WIRED@wired.com · 2h agoOver the last nine months, Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta has run dozens of paid ads that include explicit AI-generated child sexual abuse material (CSAM) and images of minors alongside sexually suggestive statements, according to details of the ads shared with WIRED.
Meta has made it repeatedly clear that one of their growth strategies is sexualizing kids. Mark Zuckerberg and his leadership team deserve to face personal liability for this, and the company deserves sanctions up to and including corporate dissolution

I’ve been saying this repeatedly. Trump helped end the uprising against the Iranian regime. People were protesting. America ended that.
MM@oneeyeonthereich.bsky.social · 1h agoIt's almost like this whole thing was orchestrated. Like when a boxer goes into a fight to throw the fight. Remember, Iran were the first people to start dropping Epstein Files.... Long before the Epstein Estate or Trump Admin did. Russia & Chinas ally, Iran. Trump is a BRICS Asset.
Folding like a cheap umbrella? The US has removed Iran-related sanctions, according to the US Treasury's website, Reuters reports.

“Affordability Only” messaging is also setting up future Dems for failure when they cannot fix what Covid and MAGA Republicans broke.
Circumspectral@catpushmike.bsky.social · yesterdayThis “affordability message” they keep hiding behind, what is it exactly beyond slogans? I keep hearing them say how no one should get distracted, but I still haven’t read a concrete proposal to make the lives of workers a little easier. Example # 3,467 of what they really think of their voters.
It seems more and more the Dem's plan, whenever they stumble into a position where they hold any actual leverage or power, is to say "we'll step aside so we can deploy our master strike when they least expect it!" and then the ingenious plan is a strongly worded letter from 30% of the House dems.
I don't get it. Why? Republicans would never do anything like this. They'd burn it all down and blame Dems. Are they scared that voters are not paying attention and they don't want to go into an election with the Government shut down? So? Republicans control both chambers and the WH. Blame them!
This behavior makes me understand why Dem primary voters are looking left for new leaders. I wish I could say they have their eyes on the ball here. But they don’t either. www.offmessage.net/p/senate-dem...
Beyond funding election subversion (and helping Collins in her election) there’s nothing in here for, e.g. blue state disaster victims whom Trump has abandoned. Patty Murray, who negotiated the agreement represents Washington state… www.offmessage.net/p/senate-dem...
I was appalled (though not surprised) when I learned Sunday that Senate Dems intend to help Republicans fund the government through the election, with one minimal concession that has nothing to do with election subversion or ongoing Trump theft of federal dollars from blue states. And I remain so.
Senate Democrats Dodge Last Pre-Election Opportunity To Fight Trump
They won't take a big stand to protect the election, or resist Trump's broader lawlessness, before the midterms.

All the same reasons they should have withheld their votes for past budgets remain operative. But this surrender is even worse. www.offmessage.net/p/senate-dem...
Amazing how people talk up Biden and Democrats as if any of their shit matters in a second Trump Presidency. Nothing mattered. It was all a waste and they fucked us.
Your Auntie Grizelda@auntie-grizelda.bsky.social · 2h agoPLENTY was done during the too-few Biden years. He was productive as hell and actually helped people. Not to mention pulling the US, and its economy, back from the brink of Trumpian disaster.
They won't ever vote in reforms to rein in their own power. For decades, it's been a big finger-pointing shell game to the voters. Look at Trump 1 admin. although they knew there was much needed reforms after his first debacle...absolutely NOTHING was done during Biden years. And here we are.
The problem is, even if there is a process, it relies on people being transparent and the senate enforcing the rules. And that is clearly not going to happen in this regime.
noted this in morning piece. like any winning candidate in a rough primary, AES needs to coalesce Ds behind him. Involves outreach, etc. But one of the best ways to consolidate Democrats is to land punches against Republicans. Not just going on the attack but showing that your punches are landing.

I'm rankled by public officials who mock people's appearances. It's especially odd to see JD Vance mocking anybody because of their weight. (A friend puts it this way: "JD pulling the GLP ladder up behind him.")
