This is a wild hack. a16z gave a million dollars to startup called Doublespeed. They use a phone farm to flood social media with AI generated influencers and ads.

Rob Reiner was one of the key people behind the effort to go to court to overturn California's anti-marriage equality Proposition 8 when it passed in 2008.

Working with Chad Griffin, they founded the American Foundation for Equal Rights and got Ted Olson and David Boies to team up to fight Prop 8.

i'm really enjoying vince gilligan causing a generational crash out over a well-written female television character for the second time with pluribus. no one has learned their lesson. a well-written woman literally causes everyone to lose their minds

Love to see an institution protect the vulnerable rather than grovel before this vile president.

When we've defeated these people, let's remember who did right, and celebrate them.

The Seattle court partially unsealed the case this week.

Remarkable how brutal the ruling against Trump on Abrego Garcia truly is: It details flagrant and malicious abuses of power all throughout. Trump and Stephen Miller were testing their ability to spread lawless state terror. But the court held the line. 1/

generational transphobe crashout in progress 🙏🏼
Graham Linehan has such little self-awareness he *really* doesn’t understand how totally unhinged he seems in his ‘woe is me’ batshit crazy ranting! 😬

He’s the ‘cautionary tale’ of what obsessive ‘gender critical’ transphobia leads to: no friends, no life, and spaghetti carbonara for one!

i genuinely wish i was in portland oregon so i could go and take a bite from the same overpass pastry as nebula winning author jeff vandermeer
Abandoned apple fritter or bear claw clinging to existence on the NE 21st Ave I-84 overpass for any who wish to partake. Took a bite. Delicious.
