I'm so annoyed by the push now by so many damn companies to embrace and promote the use of generative AI. It's not just the issue of stealing the work of others who may have spent their lives to create something all their own, but also the catastrophic environmental impact. I just can't.

Republicans have been out to gut Social Security for years because it’s one of the most popular and successful programs ever created.
Those who claim to care about the debt while pushing for trillions in tax cuts for the rich and corporations don't really care about the debt.

now that RFK Jr is confirmed, the most useful things ablebodied people can do right now are to make sure they're up to date on their vaccines, wear a mask in crowded spaces, and encourage more remote work options.

What the fuck is wrong with our country? "Christian nation" my shiny white ass. This country's obsession with money over human decency is growing every day.
In preparation for today’s Super Bowl in New Orleans, state police forced over 100 homeless men and women onto buses under threat of arrest, dumping them in an unheated warehouse. Tents destroyed, belongings lost. Press are barred from the warehouse.
The price tag for this cruelty? $17.5 million

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it.
Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice.
But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word.
They aren’t firing for a reason.

Also on the list: Pride, Women's History Month, and National Disability Employment Awareness Month. This isn't just about race. It's about screwing over anyone who isn't straight, white, rich, and male. EVERYONE should be screaming.
Intelligence officials are starting to leak to me now too. Here’s a memo Defense Intelligence Agency personnel received instructing them to suspend observances including:

The Democratic Party needs to get out of this woman's way.
AOC: I don’t care what Elon Musk is doing behind the presidential seal, but in this country we hate Nazis. Kind of like a foundational defining thing. Two of the foundational things about American history is that we beat the confederates and we beat the Nazis.

Here's how the mind of a conspiracy theorist works: Graham Linehan once noticed that the people criticising him appeared to be quite eloquent. But that would mean they were intelligent, and that couldn't be!? So, he came up with the theory that they were using "Grammarly" to appear intelligent. 1/

The inverted flag isn’t disrespect — it’s a distress signal from naval traditions, used to show grave danger to life or property.
With a lawless man set to take power after attempting to overthrow the government, America is in extreme danger.
