I expected this to be slightly more interesting. I really like the way the gentian plays with the mezcal but it's falling a bit flat.
I might try punching it up w/ Liber & Co ss & pineapple liquor.

Musk's employees are in top positions throughout the agencies of the executive branch. He's not gone, DOGE is not gone.
Everyone acts like Musk has been neutralized, cut off, and cast aside, when in fact he remains a huge risk to our country. We must not let him ride off into the sunset. He has to be held liable for the damage he’s done, the data he has stolen, and the elections he will continue to interfere with.

Note that all these chatbots are made by billionaire sex pests, who are desperately trying to make other people see humans the same way they do: inanimate objects to be used for one's own whims.

The people making these, openly say they see other people as NPC's.
The thing about these guys forming relationships with chatbots is that they will start treating actual women like the chatbots.

And when real women don't fawn, don't glaze them the way these digital yes men do, express opinions, they will view them as *defective* chatbots.

The foreign influence discourse has always confused me, because it's based in an assumption that the border protects us from bad people with bad ideas who are waiting just outside the border to harm us. What about bad people with bad ideas who were born inside the border?

Marjorie Taylor Greene came into Congress in 2021 worth about $700,000. She leaves five years later worth around $25,000,000. 😳 Congress is just a giant insider-trading scheme.

I don't have kids & I'm not education adjacent so I want to ask ppl who do or are; are "gifted & talented" & "upper track" programs still a thing? Are they controversial?

Those programs screw kids up & then those kids grow up to be people like Kristen Cinema & Curtis Yarvin.

Humans will NEVER colonize another planet. Never.

If we can’t even agree to do the minimum to keep Earth habitable, there’s no way in hell we’ll cooperate to make another planet habitable.

Your periodic reminder that @radiofreetom.bsky.social who many of you like to follow, and who writes for the Atlantic, was pushing the great replacement theory before Trump and has never apologized for it. He's part of what got us here.

We're primarying John Fetterman.

Last week, Fetterman again sold out working Pennsylvanians. He was the deciding vote for a Republican budget bill that will strip healthcare from over 400,000 Pennsylvanians.

We deserve real working class leadership in the Senate, not a Trump-enabling Democrat.

Is there any more pitiful, self aggrandising description someone can make of themselves than 'entrepreneur'? What even is that, it's not a real thing, it shouldn't exist. It's like telling people you've decided to become a vampire but instead of getting cool powers you're just a massive prick.

Love how they've invented a type of psychotherapist for the rich that treats having a conscience as something to be cured.
The fear of not having enough money is familiar. But there’s a quieter struggle at the top: feeling uncomfortable with having too much, says money psychotherapist Vicky Reynal ⬇️
