Don’t use AI to identify whether or not a plant is edible. Don’t use AI to generate a trail route. Don’t use AI to create a recipe. Don’t use AI for creative work (it turns your brain into mush!). Maybe, like, don’t use AI!!

It’s a failure of journalism to do shit like this. Donald Trump has said that something will happen “within two weeks” at least 5,000 times in the past decade with easily over 4,900 of those “deadlines” passing with no action.

“Any time, any time while I was a slave, if one minute’s freedom had been offered me, and I had been told I must die at the end of that minute, I would have taken it – just to stand one minute on God’s earth a free woman – I would.” Sharing 'Mum Bett' Elizabeth Freeman’s words on Juneteenth.

ICE arrested Job Garcia while he was running errands in LA. Job is a US citizen, a scholar, and a brilliant photographer. He’s also my friend. But none of that should determine his humanity. ICE must release Job Garcia immediately.

SCOOP: Trump’s tax bill includes a little-noticed line that spends $200 billion on a tax break that rewards private equity firms for taking over small businesses and then loading them up with debt, slashing employee pay, mass firing workers, and driving them into bankruptcy.

I think it should be a bigger story that the Senate is preparing to confirm five Trump judicial nominees whose answers to questions about the 2020 election are exactly what you would say if you were a “Trump only lost because of voter fraud” conspiracy theorist

The only reason Republicans have a reputation as "fiscal hawks" is that the press refuses to tell the public basic facts about what they do when they are in office.

Thanks for the reminder @janemunday.bsky.social. Every summer, I repost this article DROWNING DOES NOT LOOK LIKE DROWNING. To date, I know of FOUR kids who were saved after someone who'd clicked on the link learnt how to spot actual drowning. Take time to read and pass on. slate.com/technology/2...

UBI should be a dividend paid: From the land we all inherit (Land Value Tax) From the economy we all sustain (Value Added Tax) From the damage done to what we share. (Carbon Tax, etc.) #UBI is not welfare, it’s rightful compensation to citizens for our ownership of our nation

I see there are thousands of replies to JD Vance, and while I understand the impulse to dunk on this rotten piece of garbage, be aware that he will use comments at blue sky to attack the site and try to get it shut down, and also to harass selected individuals. Much better to just block the fucker.

This is some terrible headline writing that implies Black people (who I suspect are not confused about Juneteenth at all) are not Americans. Come on, dudes. You can do better.
