I can't even remember entering, but apparently I won a pair of Low Cut Connie tix, so that's a nice b-day week surprise.

I changed my haircut and facial hair so much today, that my dogs barked at me and the Face ID on my phone stopped working. 😂

East Allegheny. 900 Spring Garden Ave - PBF Station 32. A firefighter said that he was scratched by a raccoon and it should probably be looked at by medics. PD are being sent along with animal control to handle the animal.

The government *still* isn’t tracking how often immigration agents detain U.S. citizens. We are. 500+ Americans have been handcuffed, held at gunpoint or held against their will in Trump’s second term. Our tally is almost certainly an undercount. THREAD (content warning: violence) ⬇️

"But the handicapped need cars!" No, what they need are options in mobility. The tech exists to enable their freedom of independent mobility, but almost always what is lacking is the enabling infrastructure. Bike lanes and quality sidewalks serve everyone.

This is your occasional reminder that generative "AI" in particular could have been developed on public domain materials and/or licensed and compensated works but the major players intentionally, methodically and systemically chose to steal labor from working creative folks instead

I just heard @npr.org say "no one knows how to fairly divvy up the bill" regarding the increase in utility costs due to data centers. Easy. Data centers pay. The infrastructure, increase, their own bills. If I walk into a store and fuck up everything in there, I have to pay for it. Why don't they?

Nobody wants to hear this so feel free to scroll on by. The whole “it’s all good/don’t ever complain/just be thankful” attitudes are helping to allow bad behaviors to persist in the scene. No standards. No expectations. No backbone to speak up. #phish #bmfs #gizz #stoneytakes

If you want to really know how the outrage machine gets fired up: 1. Schmitt plans to drop “bombshell” on Smith 2. Someone plants story that Schmitt is a Vance VP contender to run same day 3. Right-wing Twittersphere gets talking points 4. Schmitt steps in it 5. Scheduled tweets go out anyway

The theory that they’ll use a similar incident as an excuse to disqualify election results doesn’t seem all that far-fetched at this point.

Just helping with editing here. These bots aren’t sentient. They’re doing what they’re programmed to do. OpenAI, a private company supposedly bound by laws, committed federal crimes.

What does a sniper position at Memorial Circle actually defend against? Not China. Not a submarine. Not a missile. It overlooks a bridge, a traffic circle, and the front door of the National Mall. Those are places where Americans march. www.jackhopkinsnow.com

The most corrupt, unethical AG in the US history will now take office after a sham deal with retiring Republican senators. Now this lawless DOJ will run amok with Trump’s criminal defense attorney carrying out his retribution tour against the innocent while the guilty go free.
