Naming a police officer is not doxxing. We aren’t supposed to have secret police in America.

You ever think about how the Roman Senate kept meeting centuries into the reigns of emperors. Hanging out, shooting the shit, giving speeches, and play-acting that their positions of privilege remained positions of power.

It’s good to see local superintendents and media saying the thing I have been saying for years. The Missouri GOP supermajority has schemed to defund public schools and send the money to private religious schools. This will close the rural schools in my state.

In case you needed one more reason not to use AI … The CEO of ChatGPT is blaming a teen’s suicide on his failure to follow the terms of service: Adam Raine, 16, told ChatGPT he was suicidal and the AI bot told him his feelings were valid and even provided suggestions and detailed instructions.
