Republicans in Congress got hours of free airtime in front of the American people. They spent it stating false facts as true and calling Jack Smith a dirtbag and a villain. Here's all you need to know, under oath.

i really can’t bring myself to care about AI anthropomorphism debates. “is AI thinking?” i don’t know. is a calculator calculating? questions for the philosophers. what’s important is that we put sam altman in prison.

Love trying to apply to a university job and knowing that I attached all the correct files just for my pending application to show that it removed everything but the resume 🙃

As a new Harry Potter trailer makes the rounds, it bears repeating that there’s no way to watch this show without supporting J.K. Rowling’s bigotry and the structural violence she’s inflicting on the trans community.

There is no ethical consumption of HBO’s Harry Potter series
You can’t without supporting Rowling’s transphobic bigotry.

Here we have a pup enjoying the fruits of his labor after a hard day's work. 13/10 good for him
a fluffy dog with a tricolor coat has the front half of his body in a large hold in fenced in yard. his hind end is up in the air and his tail is slightly curled. he's hard at work digging the perfect hole.the dog is sitting in his ground hole. it's so deep that the earth comes up to his shoulders. his left leg is resting on the ground and he looks off to the left side of the image. he earned this.

This is Bonggu. His human took this "embarrassing" pic of him napping. Even shared them with us to humiliate him. Jokes on them though because he's still very handsome. 13/10 (IG: hi_bbomabbong_2)
bonggu, a black and tan dachshund, lies tucked under a black blanket with his head resting on a pillow. his eyes are closed, his tongue sticks out slightly, and his tiny front teeth peek through as he naps on his back.

The Trump administration fired two immigration judges who dismissed deportation cases against pro-Palestinian international students. The firings of Roopal Patel and Nina Froes are the latest move to reshape the country’s immigration courts.
