Since Trump's administration really seems to be trying to push the idea that antifa is an org, not simply being anti-fascist, I have a suggestion:
Switch out your black bloc's uniform for GOLD. Have members all dress in matching metallic gold outfits, same type they otherwise would be, just gold.

I have told too many people about my colleague the ornithologist, who caught a deer eating the heads off birds caught in a mist-net
deer are not vegetarians, one of my favorite fun facts
Aransas J. Hawthorne, Esq. has something to say.

Fani Willis is an excellent illustration of the concept that MOST Americans are super-deferential to prosecutors to the point of ignoring their bad behavior, so long as the prosecutors are going after someone the Americans in question don’t like.

The irony for me is how Musk bought Twitter with the clear intention of capturing & manipulating the press culture there — something many journalists reported on — and yet they stay there because each assumes they can’t be manipulated… while totally getting manipulated.
This is the correct take. Stewing in white supremacist propaganda is bad for your thinking. And if think you are so savvy that it won’t impact you, you are the exact kind of mark they are slowly converting (I’m looking at you, centrist pundits).
It’s really funny how a generation will roll its eyes at parents who watch Fox News but doesn’t see why being immersed in Twitter is having the same effect. Lots of serious people show up on Fox News too but that shouldn’t be your primary source on the news.

I was at the ER the night before Thanksgiving/early hours of Thanksgiving last year with a family member, and we overheard two doctors call that block of time "The Night of the Mandolines" due to the sheer number of sharps injuries during meal prep.

Happy Thanksgiving. A few years ago I baked a pecan pie in a nut-based crust and the local squirrels just about lost their damn minds trying to get into the house.

Part of the problem is people think what persuades them is logic and facts.
In reality, most people's opinions are shaped primarily what they perceive to be the views of the community they're in.
So if you hang out with Nazis all day, it starts to feel "normal."

The National Guard Shooting has been designated a terrorist attack.
Whomever is president at the time of a terrorist attack is always responsible for allowing it to occur.

Lemme see if I have this: the guy who shot National Guard troops, who never should have been in DC, worked for the CIA in Afghanistan and was approved to stay here by the Trump administration, which has gutted terrorism and refugee offices that might have stopped this. Just a clusterfuck of stupid.

Wishing the injured National Guard a full recovery. No one signs up to be used as political pawns.
Nov 20 - a judge ruled Trump’s deployment was illegal. The court blocked him from sending troops into the District, with a 21 day pause for appeal.
Bottom line: the Guard shouldn’t have been in DC.

Ever since writing a story years ago, I get marketing emails from a Texas ostrich meat distributor. And you know, I've grown to love the slightly plaintive quality they take on around Thanksgiving

Resist the self destruction
This is why OpenAI is selling so aggressively to education at all levels—they want to create entire generations of users incapable of reading, writing and thinking without ChatGPT to hold their hands
And teachers and professors should call this out for what it actually is

To bear out this rosy projection, HSBC assumes that OpenAI will become "as ubiquitous [...] as Microsoft 365" (345mm users worldwide) while bringing in 10x the number of users (3bn).

Hey everyone,
I hate asking again, but the movers we hired ripped my family off. Quoted us about $4k then extorted another almost $4k. I’m sick from overwork, will have to miss work to recover and we’re down a lot more than planned.

Apparently tits go hog-wild for fats, especially in winter. In fact, a lot of the birds at a suet feeder are potential brain-eaters, if they're hungry enough.

People in the U.S. need to be paying attention to what’s happening in the U.K., because it’s going hand in hand with what is happening in the U.S., the agitators at work on both sides of the pond are working hand in hand with each other, and both have similar goals of ethnic cleansing.

I'm all for responsible balloon hunting, but you can't deny that there is an alarming trend in declining wild balloon populations. If there weren't active efforts to breed them in captivity and reintroduce them into the wild, they'd probably be extinct by now.
