Are people sleeping these days? I am not sleeping these days.

Wtf is a pro-vaccine group? Is that the same thing as an anti-completely avoidable mass sickness and death group?

As faith leaders have a crowd take a knee and pray outside the federal building, DHS officers raise their weapons at priests and National Guard members lineup with riot shields against them tonight in downtown L.A.

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving. There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later. They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

live from the huge spontaneous anti-ICE protest after the agency used military-style tactics during a series of raids in Los Angeles today.

ChatGPT is a lie generator wrapped in a weighted blanket. Read the below. It’s fascinating.

The enemy of my enemy is still a sieg-heiling Nazi.

Possibly the best thing I've read about ChatGPT yet. h/t @melaniemitchell.bsky.social amandaguinzburg.substack.com/p/diabolus-e...

Amazing account of ChatGPT's sycophancy and confabulation on steroids. amandaguinzburg.substack.com/p/diabolus-e...

This post should be read by every high school student who learns about the world via AI. It also should scare every professional who trusts AI with their credibility. LLMs are designed to be sycophantic; they don't have to. via @guinz.bsky.social amandaguinzburg.substack.com/p/diabolus-e...

Creativity? Truth? Engagement? If these words mean anything to you, then you MUST read this insanity.

This is one of the creepiest things I’ve ever read.

This ChatGPT exposé by @guinz.bsky.social is ABSOLUTELY TERRIFYING. (h/t @adambvary.bsky.social). amandaguinzburg.substack.com/p/diabolus-e...

not enough 'holy shit 😳' in the UNIVERSE

Surreal and insane and worth reading to the end.

Every high school and college teacher should share this with their students.

Frost: Tonight the people stealing are not folks with tattoos and hoodies but people wearing suits and ties and congressional pins sitting in the capitol now, not in some alley wrapped in darkness but the United States congress wrapped in the flag. It is disgusting and we will never forget this.

Cannot be said loudly or often enough: the bill House Rs are considering passing tomorrow would rip health insurance and food assistance from millions, leaving the poorest households worse off - to partially pay for tax cuts that most help the richest - while increasing the deficit by trillions.

Old enough to remember when the entire Garden erupted in chants of "CHERYL" just to fuck with Reggie Miller.

The difference between now and the last time I went through this level of emotional stress with the Knicks is I WAS YOUNG THEN

NY is headed for some quarter-century-old basketball PTSD.

If you want to completely destroy the morale of your base, keep sending unsolicited text messages to us at this rate and speed, Democrats. S T O P

No amount of shame is enough for these hourly horrors committed by officers in all of our name.

They're eating the radio and the radar.
