A lawyer in a previous life, still scarred by the experience. Big fan of alttext, Oxford comma, and em dash. English is my second language; beware of Russian jokes. #AIPolice #Atheist #AutismAcceptance Madly in love with @numb.comfortab.ly

“Sandwich guy case” “Harvard clawed frog embryo smuggling case” “Olympic canoeist reflecting pool vandalism case” “James Comey seashells Instagram post case” New rule: If the case sounds like a Mad Libs story, it’s probably about to implode.

I work at a public library. People who want to use AI seem to have no trouble doing so. People who don't want to use AI have a harder time. I crowdsourced and then finalized this document "How to disable or avoid intrusive AI" and then gave it a short URL: notoai.org Please pass along if it's useful

An aircraft passenger oxygen mask: a drop down passenger mask with air bag and yellow plastic mouth and nose cover, oxygen tube has been cut; Demonstration model used by flight attendant crew for passenger instruction. Has text on the side indicating that it's non-functional.

Henry Ford was very much the Elon Musk of his era, acting as a famous, disruptive industrialist who reshaped transportation, dominated headlines, and courted intense public controversy. Henry Ford heavily influenced Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party.

If you’re watching Fauci’s testimony remember that science isn’t an ideology. It doesn’t lie. It evolves. COVID-19 was a once-in-a-century pandemic caused by a brand-new virus, recommendations changed because the evidence changed. That’s not deception. That’s how it works.

This whole Taylor farms thing and all the food being infected with parasites. It's actually a very good example of why these conglomerants and monopolies shouldn't exist. You shouldn't be able to operate under one name and own 30 brands that do the exact same thing

It truly is extraordinary to watch how any accusation of rape or sexual assault immediately is treated by our culture as an event requiring the protection, not of the victim's safety, but of the accused's reputation. Every accusation enters a workflow designed to negate the impact of the accusation.

I’m glad that the walls seem to be closing in on Andrew Tate, but it took criminal investigations across three countries, dozens of outspoken victims, and a hit TV show implying he drives boys to murder girls for this to happen—and he still hasn’t been convicted yet. This is why 98% get away with it

Unpopular opinion: fewer Republican votes in the Senate right now is a good thing, isn't it? Due to a 2024 Kentucky law, the Democratic Governor cannot appoint a temporary Democratic senator to fill the vacancy anyway. Also, it was a photo from the hospital.

Fact check: Ireland has not “switched on” this battery. Google and Energy Dome only announced the 23 MW/200 MWh CO₂ storage project in County Offaly in June 2026. It is planned to begin operating in 2028. The lithium-free technology is real; the viral caption is two years early.

Was at the dentist's office today. It was another channel, but still with Trump's face and voice. 😒 So I asked for classic rock. They turn on YouTube. The second song was from Kid Rock. 🙄 I called it "add insult to injury."

Had an appointment with my doctor yesterday. Walked into a room where FOX News was playing. As I was the only one in there at the time, I spotted the remote and did what any Constitution-loving American would do and changed the channel.

Clarence Thomas says the 14th Amendment should be read narrowly because it was written for formerly enslaved people. By that logic, the 2nd Amendment was written for muskets, not AR-15s. Funny how that kind of originalism only shows up when it's convenient.

All of these cases are basically litmus tests for any Dem nominee. Are immigrants Americans? Do trans Americans deserve human rights? Are corporations superhumans who get to spend endlessly on elections to put whoever they want into power? These are simple questions with simple answers.

What Trump is doing now — favoritism, nepotism, and cronyism — is what usually leads to the fall of despotic regimes. Unfortunately, this is a long process, especially when you're living through these times. How Democracies Defend Themselves Against Authoritarianism:
