Portland, Oregon and sloe gin fizz. She/her.
No Tim, people don't need to remain calm. You need to go arrest the fucking murderer.
My public safety team is working to gather information on an ICE related shooting this morning.

We will share information as we learn more. In the meantime, I ask folks to remain calm.

The video absolutely shows that ICE murdered someone today. We will not be gaslit in to believing it was self defense. They need to be arrested immediately.

It appears ICE murdered someone in cold blood today and their plan is — per usual — to create a fog of lies so the killer does not face justice. We simply can't let that happen. The shooter has to be arrested and so does Bovino. They can't just kill people on the street.

I mean, if the next administration actually is willing to hold these people accountable for anything. We haven't actually seen that from the Democratic Party so far.
No US oil company should risk investing in Venezuela. Companies that take part in Trump's lawless takeover of Venezuela's resources should keep in mind that any American tax dollars they take to invest in a foreign country will be recovered by the next administration.

I think this is a really good point and goes along with what I say about the media reporting on right-wing controversies, which is that their official stance on literally anything the right does is "boys will be boys"
one takeaway from the grok noncon porn thing is that much of the media just isn't interested in an issue they can't pretend has two sides or that doesn't give them an opportunity to shit on the left. Also it would be uncomfortable to justify remaining on twitter after acknowledging it

30 years ago they were like we have to ban song lyrics for the children but it’s full steam ahead for the here’s how to do drugs until you die machine
“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’”

A Calif. teen trusted ChatGPT for drug advice. He died from an overdose.
"Who on earth gives that advice?"

30 years ago Eric Cantona kicked a nazi and was banned from football for the remainder of the season, possibly dashing United's hope for the title.

In 2021, he said about the incident:
'I have one regret. I would have loved to have kicked him even harder.'

Legend.

Hey @agdanrayfield.bsky.social and @tinakotek.bsky.social CSAM is illegal in Oregon, right? Feels like maybe you should do something about this, because we know the feds won't.
Elon Musk chatbot repeatedly making CSAM on demand should be one of the single biggest stories right now and it's effectively a collective shrug instead

Watch this activist get arrested *mid-interview* for speaking out against U.S. action in Venezuela.

For all that the media has spent years freaking out about what social media does to our brains, I don’t understand why there appears to be little effort to grapple with the fact that these chatbots are, for some not insignificant portion of the population, literally psychosis machines

There's significant evidence from state legislative term limits that they do, in fact, empower both lobbyists and state executive branches.

"Disagreeing" without offering any counter-evidence is just vibes.
I disagree with the suggestion that term limits would further empower lobbyists and therefore we shouldn't consider them as a viable path forward. The current system of federal elected officials who are financially incentivized to become insider traders until they choose to retire isn't working.

All my fucking tax dollars go towards murdering innocent people abroad. Never enough money for free college. Or free school lunch. Or to fix the goddamned roads and the crumbling bridges. Always enough for murder.

I am so livid.
