OMG, it gets worse... he just told the AI to use an MCP server he saw mentioned on Reddit... Let's just put keyloggers and credit card info skimmers in everything.

Bernie Sanders did in fact find out about the attack on Iran during his speech in Tulsa. This is that gut wrenching moment when he stopped his speech and announced Trump’s post then informed the audience that we are now at war with Iran. Sanders made clear it’s unconstitutional.

Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

Well, the Hitachi Pentium 166 laptop was a bust. No life, Corrosion across the mainboard. Always a bit sad when a piece of tech finds its end with me. The floppy drive is in good nic though, it will live on.

If Trump's constant attacking, rambling, and tweeting has proven anytning, it's that modern politics doesn't reward those who strategically "pick their spots." Continually dominating the news cycle is far more important.

I still can't get past the idea that people in America are now supposed to accept that this is a valid form of law enforcement and just assume it's fine when random dudes in groups with face-coverings, no ID, no warrant, & no uniform grab people off the street and force them into unmarked vehicles

See which of YOUR public lands congress wants to sell off to the rich www.wilderness.org/articles/med...

I'm sorry but the largest protest of my lifetime is not the 7th or 8th biggest news story in the country behind "what does Gen Z want from Instagram?" This shit is humiliating. Rearrange your layout to meet this moment. Omitting the thing happening in every American city is malpractice.

Holy shit. That was a the most "technically I'm obeying orders" parade I've ever seen.

A Democratic Mayor arrested. A Democratic Congresswoman indicted. A Democratic Senator tackled and detained. A Democratic State Representative killed. A Democratic State Representative in critical condition. We can all see where this is going.

Damn. Just heard that a Minnesota lawmaker, Melissa Hortman, was assassinated, and looked them up. She was on here--this is the last post she wrote

Fell behind on Andor, so am catching up. Watched Episode 9 this evening. You know. The wild one where they arrest a Senator after manufacturing a fake crisis that required the military to put down protestors. So unrealistic.

IF THE SITUATION WAS HOPELESS THEIR PROPAGANDA WOULD BE UNNECESSARY

The news is awful. Post a Godzilla.

I did my best to compile as many protest safety notes as possible into a one page foldout zine! Coincidentally…it seems the file has breached containment…like it’s available for anyone to print or hand out 👀⚖️ toonyart.com/s/PSZine.pdf

A great way for Senate Democrats to protest what’s going on is to not have almost 40% of the caucus keep voting to advance a money laundering bill.

I have two vintage laptops I want to repair, a battery pack that I need to spot weld together., and half a dozen other projects I’d like to work on. But I just don’t have the energy or focus. Fuck the world. Stop being bad so I can be productive.

If the feds’ objective is to “liberate” Los Angeles and California from its democratically elected leadership, then this not a peacekeeping mission but a program of invasion.

Just thinking Blue Brothers things.

M&Ms have come up with a limited edition "Alpha Male" version. They're all white, extra bitter, melt down when surrounded by other colored M&Ms, and have no nuts.

Protestors shown stopping more instances of looting of community businesses. It is also noted that the would be looters across multiple videos in different areas are wearing matching outfits. #3E

NEW: The board of the Fulbright Program has just resigned after accusing Trump aides of political interference. They say a State Dept. office under Rubio and Darren Beattie has cancelled scholarships to nearly 200 US professors and researchers. Story: www.nytimes.com/2025/06/11/u...

leftists: that thing you teach us in school to be terrified of is happening historians: that thing is definitely happening star wars: here is a beat-for-beat breakdown of how the thing happens, but with pew pew lasers. we know you watched it news outlets: these protesters are out of control

 "When we had the wildfires that devastated big chunks of our city, he did absolutely nothing. Now that we're in the middle of a non-emergency, send in the National Guard."

Protestors stop looters and save businesses in Los Angeles. US Media won’t show you this. “We don’t do that shit” #3E #stopICE

This guys got it locked down. "...we need to humanize faster than they can militarize..." Give this a watch. Sorry about it being tiktok, but it's kinda important. Found hope. Thanks @hankgreen.bsky.social

Let me straighten this shit out for you: The citizens of L.A. are protesting because masked men are kidnapping citizens and taking them to places with unknown conditions, without due process. The traitors protesting on January 6th were trying to overthrow the government. Not the fucking same.

We need to build some real social stigma around being afraid of cities. You don't have to like them or live there, but a politics built this strongly around watching TV and going "ewww" is embarrassing, and people should be embarrassed by it. It's like "fear of werewolves" being your top issue.

Let's not forget this. I couldn't agree more. Elon is not a good human being, at ALL.

this is incredibly illegal and the cops are out of control this guy should be gone from the force immediately and prosecuted, it’s all on camera

Reports and video show flash-bangs thrown into piles of debris just before a car caught fire, strongly suggesting it was law enforcement, not protesters, who sparked it. More details are coming. Don’t let them control the narrative. Thank you to everyone sharing footage, always record everything.

After jury selection, too. You can’t mention it during deliberations, either. This publication has some interesting ideas about how to approach it during the deliberation phase (PDF link). beyondcourts.org/sites/defaul...

A journalist was just suspended for telling the truth, at the behest of the people he was telling the truth about. This is fascist authoritarianism. This is ALL the red flags & sirens going off. Do you hear them? Do you care? Democracy & Freedom die when you can no longer speak truth to power.

FOR G-DS SAKE, @npr.org WHY ARE YOU GIVING FASCISTS LIKE STEVE BANNON A BIGGER PLATFORM Aren't enough of them-like Steven Miller-already causing enough damage to America
