenship in test of second-term agenda."

This movement has never been about violent criminal aliens, undocumented immigrants writ large, or even immigration in general, but about the country’s changing ethnic and religious makeup. It has always been about white Christian nationalism.

I guess I just don't think we were all meant to have access to little machines that let us broadcast all of our thoughts out to the wider world via text or front-facing video. I should have access to that, though. I can be trusted.

Funny that you heard a bunch of conspiracy theories about 5G being dangerous but it rolled out with seemingly no dangers whereas those same cranks have nothing to say about AI

As James Baldwin said, we are being led by people who do not believe in death, and so they cannot face the limited reality of their own lives nor can they imagine the preciousness of the ordinary lives of others.

I do not believe in any tech product where the devs want us to view it with some form of religious awe, a divine gift redefining human experience and bequeathing knowledge unto us humble land apes. I believe in a tech product where the devs are like “this is handy for planning breakfasts”

Just tried this with deepseek and it gave me the right answer but not before walking through an 8 step

Reddit post from a terminated federal employee: "The thing that I can’t get over is that the actual richest man in the world directed my fucking firing. I make $50k a year and work to keep drinking water safe. The richest man in the world decided that was an expense too great for the American taxpayer."

the richest man in the world decided that you don't deserve safe drinking water

It's striking the extent to which there's never any justification given for any of this beyond "it's too many people" or "it's actually fake" and no apparent planning behind any of it. It's the aesthetics of "move fast and break things" without any discernible direction or purpose. It's cosplay.

Everyone’s criticizing RFK Jr before he even spends one day on the job. But keep in mind he’s going to kill more Trump voters than anybody else possibly could

Elisabeth Potter, an Austin, Texas, plastic surgeon, claimed on Instagram Jan. 7 that UnitedHealth denied an in-patient stay after surgery related to cancer. “I had to scrub out mid-surgery to call United, only to find that the person on the line didn’t even have access to the patient’s full medical information, despite the procedure already being pre-approved,” Potter said in the post. One of Potter’s attorneys, Jessica Underwood, said Potter received a Jan. 13 letter from Clare Locke demanding that she correct her posts, apologize to UnitedHealth and condemn threats of violence that the law firm said resulted from the posts. But Underwood, of the law firm Nix Patterson, said Potter’s statements about the insurer were truthful. “Dr. Potter will not be silenced by UnitedHealthcare’s attempts to threaten and harass her,” Underwood said.

UnitedHealth has hired a defamation law firm to counter negative social media posts about the company.

Their first target appears to a plastic surgeon who said that UnitedHealth denied one of her patient an in-patient stay after surgery.
