1. DHS surges 3,000 officers to Minneapolis without doing anywhere near enough prep first.
2. Hundreds of habeas cases overwhelm local courts.
3. Dozens of DOJ lawyers quit in disgust/anger.
4. The DOJ brings in JAGs to cover.
5. A JAG was just held in contempt and fined $500/day for ICE's failures.

In the context of OpenAI firing a female exec (for misandry!!!) who opposed creating an adult mode on ethical grounds, it sure looks like Talk Dirty to Me is going to be a paid feature.

It is astounding to think of the creativity that could be unlocked if all of that AI data center money went to supporting living artists and creators
I regularly see people wondering how it's possible that there are so many musicians and writers and film makers and artists from a tiny nation like Iceland.

And the answer is really simple: State funding for art education and artists. I literally get a salary from the government to write books.
I’m constantly astounded at the sheer level of artistic production coming out of Iceland. Novels, movies, music. Amazing.

If the SAVE Act passes the Senate, a new form of vote suppression (in addition to DV/stalker tool) just dropped.

Call your senators today.

BREAKING: I read the new version of the “Save America Act” (S. 1383) so u don’t have to. Here’s my summary. Point 1 is new. It requires that all 50 states send their voter rolls to the DHS to run thru DHS’s faulty “SAVE” voter purge program. Points 6 & 7 are new too. Tell ur Senators #NoOnSAVE 1/

Four years ago during the summer Olympics on the day that Simone Biles had stepped down, I was at an appointment with a former gymnast who was very excited to watch the coverage that evening and asked me to avoid spoilers. I was so happy I was wearing a mask, because I know my face did a thing.

REAL ID in states like Florida is already a poll tax that requires marriage/divorce certificates to prove name changes, but I guess that wasn't stopping enough women from voting.
It costs $130 + a $35 facility fee to obtain a passport and an extra $30 for a passport card. In California, fees for certified copies of vital records are between $18 and $31 each. How is the SAVE Act not a poll tax?

Also, if you know of any DHS/ICE activity at or near a church or house of worship, feel free to reach out — we're tracking them.

Ridiculous "Who do stories actually belong to?" framing.

The Guardian buried the lede six feet and fifty paragraphs under, because the answer to that question is NOT "your psychiatrist's husband."
His novel was praised for giving a voice to the victims of Algeria’s brutal civil war. But one woman has accused Kamel Daoud of having stolen her story – and the ensuing legal battle has become about much more than literary ethics.
‘I felt betrayed, naked’: did a prize-winning novelist steal a woman’s life story?

So I carved off a lean chunk of the steak before cooking it,

And made sure to set it on the edge of my plate, after I was done.

And then to look the other way. To let her steal it.

I got her her favorite thing, for her birthday -

Crime.

Mid nineties, someone I know very well, worked at a book store in Bellevue. About once a month, right before close, Gates would come in and buy porn, specifically a magazine called "Barely Legal," which featured just turned 18 year olds who looked a lot younger.

Btw, they checked ID on porn sales.

These are perfect for holding your phone so you can read while eating avocado toast. I'm sure there are other use cases, but that is my main one. LOL
