There are still people who say “Oh he won’t do THAT…” and he goes and does it. These people are the current leaders of the Democrats.

The fact there’s a man in our White House who constantly expresses his hatred for half of the country and makes clear his desire to strip away programs supported by Democrats should tell millions & millions why they need to be a part of the No Kings protest if they still believe in America.

Someone called the Bengals/Steelers game this Thursday 'The Icy Hot Bowl' and that nails it perfectly.

It's come to the point at work where people are stealing pens... that I now refuse to put out any Sharpies. My boss called me out on it and I said in reply "Sure, if you want to keep wasting money because people keep stealing the most expensive ones, I'll gladly put them out."

That solved it.

The Portland Frog army has now infiltrated Tulsa, OK and they’ve made an unlikely alliance with the T-Rex infantry and Sharks on Hoverboards mercenary forces.

This is truly terrifying.

If any other person did this, it'd be a days-long controversy, But since it's *him* it'll be forgotten about tomorrow because something dumber will happen. As usual.

A tale as old as time: Guy uploads his entire stash of 187,000 pornographic images to a Department of Energy network so he can train an AI to "make better 'robot pornography,'" gets caught, gripes that the DOE (which is charged with maintaining nuclear secrets) is "spying on him a little too much."

Man Stores AI-Generated Robot Porn on His Government Computer, Loses Access to Nuclear Secrets

For us movie-loving Gen X kids, Drew Struzan’s art was always a promise of some amazing and cool adventures, coming soon to a multiplex near us. He was one of the folks who helped define the 80s and 90s blockbuster. RIP, sir.

It’s a day off, but I had to get my hair cut today because it’s been far too long since it was last done. And now, we slack for the rest of the day. I’m done adulting.

this is one of those situations where people could take a lot of their ideas from Sports Twitter. When OpenAI collapses I better see Altman's replies filled with links to job applications at T-Mobile stores like he's a Browns QB who just threw three picks
