They are weaponizing our humanity. What effing ghouls.
Two female ICE agents popped the hood of their car and knocked on the door of a mechanic born in Mexico. He went out to help.

"93 per cent of residents say they're satisfied with library services."

Do you know how hard it is to get 93% of people to agree on anything, let alone for that thing to be satisfaction with a government service?

Libraries are freaking magic.

This day in history. 1478. George, Duke of Clarence was executed for treason on orders of his brother King Edward IV, drowned, they say, in a butt of malmsey wine. It seems wasteful but his other brother tried to trade his kingdom for a horse. Anyway, what a crew.

We've now been doing AI hype for 3-4 years and they're still faking the quality of the outputs of their video generators. A flagrant con job pulled on the internet and everyone who shared this video.
And after all that, the Pitt/Cruise AI fight scene appears to have been just digital BG and face replacement on multi-angle green screen reference videos of two real live human stuntees fighting.

In other words, like most AI hype — it was a con. www.shokunin.studio/blog/2026/2/...

reminds me of the recent admission from waymo that they have outsourced labor driving their cars. Great that everything is lies and tricks now

This is like the owner of a car dealership finding out about car theives and saying “Welp, I’m finished!”

Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise both have rights to their likenesses. This video violates their rights, and the machine that created was trained on stolen copyrighted material.
‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ writer Rhett Reese reacts to viral AI video of Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt fighting:

“I hate to say it. It’s likely over for us.”

damn, so you agree, an eviction moratorium would be of help (which obviously includes businesses renting/leasing space) huh?
Recovery will not happen overnight, but we will rebuild. We can all make an impact by continuing to shop local.

We will help stabilize these businesses, protect jobs, and ensure Minnesota’s economy rebounds.

Said it before and ill say it again- this administration’s sudden uptick in Catholics is a strategic maneuver to try and win over Catholics since they’ve run out of evangelicals to court, but they are being repeatedly out-maneuvered by one Catholic in particular.
NEW: White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, a Catholic, criticized Pope Leo XIV’s decision to decline President Trump’s invitation to join the proposed Gaza “Board of Peace.”

The pope’s top Middle East envoy condemned the initiative as a pay-to-play “colonialist operation.”

Thousands of institutions abandoned programs, ended or rewrote scholarships, closed down clubs and publications, all in pre-emptive compliance.

And you know why?

Mostly because they wanted to do it if they thought they could blame someone else for it.
BREAKING: The Department of Education has ended its directive that attempted to restrict diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts in schools nationwide.

this is why we don’t comply in advance.

relatedly, this is why i am irate at every children’s hospital that cancelled their gender affirming care programs without a fight. when you have the law and the facts on your side you especially have to fight back.
