if a man leaves his job, his friends, and his new romance to shack up with someone he met in his youth and drive a motorcycle, that would be called a midlife crisis - I might actually be interested in Doomsday if that’s how they played it with Captain America

If this is all Harrell has—accusing a group whose staff is almost entire Black, brown, and Asian of darkening his skin on a debate watch party invite because they're racist—he's doomed. Sauce so weak it's dribbling off the plate.

NEW: In an investigation for @realchangenews.bsky.social, I found that Seattle’s UCT storage program rarely returns belongings collected at sweeps to homeless people. Only 1 in 15 instances, or 7% of the time, led to property going back to its original owners. Most was disposed of after 70 days.

We didn't stop them, but we slowed them down. They got hundreds of us, but we kept them from getting hundreds more, and it wasn't violence or graffiti or insults that did the job, it was regular people getting involved. It was my neighbor the speech therapist, it was my friend the life-coach. 8/

Just a reminder to check for your name in this list of books that OpenAI trained from. If your name is there, they probably owe you several thousand dollars. OpenAI cried that if everyone eligible author files, the company will go bankrupt, so I'm alerting every author I have ever spoken to.

Your last saved pic is your moral philosophy.
Sparkly text reads, “starting tomorrow everything is going to be okay! they JUST announced it.” In the background is a hazy picture of Britney Spears and white horses over a mountain.

Google's AI - I refuse to learn what it's supposed to be called - is the most annoying thing. Why am I seeing this random photo when I'm just looking at slide templates???

one of the top three things about having a baby is plugging into the buy nothing groups. packing up our crib to send it off to its third kiddo and getting new-to-us summer clothes to refresh our warbrode.

Reading heavy and depressing books as a kid helped me learn that terrible things were a part of life, not a divine punishment or something that I caused and could/should prevent if I was good enough/worked hard enough.
A screenshot of a tweet that reads, “I’m strongly against people writing devastatingly depressing books that then get loads of critical acclaim and endorsement for their ‘great writing’

“if you can produce ‘great writing’ maybe don’t install harmful mind viruses into everyone who picks up your book

I really firmly believe that every politician will disappoint you eventually and that none of them should be put up on any sort of pedestal that doesn't have bazookas pointed at it, but the dems are fucking fools for not embracing this dude, for not using his campaign as a blueprint for the future

I can’t explain it but I also don’t feel the need to defend it. I can guarantee it would be a unique experience. Enough (2002) and Magic Mike XXL (2015)

now why would the website that we use to make graphics for linkedin do all this
A acreenshot of a newsletter from Canva. It reads, “Can you make them dance?
It's easy with Google's Veo 3, only in Canva Pro. Upgrade today to get these quokkas grooving to any genre using just a few prompts. It's AI-powered video creation, made for speed, style, and scale.” There’s a button that reads, “Create a video clip.” And an image of quokkas in space wearing tacky outfits, ready to dance.

People think that because these companies make $$$$$, they must be right. But like, how many orgs modeled after big tech’s hiring practices just for the research to prove how silly/inefficient/biased it was?
