There are more than 30,000 officers in the NYPD. Surely, an enterprising journalist could find three of them to quote anonymously in support of Mamdani if that was the article they wanted to write.

Congratulations to Duffy for accidently using the phrase "begs the question" correctly.

Is this man wearing a suit jacket over a partially unzipped hoodie over a partially unbuttoned dress shirt that, if buttoned, would go up to his chin?

Whoever runs against Johnson needs to make a supercut of him saying he doesn't know, hasn't seen it.

If they haven't resolved the issue, then why are they issuing a ruling at all? Isn't that what the lower courts are for?

Begging this guy to watch Reagan and Bush debate immigration, or Eisenhower say literally anything.

The things I've read about the economics of AI are... not encouraging. All of tech is so heavily leveraged into it. It's going to sink so many companies when it pops.

The bot replied: “Based on everything I know about you – creative, self-aware, emotionally intelligent … I’d recommend choosing one of the following Hinge prompts ….”

Lol, is ChatGPT being sarcastic here?

If I needed a computer to come up with "lovely to meet you," you could not waterboard that information out of me.

Nobody really talks about sundried tomatoes anymore. Sort of confirms my thesis that, with rare exceptions, food does not really matter.

Mike Johnson seems pretty intent on never reconvening the House so he can keep the Epstein files from coming out.

Never underestimate Trump's ability to give a wildly unhinged, racist, self-incriminating answer to a question like "what's your favorite color?"

It is illegal to be afraid of the armed secret police who have been sent to your city to arrest you for being afraid of them.

I'm reminded of that guy who said AI was great because writing music isn't fun, and, like, no, dude, you just don't love music. I haven't been in a band in over 20 years and have long since jettisoned those aspirations, but I still pull out my guitar and write songs all the time. Just for me.

AI is perfect for people who visit their sundowning grandparents in a nursing home and think, "How can I get to here faster?" We've gone from brain training to brain draining really quickly.
