Something has been bothering me about these Ring camera ads ... They are now selling products with 4-frickin-K cameras in them, but they also want us to believe that it's the AI that makes their products better. Not every improvement is attributable to AI, arseholes. @edzitron.com

Can you believe these prices? I blame the guy who invented the word "groceries"

High beef prices will likely linger, even after cookout season ends
Consumers are seeing record-high prices at the meat counter as climate and import issues limit cattle supply.

The thing about this is ... If a Democrat were in this position, this would be the mildest headline in the news.

I mean, what if the WSJ had found this Drumpf/Epstein letter and reported on it in, say, September of last year?

If they don’t have the cars available, just let the fans, but only white males, vote for the winner.
All star games that go into extras should be settled by local battle rules. This is Atlanta, let them race Altimas on I-85 in a light rainstorm.

I had basically the same thought, so this perspective is valuable.
Short thread:
1) I agree this is gross
2) Virtually every jail in the United States operates the same way
3) Most every low security prison in the United States operates in the same way
(I was incarcerated in 160 person pole barns that look just like those pods)

Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz after touring "Alligator Alcatraz": "These detainees are living in cages. The pictures you've seen don't do it just. They are essentially packed into cages. 34 detainees per cage...they get their drinking water & they brush their teeth where they poop, in the same unit"

Emoluments? Impeachment?

I think this just described @ordinaryeffort.bsky.social ....
If we’re serious about solving male loneliness we will stop enabling horrible people and instead create fake YouTube video sets where groups of men can go in and take baseball quizzes and put their hands on other guys shoulders while saying “Eric Hinske, that felt so good damn! Maybe Raul Ibanez?”

Congress is back from recess after the weekend. Will anyone file articles of impeachment for expelling a U.S. citizen who is 4 years old and also has cancer.

Please don't say "incorrectly mark," say "alter federal records to reflect the lie that 6,100 mostly Latino immigrants are dead."
to incorrectly mark approximately 6,100 mostly Latino immigrants as dead in an attempt to pressure them to leave the country. Let this serve as a warning that labeling someone as dead when they are not is the falsification of government documents and it will lead to jail time.

Yes. More holds on nominees, hold on bills, whatever it takes. Even if it ultimately is destined to fail, but you can slow things down, DO SOMETHING. I am your constituent, @bluntrochester.senate.gov @coons.senate.gov
If your senator is breaking filibuster records, flying to El Salvador in defense of their constituents, or putting holds on every damned Trump nominee, celebrate them now. Show them they have support.
If your senator isn't doing any of that - ask them why not.

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

Cops always pull out the A-word if you so much as lightly brush against them. It's technically correct, but, also, fuck these guys.
“Our ICE officers are facing 300% increase in assaults while carrying out enforcement operations.”

They are terrorists. Terrorists with power.
Glad House Dems are demanding a full briefing—because immigration agents showed up at L.A. elementary schools, and DHS lied about it.
Watch the video. Hear the truth from L.A.’s superintendent. Then ask why the hell Homeland Security is targeting kids.
Don’t let this go!!!

Or, better yet, go around a few grocery stores, and record actual prices of some staples as well as popular selling items (sodas, for example). Then just come back once a month and report facts. And also whether shoppers agree.

At what point does one of these people decide it is more noble to go down fighting? A frightening potential for an innocent bystander to be severely hurt, or worse.
This is so fucked up. ICE agents in Massachusetts smashed the window of a car to grab a Guatemalan guy who was with his wife. They were waiting for their lawyer to arrive because he has a pending asylum case.

And his mother smelt of elderberries!
Leavitt: "Abrego Garcia was a foreign terrorist. He is an MS-13 gang member. He was engaged in human trafficking." (The White House hasn't provided evidence for any of these claims ... )

The real human traffickers are Drumpf, Steven Miller, Norm, Homan, Little Marco, etc. They are international kidnappers.
Got a new one today when the press secretary accused him of being a "human trafficker" just absolutely out of thin air!
Just so we’re clear, everybody calling Kilmar Abrego Garcia a “terrorist” or a “gang member” are lying, and they know they’re lying, and they repeat it for purposes of confusing people who don’t follow this stuff closely into accepting what was done to him.
