Well now you've done it. A meme is born.

Boromir from THE LORD OF THE RINGS, holding The One Ring. He thought he could use it for good, but everything done with the ring turns to evil. He was one of the mightiest warriors of middle earth, and he could not resist its powers. Others even mightier fell to the ring. Do you think you are stronger than them? The One Ring is generative AI.

Techbros seem to love Tolkien, so here's an analogy to help you understand what genAI is.

GenAI is The One Ring. You think your use is justified, b/c you don't have evil in your heart.

But it came from evil, it is intended for evil purpose, & anything you do with it will be twisted to that end.

t-online: Neues Gesetz von Reiche Baustopp für Wind und Solar – bis zu zehn Jahre lang

Sozialstaat schleifen, AfD füttern, Energiewende abwürgen. Die CDU lässt nichts aus. Was diese Partei dem Land gerade antut, zerstört Gegenwart und Zukunft in einem Aufwasch. Wer so regiert, hat mit diesem Land nichts mehr vor. Dem ist alles egal, außer der eigenen Klientel.

Screenshot of a post from James Talarico claiming Trump didn’t want an interview aired, alongside a still image of Talarico sitting across from Stephen Colbert on a late-night talk show set.

Make sure everyone sees this then. The FCC apparently changed its “equal time” rule on talk shows to make it hard for Colbert or The View to air interviews with candidates like Talarico. Video link in comments.

Stephen Colbert Rips CBS For Banning Interview With Texas Democrat Due To FCC Threat

Bravo, Stephen!

Once again, the FCC is coming after Colbert. This time they're refusing to allow CBS to air an interview of James Talarico, a Dem Senate candidate from Texas. So we all know what to do, right?

If your menu at the restaurant is just a QR code, you can shove your food somewhere else.

So Nintendo just killed the online mode by removing the ability to choose from round tracks. Do I see that right?

Trump will try to provoke violence. Keep protests peaceful. Look out for instigators.

👏👏👏

2C by 2029.

0.5C HIGHER than the ‘safe limit’ agreed by 195 countries in Paris less than 10 years ago.

Yet I’ve not heard a single journalist ask a leader or politician about this.

We’re being boiled to death by a media & politics in the pocket of the fossil fuel industry.

'We're citizens!': Oklahoma City family traumatized after ICE raids home, but they weren't suspects A woman says her family’s fresh start in Oklahoma turned into a nightmare after federal immigration agents raided their home, taking their phones, laptops, and life savings – even though they were …

Please highlight this story.

ICE stormed into the wrong house, trashed the place, and made women/girls stand outside in the rain in their underwear. ICE also stole phones, laptops, and cash savings from the family, who moved to OKC two weeks ago.

Title reads: "It Didn't Start with Gas Chambers." Text below reads: "It started with one party controlling the media. One party controlling the message. One party deciding what is truth. One party censoring speech and controlling the opposition. One party dividing citizens into "us" vs "them" and calling on their supporters to harrass "them". Below it states: "It started when good people turned a blind eye and let it happen." Beneath the text is a picture of Nazi Germany.

Never forget.

This is despicable. ICE is out of control.

Trumps faschistischer Durchmarsch & unsere Medien verharmlosen es Illegale Deportationen, Missachtung der Gerichte, Versuche der Gleichschaltung: Trump versucht den faschistischen Durchmarsch. In den deutschen Medien wird das "umstritten" genannt, "Bürokratieabbau" ...

Die Trump Regierung inszeniert sich zum Kämpfer gegen Antisemitismus - beruft aber Antisemiten in hohe Ämter, verbreitet antisemitische Verschwörungsmythen und nutzt für ihre Deportationen ein Gesetz aus der Feder eines Antisemiten, das die Einwanderung von Juden in die USA massiv beschränkte.

NEW: Elon Musk’s X has suspended accounts of Turkish opposition groups, suppressing footage of anti-government protests.

So, best we share all the footage we can here!

This was last night’s massive demo against Erdogan’s government, which follows the arrest of his rival Ekrem İmamoğlu.

The Disappeared: Trump’s Mass Deportation Machine and the Shadow Prison in El Salvador In 2025, 238 Venezuelan men vanished—secretly deported to El Salvador’s CECOT prison. This is the story of forced disappearance in America’s name.

"A judge had ruled the deportations unconstitutional and ordered the flights turned around. The planes were in the air. The White House ignored the ruling. They kept going.

It was the day the United States crossed a line no constitutional democracy should ever cross."

Social media post by Isis Wise (@Libs4Canada ) and Canadian and American flag icons, reading: 'A Dutch pension fund sold its entire stake in Tesla, reportedly worth $585 million.' The post includes a photo of a Tesla dealership building with the Tesla logo and two Tesla electric vehicles parked in front, under a cloudy sky.

This is the way. Write your pension fund, school, city comptroller and demand divestment from Tesla.
