Most LLM-based Chatbots are designed to tell you things you're more likely to accept. So if you're in the middle of— or even just susceptible to— crisis, they absolutely can & often will Affirm That Headspace. And this has been shown w/ depression, schizoaffective syndromes, & self-harm ideation…

"DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin dismissed any photo evidence of the incident in the parking lot, saying any photos were from a criminal arrest earlier this year. However, McLaughlin’s statement appears to have been copied and pasted from a different press inquiry."

there's been a fair amount of commentary on this but i think a big thing that Cuban et al. think but don't want to say (because it's embarrassing) is that they don't like that they're treated like everyone else here and that no one really cares who they are. they suck at posting and are facing that

Just so we are all clear This is the same camp that Ras J Baraka was arrested at and LaMonica McIver caught a FEDERAL charge for investigating because they did not believe the conditions were humane So the two Black legislators who actually did something ENTIRELY correct

It's weird to me how Kamen Rider Kuuga and Persona 5 Royal have the exact same ending: Two men punching the crap out of each other on a ledge after a big special effects battle.

I do some commercial voice work in Canada and while I'm not the same level or same ballpark as these guys..let me tell you a secret...you'd be surprised how little we actually make. Lets say I don't make a lot for a 30 second spot, even if it takes me like 20+ takes,etc, I get paid very little

I'm reading terrible 90s Iron Man comics again & I'm a big fan of this page, where Iron Man begins a sentence in his inner monologue but finishes it out loud, so from the villain's perspective it just looks like he's randomly exclaiming "IRON MAN IN YOUR FACE!"

As I just flagged, this has been replaced with something which is arguably worse; requiring that basically every plaintiff seeking a preliminary injunction against the federal government pay millions or billions of dollars in "security" to pay for "costs" to the federal government if they later win.

Yes. According to Army protocol, congressional staff are VIP Code 5, with a rank equivalent to a two-star general/admiral. Members of Congress are of course significantly higher. I have never seen USCP, FPS, or any other federal LEO treat any Member with anywhere near this disrespect and violence.

The most important lesson about having friends that I have learned as an adult is that your friends will be into weird shit that you're not into, and that's just part and parcel of being an adult. If its all consenting adults, you don't need to give a damn. Folks can just be weird. It's cool.

I think Republicans really need to understand that if people are denied relief through the legal system, they will find other ways to seek justice, and historically those ways end up being quite violent

It's a truly jarring split screen that Kristi Noem's goons attacking Sen Padilla happened at almost the exact same time as 16 Dem senators crossed lines to vote with the GOP to invoke cloture on the crypto bill, forfeiting any leverage. Dems need to act like an opposition.

My team and I at the Crowd Counting Consortium (@[email protected], Soha Hammam, & Chris Shay) have a new piece out: wagingnonviolence.org/2025/06/amer.... In it, we show that through May 2025, the size and scale of anti-Trump protests have dwarfed those in 2017. 🧵

Fun fact: in the 1960s, Civil Rights protestors were given literal classes on nonviolent protest; they didn't all just spontaneously know what to do. So, if you're planning on showing up, this weekend: read this comic. And if you're staying home, signal-boost it/link it around.
