If the US holds Venezuela, we will seize 17% of oil -- yesterday's technology. If China uses this precedent to take Taiwan, it will own 60% of semiconductors -- tomorrow's technology. See what happens when you elect evil & stupid at the same time?

The most “vote blue no matter who” people in my life, the most Defend Democrats-minded people I know as recently as the end of 2024 are now exclusively out for blood and demanding Schumer’s resignation and for Dems in Congress to do total obstruction. Its crazy how far from the base the party is

Co-signing this. Grok is out there making CSAM on request from pictures posted to the internet.

And if you posted pictures of your kids to Twitter, you LICENSED Grok to do that. Take those pics down NOW
Parents, if you didn't have a problem until now of not posting pics of your kids on public social media, now might be a good time to start (and maybe scrub what's there already).

I don’t want to hear the word bipartisan until the GOP — on an institutional level — calls Trump out for his violent lies. Because that’s what this is: violence.

This is the reason why counselors won’t work with couples when there’s violence in the relationship. 1/2

Small business districts around Seattle could benefit from chicanes like this (and/or raised crosswalks) to calm traffic and create a clear signal to drivers to slow down and watch for people. Beacon Ave, WS Junction, Greenwood, 15th Ave, Wallingford, all come immediately to mind. What do you think?

In a study following 23 million people age 18-59 (pretty young) for 4 years…despite the fact that the ones who got the COVID vaccine were overall older and sicker at baseline, they not only had 74% lower risk of dying from COVID than the unvaccinated but 25% lower risk of dying from any other cause!
