Mallory McMorrow endorses Abdul El Sayed minutes after NBC call
Goodnight
It’s fucking gross to mock Cori Bush for "the Capitol steps with her Cheez-Its." She was sleeping outside the Capitol to pressure Congress and Biden to extend the COVID eviction moratorium after it expired, protecting millions of renters from eviction. Bush herself had experienced homelessness.
The role of ChatGPT in the accused FSU shooter’s case goes beyond providing tips, our investigation reveals. In the 12 months before his attack, he messaged with ChatGPT more than 6,600 times—including conversations revealing he was aggrieved, focused on extremist violence, and suicidal.

A year of chats reveals glaring red flags—and disturbing ChatGPT replies—from long before a rampage at Florida State University.

Distracting myself from waiting for primary results with more of Waid's Justice League! #nowreading #comicsky
we have spent more than 5x what China has spent on AI if strategically I wanted to crush a sovereign rival, convincing them to reorient their entire economy so that all growth comes from a technological dead end - or really just does not justify the investment - it would be pretty smart
I can keep two thoughts in my head at the same time: 1) that AI poses serious ethical and social questions that cannot be brushed aside in the name of "progress", and 2) that we can't simply cede leadership in AI development to China. Each can be true without invalidating the other.
Co-host of Charlie Kirk’s podcast whose book was blurbed by DJT, Jr and JD Vance. Don’t call them fascists though.
The biggest technological revolution of our lifetime and it has nothing to do with AI, crypto, metaverse, robots or any of the other massively hyped "tech" the media always talks about instead
Absolutely unbelievable how solar power has taken off worldwide during the Hormuz oil crisis. You don't have to hand it to him, but Trump may have done more to finally kick off a global civilization of effete librul solar users than anyone else in the West

“The fight isn’t left and right, it’s top & bottom”, or some variant thereof, is one of those things you have Ho say to be a good candidate because a lot of swing voters believe it, but in order to be a good politician you have to know it’s untrue
"the voters in my district prioritized a different issue" yea, we didn't support genocide
Dan Goldman is having an argument with Ro Khanna. Goldman is alluding to why he lost his primary, but isn’t saying it directly.
I think this is fundamentally wrong but in an interesting way I will need to write about sometime. The key is a) consumers do not choose what is produced, or how, they choose between what is produced. This is a crucial difference
I think my most genuinely unpopular take is that a widely held and genuine consumer preference for cheaper, lower-quality goods, not private equity, is driving the decline in quality of consumer goods like clothing and housewares.
It is pretty sad that so few people actually believe in open borders
I remember umichvoter from back in the pre-Elon days. He’s *shockingly* well connected in Michigan Politics, his reports had a reputation for being extremely reliable, & he was a McMorrow supporter iirc (so not hardcore pro-Abdul). If he’s this comfortable releasing it, I believe it’s legit.
This guy claims that Stevens' internal pollster told her today she has no pathway to victory on Tuesday
A lot of people in congress just are just kind of dumb and incurious.
Is Gillibrand on crack? Why was she telling donors, without a shred of evidence, that Mallory McMorrow is a DSA member???
As a Muslim I'd like it if a Democratic candidate for senate could be a bit more direct and condemn these kinds of racist comments?
The last thing Michigan and the country needs is another spineless corporate Democrat.
It was inevitable that reactionary centrists would turn against harm reduction and call for a return to mass incarceration
The Cities That Said Yes to Drugs
Policies that gave addicts clean needles and places to use drugs were intended to reduce harm. They created a “zombie apocalypse.”

NEW: Corporate media zero in signs of antisemitism on the left. Meanwhile, one of Rep. Haley Stevens's most powerful backers in her Senate race attends a Bible study that teaches that the Jews killed Jesus...
Stevens Backed by Dem Leader who Attends Antisemitic Bible Study
Michigan Senate primary coverage has focused on left-wing antisemitism while ignoring it on the right

sorry but “this candidate prioritizes [special interest group] over voters” is a pretty normal part of political messaging, and just declaring that it’s suddenly bigoted if the interest group in question is Israel isn’t tenable.
I’ve known @jeremymoss.bsky.social for 20 years. He’s one of the finest, most dedicated public servants Michigan has ever had. This is a disgustingly, blatantly antisemitic attack by one of his primary opponents.
Welp guess we know what we're talking about in tomorrow's Sunday Morning Outbreak News Livestream! (Plus Salmonelleggs, & ANOTHER botulism outbreak in baby formula that's somehow going under the radar. So obvs we gotta talk about… all that.) youtube.com/live/_mjPVY1...
Yep, Taylor Farms Uses Prison Labor (& Other Outbreak Updates)

The diarrhea lettuce company, Taylor Farms, uses slave labor contracted from the Arizona Dept. of Corrections. The backbreaking labor is often performed by imprisoned Mexican nationals who would be otherwise ineligble to work in the US. They are paid $1.50 an hour.
Yesterday the Labour Friends of Israel resurfaced from the dead and released a "new report" which urges the Andy Burnham government to not impose a comprehensive ban on trade with Israeli settlement goods and services because.......this would "become a de facto boycott of all of Israel". Oh really?
The reason she sides with Musk is because the anti-AI porn bill doesn't make exceptions for "satire." The bill DOES allow creation of nude images via non-AI programs like Photoshop. But that's not good enough for Lorenz. She desperately needs AI slop to make NUDE "satirical" images! Apparently.
33k people are cancelling me on Threads and I’ve been trending for 2 days straight bc I said that Minnesota’s AI nudification law is bad and has serious first amendment concerns, meaning xAI is actually right to try to get it overturned: www.bedrockprinciple.com/p/minnesotas...
christ if that’s not a metaphor for our times
I really hope this ongoing does well. Starting it off with a gimmick isn't a great sign. AND FIX THE GERRY PROBLEM DAMNIT
Dan Watters and Andrea Broccardo are tackling a new Spider-Woman ongoing series for Marvel, and it looks like Jessica Drew is... Carnage?
there is no good faith anti-trans sports lobby and never has been it’s been a cynical wedge issue from day one for a group of people looking to replace gay marriage as a cultural weapon none of them have ever cared about women, women’s sports, or even sports
enough of this shit
A very serious Rural Politico once told me "Dems have to go to farmer meetings! We gotta be where the people are!" I was in fact in a farmer meeting at that very moment! So I live-texted him the meeting. They were complaining that they want indentured workers that they don't have to pay or feed.
There would be more pushback if folks left of center were more serious about outreach. But folks aren't despite the fact that our system does give disproportionate power to rural areas. But instead of taking that as the rules of the game as it exists, and actually organizing, we complain about it.
