The lesson: this is what bipartisanship with fascists gets you. Fascist do not care about bipartisanship. If you pursue it with them, they will make a fool of you. There is only defiance and opposition. That’s all any decent people want from their leaders anyway. Those who won’t can gtfo.

just cannot emphasize enough here that the whole "actually inhaled steroids cure measles" illustrates how none of the antivax stuff is actually about big pharma, it's about virtue signaling to other narcissists about how much cleverer than doctors they are

Homeless workers now have to submit *proof of employment* to be allowed to sleep in their cars in one of the richest counties in the U.S. Welcome to America: people shivering overnight in subzero temperatures, steps from luxury ski resorts, for the privilege of keeping the local economy booming.

1. LLM-generated code tries to run code from online software packages. Which is normal but 2. The packages don’t exist. Which would normally cause an error but 3. Nefarious people have made malware under the package names that LLMs make up most often. So 4. Now the LLM code points to malware.

This is just life now. Oh you donated food to Nice Charity We Help Poor People Eat? Turns out they're anti-choice. Your toothpaste hates LGBT people. The car you bought ten years ago to save the environment is bringing about the fall of democracy. Eat Arby's. Maybe. Unless they did something too.

It's amazing that 4 congressional Dems voted to make it *illegal for married women to vote*, and the rest of the Dems didn't respond "ok yeah you are not allowed to call yourself a Democrat anymore, we're not going to help fundraise for you, just go fuck yourself"
