Notice DOJ doesn't talk about its efforts to obtain state voter files anymore. They are 0-20 in those cases and today is the beginning of the quiet period -- states can no longer do systematic removals of names from the voter rolls. TLDR: We won!🥳

First few images of Vancouver at 1:45am because I’m jetlagged awake after sleeping 8 hours. Really enjoying the quaint “SF vibes” so far. O, Canada, you do not disappoint!

No need to read the article because us humans know what’s what. My opinion — AI will take all our jobs when customers can say exactly what they want. AI is a fascist tool to kill creative expression & instill surrender control. Use it motherfuckin’ sparingly, y’all.

Many companies stopped hiring entry-level employees, thinking AI agents could pick up the slack. They have since realized that humans are necessary to work alongside AI.

Justice is blind but our solidarity as a people shouldn’t be. Find your crew and if you can’t, speaker louder about what you stand for and others will join you. I stand for equality, fairness, and I speak up for those who haven’t found their own voice or can’t use it at this time. #fcknzs

Let’s be honest, fellow Reds. That second half last night had as much aggressive forward passing and excitement than most of our performances last season. Some of the kids looked better than good and a couple should maybe be starting this season. So excited for the season! #YNWA #LFC #LFCpreseason

Years ago an old student of mine who grew up as a little girl in WW2 wrote about her experience. I cleaned it up for her and typed it up so she could have it. THIS is why I’m so kindly antifascistic. Read this and help me make sure this shit never happens again. #fcknzs

Some memories from my youth during the last war in Stuttgart I was about 8 years old when war broke out. I was going to school in the lower class but for long because it wasn't possible to have school so we had to take a break. There was always a large, packed bag next to the door with all of our very important things in it, anything we would need if we had to take refuge in the cellar of the house if the bomb alert sounded. I screamed and my hands held the banister leading down the cellar very tightly, and my mother hurried with me the longer way to the official bunker down the street. The siren went off often, day and night. Most families were hurrying into the bunker, of course always with their luggage and all they could carry. My mother was alone with me - like other women - because all men were in the war. My parents had a hairdresser's shop. In the evenings when the shop was closed some special customers would visit us. They were Jewish women coming for a haircut. It was forbidden to service such people. I had to go to bed early in the evening because I shouldn't see the customers and the symbol they had on their clothes. It was a big Jewish star. One day, it was the last time they came to us, they said they would be sent away. This was her last journey to somewhere. They were sent to the gas chambers. One day the bomb alert sounded and my mother was running with me, the big luggage and the heavy hairdryer down the street and into the bunker. I only dragged our pillows with me. When we arrived at the bunker, hundreds of people were standing close to each other. No one had space inside and then the big thick door closed. It was very calm in the bunker-I think people were praying in this moment to God for help. Suddenly the first bombs started falling again and again for a long time. I will never forget the sound of those bombs for the rest of my life. First, a whistle and then the explosion with the air pressure. It was calm outside and the air raid was finish…

(3 drinks) sometimes the world is so magnificent that i will weep at the many simple beauties you encounter during a normal day (3.25 drinks) if you begin to think about it enemies are actually surrounding me and closing in. i am beset upon by evil on all sides.
