Because it wouldn't be a valid swearing-in, as only the Speaker or a Federal Judge can. The best bet would be to find an Arizona judge appointed by the Dems there.

I generally think he could win by ten or lose by ten, while Mills will perform near-exactly to the national mood. I know which I feel safer about right now.

Day 15: CAVE 🦇🙂

#SuperBatober #Inktober #inktober2025

SUPERBATOBER 15: CAVE -- Batgirl and Supergirl are in the Batcave! Along with Batman who is staring at his large computer screen with the words: "SMILE, BATMAN. STOP BEING SO GRUMPY." Batman is convinced this is Joker's doing. Supergirl is about to confess something else, at the franticness of Batgirl.

Who do YOU, my dear reader of this ALT tag, think is the culprit? Tune in next week! Same Bat channel. Same Bat website.

Daily bunny no.3108 will grow into a beautiful butterfly

A very small bunny munches on a leaf, like a bug or caterpillar. The leaf is the same size as the bunny, and the bunny is beneath a flower in someone's yard or garden. It is a warm autumn day

This is cool after the war on everything called “porn” by platforms and payment processors. A machine that stole all your words can generate and sell “erotica” but you can’t haaa

Matt Burgess (WIRED) @mattburgess1.bsky.social · 2d

Oh good, ChatGPT is getting "erotica for verified adults" later this year

We made ChatGPT pretty restrictive to make sure we were being careful with mental health issues. We realize this made it less useful/enjoyable to many users who had no mental health problems, but given the seriousness of the issue we wanted to get this right.

Now that we have been able to mitigate the serious mental health issues and have new tools, we are going to be able to safely relax the restrictions in most cases.

In a few weeks, we plan to put out a new version of ChatGPT that allows people to have a personality that behaves more like what people liked about 4o (we hope it will be better!). If you want your ChatGPT to respond in a very human-like way, or use a ton of emoji, or act like a friend, ChatGPT should do it (but only if you want it, not because we are usage-maxxing).

In December, as we roll out age-gating more fully and as part of our “treat adult users like adults” principle, we will allow even more, like erotica for verified adults.

They were calling for a unilateral ceasefire and for dismantling Israel altogether, days after October 7th. They tore down posters of hostages.

Sherrilyn Ifill @sifill.bsky.social · 2d

I can’t help but think today about how many young people were savaged on social media, branded as anti-semites and abandoned by their schools for daring to call for a ceasefire. I remember saying that it was the first time I can remember that calling for ceasefire was regarded as a hostile demand.

Daily bunny no.3107 doesn't need a kitchen

A bunny in the wilderness cooks a stir-fry over a portable stove. It is evening, and he's hung up a tarpaulin nearby for a campsite. A chipmunk and a raccoon wait eagerly for their food.

Maybe, but I've only experienced it personally with horror. 😜

Actually, one of my favorite sci-fi horror guys, Warren Fahy, fits the bill as well.

For every horror writer who makes it big in the mainstream bookstore market, there are ten as good or better that can only be found in paperback on niche/used bookstore shelves.

People don’t want to hear this but the principle consequence of making I-P an omnicause is the creation of a million new antisemites who, as a nice bonus, are unequipped to address any other issue sensibly.
