Keep in mind that pretty much any smart TV that can accept voice commands IS listening to and transcribing what you say, all the time. You can dig into the permissions and ask it politely not to send everything you say to Google, but there's no way to be sure it isn't.

Macklemore can sue Robert Kraft for Tortious Interference for economic harm and I hope he does. Discovery would be fun: "Which other stadium owners did you talk to?" and "We need all related emails, text messages and contracts between you and them and you and Sheeran and Sheeran's team."

It's Technocracy, Elon's grandfather's obsession. Trump st talking about conquering Canada, Greenland and Panama immediately after spending a few weeks with Elon in late 2024.

This is pretty shocking. I had a minor stroke two years ago in Ontario, got an MRI immediately, saw a stroke specialist within 3 months, and got a cardiac procedure to close a hole in my heart (suspected cause of the stroke) within a year.

This nation was founded on a union, and on this Labor Day, we’re reminded that the American worker, not Washington, has led to our prosperity. As one of the few pro-union GOP congressmen at the time, I’d rather celebrate the workers than the paperwork signers who gave us off today. (Link below)

So, if I understand Nigel Farage's argument correctly it is: "Everyone I trusted and elevated into a position of responsibility is constantly doing crimes that benefit me but of which I somehow have no knowledge. I am a man with the character, judgement, and intelligence to run the country." Ok.

a glaring omission from much of the convo about the Delaney Hall labor and hunger strike imo is the fact that *these people shouldn't be laboring in the first place* this is slavery, & even the 13th Amendment's 'punishment for a crime' exception doesn't apply! ballsandstrikes.org/law-politics...
