I don’t like these articles saying “we” were soft and complacent after Jan. 6. It’s reminiscent of “everyone thought Saddam had WMDs” in that it tries to share recrimination evenly when many of us were shouting to the rafters in both cases.

God this is like Musk renaming Twitter to X all over again

Office has existed as a brand since BEFORE I WAS ALIVE. It is the single most ubiquitous work-oriented suite of programs in the world and has been for decades.

Yeah, throw it away for the AI app everyone hates.
Microsoft is so fucking stupid.

Microsoft renamed Microsoft Office to Microsoft 365 Copilot App

I'm not joking

One guy tried, unsuccessfully, to blow up a plane with a bomb in his sneakers, and everybody had to take off their shoes at the airport for the next 20 years.

Chatbots have a collective body count equal to Richard "The Night Stalker" Ramirez, and they're trying to put them in schools.

“ChatGPT started coaching Sam on how to take drugs, recover from them and plan further binges. It gave him specific doses of illegal substances, and in one chat, it wrote, ‘Hell yes—let’s go full trippy mode’”

How long is the U.S. media going to continue to uncritically report the claim that RFK Jr. and his political appointees want to improve trust in public health while they are so obviously, inarguably undermining it?

It’s genuinely wild that the United States spent decades building an elaborate rules-based international order which de facto cemented its permanent status as the dominant global hegemon, sustained by ideology rather than might, and now is just blowing it all up for literally no reason

Rep. Jayapal asked Jack Smith what the toll on our democracy would be if Trump were not held accountable for attempting to steal the 2020 election. Jack Smith: “Catastrophic.” So, basically what we’ve experienced since Jan. 20, 2025.

Walz: "We've got conspiracy theorists, right-wing YouTubers, breaking into our daycares, demanding access to our children. We've got the president demonizing our Somali neighbors and wrongfully confiscating funds that Minnesotans rely on. It's disgusting and it's dangerous."

“Common sense is common sense,” Schultz said. “I don’t need a report, one way or the other, to tell me that. I just firmly believe that minors should not be transitioning.”

This really gives the game away. As we've said, no amount of evidence would ever satisfy them. It's ideological.

Tonight, the President of the United States has launched an unconstitutional war of aggression, dooming another generation to spill their blood for oil, and lay waste to a sovereign nation.

I demand that Congress exercise its power, halt this conflict, and impeach this war criminal president.
