It is embarrassing that Bill Kristol has about 100x better political positioning than congressional Dem leaders

Tbh every time I read this I think that this is not the janitors fault but the fault of Infosec and the fault of the team managing the data center in general.
The odds that MrBeast has done a bunch of rape like stuff and/or raped someone feels wildly high.
ok the Mr. Beast lawsuit, let’s go.
step 1: don’t do this, or this, or this, or this
The irony of an increasingly fascist country like the US telling other countries they need to be free —- like fuck off
Tbf there are lots of issues with Tolentino but she didn’t run her parent’s business so that’s a low blow.
The reality though is that it’s likely leadership is wildly uninformed about how AI works and just put this into play without adequately evaluating it, preparing for situations involving hallucinations etc etc ….
Hopefully this is a wake up call to other firms.
People really underestimate the fact that republicans are operating as though laws don’t matter by default and that until democrats respond by fighting fire with fire, we are 100% going to lose.
Being married to an actual lawyer it completely blows my mind that the review of such a high profile case doc was basically “guess we’ll just assume this case law referenced was accurate” instead of doing any real review…. WILD
Meta point that it doesn’t help that every single person leading the discussion on almost everything these days online is rich which makes everything feel like Caesar Flickerman describing the hunger games while not actually being in the games.
The funny thing about AI is it flattens everything so that if you aren’t able to articulate your needs, you’re useless… and who can’t articulate their needs… people who lack the skills to use language as if they were wielding a scalpel.
If we can’t remove billionaires by policy the only natural response of the populace is to remove them by bullets.
It’s not a suggestion of how to fix the problem but an obvious immune response by a populace being terrorized by billionaires who have legalized social murder.
Every year it feels like we have the worst congress ever but then the next year proves it can actually get even worse.
At some point the next administration is just going to have a burning pile of ashes to somehow turn into a semblance of a functioning democracy.
Lmfao eat shit sir
Given they are still hammering out the details on this tax proposal (as pointed out), there’s no reason we can’t work around the insanity for the time being while a long term plan is formulated.
I’m not saying I disagree —- but fixing the property tax system would require some crazy buy in to make happen… and I don’t doubt that Mamdani can do it, but understanding the second and third order consequences and planning for all that will legitimately take some time given no mayor has ever tried
Did anyone tell him his suit looks like it’s padded 4 inches in every direction.
The number of Republicans crashing out about getting nakedly gerrymandered is, unironically, a sign that we need to do more of it. You guys are correct! This shit sucks! Welcome to the party, pals! We can all stop doing it any time you like!
All Republicans are fine with this.
The Onion wants to make us submissive slaves to the New world order.
Correct.
Trump is within sight of an under 30% overall approval rating.
One of the most important causes right now is to establish a media narrative and popular support behind severe punishments and consequences to our present criminals running things.
sarah isgur and brett kavanaugh mugging for the camera together
Brett Kavanaugh officiated Sarah Isgur's wedding and is helping her promote her book, which is all about how good and noble the Supreme Court is. There is no reason to take seriously anything this person says about her very powerful, life-tenured friends. Seriously, have some respect for yourself.
Alan Dershowitz - I just can’t handle when people who set war crimes keep doing war crimes and they’re actually held accountable.
It’s 2026 and the only way to register an LLP is by mail, fax, or in person. Nothing online.
One of the reasons Jeffries is so unserious is 90% of what he does is go “look, these guys are worse” without any actual real plan for how to make things in any way better. He’s not a leader - he’s just another counterweight against a functioning democracy.
Hoping they both just kill each other
Everyone in the world - maybe fewer sequels and money grabs
Universal pictures —- yeah but no
The whole web is built on a primary grace: that the people visiting you are trustworthy. It costs a little something for me to serve my webpage to everyone who goes there. When the number of scrapers outnumbers the number of humans by an order of magnitude, this grace is fragile.
