So weird to be watching a @natogreen.bsky.social comedy special on Youtube only to be interrupted by an AI-narrated Manny Yekutil ad. I often lose patience with the people who complain about San Francisco losing its soul but the contrast is undeniable. www.youtube.com/watch?v=_er-...

Affordable housing measure would deprive cops of funding, Lurie says
Prop. I would direct transfer tax revenue to affordable housing. Police and fire unions — and the mayor — say doing so would threaten public safety funding.

A quick word on Taco Bell: That's where we found the suspected lettuce, and it's not bc Taco Bell is gross. It's bc Taco Bell is REALLY GOOD at tracing product! Keeping track of exactly where they got their ingredients, & exactly what restaurants each shipment of ingredients went to!

One of the lessons of the Iran war is that it was a huge mistake not to even try to put any of the Iraq war architects in prison. We shouldn’t make it again.

This is incredibly offensive. To see the California Governor's office -- and a former san francisco politician! -- promote Reagan as an example of goodness + humanity is outrageous when it's widely recognized that his anti-gay and AIDS-phobic bigotry contributed to killing how many Californians?!

The US Holocaust Museum being more outraged by Tim Walz saying that, like Anne Frank, children today are in hiding from armed agents of the state, than they are about the fact that children are in hiding from armed agents of the state, is why Holocaust remembrance culture is in crisis.
Tweet from the US Holocaust Memorial Museum: "Anne Frank was targeted and murdered solely because she was Jewish. Leaders making false equivalencies to her experience for political purposes is never acceptable. Despite tensions in Minneapolis, exploiting the Holocaust is deeply offensive, especially as antisemitism surges."

Senate Democrats absolutely have to shut the govt down to stop this ICE insanity in the Twin Cities. This is not sustainable & cannot be normalized. Any Democratic vote to provide money to the thugs who are brutalizing this community is a grave betrayal to the people here. Accountability can't wait.

Any time anyone suggests taxing these assholes more they always claim they're gonna run away but they never do because (relatively) high-tax places are honestly pretty great cause we use taxes to make them better. But dipshits like the New York Times always fall for it.

When this "AI" bubble pops, the men pretending they weren't pushing the hype, like "critics" whose position is "AGI is real but LLMs aren't the way," who were in eugenicist and "AI existential risk"🙄 circles, will get specials discussing what they saw coming, when its the women who told you so.

On the scale of indignities the internet inflicts on us it's pretty low but I still harbor a hatred for the retargeting nonsense where a company sends you an ad and you click on it and then they send you like three emails a day for a week asking "do you still want it? did you forget about it?" etc.
