El-Sayed: "My commitment to Jewish safety is the same commitment that I have to the safety of my own daughters. Because if there is one question of political philosophy that ought to animate us all, it's what would we do if we treated all our kids like they were all of our kids?"

Did you see how Apple, Amazon Walmart and other big companies are refunding the billions of dollars they got back from the federal tariff settlement to their customers, who ultimately bore the cost of higher prices? Yea, me neither.

Awww….That idiot (aka Putain de Merde) in the White House missed the legal deadline for screwing up birthright citizenship. I liked the cartoon. I don’t care who boots him out of our country.

For those of you who are religious. Your gods see who and what you are. You cannot hide your hate and lies and continue taking their names in vain. You cannot buy your way into paradise. You cannot lie your way in either. Hypocrisy is a sin that will not be forgiven.

Since this is my only public-facing internet presence, here's my AI policy: I don't use AI for my writing. I don't use it for idea generation or editing. I don't use it for publicity. I have not in the past, and will not in the future. I have "no AI" statements in all the contracts that I sign.

"We do not and will not condone the deliberate use of commercialised LLM-based text/image extruders ("generative AI") by any of our members or affiliates. We condemn "AI" - and its apologists - in the strongest possible terms" If you're not saying this by now, you're saying the opposite

'We cannot run away from the fact that the human being, as a dignified human being, is defined by certain rights, that can be set down in non-abstract terms.' Our patron, the Nigerian humanist and author Wole Soyinka, on good and evil and the inherent dignity of every human being. Beautiful.
