Welcome to America, where protesting illegal kidnappings without due process is an insurrection, but attacking the nation’s Capitol is not.

Undocumented immigrants pay almost $100 billion in taxes each year. The top 1% evade $163 billion in taxes each year. Stop pretending that immigrants are the ones taking advantage of taxpayers.

If you read the literature on the Middle Ages a bit, you will see the sentiment "peasants are naturally risk-averse" appear frequently. Should you encounter this, take it as a sign that you will Not be hearing about the Cool Peasants--at least Not Yet--and will be forced instead to Endure a Lecture.

A big fear of mine with VEO3 and the rise of AI generated media is that true atrocities will be dismissed. Not that they will use it to generate fictive events to create ire, but that dismissal will generate further apathy and we'll become inhumane husks.

MUST WATCH: ICE agents ran over a protester. Fled the scene. Hit a bystander on a bike. Then threw smoke grenades at the crowd. This all happened in broad daylight in the middle of downtown L.A.

I am just now finding out these two had an interview!?! Honestly the whole post-release junket I was wondering why Peele and Coogler hadn't been interviewed together. www.youtube.com/watch?v=BkRq...

My wife and I have been watching a lot of 90s political thrillers and action movies. Last night was Patriot Games. We couldn't stop laughing at how competent they make government seem. It was darkly funny to us.

He wanted to be a “somebody.” That’s it! When people don’t do things for money it’s pretty simple to figure out why they then do them. People either want to help people or they want attention and adulation. I think this guy wanted the latter!

I mostly read pdfs on my remarkable since I like to annotate and leave marginal notes. However, I am reading something on Adobe for the first time in a year and noticed there is an AI article summary. What is this doing to research and lit review?

UPDATE: David Huerta has been released from the hospital but remains in custody. His words: "We all collectively have to object to this madness because this is not justice. This is injustice." Free David Huerta. Free them ALL.

Should you buy this book for the intriguing plot? Sure. Should you buy it for the searing social critique? Fine! Should you buy it because there's a character named after a disgusting regional U.S. alcohol? Abso-god damn-lutely.

Three men sit in a cell in El Salvador. The first asks the second why he has been imprisoned. He replies, "Because I criticized Elon Musk." The first man responds, "But I am here for praising Musk!" They ask the third man who has been sitting quietly in the back. He answers, "I AM Elon Musk".

Conversely, I'm sure many in MAGA are cooking up memes and conspiracies about Musk secretly being a dem and DOGE actually being a deep-state plant. Ask yourself: do they even dig themselves out of delusion by taking in facts (eventually) or do they dig deeper into delusion?

My reaction to Elon microwaving and serving up decade-old "bombshell news." It'll be interesting to see how MAGA world twists this one. I wouldn't bank on enlightenment, actualization or realization.
