Ordinary people on both sides of the aisle want the Epstein Files released in their entirety. Elites on both sides of the aisle are praying they never get released.

So are we just teaching our kids they have to obey anyone with a mask and an unmarked car and an oddly-fitting vest and zip ties now and go with them? Is this where we’re at?

Lawyers who use artificial intelligence to cite non-existent cases can be held in contempt of court or even face criminal charges, London's High Court warned on Friday, in the latest example of generative AI leading lawyers astray.

"Harriet Tubman was bad because she was a Federal spy" is a level of tankie I didn't know even existed. Why did Harriet Tubman become a Federal spy, asshole? Who was she spying on?

Somewhere out there a flat earther is looking at the news, stirring horse paste into his raw milk, and crying

I never, ever want to hear again that women are too emotional to be leaders.

The scary part of today's news is that people actually believe that D-Day ended the War in Europe. D-Day began the year-long process that eventually ended the War. From June 1944 to March '45, there was heavy fighting, and the Allies didn't enter Germany until March 22, 1945. VE day was May 8, 1945.

The best thing about Al/LLMs is that they are pretty good at telling us why they're bad. I've asked Google Al (Gemini) why we shouldn't believe Al Overview (also by Google) its history related answers:

Jesuit magazine America: “In human terms, the Trump admin’s ‘big, beautiful bill’ is in fact very ugly. For the sake of our church and nation, I call upon my fellow bishops and the Catholic community nationwide to contact their elected officials and petition for its defeat.”

I have a feeling June 14th protesting is going to be the experimental lab 4 Trumps Martial Law plans. Whatever u do-do not engage w/ anyone who tries to incite a fight. There will be plants in the crowds to try to start fights. He needs violence to happen to justify his plan. Pls don't fall 4 it.

An explanation of the Kobo situation, but I'm personally glad I don't use the platform. The very mention of AI is a huge red flag for me, and I have a hard time trusting any company jumping onto this particular bandwagon to not cross that line into feeding my work into the AI meat grinder.
