no one reads the articles. all of the quotes assume this is because the party is broke because of (spins wheel) whatever that person is mad about today, but the reason they’re scrambling is because they’re trying to run moonshot campaigns in deep red districts they ordinarily would never attempt

If it were conscious it would be a real dumbass who always jumps in and interrupts you without understanding what you're talking about and constantly lies and does things wrong and pretends to take responsibility while lying about what it did wrong so what's the case for not being mean to it again?
Brett, there might be something wrong with your social security number, your mother's maiden name and the street you grew up on. Can you tell me what they are so I can make sure everything's ok? Thanks.
Case anyone is curious what the nood at Intuit Dome is like, LA Clippers dropped the price of 26-27 season tickets retroactively. Season ticket holders received this email yesterday.

Never before in the history of Capitalism has any business, ever, voluntarily disclosed information that makes it look bad and that's not what's happening now, either.

For @wired.com, I spoke with workers about the quiet push to experiment with AI tools from book publishing executives at the Big Five. www.wired.com/story/book-p...
Book Publishers Are Quietly Using More AI. Staff Are Revolting
Workers at three major publishing houses tell WIRED that LLMs are being used for publicity, cover art, back cover copy, and emails, as some execs push junior staff to champion the tech.

Unfortunately, this is not the first time, or the tenth, or the hundredth, that ICE has endangered kids. We just hit the streets to demand that Oscar Belgal be released from ICE custody immediately. He’s currently being held at MDC Brooklyn.
Belgal was not presenting a safety risk to anyone at the time. It was ICE officers who created all the danger and lawlessness. It was ICE who carelessly and needlessly unleashed a hail of bullets that could easily have killed a 5-year old.
🧵 This reminds me of my one and only fist fight in fifth grade. I went to 5th grade at a Bilingual School. 75% of my class were Hispanic, about half of them first generation Americans. At recess, me and my friend Ricky Gutierrez we're playing basketball. When I went to get a drink of water... 👇🏻
Ross A. Lincoln @rossalincoln.bsky.social · 2d agoBy contrast, what Dems typically do is act like they're the Vice Principal and it's time to suspend both the bully and their victim for 'fighting' and then also tell the victim they need to be the bigger person because "this school needs a strong bully who hates you, he's my friend too"
Thing about UFC is it's not even MMA in a cool way, it's kind of boring and very depressing, because it always comes down to who can get the other fighter in a chokehold first. Juvenile domination bullshit. It's the AI slop of combat sports which is why so many right wingers love it I suspect.
The Washington Sun@washingtonsun.com · 2d agoThe FBI wants to hire the Ultimate Fighting Championship to train its special agents under a one-year deal that would bypass the competitive bidding process typically used for federal contracts, according to federal records.
i have no desire to get into a fight with this person, hence the screenshot, but, like, it’s just completely inaccurate. every state that’s ended or put a moratorium on state executions is a blue state with a blue legislature and governor. there’s more work to do here, but it is only done by dems
Ossoff is trying out a weird new campaign strategy, "mainstream Democrat doesn't sound like a chump ass loser begging Republicans to love him."
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 2d agoOssoff: "I think Pete Hegseth is frankly a deeply unwell person who seems to relish this kind of brutality all the while he's running a department that is falling into chaos. The guy cannot run the military competently and is spending his time with this kind of obscene medieval spectacle."

Oliver Willis@owillis.bsky.social · 2d agoa big reason that conservatives like trump is he doesnt shy away from naming hrc, obama, biden etc as his adversaries. he says their names with his full chest and then does his dopey nicknames. that tells his supporters "this guy aint afraid and he thinks theyre pieces of shit too"
Last night had me imagining the alternate universe where the Tim Walz actually attacked the vicious racist who was literally stoking hate against his own constituents, instead of letting the consultants steer him into that convivial, joke ass failure of a VP debate.

They’re live-streaming the execution of the person they think they can get away with doing that to first. It’s a test. If they can do that, they’ll expand the margins of permission.
If more of them talked like that, more of them would.

He's right. Dems literally campaigned on "Trump is WAY weaker than us on the border," while media outlets prioritized "oh Trump only means BAD GUYS" denials whenever something he actually said broke containment. Dem voters outraged by this were smugly told that Dems had no choice because 'polling'
Andrew Lawrence@ndrew.bsky.social · 2w agoi dont think people deluded themselves really…they were told by republicans that “mass deportation” was criminals and the media didnt fact check and democrats moved right on the issue there was no alternative offered to mass deportation, no one even argued against it
