Trump does not need you to believe that Renee Nicole Good rammed an ICE agent with her car and sent him to the hospital

What they want you to believe—what they NEED you to believe—is that if you don’t behave the way they want you to behave, they will fucking kill you

Don't forget, Canadian cops get away with shooting innocent people all the time. Including children.

ICE killed a Black man, Keith Porter, 7 days before Renee Good, and I hadn't heard about it until today. His vigils went unnoticed. His life came and gone and America forgot to blink.

Two Americas.

There is no other path forward but burning Twitter down to the ground. The rest of social media can burn with it too.
Every day, thousands of women and children are victimized by people on X using the Grok chatbot to generate scantily clad and naked photos of them.

It’s time for governments to take action. Elon Musk’s X should have been banned long ago. They don’t have an excuse to delay any longer.

it's unfortunate that we've ceded everything that uses machine learning to the "AI" category. A pen with a mic that connects to your phone and can do automatic translation, record and transcribe meetings is NOT the same thing as a chatbot tech bros think they can turn into God.

"She was the finance minister...that saw Canadians forced to give back money they needed...when the housing and food crises were forcing people into levels of poverty not really seen before in Canadian history. She oversaw the biggest increase between the rich and the poor in Canada."

the American opioid crisis is almost entirely the work of Purdue Pharmaceuticals and the Sackler family of murderous profiteers, but because Americans can't imagine anything being their fault, we've invaded Venezuela over it

I think our leaders have made it pretty clear that their role is to extract as much profit as possible at any cost. They treat the world like a chess match that scores wins for the corporate class. The spectrum of humanitarian care ranges from apathy to sadism. Naive beyond belief to think otherwise

Most delightful citation I've seen for a new appointment to the Order of Canada.

Generative AI is for losers. It’s so embarrassing to watch people debase real artists, the environment, and themselves for a sloppy, rip-off of a party trick.

We’re not running out of good ideas, but the tech fetishists who have no ideas other than “but I put a lot of money and emotion into this basket” always do, and their narcissism does not allow them to consider that their failed ideas suck, and the flop sweat is palpable.
