Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 2d agoCornyn: "There's nothing we could do to rein in the president"
I was once walking my greyhounds in a wide open field, freshly cut grass. Nothing around us. I turned away from the pups for a moment, looked back when I felt the leash pull a bit, and saw one of them was holding a full baguette in her mouth. 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
G. Willow Wilson@gwillow.me · 6d agoWhat's your personal great white whale of an unsolved mystery? The thing you desperately hope is solved before you die because you need to know the answer? Mine is the Isabella Stewart Gardener Museum heist. Where the hell are the Rembrandts. I need the full story
Lightning-Palooza. Without a doubt, the craziest lightning image I've ever captured. This is one image, not those ridiculous composite images you see too often. Captured on this day in Chicago three years ago.
In the era of Donald Trump, if you are "politically homeless" it's because you are an idiot.
Imagine if Republicans had even half the balls of E. Jean Carroll, Stormy Daniels, Christine Blasey Ford, Anita Hill, or the Epstein survivors.
This is actually the specific shape of corporate workplace disaster I’ve been waiting for. The era of safely typing anything is probably over.
Katie Drummond@katie-drummond.bsky.social · last mo.NEW: Insane screwup inside Meta. The company exposed worker keystroke data that was being used to train AI — making it potentially accessible to anyone at the company. The data included personnel and performance info, private convos, full transcriptions…imagine your coworkers seeing all of that.
youre not going to believe this but the dumb assholes we put in charge have fucked everything up
My oldest’s academic performance this school year garnered a form letter from the Orange Pedophile-in-Chief, whose printed signature is almost as big as the congratulatory content it taints.
AOC: This is what drinking water in Georgia looks like after Meta began data center construction in the community.
virginia voters should call their delegates and senators and demand that they ignore this illegitimate ruling
i am tired of having to listen to dumb assholes just because they have a lot of money
Intense Double Rainbow over Sears Tower on Monday evening in Chicago.
Teachers: "Please help us get AI out of schools, it's ruining education!" Students: "Please don't make us use AI, it's ruining our lives!" Politicians: "We hear you and we want to help you harness the power of AI." #NihilismAndTechnology
Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.gov · 3mo agoAI is reshaping industries and our economy, and it’s crucial that young people and our workforce are equipped to succeed in this landscape. Proud to introduce a bipartisan bill with Sen. Rounds to ensure students and educators have the resources they need to harness the power of AI.
Happy May Day from Chicago. There's a lot of events planned around the city today; right now interfaith leaders are gathering with activists outside 1 S. Dearborn Street, the Chicago HQ of Highlands REIT, a real estate investment firm planning to lease a vacant jail in Colorado to ICE.
When it all feels too heavy, put it down for a while. Do not let it break you, or turn you into the thing you despise. We’ve been fighting this madness for a while. It’s ok to feel weary. Do not spiral into despair. Hang tough. We’re in it together. We’ll get through it. Together.
Fractures Emerge Between GOP’s Pro-Pedophilia, Extremely Pro-Pedophilia Wings

Struggling shoe retailer Allbirds makes bizarre pivot from shoes to AI, stock explodes more than 400%

I suspect the Pope sounds "woke" to many Christian conservatives because the US is steeped in prosperity theology, where the point of worship is to deliver health and wealth to believers. Thus, "feed the hungry" and "show mercy for the poor" sounds needlessly political and "woke."
Viktor Orban has conceded the election. The opposition is on course for landslide win. Orban was favored by both Trump and Putin. JD Vance campaigned for him. Trump even dangled financial incentives. The people had the last word. It was a hell no to more fascism. It’s our turn now.
he’s playing 4 dimensional chess. he’s take the pieces and sticking them up his nose. he’s eating the board. he’s setting the room on fire while he’s inside. he’s drawing something on the wall in his own poop. it’s a giraffe. underneath he’s writing the word elephant. it’s spelled wrong.
