Incidentally I just read the account of a holocaust survivor of the camps (man’s search for meaning) and what most sticks with me is that they only executed 12 people at Nuremberg

This is absolutely true. And also the least self-aware article ever, from the publication that brought you “The Gaza Famine Myth.”

What do you think it’s like to watch your child starve to death?

The first time one of your children is seriously ill or hurt, you pass through a portal into a new world. You learn to recognize fear in its purest form—hot and metallic, writes Abigail Shrier for The Free Press.

I'm just one person, and my programming needs are somewhat unusual (building various kinds of statistical forecasting models). But I'm just not seeing the consistent productivity gains from LLMs that I would have expected if you'd asked me 6 months ago.

"The Law is Fake, we made it up, and we continue to."

Yes, in a philosophical sense, but not moment to moment as suits the President.

no one sympathizes with how much psychic pain the administration is causing me, specifically, as a lawyer. i was trained for decades to believe facts were something you could engage in a process of finding, and that rights were more or less established at a bare minimum level. think of the lawyers!!

you can tell these whiny losers are not having fun even as they finally get the mendacious anti-constitutional government attempting to quell their political enemies they've always wanted because they're frustrated that people still hate their guts about it and i think that's beautiful

@MrAndyNgo
Now that the local and national press have started to cover the Portland ICE area round-the-clock in reaction to the President, Antifa have devised a plan where they are encouraging one another to come in animal costumes.

The costumes serve the function of masking the violent extremism to make the direct action appear like a family-friendly gathering on camera, and to whitewash the past ultraviolence.

In 2019, Antifa devised a similar plot by giving out free "milkshakes" at a protest. But they couldn't contain their bloodthirst and nearly killed me when they saw me. In 2020, they mobilized a fake "Wall of Moms" where female Antifa supporters and members wore yellow shirts to act as human body shields while violent rioters behind them hurled projectile weapons.

they would probably prefer ice cause less chaos and keep it in their pants more but what it is truly rankling them is trump telling them what to do and saying they can't keep order. i specifically recall pritzker saying he welcomes federal law enforcement coming in and helping them get bad guys

jeff com-BOO-ters @helldude.bsky.social · 11h

i was under the impression that pritzker and newsom aren't freaking out about the ice enforcement activity they're freaking out about the troops coming in to undermine them. the message has always been, more or less, "our police are perfectly capable of keeping ice safe while they do their jobs"

it's why i think constantly hollering at people about the lesser of two evils is participating in a race to the bottom. i think its fine to expect that politicians have an interest in serving you, an interest in governance, and a genuine and enthusiastic desire to make things better for everyone
