Another incident of federal agents pointing guns at Chicago area residents.

Tweet from @laura_n_rod

Text: A federal agent points a weapon at a woman who was recording them.

Jess, a U.S. citizen and member of a neighborhood patrol team that documents and shares ICE activity across the city, was filming when the incident occurred earlier today in the Berwyn area.

In all seriousness, the "LLMs are people and you're racist if you don't like them" shit is the natural endpoint of a consumerist society in which consuming and fandom are the only modes of identity-building many people understand. Finally, a product no one can tell you not to love.

Putting this disclaimer before an angry boy editorial calling for violence in the streets is so so so funny to me. Literally undermines the piece entirely.

Screenshot of a Daily Caller editorial calling for right wing violence in the streets. This is a screenshot from the top with part of the disclaimer and the opening sentences.

Disclaimer Fragment:

That said, the Daily Caller does not condone violence in any form, especially political violence. This column reflects the personal views of the author and does not represent the position of the Daily Caller. The examples outlined in the piece refer to hypothetical instances of self-defense, not political violence or extrajudicial mob action. We’ve spoken with the author, who reiterated that is his position, and explicitly rejects any incitement to violence.

Article Fragment:

Greetings, Dear Reader,

Today, I choose violence. Literally.

I know calls for violence are generally frowned upon. The issue is … I simply don’t care.

No words. I believed in Ryan. We moved to Oklahoma because he promised that my awful sons Enigmus Rex and Pance would be given handguns in kindergarten and then not be given any instruction on how to use them safely. I bought a shitty gray house in Tulsa because he promised they wouldn't be woke.

62. Death Promise. (Rifftrax.)

Apparently this is one of Rosen's favorite riffs, and it's not hard to see why. As a Z-grade martial-arts movie, this hits almost as well as Undefeatable did. Great choreography, but terrible camera quality, acting, story, dialogue, and even sound mixing. But-

This poster is amazing. Apparently Neal Adams drew it, and say what you will about how off-base his beliefs were about the Earth, the man made a great poster. Far better than this movie deserves.
