That's *exactly* what Miller was about to say.

As our pressure to stop the SAVE America Act in Congress is working, some states are racing to enact their own versions of the bill to disenfranchise countless voters ahead of the midterm elections.

Not on our watch.

After intense lobbying, Trump signed executive orders to fast-track data center construction and weaken state-level AI regulations.

AI firms are also pumping huge sums into our elections.

Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction. www.motherjones.com/politics/2026/04/number-...

Oh look, another reason to hate AI.

This is slavery.

Offshore Accounts For Me, TurboTax For Thee While shutting down free direct filing for everyday taxpayers, the IRS is letting the ultrawealthy hide billions of dollars in foreign accounts.

🚨YOU CAN'T MAKE THIS UP: IRS data show 164 taxpayers with an average unreported foreign account balance of $1.3 billion were identified for examination - but only 12 were audited.

The agency didn't do more audits even after they discovered $39 million of taxes owed among the 12.

the fact that legislators are trying to say that computers are devices that require id verification and tracking to use should put fear into EVERYONE. FIGHT AGAINST THIS.

I saw someone going "but we're a rich country because people have TVs!"

Yes, I bought a TV on sale for £200, 10 years ago. (*I* think it's a nice one, but it does struggle to keep up with modern things.)

I have to buy food every week.

Why a storm nearing landfall in the Western Pacific may be a sign of what’s to come It is unusually early for a super typhoon in the western North Pacific.

A typhoon spun up from a Category 1 to a Category 5 in less than 30 hours, in April.

This is a big deal.

The most bad-ass rebuttal from Tite Kubo, the author of Bleach.

Trump loves touting "no tax on tips," but ignores that his Department of Labor proposed a rule that would make it easier for corporations to misclassify workers.

Millions of gig workers are wrongly labeled "independent contractors," and cut out of benefits and protections designated for employees.

Exactly this. Its not just about banning and segregating trans people.
Its the stochastic terrorism intended to force trans people out of society, and to impose Gilead style binary cis gender roles and presentation. They will say "dignity and respect" but that is not legal protections.

I didn’t create over 200 paintings in the last 15 years just to see 1/3 of them scraped for training data & my name abused as a prompt thousands of times. These companies are blatantly laundering copyrighted artwork, displacing the artists they stole from, & devaluing the arts as a whole.

FUCK AI.

If this happened in Canada then Regina and all of our downtown parking lots could power all of Saskatchewan.

whomst is watching me

Here’s my fan art from The Flight of Dragons, one of my favorite animated/fantasy movies. It’s a Rankin/Bass Production, w/ a great story, wonderful character/creature designs, & a fantastic cast of voice actors (James Earl Jones, Harry Morgan, John Ritter, & Alexandra Stoddart to name a few).

Weird to me that this is the thing everyone cites, because there's so much that's so much worse. In 1974 the first laws against marital rape were passed, but all 50 states did not classify it as a crime/remove the exemption until 1993.

If leaders abuse the rule of law to make themselves immune to it, so that they can undermine the rights of others with impunity, by what moral or philosophical argument are they entitled to its protections, once they lose power? By what grace should they be sorted by law instead of by other means?

This flew under the radar: Trump's new acting AG Todd Blanche shut down major DOJ investigations into crypto companies, dealers, and exchanges as Pam Bondi's second-in-command — all while holding at least $159,000 in crypto assets himself.

The fox is guarding the hen house.

When you hear
that the EPA is “proposing
gutting rules
for handling toxic coal ash,
a move
that threatens groundwater,”
it is important to understand,
it is very important to understand,
that “threatens groundwater”
is just another way of saying
“threatens you.”

‘Demonstrably Cruel’: Trump's Top Economic Adviser Brags About Killing 300,000 'High-Paying' Americans' Jobs ​"Everybody is hurt by what he's celebrating," said one public employee union official. "I guess it's just par for the course from this administration, but it's still a disgusting thing to hear."

The Pentagon Threatened Pope Leo XIV’s Ambassador With the Avignon Papacy The Free Press has documented a closed-door Pentagon meeting in which a senior Trump official lectured Pope Leo XIV’s ambassador on American military supremacy.

UPDATE: Letters from Leo can now independently confirm that the meeting took place — and that the Vatican was so alarmed by the Pentagon’s tactics that Leo shelved plans to visit America.

Some officials saw their reference to an Avignon papacy as a threat to use military force against the Holy See.

Analysis Finds That Google's AI Overviews Are Providing Misinformation at a Scale Possibly Unprecedented in the History of Human Civilization A new analysis commissioned by The New York Times suggests that Google's AI Overviews are wrong an astonishing percentage of the time.

This is catastrophic.

As the father of a middle schooler I have seen the rebellion against AI forming there — even using “that’s AI, bro,” not indicating something is literally AI, but that something is metaphorically so — it’s sus, it’s bullshit, it’s bad weird
