Same. I am so tired of avoiding it everywhere and avoiding the people who shill for it. It's like everywhere I go someone is running up to me like "I'M A GIANT HORNET RANCHER NOW! LOOK AT THIS! PUT IT IN YOUR HAND! EVERYONE IS DOING IT! IT'S A FUN AND EASY WAY TO CREATE A HUGE PAINFUL WELT!"

If someone on here, or Insta, or wherever, has changed your worldview, and they have a tip jar, maybe, like, hit it? I think the value of that work is really, really understated.

I refuse to give the NYT my eyeballs, so I can't speak to the specifics of this article. But any historians attempting to use AI for either writing or research should be run out of the field. AI is inherently unable to do anything we need it to do to understand and communicate history.

I saw a headline earlier this week from Entertainment Weekly of all things that said, "Doechii bashes Trump and ICE for protest response while accepting BET Award," and yeah, it frames Trump as the victim. Further, I would qualify Doechii's speech as being firm and clear-headed, not "bashing."

What if I threw a birthday parade and nobody showed up because they were across town in a park, screaming at the tops of their lungs about what a flaccid, pus-filled, weak little man-baby I was?

Trump thought he'd be watching news coverage of his stupid North Korean style military parade. He thought American would cheer him and his fascism. Instead tonight he's watching every city in America, every town, rise up against him. Happy Birthday, Asshole.

NOT. SWIM GOGGLES. Friends. Do not wear swim goggles at a protest. If you take a projectile to the face the force can pop your eyeball out of its socket. If you're going to invest in protest eyewear, use impact resistant safety goggles and tape the vents.

This. Every targeted strike elsewhere proves Israel's government wants to wipe Palestinians from the map and doesn't care if it kills its own people in the process.

Newsom needs to grow a pair and order the LAPD to arrest ICE agents.
