So what is pass interference. If Dallas corners touch a Tampa receiver it seems to be a penalty. Allowed them to do a 15 play drive. But Tampa tackles Pickens before the ball gets there and no call. Hell, the camera caught the Tampa corner laughing as he knew he got away with one. Utter Bullshit

Hakeem Jeffries last post on bluesky is a month ago. Schumer last post was about October 7th. Those are the two leaders doing nothing. Both are representatives from New York. Like fuking do some messaging

This afternoon in Marble Hill, a New Yorker was shot by an ICE agent in a residential neighborhood. Early reports indicate agents surrounded him and a 5-year-old child in his car before firing multiple rounds. We believe the child was physically unharmed.

This is an unconscionable and incredibly serious situation. I have called the President; when we speak I will demand that he ends all ICE enforcement actions in our city. I will not stand by while ICE agents terrorize our communities.

Our thoughts are with the injured New Yorker and his family tonight. We are praying for his recovery.

Get ICE out of our neighborhoods. Get ICE out of our hospitals. Get ICE off our streets. Get ICE away from our children.

Abolish ICE.

So let me get this straight. During Tampa offensive drive if our corners put their hands on a reciever it was pass interference, but when Tampa tackles Pickens before the ball gets there, there's no pass interference. That's wild. Look I'm just looking for consistency

Nor white-*supremacist* enough, as I recall. Which is somewhat horrific to consider on its face. The idea that I should be forced to need a passport to visit assorted friends and relatives, living or dead because of this Musk creep...no. Just NO.

the reason “AI will create so much abundance we will have a utopian society” rhetoric falls so flat is that the people building it will never, ever share their bounty unless it is taken from them and we all know it

Heather McPherson: "Canada approved the Cleveland-Cliffs acquisition of Stelco in 2024 under the Investment Canada Act, and the approval came with commitments around maintaining unionized employment. Why weren't the Investment Canada Act commitments enforced earlier?"

Basically AI allows software engineers to produce shitty code *faster* and in higher volumes which increases the amount time spent on code reviews and revisions nullifying the productivity gained from producing the code in the first place.

They are becoming more and more explicit that creating dossiers on you and graphing your relationships is the whole point. “Agents” indeed. www.cnbc.com/2026/10/07/m...
Former Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer is taking a try-before-you-buy approach with her new photo-centric AI agent startup Dazzle, a tactic she said is important “for those occasional users or those users who are just trying to see what the service can do at the very beginning.”

Dazzle analyzes users’ personal photos to understand aspects of their lives, such as their family members or interests, and then can take actions like reminding someone that a pair of shoes they recently looked up is on sale online.

It’s a strategy she learned from her early tenure at Google
, before the company built its market-leading online ad platform.

I agree it's impossible to avoid using anything that had AI in its construction, but disagree that minimizing individual use is the only thing we can do. We need to demand consequences for execs responsible for the negligent homicides and law-breaking, and tight regulations to mitigate harms.

A lot of people have said this, but if any of the problems are real it shouldn't matter that some people fighting against real problems don't have their facts perfectly straight. Rather than wait for perfect messengers, join the fight to improve people's lives by reigning this stuff in.

I'm increasingly frustrated that people who are anti-AI aren't being taken seriously, and taking a page out of my thoughts on why the anti-trans backlash got as far as it did I'm starting to think the anti-AI side isn't extreme enough.

Digging past environmental and economic concerns, I just don't like it. Nothing made by or with AI is impressive to me, and I miss being impressed. It's a joy sucker, to me, and I don't appreciate it being everywhere and in everything. At least with crypto, it didn't come up a lot in my day-to-day.

By no means perfect. As a Canadian I have watched many a former coworker go from good dude to outright racist in their posting on Facebook. The overall ecosystem of media promotes conservativism. It allows for Austerity and more people's lives to become worse while placing the blame on immigration

a little louder for the cheap seats in the back
One of the biggest myths is that men rape by mistake. Like, "Oh, they need consent training." But research is very clear: Sexual violence is not a mistake. It is an intentionally made decision by people who know they don't have consent. They just don't prioritize consent over things like status, power, domination, and sexual gratification.
For my research, I got a certificate of confidentiality from the National Institutes of Health, so my notes couldn't be subpoenaed. One of the reasons I call them perpetrators in my work is because every single person I interviewed confessed in that context. The first question I would ask them was, "When you received that email from Title IX that you were under investigation, did you know what it was about?" Every perpetrator I interviewed said "yes." If sexual assault were a miscommunication, you would be wondering, What have I possibly done wrong? That is not the way that any of them reacted because they knew.

I imagine its a bit of both. The other thing is various social media apps seem to be cooking people's brains. I only really saw it on Twitter as I'm not on Tiktok and rarely use Facebook. But Facebook is a cesspool when I end up there. Local town election subreddit has become very racist- sad really
